I may need to do a little tinkering with the blog settings. A few folks have posted comments, but I didn't realize it until I came through browsing today.
Here's what I found at BBB, and how effective they were on my lee. Note these are exclusively for tickling, and not personal, use. 🙂
Blush brush. Soft bristles fan out roughly two inches from the base, and form a circumference of about an inch at the end. Slow paintbrush-like strokes worked gently back and forth along her elbows down to her underarms and back. They also worked along the bikini line, and along her arches.
Cuticle tool. A reasonably pointy-tipped instrument designed to compress cuticles (spongy stuff that forms along the nail base). I used it as if it were a solitary fingernail. Even though I only dragged it lightly along her sides and soles, she didn't like my using it. I'm not the torturing type (unless asked), but I think it was in that realm.
Mascara brush. Applies makeup into eyelashes, so is about the length of an eye, and has hundreds of tiny, fairly sturdy bristles a few millimeters long radiating out on all sides. I figured it would be pretty maddening between the toes - and it was.
Nose trimmer. Hold on - I modified it. Took off the head, which revealed a tiny spinning pole beneath. It had 2 tiny blades on it... so I wound a couple of rubber bands around the pole. That served two purposes, it covered the blades, and the bands were just loose enough that they whipped around a bit as if it were a mini-flosser. I designed it for her feet, she could only stand this one briefly, asked me to stop. So yeah, it worked.
Electric toothbrush. You knew this would work all over her feet.
Baby oil. Well documented in softening feet and heightening ticklishness. (OK, I actually got this at Target, but it fits.)
Comb. Works anywhere on the feet, and toes are powerless to stop its sawing power!
Hard-bristled brush. Hard to describe this one. Not really a hair brush, it had no handle, fit in the palm of the hand and was lined with densely-packed stiff bristles on each side. Another tool for the feet, this one worked pretty well on the outsides of the feet, wasn't quite as effective as other tools above though.
There's another one or two that I haven't yet played with her... and she might be reading... so will keep mum for now. I'll be visiting her next weekend. I'm pretty sure she wants to get me back this time.
