You guys! Check out this razor I just got myself! It's pretty, it's pink, it comes with its own charging dock, and it can bring me to orgasm in five and a half minutes!
No. I know. I don't usually place razor-sharp blades near my clitoris either, but I just couldn't help myself this time around. You see...this razor is actually a (waterproof) vibrator in disguise!
Not only that, but it's also one of the few discreet vibrators out there that also functions as the object it's designed to look like.
After the jump, we explore this further, and I explain why it's okay to place sharp objects near your vajayjay, risk-free.
When I first received my Tinge razor in the mail, it came in a sleek, black box, and was packaged alongsize its charging base, power adapter, and a bottle of scented pleasure gel (a bit strong-smelling for my taste but, then again, I'm pretty attached to the lube I'm already using). I also got a good giggle out of the promotional materials included therein, which expressed the desire that I "never have a dull moment." (aaaaaaaaaahahahahahaha I love it.)
It was a pretty excellent presentation, and I was eager to jump right in and bring myself just a tinge of pleasure (down there). Unfortunately, the razor required charging overnigh, so I plugged in the base, popped on the razor and...um...twiddled my thumbs (actually, I used my other vibrator, just to tide me over).
After my Tinge was fully charged, I powered it up by pressing the up and down arrow buttons simultaneously. I was so startled by the loud, powerful buzzing that I nearly dropped the damn thing, and actually yelped out loud. It sort of reminded me of my very first clit vibe — the Waterdancer, a waterproof version of the Pocket Rocket — which sounded as if I was hiding a by-God lawnmower beneath my sheets.
Once I got over my scare, I got down to business. I was already impressed by the intensity of the vibration, and was looking forward to cycling through the different vibratory rhythms. By pressing the middle Tinge button, I was able to cycle through five different modes: constant (the speed on this one could be changed using the arrow buttons), skip tease (pulsate), rapid tease, escalate (roll low to full power), and roller coaster (roll low to full power then back down to low).
So far so good.
When I was done having my fun (constant was my personal favorite), I powered off the Tinge by pressing both arros buttons simultaneously again, and then placed it back on the charging base.
Now, at this point, you're probably skeptical that such a powerful personal massager could also function as a razor. Well, believe it:
[$125, Tinge]
Scary, huh? No need to worry, though. The Smart Cap covering the razor blade (of which there are two extras included) does not come off accidentally. When I first opened the package, I couldn't even figure out how to get the cap off at all! And as an added safety feature, vibration capabilities are deactivated as long as the Smart Cap is off (I actually tested this, by removing the Smart Cap while in mid-buzz; it immediately stopped vibrating. P.S. The razor was nowhere near my nether regions at this time).
Of course, if you happen to reach for the Tinge after dark and place it down below before turning it on...well, let's just say that I believe your Tinge should be stored — on its cradle — with the Smart Cap on at all times.
In case you were wondering (and I do try to be thorough, dear readers), I used the razor as well, during my morning shower, and while I wouldn't trade it for my Gillette Venus (I am a creature of habit, after all), it's definitely a razor, and does the job that razors typically do.
So there you have it. Wuld you use a vibrator with razorting capabilities?
