Our vibrator buying guide for beginners: How to choose a sex toy
It sits somewhere between a bullet vibrator and a standard-sized vibrator vibrator, making it discreet and easy to carry. “Vibrators can be great as they can add extra stimulation to wherever feels good for you, whether it’s the clitoris, in the vagina, or other erogenous zones,” Dr. Lincoln explains. “The ability to take your orgasms into your own hands (and that of your vibrator) is a fantastic way to take charge of your sex life and your pleasure.”
Despite the specific needs of older adults, both Lawless and Price are hesitant to say a hypothetical sex toy specifically built for and marketed to older adults (like the Ménage à Moi) is wholly necessary. After all, they tell Mashable, there are already ergonomically-designed vibrators on the market that do meet many of the physical needs of, say, an arthritic older person. Emojibator offers an assortment of tantalizing Emoji-themed sex toys, so we’re sure you’ll be able to find your perfect match through trial and error. I really prefer having a toy that uses a USB DC charger when I can (some bullet vibrators will utilize a USB DC charger) and the fact that the Strawberry was easy to charge was great. Both toys used USB ports on the other end of the cord, so it’s easy to mix and match your charging bases for the toys. $35 for a powerful vibrator that’s fun, cute, and easy to travel with is nothing to scoff at—frankly, after using and growing to love the Cherry Emojibator, I’m shocked it’s not more expensive.
We care about your fun, but please do not share the product with multiple partners without following cleaning instructions. Stimulation doesn’t get much more targeted than Lelo’s laser-focused Dot. The tip rotates in tiny circles, providing a sensation that’s similar to the feeling of rubbing your clitoris with your finger—but way stronger. Each model was tested by at least five people, who tried every speed setting, vibration pattern and innovative feature to make sure they delivered a pleasurable experience. If you’re concerned about the sound, shop for quiet vibrators or check the product description for the decibel level; anything 40db or below will be exceptionally quiet. The classic G-spot vibrator comes with a curved tip to target that specific erogenous zone, which is found around 5-8cm up the inside wall of the vagina.
The device has two arms – the internal one goes into the vagina to stimulate the G-spot and send vibrations along the penis, while the textured upper arm is designed to target the clitoris. The smooth silicone material was a hit with our testers, who also liked the discreet design and said it was whisper quiet. Turn it on to the lowest power setting, and gently touch it to the surface of your clitoris. Clits vary wildly in their sensitivity, so it’s best to start super soft. If even the lowest setting is too much for you, try holding the vibrator against your labia, so that it’s not touching your clitoris directly.
“The angled tip can be tilted for pinpointed pleasure, or you can roll the vibrator across erogenous zones like your nipples, perineum, or vulva for a more smooth and diffused sensation,” she says. There’s a huge range of insertable vibrators and sex toys that target this zone, including dual-stimulation ones (like rabbit vibrators), curved toys, and models with bulbous heads that pulse or thrust. A popular option for power-hunters, this 13-inch wand has four intensity settings and four vibration patterns. It also has a flexible neck that lets you apply pressure at different angles for a more targeted sensation. It has a cord, so you never have to worry about it crapping out on you mid-session.
I feel silly even confessing to being daunted by the user interface of a strawberry emoji-themed vibrator, but that’s what happened! The instructions indicate that you have to use the power button and the smaller, vibrations button to create the variation in vibration and suction you prefer. Pressing the power button turns on suction, while pressing the other button below it turns on the vibrations.
If you’re on the hunt for a sexy toy that serves as a body massager and powerful sex toy, this VUSH wand will deliver on both fronts. It has five varying levels and 10 optimised vibration patterns to explore plus, it features an ergonomic body so you can wiggle, pump and slide it around for up to two hours. Unlike a lot of other wands this one is waterproof, which means you can take it into the bathtub for ultra-wet sessions — alone or in partnered sex. Made from smooth, squishy , body-safe silicone, it offers five suction intensities and five vibration patterns to suit your preference.
