Introducing Camel No, The Underwear That Will Banish Your Camel Toe Using 'Medical Grade Silicone'

Just when we thought beauty standards for women couldn't get any more ridiculous, a new product has been launched to banish camel toes.

That's right ladies, your natural nether regions are now deemed to be too unsightly for human eyes.

But don't worry, you can buy a special pair of knickers to give you a Barbie-smooth vagina in no time.

They go by the name of Camel No.

Created by Maggie Han for her underwear brand Seamless Thread, the knickers feature a silicone liner made of a polyester and spandex blend.

"Women don’t want to address their camel toes and think if you have a camel toe then you must have a huge vagina and that’s not it," Han told Mashable.

She went on to say that the underwear is made out of "medical grade silicone" - the same material that is used for breast enhancements.

She explained: "It also takes the temperature of your body. When you sweat it won't create a smell."

Han insists she designed the product to empower women and motivate them "to wear everything in their closet and not have to fidget and fuss over it and be self-conscious".

Camel No isn't the first product created to get rid of camel toes. Last year The Cuchini was revealed to be the product of choice among beauty pageant contestants competing in swimsuit rounds.

The sanitary towel-like product is designed to be stuck to the inside of knickers or swimsuits to give the wearer a smooth pubic area.

Thanks for your concern everyone, but we'll leave our camel toes as they are.

6 Ridiculous Products That Make Women Less "Gross"

#1: Vaginal Douches (01 of06)

Here's the thing: In addition to having the power to usher actual human beings into the world, vaginas also have their own distinct scent. "A healthy vagina will usually have some sort of smell, but the scent may vary day-to-day depending on how active you are," Cosmopolitan explains. Vaginal douches are generally marketed to women as means of reducing that perfectly healthy and natural odor, fueling totally unnecessary insecurities. Added bonus: They're not safe! "Repetitive douching disrupts the normal organisms that reside in the vagina and can actually increase your risk of vaginal infection," explains the Mayo Clinic. In other words, douching puts women at risk for certain infections that can actually lead to unwanted odors and discharge. Just say no. (credit:Getty)

#2: Anti-Cellulite Products(02 of06)

The manufacturers of anti-cellulite devices and creams have made millions upon millions of dollars convincing women they hold the secret to getting rid of dimpled skin on the backs of women's thighs. But as Dr. Molly Wanner, a professor of dermatology at Harvard Medical School who wrote a 2008 review of the existing options told The New York Times: "There is no outstanding treatment for cellulite." So let's all agree not to buy into the idea that there's anything wrong with some uneven skin and, therefore, agree to stop spending money on products that are backed by very little evidence. Or, if your cellulite really rankles you, remember that "weight loss -- through healthy diet and regular exercise -- is probably the most beneficial cellulite treatment," the Mayo Clinic says.

#3: Pubic Hair Dye(03 of06)

Yes, it's a thing. And no, we can't even begin to wrap our heads around this one. Though manufacturers say pubic hair dyes are designed to be safe and can help with pressing questions about identity ("Are you a true blonde? Of course you are!" says pubic hair dye maker Betty's website) the bigger question is ... huh? Or, as O Magazine put it,"Who cares if the drapes don't match the rug (or whatever)? Who cares if you're going gray?" (credit:Shutterstock)

#4: The Camel Toe Guard(04 of06)

Yes, this too, is a thing that exists. The Cuchini, an adhesive pad you place in the front of your underwear, solves a total non-problem -- the abject horror that supposedly ensues when your spandex or jeans creep up and give you camel toe, thereby blinding every human being who looks upon your groin for the rest of his or her days.

#5: Scented Pads And Tampons(05 of06)

Yes, most women have a "menstrual scent" as Livestrong puts it, but once again it is, in most cases, perfectly natural and can be easily managed with basic hygiene, i.e., showering regularly and changing your feminine product. According to the Mayo Clinic, scented pads and tampons are yet more products that can lead to infections, like vaginitis (which can lead to itching, discharge and pain), because they're potential irritants.

#6: "Poo-Pourri"(06 of06)

As the famous book tells us, "Everybody Poops," but going to the bathroom apparently causes grown women all kinds of agida. (To wit: The Cut's awesome battle-cry urging women to "Lean in and poop at the office already.") Poo-pourri takes those "bathroom fears" and runs with them. The secret to a good relationship? Leaving the bathroom smelling better than you found it. Which, we suppose, means that the rest of us who think it's perfectly ok to go, flush and not give it a second thought are what, exactly? Condemned to a life of eternal spinsterhood? (credit:Getty)
