The Tinge: A Razor with Sex Appeal?

April 3, 2009

Today I was told that there is a new product on the market that can do double duty in your shower. Ladies, our time has come. Really. I’m not kidding.


Enter: The Tinge Razor
Order before midnight with rush shipping and you’ll have an orgasm by the next business day.

I kid you not. It’s a razor. It’s a vibrator. It’s a shower buddy. IT’S THE TINGE.

At first, I wasn’t going to write about this. Why give free press to a product that makes you fork over $99 so you can disguise your vibrator as a razor? Then I thought about it and it just was too funny to NOT mention. After all, it’s sort of a two for one deal because you can shave your legs and then have an orgasm. Or vice-versa. Actually, I’m not sure how safe it would be to shave right after your eyes just rolled back in your head.

I looked up the word “tinge” in the dictionary to reinforce my skepticism about this product.

Tinge: To affect slightly, as with a contrasting quality.

HUH? Slightly? If I am going to spend $99 on anything that is supposed to make me squeal, I’d better be guaranteed that it is going to make me more than SLIGHTLY happy. Shoot, the handheld shower head I installed to make showering easier was only $19.95.

So, I read a bit more about this razor that doubles as a power tool. For $99 you also get a discreet black box (I’m sure everyone will think it’s your new jewelry box), 2 razor cartridges, a bottle of “Tinge Pleasure Gel” (oh yeah!), a charger and a user manual. Interesting. I’ve been shaving my legs for a long time, no manual needed there. As far as the other use…um…I need instructions? Oh, OK, maybe so you don’t leave the flipping razor head on when you switch to your other task. Gotcha.

The Tinge does seem to have some features that might come in handy. How about “sound isolating technology“? Good idea! Don’t want anyone to think you brought a jack hammer into the shower. Then there is one of my favorite features: 3 hours of battery life per charge. Hot diggety dog. Three hours in the shower pretending to shave my legs…won’t the water get cold??

I don’t want to forget to mention that it’s travel ready with global voltage compatibility. Somehow I get a wee bit nervous when I think about using products in the shower that have voltage. Imagine having this bad boy in your carry-on at the airport. “Yep, that’s just my razor. I don’t leave home without it.” Yes, it’s just soooo discreet. Everyone has a razor the size of a vibrator.
So, the concept behind this dual purpose, high voltage product is to make sure no one knows that your razor doesn’t only make your legs smooth, it also starts your day out with a smile. Not a bad idea, although I wonder how it would work for those of us who want to multi-task and use it to get a Brazilian shave and a smile? It’s a thought when you’re running late.
I don’t have money to burn on something like this but I’d be willing to write a review in exchange for a new razor. Truthfully, I only want this for its excellent shaving capabilities.

Hang on a darned minute…I just WROTE a review here. I think the manufacturers of this fine product should send me one. I’m almost out of my disposable Schick razors……

    I think I’d rather spend $70 on a vibrator that is meant for the water and use the rest on the Her Styler…that one has waterproof landscaping abilities AND a razor! You’ll be smooth, sassy AND satisfied without the danger of the Tinge.

  4. Krista on April 5, 2009 at 6:05 pm

    Aw, you did the Tinge justice. LOL! I’m dying.

    Geez, what will they come up with next? What else can they turn into a vibrator? LOL

    2 thoughts: Maybe you’re supposed to have an orgasm WHILE shaving your legs, thus making a boring chore much more interesting!

    And this: Maybe the name is supposed to evoke “tingle”? And it doesn’t quite do it…

  12. Ken Montville - The MD Suburbs of DC on April 4, 2009 at 6:55 am

    …but does it come in a variety of colors? ;-)

  13. Peggy on April 4, 2009 at 5:44 am

  14. Nic on April 4, 2009 at 5:18 am

  15. MamabearMills on April 4, 2009 at 12:02 am

    Im not too sure about that! 99 is a rip! I have a pretty darn good pulsating shower head that does a pretty descent job! Man I hope My hubby doesnt ever find this comment!

  16. Sarah on April 3, 2009 at 9:59 pm

    Wow, now I’ve seen everything. :)

  17. Kelly on April 3, 2009 at 9:36 pm

    Sorry…not VGNO!! That’s what I get for “multi-tasking”! Have a great night!

  18. Kelly on April 3, 2009 at 9:35 pm

    I was trying to reconcile the idea of using a RAZOR to…well, sharp things and my…well…just don’t mix! Not THAT way.

    Now I get it. Now that is discreet. *cough* I can’t imagine needing this particular combo.

    Happy VGNO!

  19. Jenn@mylifewiththecrazies on April 3, 2009 at 7:36 pm

    So I am trying to think of something witty to say but all I can come up with is… WOW!

  20. Suzanne on April 3, 2009 at 7:02 pm

    Alright this was a great find and it matches my pink feather duster too. ;)
    Who needs Schick when you can have The Tinge. lol

  21. Steph on April 3, 2009 at 7:00 pm

    woot!! I know what I’m asking Santa for this year……

  22. ciara on April 3, 2009 at 6:49 pm

    hehe @ you only want it for its excellent shaving capabilities.

    there are two things that scare me about this product. one, the voltage of course. i don’t think that mixes well w water, do you? and two, since i trim up ‘other places’ i’m afraid w all that vibrating going on it will actually cut me cos it’s not steady. i’m not sure i want to get nicked in those other places :-/ my goodness, what will be next? lol

  23. Mary@Holy Mackerel on April 3, 2009 at 6:37 pm

    Will wonders never cease? How come I didn’t think of this first???

  24. Queen Lindsay on April 3, 2009 at 6:35 pm

    Wowzers. Why didn’t I think of this? I’m not sure if I want a razor near my winky though. That’s an accident waiting to happen. I’m just THAT clumbsy.

  25. The Mother on April 3, 2009 at 6:24 pm

    You should not only get a free razor for this review, you should get an entire carton of razors to share with your friends.

  26. Lisa Donner on April 3, 2009 at 6:18 pm

    YES! I’ll have what you’re having!

  27. KiKi on April 3, 2009 at 6:12 pm

    Oh. My. God.

    Toooo funny!
