...highlighting my vulva!?

My first thread, so please bear with me.

AIBU to ask what in the world is going on when there's a new product launching this Thursday to highlight vulvas (Not Volvos)!?

I think it's called PerfectV and it's certainly not for victory. Not for women anyway. I understand it's supposed to be some sort of beauty product that helps sort your V out after all the waxing, piercing, vajewelling, etc that goes on down there!

Is it healthy to highlight vulvas? I doubt it very much...

I've managed to live my whole life without 'pampering' my 'V', whatever that is, with a load of expensive rubbish. Oddly enough the lack of this sort of shit has never impacted one iota on my once, very healthy, sex life - I'm 68 now so it's gone off a bit now - and no one ever complain that my 'V' was lacking in beauty.

It was well washed and occasional it was trimmed so that it was neat in a bikini; all it ever needed really to keep it in tip top condition.

HoofWankingSpangleCunt · 25/07/2017 17:46

space witch that sounds unbearable. I'm sorry that is happening to you.

You can provide your man with a highlighted, or at least glittery cock, via this method: www.prettywomaninc.com

Be careful if you are asthmatic and using Passion Dust - there is a serious health warning Hmm

FUNM · 25/07/2017 18:03

Imagine explaining what induced your asthma attack to the paramedic and doctors lol

murree · 25/07/2017 19:23

OMG this thread is amazing... really cheering up my night at work!
Got to admit my OH is intrigued by the magicum capsules Hmm I have politely said I am more than happy to stick it up his japseye and give him some magicum!

FUNM · 25/07/2017 19:31

@muree it advises you to heat up the capsule first for optimum pleasure lol

Fizzygreenwater, fantastic post. Made me snort in a very unattractive way. Thanks! Grin

BaggypantsCrimplesnitch · 25/07/2017 20:04

Sadly, in my experience, there are some men who would need more than an application of highlighter to help them home in on their target. A double line of sequential flashing lights like they have at airports with an arrow or two and a big neon sign saying "HERE 'TIS" might mean they were in with a bit more of a fighting chance...

Maybe I should go into partnership with Perfect V?

Elanetical · 25/07/2017 20:06

Perfect V sounds like a very expensive way to get thrush.

😂

manglethedangle · 25/07/2017 20:53

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

Almost spit my tea out. What kind of self loathing idiot would buy that?

Upyourdaisy · 25/07/2017 21:08

How dare they steal my idea for "freshening sheets" except it's for the big A not your V.
After a huge turd if you're not feeling too fresh, slap shower gel or similar on some loo roll, give your bum a good scrub, repeat if necessary, then flush. Jobs a'gooddun! Grin

StickThatInYourPipe · 25/07/2017 21:14

In my opinion, if you really want to make a product for fannies, make a decent thrush and cystitis relief cream that smells nice and actually works!

ALLthedinosaurs · 25/07/2017 21:16

So the information page for the "magicum" descends into a full scale rant by the end. With bold , italics , random asterisks...

It amused me.

OlennasWimple · 25/07/2017 21:28

"Anti-aging" properties??

WaspsAreBastards · 25/07/2017 22:15

Good Jebus, I thought (some of) instagram was ludicrous enough with the "highlighted" cheekbones which more resemble a highly polished surface like the French polished table advert for Yellow Pages that had Max from EastEnders in it (remember that?) but no, now it's highlighted vulvas that are the next in thing? signs out of instagram post haste

"Here's the thing. The beauty industry relies on women being insecure about how they look. And as markets becomes saturated it will seek out more and different parts of women's bodies to first demonise as ugly or imperfect and then offer a branded solution to said imperfections."

This.

ILikeyourHairyHands · 26/07/2017 01:47

My vulva is perfectly hairy thank you.

Sprinklestar · 26/07/2017 02:21

So many grammatical errors on their website. If the products alone weren't enough to put you off, the slack marketing should.

ThinkOfTheHorses · 26/07/2017 02:28

I've seen this - it's essentially a highlighting powder / cream like a face highlighter for ones foof.
As a woman with protruding Labia who had to explain to my friends when watching that horrible ' naked Attraction' show ... not everyone has a "neat" fanjo I really don't need another product telling me that my disease free and perfectly normal and acceptable vulva is not good enough.
rant over

LeakyLittleBoat · 26/07/2017 02:38

It's times like this I wish I were 30 20 years younger and my glory hole landscaping could truly benefit from all this fancy fanny gear.

It'd be wasted on my DH though, he'd take one look at the credit card bill and be like "You spent how fucking much? To gussy up your pussy? Well, you can fuck right off next time you bitch about what I spent on my new fishing pole [not a euphemism]"

My obgyn might get a giggle kick out of it though.
