D I.Y Sex Toys: Self-Love Edition

“You can use a wand during masturbation or partnered play for direct and targeted stimulation of the genitals,” Frye-Nekrasova says. “You can also use wands as foreplay of partner play by giving each other full-body massages with wands to fully relax and prep for fun together.” We named this small but mighty vibrator the best sex toy for travel, but it’s also an elite clitoral vibrator on its own, offering targeted vibrations as well as a lovely rumbly sensation across the vulval. Waterproof and made with medical-grade silicone, the tiny vibrator has a ridge to target the clit, and there are five intensities and patterns so you can customize the experience exactly how you’d like it. “Dame has really good products,” adds Gigi Engle, certified sex and relationships psychotherapist and resident sex expert at SexToysUK. “They’re reliable and high-quality.”It’s fully waterproof, so there are no limits to where you can bring this thing (and it also has a convenient travel-lock feature).

Opt for a location where both you and your partner feel comfortable and at ease. For beginners, starting with familiar surroundings can alleviate nervousness and facilitate quick adjustments if needed. Restaurants, with their intimate seating arrangements and discreet restrooms, offer an ideal setting for discreet yet exhilarating encounters. Firstly, before making a purchase vibrator, it’s wise to read reviews or real-life comments to gain honest insights into the performance of the vibrator.

These small sex toys are designed to slide onto your fingers or sit right between them, allowing you to use one as an extension of your finger. “Finger vibrators are also great for people to extend the experience of their own touch,” says Balestrieri. “Because they are often easy to hold, or slide over a finger, there is less mobility and agility required to access the pleasure of a vibrator. When used via solo sex, a finger vibrator allows you to stay more closely connected to your own sensations and erotic energy because it organically matches your own movements,” she explains. Whether you have a treasure trove of sex toys or this is your first one, finding the best one to suit your needs can be a game-changer for your sex life. Most have a single motor and only one or two buttons to control intensity.

With more than 150 electric models to choose from, VIBCO has an electric vibrator to suit your specific needs including adjustable speed and force, heavy duty, high frequency and explosion proof models. VIBCO’s Big BerthaTM Dumpbody Vibrators and SandBusterTM Spreader Hopper Vibrators are perfect for trucking and mobile applications. Given that buying three separate gadgets that perform the functions of the Vibrato would total over $300, I argue that the Vibrato is well worth its price point. Plus, I’m now willing to spend extra just to keep my sex toy collection a little more manageable.

While it can be tough to assess a toy’s noise level online, we recommend skimming reviews to see what shoppers have to say. When she is not writing about the latest expert reviewed products, you can find her rifling through vintage shops or car boots, reading a print magazine, or capturing portraits on her film camera. Of course, cleaning protocols vary depending on material and waterproofing capabilities.

Beyond the pre-set modes, the app allows you to create your own vibration patterns. This feature is particularly helpful if you have specific needs, such as targeting muscle pain or managing anxiety. You can determine the duration and intensity of each vibration and save your custom routines for easy access later. The app’s core function is to simulate a body massage through vibrations. You can adjust the intensity and power of each vibration mode, tailoring the experience to your preference.

Even if your toy is rumbly enough to land on the Richter scale, adding hand motions will enhance your experience. When using an external stimulator , Dr. Hauser suggests moving the vibrator in a circular, vertical back and forth, horizontal side-to-side motion, or a combination of all of the above. As for G-spot vibrators, try experimenting with strokes—fast and hard or gentle and slow, the thrust intensity is literally in the palm of your hands. When you’re shopping for a sex toy, investing in a quality personal lubricant is also a good idea. Lubricant eases penetration of all types, increases comfort and sexual pleasure, and reduces friction and genital irritation. Even people who produce abundant natural lubrication may benefit from using lube for additional comfort.

You can also tag each session with different terms so you can track how your health, sleep, alcohol consumption, mood, etc. affect your experiences. Cassie spends most of her time thinking about and consuming cheese in all its glorious forms. For all the “ick factor” she says she still sees when the topic of older adult sexuality comes up, Price notes that she’s begun to see a slow shift.
