The G-Pop

by Domina Doll on 02/06/2010

g pop sex toy The G Pop

When I was doing my strange sex toy reviews, the G-Pop would have been a good addition.  Not that it is bizarre like the replica Wolf Penis I reviewed, or blasphemous like the Jackhammer Jesus, or even fantastical like the Dragon’s Tongue… But, it definitely is not what I ever expected a G-spot dildo to look like.  In fact, when I first saw it I was sure it was a percussion toy.

So a G-Pop is basically a sex toy with a long steel rod having a plastic handle on one end and a heavy steel ball on the other.  It comes in different sizes: 1.5″, 2″ and 2.38″ diameters and various colors.  The manufacturers, Steel Vineyards, also make them in gemstone varieties as well.  Mine came in Cherry Red with a 2” diameter, which is very large, heavy and hard as hell.  It is a heavy metal dildo that will either rock your G-spot to bliss, or leave you in serious pain.

When I first got my G-Pop it sat on my desk and I used it for percussion to massage my shoulders.  It worked very well bouncing lightly off my shoulder muscles, but you have to be extremely careful not to hit the bone (even lightly) as you could seriously hurt yourself.  My partner didn’t like the feeling of it as a percussion toy, saying it wigged him out.  I think two of these would make ideal percussion toys together on the soft cushions of the butt, playing the flesh like a xylophone.

Percussion play is not the G-Pop’s intended purpose, however.  It is meant to be inserted, like a dildo and rocked or pumped to excite the G-spot.  Well, I thought I could handle a 2” diameter of unyielding steel.  After all, the large end of my NJoy Pure Wand is 1 ½”, so I didn’t think an extra ½” would be anything to worry about.  I’m afraid I was wrong.

I first applied my new G-spot gel, Shunga’s Rain of Love arousal gel to my G-spot.  I then lubed the G-Pop up well and began rubbing it around my vulva and slowly inserting it.  No go. I obviously needed some extra stimulation to get more aroused.  I grabbed my trusty lusty plug-in massager the Fairy Wand and went to work on my clit, while my partner slowly rolled and twisted the G-Pop at the opening of my vagina.  Every time it almost went in, it felt like my pelvic bone was going to crack and my G-Spot burned painfully.  We tried this for a while to no avail.  I couldn’t insert the G-Pop without feeling pain, tensing up and popping it out.  Holy mother-fucker and did it hurt! The worst of it was, I was afraid if I did manage to get it inside, I would never get it out.  I imagined a trip to the emergency room with this thing sticking out of me, and well, it freaked me out.

While I have tried many sex toys in the name of “science” (Ha!), I am not willing to undergo pain or fear for a review.  I read both AAG’s and Essin’ Em’s reviews of the G-Pop, and while they both had to carefully work it in, they both did manage to insert the toy and both found it exquisite once inside.  AAG had the largest one and Essin’ Em the smallest.  So, while the G-Pop didn’t fit me in the 2” size, it would obviously fit other people.  I have a small vagina and I’ve never had kids, so 2” was way too large for me.  I do know that had I got the 1 ½” that it would have fit, because after trying unsuccessfully to insert the G-Pop, I got my NJoy Pure Wand out and the large end slid easily inside me, making me squirt uncontrollably. (My reward to undergoing the G-Pop pain!)

I still think that the G-Pop is a pretty groovy, unique sex toy.  I would still love to try the 1 ½”, and from now on will keep that in mind when getting new toys.

You can get your own G-Pop in various sizes at SexToy.com from “virgin” to “adventurous” to “masochist”!

SaSi Vibrator

by Domina Doll on 01/27/2010

in sex toys,sextoys

SASI.BLACK 500 1 SaSi Vibrator

The SaSi vibrator invented by British company Je Joue has been touted as the best thing since sliced bread.  Well, maybe not sliced bread, but it was named the best sex toy of 2009 by Cosmo magazine and 1 of the top 10 toys of 2008 by Fleshbot.  And, while it can’t slice your bread, it is supposed to be the closest thing to cunninglingus next to a real life tongue.  (Yes, even better than the most excessively promoted sex toy this year, the Sqweel [my review]).

