Could be meant for bdsm purposes but I am lacking a partner for that. And I may be desperate but I am far from being THAT desperate. 💀

It's meant as an anti snoring aid. Forces you to breathe through your nose.

It's a perfectly normal product, if questionable in efficacy since it's basically anecdotal at best if it actually works.
They're just leveraging the shock value of the name to get people to click and maybe buy them, since they're more expensive.

Ah, never heard of that before lol. I was aware some folks try to stop snoring by learning circular breathing like it is used by wind-instrumentalists

There was a mouth taping TikTok trend I think last year that this is just someone grifting on.

Ah, thx. I'm not using TikTok so I didn't know that. Thanks for that info :D

I saw it leak onto insta via this ad a few months ago and went down this rabbit hole.
