My girlfriend works in retail. On certain days, she works from opening time until closing time. I used to feel very uneasy knowing that she didn't have a form of self defense. In an event where there is a customer who likes to get "too close", I'd like her to be prepared. I would love to buy her every form of self defense I can, but, like everyone else, I don't have the means to buy her all of those items. The disguised OC (oleoresin capsaicin) spray seemed the obvious choice. It's compact, cheap, and light. No attacker would ever figure out that it is actually a pepper spray until it's too late. I hope she never has to use it, but knowing that she has it makes the both of us feel better.
Guys, if you want your girlfriend, wife, sister, mother or friend to have an easy to use, cheap, and compact self defense item, I recommend the lipstick pepper spray. It has adequate range and it doesn't even look like a pepper spray. An attacker would not realize what hit him, and by the time it does hit him, he'll be in too much pain to do anything about it. This will give your loved one plenty of time to escape and call for help. I feel more safe knowing that she has it, and knowing that she doesn't have to get too close to an attacker to use it. You won't be dissatisfied with this item; it's a sure way to keep away the bad guys without advertising that it is a weapon.
