New 'electric' mascara? anyone seen or tried it?

i read/heard that theres a new mascara coming out which vibrates.
can't rem. much detail, i think it uses a battery to vibrate and apply mascare 'well' !
was it L'oreal i think,.
sounds a great gimmick and prob. one of those fads but has anyone heard or seen it or tried it even. how much?

    There are 2 coming out that i have seen and they are both really expensive - I think one of the premium brand ones was approx £28 compared to £18 for the non vibrating one. You would still have to throw it away after 3 months so not very cost effective.

    for total moneysaving, put your mascara on when you have a hangover - cue one shaking mascara wand!

  • hmmm I'd be very wary. I rekon you would be seriously wasting your cash if you bought one.

    Can't beat YSL False Lash Effect mascara. Can be bought for a reasonable sum on ebay. :beer:

    I love the bourjois clubbing one, it is the only one that doesn't give me panda eyes and the bourjois longlasting liquid eyeliner is amazing. As much as I adore lancome and dior makeup the bourjois mascara beats them hands down
