Choosing Your First Vibrator
Ever since Charlotte disappeared into her bedroom for an entire episode of Sex and the City, the world and her sister have wanted a vibrator... But which one?
When most people think "sex toy", they think "vibrator" - and not without good reason. Dildos can seem aggressive and frankly scary but their buzzing counterparts are fun, user-friendly and tantalisingly versatile.
The science bit
Vibrations feel so good against your skin because they increase blood flow to that area and boost its sensitivity - be it the nape of your neck, that super-sensitive spot between your partner's anus and balls or your clit. Vibes also work beautifully on your G-spot - especially those designed for the purpose like the LoveHoney Jessica Rabbit 2.0 G-Spot Vibrator - but, as with all sex play, penetration is only part of the story.
The clit's a hit
Clitoral stimulators are the best-selling vibes in the world (no, really?). Happily, we have many clit-tickling treats for you to choose from.
Among the best-known are the rabbit vibrators, such as the Tracey Cox Supersex Rabbit Vibe. This dual-action vibe has a clitoral attachment that will transport you to screamer land and is best not used when your partner's mum is in the next room.
The LoveHoney 7 Function Vibrating Magic Cock Ring 2.0 spells fun for both of you - slide it over his penis during intercourse and soon neither of you will want to have sex without it.
It's important to remember that some of us don't like a direct plastic clit-hit, so try the revolutionary silicone tongues of our best-selling Sqweel Oral Sex Simulator instead.
Look! No hands!
No matter how good the in-flight movie is or how compelling the adverts on the Underground are, everyone finds travelling a bore. Or at least we did, until we discovered hands-free vibrators.
Here's a simple recipe for making your commute go with an 'Mmmm': slip the LoveHoney Remote Control Dream Egg 2.0 Vibrator inside you. Now catch your train and switch on the near-silent motor. The remote control works from up to 15 feet, so get your partner to travel further down the carriage and double the fun!
Is it a cock? Is it a vibe?
As rabbit fans know, even the hottest clitoral orgasms feel better when accompanied by a little penetration. And some of us, when we're talking penetration, want something that looks and feels like a real cock but supplies a more intense internal buzz.
The multispeed Thin Cock or 10-inch Pearl Shine provide deep penetration and are perfect for your partner to use while he's stimulating your clit. If you're a girth girl, grab an Extra Thick Cock - not one for the faint-hearted, but truly, madly, deeply satisfying.
Smooth operators
The versatility champs of the vibe world are the sleek, smooth bullet-shaped toys that can be used on any pleasure spot you fancy.
These are the vibes you'll find in our Bullet, Finger and Mini sections, where no-nonsense favourites like the Supersex Bullet sit alongside more sophisticated models like the gorgeous LoveHoney Magic Power Wand Mini Vibrator.
Egg me on
If you love your vibrator but crave that satisfying stretched feeling, it's worth investigating the Tracey Cox Supersex Vibrating Love Egg or a pair of Ben Wa Balls.
Love Eggs are designed to provide subtle internal stimulation, either via vibrations or an internal weighted ball. Reach for these treats when you want something as smooth as a Lady Lustfinger but somewhat more... filling.
Give us a G!
There's a certain type of vibe that's happiest when it's buzzing snugly up against that hyper-sensitive spot they call the Big G. The spot is located on the front wall of your vagina, just an inch or two up, and it's often deprived of direct stimulation unless your partner is very canny with his digits or aims his cock correctly during sex.
To ensure a bullseye, grab the perfect couple's toy - the We-Vibe II Clitoral and G-Spot Vibrator - and use its dual motors to massage that sweet spot.
Anal Attention
Anal play is great fun and when combined with powerful vibrations, you’ll soon see why we’re evangelists of this saucy act!
Enjoyed by both men and women, the internal walls of the anus are super sensitive and can be stimulated in various different ways.
We highly recommend the Temptation Mini Anal Vibrator for beginners and more experienced users should take a look at the Ultra 7 Tush Teaser Anal Vibrator.
Just don't forget the lube!
Women Only?
Despite the girly colours and Sex and the City connotations of toys like Jessica Rabbit, vibes are certainly not for girls only. But do exercise caution before whipping out your Vibrating Hard On Hollow Penis Extender during hot shagtastic loving.
We suspect that men are conditioned to run very fast from buzzing objects, so bring it up in conversation before you bring out the Large Crystal Ribbed Ass Shaker.
