We’ve all been there.
Trapped in an elevator for what seems like an eternity, butted up against a slightly moist total stranger as they sweat off their lunch trip to the All You Can Eat Garlic Buffet. You watch the progress of your ascent, playing the “Can I hold my breath all the way to the top floor without blacking out?” game in your head, as your eyeballs dry out from the burn of the elevator led panel. You can exhale now.
Australian artist and “body architect” Lucy McRae and more of those uber smart Harvard geeks have all come to our rescue.
Coming soon is a digestible pill that you wash down with your Starbucks (or drink of choice) and…wait for it…your skin will emit perfume scents that smell better than any Vogue magazine sample you’ve ever scammed at Barnes & Noble.
Since I skipped that day in Biology, I can’t really explain it. But somehow the pill kicks in with your inner workings, and you sweat out a gold film on your skin that smells delish.
I’m pretty sure that you won’t end up looking like a new James Bond villain, or that crazy street performer juggler guy painted in head to toe gold, but the sweating out gold is a little intriguing.
The press release explains it a little more scientifically…
Swallowable Parfum is a capsule that enables human skin to emit a genetically unique scent about who we are and how we perform our identities. Once absorbed, the skin becomes a platform, an atomizer; a biologically enhanced second skin synthesized directly from the natural processes of the body.
So I guess that means that the more you sweat, the better you smell? Trust me, if that’s the case, the second these gold nuggets are released to the public I’m plopping them into every 2 liter water jug that those gym RoidRats carry around between grunt sessions. Seriously, dude?
You totally need to check out the Swallowable Parfum site to really get the full effect.
You’ll find a very DanCool video showing a seriously sweaty golden girl.
No, not Betty White.
I can’t believe you even thought that.