So, what’s the hype all about?

To be honest, I have been one of the many sex toy reviewers who have been craving to get their pussy next to a SaSi.  Who wouldn’t want to try a “sexual intelligence” sex toy that claims to mimic oral sex and learns what you like, just like a lover?  But are these claims true?

Yes.  The SaSi does feel as close as a sex toy can get to a good clitty lickin’. Under a soft silicone stretchy surface, a little pleasure nub sticks out to rub and titillate your clit.  Depending on your mode, this nub strokes, circles and flickers, much like a real tongue, while you control the speed and vibration.

Pre-Programmed Mode

The nub has five settings in the pre-programmed mode, which are the most favored among the test users.  You can cycle through the modes by pressing the next button, or go back.  It is a good way to first get introduced to the various motions of the nub, before trying the Custom Mode out.

Custom Mode

In Custom Mode the SaSi tries various movements which you can pass on by pressing the next button, or tell SaSi you like it, by clicking “Don’t Stop”.  Gradually, SaSi remembers your likes and dislikes and eventually changes the Pre-Programmed Mode to your favorites.

SASI.BLACK 500 4 SaSi Vibrator

Getting to Know Your SaSi

Like a lover, the SaSi requires a bit of time to get to know her.  She becomes a better lover over time, once she gets to know what you like, and once you get used to her functions.  She’s much more sophisticated than any wham-bam-thank-you-ma’m vibrator and therefore requires more romance before you get down and bed her.  Give the SaSi time to show you her moves so you can make the most out of what she has to offer.

Design

The SaSi is curved to fit neatly between the labia and hug the clitoris.  It takes a while to position the SaSi perfectly, so the nub moves around and touches the clit in just the right way.  Lube is a must and while it takes a bit of trial and error, you’ll know when you got it in just the right place.  In Custom Mode I recommend going slowly through the modes and trying each one as you move the SaSi around to find the best feel.  If it’s not working for you, move on.  When you do find one you like, hit the “Don’t Stop” but then continue on as SaSi just might surprise you with other tricks up her sleeve.  You will find that the SaSi will perform better the second time you use her than the first, as there is a bit of a learning curve with using her.

Controls

I found the buttons a bit difficult to use at first.  This is because I have long fingernails, and it makes it hard to push the buttons, especially the next button when in use.  After a bit, I was better able to control the buttons with practice using the pads of my fingers.

Power

The SaSi needs to be charged before using.  She comes with several plug adapters for use in the North America, UK, Europe, and Australia.  Just plug her in and her indicator will be red when uncharged which turns to green when fully charged.

The SaSi also vibrates in addition to the nubby motions it makes.  On high, this vibration is pretty good (not mind blowing, but satisfactory and comparable with Lelo’s).  Combined with the nub movements, it is enough to get you over the edge to orgasm.

The SaSi is more of a slow seduction that will allow you to gradually build to orgasm, rather than a Va-voom, rock-your-world kind of sex toy.  People who rely on the Hitachi would hate it.  However, if you are into a slow, seductive evening of self-pleasure, then the SaSi is your gal.

Nostalgia

nostalgia cover Nostalgia

Nostalgia (2009)
Studio- Reel Queer Productions / Good Releasing
Director- Courtney Trouble
Cast- April Flores, Kimberly Kane, Jiz Lee, Syd Blakovich, Madison Young, Trouble, Pepper Sox, Sealu Sideshow, Destiny Prince, Selena Raven, Tina Horn, Kimberlee Cline, Carson, Sadie Lune, and Carol Queen

In case you haven’t heard, GoodVibes.com now has its own adult porn production studio, GoodReleasing.com and I am overjoyed.  Two of my favorite girl-girl directors—Courtney Trouble (NoFauxxx.com) and Madison Young (MadisonBound.com)—are producing woman-made queer porn under Reel Queer Productions and were nominated at this years AVN Awards.  I have reviewed quite a few of both their films on PopMyCherryReview.com and also her on SexCarnival that you can also check out.

