The 'BlingSting' pepper spray for girls is a smart way to ensure safety and style. BlingSting notes statistics like: "Every 2 minutes, someone in the US is sexually assaulted." Facts like these encouraged the mother and daughter team to come up with a way to help more females protect themselves.

Pepper spray is a helpful thing to carry around, but the mom and daughter team behind 'BlingSting' noted that they were personally less likely to attach the [safety device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxurious-safety-bracelet) to their keychains because they are typically so unattractive. Their solution to encouraging more females to protect themselves was to [bedazzle the cases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sparkle-case).

The cute cases are jewel-encrusted in four different colors which can be [clipped onto keychains](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/care-tint-balm-keyring) or tucked into the pocket of a purse for use in an emergency situation.
