Don’t taze me, Revlon! According to Candace Bushnell, it’s a lipstick jungle out there. But with the proper tools, any lady can navigate her way around the bush.

And for the women out there who want to take care of themselves but in a ladylike way, Trend Hunter reports that there is at least one company looking out for your interests– and that company is Defense Devices.com.

Coming to a purse near you is their new Lipstick Stun Gun, a compact device that generates 350,000 volts and is made to look like an ordinary tube of lipstick. Its sleek, undetectable and comes in an array of stylish metallic shades. I like pink!

Additionally, the Lipstick Stun Gun comes equipped with a built-in flashlight. You know, so you can either find your keys in your purse or see your attacker after stunning him so you can make a positive ID later. Protection never looked this good. One word of advice: don’t confuse this bad boy with your real lipstick. I don’t think electrical shock is a fun lip-plumper.