Nostalgia (2009) is a super-cool porno by up-and-cumming director, Courtney Trouble.  As the tile indicates, it has a nostalgic feel and pays homage to the late great Marilyn Chambers who sadly died of an aneurysm in April last year.  Marilyn Chambers was best known for her portrayal in Behind the Green Door (1972) in which her character Gloria gets kidnapped and “raped” before a live sleazy circus-like audience.

Scene 1- (Homage to Behind the Green Door) All girl three-way starring Jiz Lee

Two women are making out on a couch, one in a feather mask who is “warming” the other girl up (Gloria) to get her ready for the circus-rape orgy scene.  Killer tunes play in the background.  “Gloria” is then lead blindfolded into a dungeon scene where several spectators await including Carol Queen with a crazy voyeuristic smile on her face. “Gloria” is then “ravished” upon a stage by one the feathered girl, when in walks Jiz Lee, likewise feather-masked sporting a big strap-on.  The audience claps as both feather-masked women play with her, while Jiz mounts her, first slowly, then hard and fast.  She orgasms? Then both masked ladies squirt fem ejaculate over her.  This scene doesn’t have the impact that my memory has of the original film, but then I was probably pretty impressionable back then, and I can remember it being pretty “Wow!”  What may have lacked during this scene for me was the “rape” element.  In this film the scene is very “consensual” and doesn’t have the scary rape-fantasy scenario that many women fantasize about.  And, while I don’t agree with nonconsensual sex in real life, in fantasy having rough sex and being taken is hot.  Also, I remember the audience being more involved in the original than they are here. It was way more like a circus freak show, and being a freak, I loved the edgy atmosphere of the Behind the Green Door much better.  Of course, this is Courtney’s own take on it, but it just didn’t work for me as well as the original.

Interlude- Courtney & Pepper

Meanwhile, to begin the film and in between each episode, Courtney and real-life lover Pepper are making out as they watch the films via a computer screen. These are just short interludes until the end of the film.

Scene 2- (Homage to Deep Throat) All girl three-way with Jiz Lee, Syd Blakovich and Madison Young.

In this homage to Deep Throat Madison plays a patient who can’t orgasm, or even feel any arousal what-so-ever from sex.  She comes to Dr. Syd for help as Jiz plays the trusty nurse in a blonde wig.  Sid is amazing in her geek glasses as the doctor, very hot and funny.  Got some great lines and definitely doesn’t fuck them up.  Madison does a pretty good job, but is very melodramatic.  Given that it is comedic she was most likely supposed to ham it up a bit.  Dr. Sid tries several methods to arouse Madison: bondage, a hitachi, strap-on; each to no avail.  Dr. Sid then discovers that Madison’s clit is in her throat.  “Ah ha!  I zink we’ve found it!”  Madison then hungrily gobbles down Sid’s strap-on and is a pro at it.  You would really think she is getting off by it and perhaps she is.  Once the cock squirts silver glitter and fireworks ensue, the three get it on and Sid fucks Madison with a golf club, which is very cool and has quite a technique.  “I do believe you’re cured”, says Dr. Sid.  Fucking awesome scene!  Very fun, hot and funny!

Scene 3- (Homage to Babylon Pink) with Tina Horn

I never saw Babylon Pink, so can’t refer to it for comparison.  But, this scene was really kind of boring and didn’t seem to have much focus or built-up progression.  It features Tina Horn (who was awesome in Seven Minutes in Heaven).  Here, you can barely hear them over the music, and I never get into it.  The scenario is three gals sitting down to lunch in this weird room that looks like an empty stage.  One is a vegan and is uninterested in the other two women’s discussion about meat.  Turned off I guess is more appropriate.  So she fantasizes about having sex, first as the bottom, then turning the tables and topping the other two.  Like I said, press FF and skip it.

