Now I wonder do items like this come with safety warnings like 'microwaveable bikini waxing kits' (do not overheat as you could cause permanent damage to your woo hoo), washing up liquid (do not drink - eh ok so) and more recently 'L'Oréals revolutionary (yes another one) roll-on foundation' - although technically speaking it's not actually written on the packaging that one should ensure that they don't roll the roll-on too vigourously in case one should 'accidentally' roll the goddamn thing straight into one's eye - but it should!
