I wrote about old retro ads so I had to comment….I assume that this is a real ad. Yeah, it must be - because they are desperate to find some new gimmick for mascara. Very strange though. Whatever will they think of next?
Sorry, I mean I WRITE about old ads.
Oh, it’s real alright! And odd! I love your retro ads; so many of those seem lurking and sinister… 
Why does one’s mascara wand need to vibrate? Seems like an accident waiting to happen if you ask me.
“Hey there, Patchy! What’s going on? By the way, you never did tell me how you ended up with only one eye.”
“Well, you see, there was the vibrating mascara wand and it wiggled so much I couldn’t hold it properly. Before I knew it, I had punctured my eyeball and it was just one big damn mess. Do you like the sequins I added to my patch? I can change them out depending on my mood and the dress I’m wearing. Pretty cool, huh?”
Very good!!!
Sorry, still don’t get why you’d need a damn vibrating tool near your eye. 
I know… it’s… just odd.
Ads gone wild
Sometimes you just have to wonder what the advertising/marketing people are thinking. I mean, this ad I just found in my inbox is stunning in it’s undertones.
Frankly, the first thing thing that came to my mind: the über cheesy ads for ‘personal massagers’ that feature a model holding a bullet looking vibrator next to her face and smiling serenely. Like we don’t know what that’s all about.
The second thing? WTF? It looks like a bullet is going to take her eye out! A vibrating bullet! Again with the vibrating bullet! Is everything about sex? Wait… don’t answer that! LOL!
Sometimes you just want to sit back and peruse Brazil vacation packages because other stuff can get too complicated…