Scene 4- (Homage to the Devil in Miss Jones) with April Flores, Kimberly Kane, Courtney Trouble and Pepper

I didn’t see the original Devil in Miss Jones, but saw 3 & 4 with Amber Lynn and Vanessa Del Rio which was uber hot.  This scene stars April Flores as a lonely woman who commits suicide and then finds herself in purgatory.  I really love the beginning atmosphere of the scene as April stares at herself in the mirror and then runs the bathtub where she will slit her wrist (which is hinted at with red glitter running down the side of the tub and her floating in the bathtub full of blood).  It could have been more alt, edgy horror-show, but was very artistic and April is fantastic.  So, she is transported to purgatory (which is a lot like hell) and the scene becomes more comical.  Kimberly Kane (the Devil’s assistant) meets her at the door to hell and tells her she has a chance to go back if she engages in one of the deadly sins, which she of course picks lust.  Kane then brings April into a room where Courtney and Pepper are making out.  A fuck-fest ensues, but mainly the couples stay together until the end.  Kane and April are seriously hot and I wish the scene wasn’t as cut up as it was, and focused longer on them.  Not that I didn’t get into Courtney and Pepper, I just wanted more of Kane and April.  By the end they are all having sex together in a massive orgy and assume a very cool position with April and Courtney are facing each other as they boink tits and their partners lay under them eating them out.  Great scene!  But give me more April & Kimberly!

nostalgia1 Nostalgia

The END credits are dedicated to Marilyn Chambers and then there is an inserted vignette that goes back to Dr. Sid talking into a recorder about his last patient Madison, as Jiz fucks her from behind.  Dr. Sid talks about discovering a pleasure spot in her throat and calls it the Blakovich spot.  Again, pretty funny and unexpected.  It left me smiling and wanting more, more, more!

This film also has killer glitter-trash tunes featuring The Need, Veronica Lipgloss, TWIN, and Two Ton Boa, and was nominated for an AVN for the music.

Overall, Nostalgia was very good despite the third scene which didn’t cut it and the first which could have been much more edgy.  A great attempt at honoring these classics, which are big shoes to fit into.  I really love that Courtney Trouble is trying to do something radically different with porn and take it into a new, or even retro direction.

Kinklab Vampire Gloves

in sex toys,sextoys

vamp gloves Kinklab Vampire Gloves

I have been looking for a pair of vampire gloves for a long time.  Most of the ones I have found are large and kind of boxy (ie: not form-fitting).  So I was very hopeful that the Kinklab Vampire Gloves from Tabutoys.com would be different.  And, they are!

These gloves are just like a pair of women’s sexy leather gloves.  They are size small, snuggly form fitting, and are made of gorgeous soft leather.  No one will know you are wearing vampire gloves until you dig your claws into them!

These vampire gloves feature prickly metal points on the fingers which are great for doing sensation play.  You can use them to softly rub over the skin to create a tingling, ticklish sensation.  Use a bit more force and they nasty pain tools used to scratch or pierce as you grab, rub or smack the flesh.  Use them to entice as a sensual reward, or to punish as a vicious weapon, leaving tiny vampire teeth marks in your bottom’s bottom to remind them of their misdeeds.

These are the best Vampire Gloves I have found so far on the market and I’ve been searching a long while.  Very hot, nasty and oh, so sexy!  Spanks!

Buy these Vampire Gloves from Tabutoys.com

Smartballs Teneo Uno and Duo

by Domina Doll on 01/12/2010

bodyOrgans Smartballs Teneo Uno and Duo

On your search for orgasms (and sex toys) one thing that many women and men don’t consider is the health of their PC (Pubococcygeus) Muscle.  But, the PC Muscle is very important to your genital health and in fact, can help you attain better, bigger, more orgasmic orgasms when regularly exercised and maintained.  Here’s why:

For Women-

“PC workouts are very beneficial for all women, regardless of your age, your vagina’s physical condition, or whether or not you have given birth.  Why?  Since the PC muscle also encircles the outside of the vagina, healthy PC muscles will improve sexual arousal, allow you to feel your partner more fully during intercourse and intensify your partner’s pleasure by tightening the vagina cavity, thus enhancing lovemaking for both of you.  And, that’s not all.  Strong PCs allow you to reach orgasm more easily, experience more powerful and pleasurable orgasms, and may even help you achieve multiple orgasms as you learn to better control and respond to your sexual arousal.  Fit PC muscles also improve G-spot stimulation and can help you learn to experience G-spot orgasms and female ejaculation.  Rhythmic squeezing of your PC muscle during intercourse will help increase lubrication, stimulate the clitoris, and massage your partner’s penis to take him to new heights of sexual ecstasy.”–Pop My Cherry Review

For Men-

According to AskMen.com, PC Muscles are largely responsible for controlling “the flow of semen and urine, the firmness of your penis during erection and the shooting power of your ejaculation.”  They also add that doing regular kegels help “to better control your orgasms and ejaculations” which leads to harder, longer lasting erections and more “staying power”.  Some sources even say doing kegels will help sustain good prostate health.

So, for both women and men, doing kegels and maintaining PC health is an exercise ritual which will keep you sexually active and enjoying your orgasms well into old age.

1duo1 Smartballs Teneo Uno and Duo

Introducing the Smartballs Teneo Uno and Duo that I am reviewing for GoodVibes.com.  The Smartballs Teneo Uno and Duo are an updated version of Fun Factory’s original SmartBalls [my review] which are now made from silicone instead of elastomer (which means they are no longer porous).  But, that is not the only difference.  The Uno is a single ball, whereas the Duo is two balls like the original connected by a silicone string, although both are sold separately.  The balls are the same diameter as the originals and have weighted metallic balls that roll around inside as you move. The Duo and Uno are more textured than before and feel slightly bigger because of this as well as heavier.

1uno1 Smartballs Teneo Uno and Duo

The advantage of having two types to choose from is that the Uno would be an ideal starter toy for those of you haven’t done kegels with something inside of them before.  They are much less intimidating than two balls at once.  In fact, a friend of mine was visiting during the holidays and I showed her my sex toy collection including the Uno and Duo.  She is a devote Baptist Christian and has never owned a sex toy in her life.  Anyway, we were talking about PC health and she said she had heard about doing kegels, so I asked her if she wanted to try out the Uno or Duo for keepers.  She was thrilled and picked the Uno (natch!).  She has reported back that the Uno was very easy to use and did greatly enhance her ability to do her kegels as she has something to squeeze around.  She just loves it.

I also think that the Uno would be great for men inserted anally for enhancing their kegels and maintaining good prostate health, although I didn’t have a guy friend to try this out on.  If any men have, please let me know how it went!

The Duo would be great of people who want more of a challenge with their kegels and have a bit more room to play with.  I think these would be more ideally suited for women who are recovering from vaginal births and want to strengthen their PC muscle and vagina, as well as women who suffer from very weak PC muscles or incontinence.  For women with tighter vaginas or a strong PC muscle the Duo may be a bit much.  I personally prefer the Uno over the original Smartballs and the Duo, so I’m glad I have a choice.

My favorite ways to use my Smartballs are:

  • While sitting at my desk.  Gives me a workout without having to move.
  • While doing housework, especially the dishes or vacuuming so the chore is not so mundane.
  • While working out.  I actually enjoy using them when doing my Pilades routine as it gives me an extra sexual workout.
  • While belly dancing.  This is the ultimate way to use your Smartballs as it really gets those balls wiggling and jiggling inside of you.  Be forewarned you might get horny though!
  • Pre-sex stimulation and foreplay.  Have these inside you for an hour or more while anticipating partner sex and you’ll be good to go and pre-stimulated.
  • During clitoral masturbation to stimulate the G-spot.  Doing those kegels with practiced breathing will heighten your orgasms, strengthen your muscles to enjoy G-spot orgasms more and lead to bigger, better orgasms.  Combined with clitoral stimulation will help you achieve combined clitoral and G-spot orgasms.

Ya!  So that’s the Uno and Duo of doing your kegels to maintain good PC health.  Want to have a vagina that can crack a walnut?  Then get over to GoodVibes.com to pick yourself up a Smartballs Teneo Kegel Sex Toy.

Bswish Bsoft

by Domina Doll on 01/07/2010

in sex toys,sextoys

bswish Bswish Bsoft

Last month I did a series of Luxury Sex Toy reviews as it has been a growing trend in the marketplace.  While looking for potential products to review, I came across the Bswish Bsoft rechargeable vibrator from Vibrator.com.  I have always been happy with the quality products I receive from Vibrator.com so I decided to try out the Bsoft.  I was also initially interested in this product because Bswish is one of the new sex toy companies on the market who are trying to go about doing things differently by making stylish, body-safe products targeted towards a chic, hip woman’s market.  So, plunge I did.

Sadly, however I was very unimpressed with the Bsoft when it arrived.  Although the packaging was nice and it is a rechargeable vibe (bonus) the vibe itself looked and felt very flimsy and cheap.  For a product that retails around $70, I was expecting much more “quality”.  Which brings me to a point to why I think sex toy reviews, or product reviews of any kind are so valuable.  Because I can’t hold and touch a product online, I rely heavily on what other consumers say about a product.  If I can’t read a book, I read other people’s reviews of it on Amazon before buying it.  The same goes with sex toys. I always read other sex toy reviewers’ product reviews before making a purchase of my own.

If I had of read an honest review of this product I would have known it was made of a very lightweight plastic (which makes me wonder why it is called a Bsoft?), like a child’s cheap “flying saucer” toy that I could easily crush or break.  I would have known that the design of the toy, while fitting well with the vulva, doesn’t stimulate the clitoris well at all and is almost impossible to place near the clit.  I would have also read that the vibrations are meh (subtle) and that it lacked the power that any good clitoral vibrator should have.  Also, it is impossible to not hit the controls while you are trying to use and position it, which turns it off constantly. So, in a nutshell, I would have learned it was useless for it designed purpose.  Maybe some kid would get a charge out of it pretending to fly it around the galaxy before they broke it, but for a woman wanting to masturbate this toy is a dud.

Moral of the story?  I know many sex toy stores don’t have the time to review each and every product they sell.  That is why I think it is valuable for them to have people to review their products, as well as for the consumers who are looking to buy these products.  There must be about a bazillion sex toys on the market, so how do you know what works or which one(s) to choose?

This was one of the reasons I got into reviewing sex toys in the first place.  I was often frustrated with my purchases of junky sex toys, toys that broke, didn’t perform as advertised, or those made out of crappy materials.  Soon after I started reviewing and while working in a brick and mortar sex toy shop, I was introduced to smelly jellies and the dangers of phthalates and other nasty chemicals used in sex toy manufacturing.  And, while some people like to put down what sex toy reviewers do and think they are only in it for free toys, I have always been passionate about doing honest reviews that I think help and educate consumers.  I don’t just review sex toys because it is a fad, I do it because I work in the adult industry and it is important to me to improve the quality of products sex shops sell and manufacturers make.  But, mainly I do it for myself and for consumers, because I want everyone to have happy orgasms, and be able to choose the best sex toys of quality that are suited to them.

So, if you ever have any questions about a certain product or sex toys in general, don’t be afraid to ask me.  I have reviewed over 500 products and if I haven’t reviewed that exact product, I can most likely still tell you quite a bit about it, or recommend another product you would like based on what you are looking for.

Okay, that’s my soapbox for today!

While I didn’t like the Bswish Bsoft, please do check out Vibrator.com as they carry many wonderful quality sex toys and clitoral stimulators for happy orgasms.

Editor’s Pick

  • Pink by EffinSara

    • Pink Lube is a silicone-based lube and contains only five ingredients: Dimethicone, Vitamin E, Aloe Vera, Dimethiconol, and Cyclomethicone. Vitamin E and aloe vera are generally soothing and nurturing for skin, and the other three are silicone polymers, which have a number of properties that make them ideal lubricants. Their molecules are too big to pass between the top layer of cells in your skin, much less penetrate cell membranes, so once you put them on they won’t be going anywhere. No absorption or anything. This makes silicone-based lubes longer lasting than their water-based counterparts

    Note: I get a special tingle when people explain ingredients of lube, I’m not sure why. Maybe because it doesn’t always happen, or maybe because science gives me a happy. Either way, I like it. Also, while I do love snark, there is something to be said for negative reviews which showcase the fact that personal preference ties in to the dislike of a product rather than negativity toward the product itself. On both cases, this review is a winner.

  • Eros and Isis Leo by Domina Doll

    • Their line of sensual adult toys are made from 100% silicone and are exquisite objects d’art. With names like Lancelot, Cleo and Leo the Lion, their inspiration lies in mythical eroticism and fervent fantasies. Each erotic object is disguised as a fine art collectable and resemble antiqued silver, jade or gold chess pieces or figurines.

    Note: Every once in a while a toy comes along that simply takes my breath away, and I just can’t resist making it EP for the week, and this was one of those. There are tons of other amazing reviews this week, though too, it was difficult to choose!

Ooh La La Rabbit by NookiiToy

ooh la la rabbit Ooh La La Rabbit by NookiiToy

NookiiToy is a company owned by two women who first came out with a game called Nookii whose purpose was to inspire “intimacy, discovery and curiosity with a great big dash of playfulness”.  The game was fairly successful, so they took that philosophy and created a whole line playful sex toy kits that combined an individual toy in the distinctive NookiiToy packaging with complementary products and role-playing cards to spice it up a bit.  Some of the kits they have developed include “In the Mood for Love”, the “Weekend Fun Collection” and the “Slap & Tickle” kits.  Today I am reviewing the Ooh La La Rabbit.

I never did get into all the hype around Rabbit Vibrators myself and was never a fan of “Sex in the City”.  The Rabbit Habit (the one made famous by the show) was one of the first sex toys I ever owned.  And, while I enjoyed the Rabbit ears that stimulated the clitoris, I could never get the whole thing to work in unison as it was supposed to.  Since then I’ve owned a few other Rabbits with similar results.  So I’ve pretty well steered clear of Rabbits since then.

But, then I saw the Ooh La La Rabbit by NookiiToy while browsing the TabuToys.com website.  I wanted to try something from Nookii, and felt I was ready to try a Rabbit again.  I loved the packaging, the philosophy behind the toy, that fact that it was designed by women and even the name itself.  And, I since I am someone who never says never, I took the Nookii Ooh La La Rabbit plunge.

The Ooh La La Rabbit comes packaged in this cool oblong tube-shaped cardboard box with a pretty minimalist Art Nouveaux-style line drawing.   It has a little ribbon on top which allows you to pull the top cover off and see the toy kit inside.  The Ooh La La Rabbit comes with a pearl colored Rabbit, a pink blindfold that is satin on one side and fuzzy on the other, a “do not disturb” sign, about 20 “suggestive experience cards and tips” for using your kit, as well as a little circular pamphlet for usage and features.  The tips are pretty cute and give you ideas for ways to touch yourself with the toys and various role-playing scenarios you can try with your partner.  I love the blindfold; it is so cozy and would be the perfect kind to sleep in to get your “beauty” rest.

The Ooh La La Rabbit is made of medical grade silicone so is body safe, with an insertable shaft of 5″ and a thick 1.625″ girth.  It is quite a bit thicker than most Rabbits you will find.  Both the penetrating shaft and the rabbit tickler are covered in sensation bumps for added stimulation, and one of the cards even suggests using the tickler to insert and flutter against the G-spot.  This was kind-of interesting and innovative so I tried it.  But, I’ll get to that in a moment.  The weirdest thing about this toy is that it takes a 9v battery.  I’ve never seen a sex toy take this kind of battery and they may be hard to find in some places.  In fact, while I was reading through all the card teasers and working myself up into a bit of a frenzy to try the toy, I went to insert the batteries thinking they’d be just a bunch of AAs, and realized I didn’t have the correct kind on hand.  That was a big downer and Nookii should include batteries with their toys, especially if they are a unique type that most people do have hanging around, just to avoid disappointment for the user.

So, I did get a 9v and popped that inside the Rabbit.  The 9v seemed powerful enough, yet not more powerful than 6 AAs.  The Ooh La La Rabbit has six vibration modes from straight vibration to various undulations, each controlled by different mode buttons.  There is no unique control for the shaft and ticklers alone, so each setting vibrates both simultaneously.  Also, there is only one speed, which is interchangeable with the modes, but unfortunately you can’t turn the vibe up to max.

I lubed the Rabbit up and first tried one of the suggestions, slipping the vibrating ears inside and positioning them toward my G-spot.  This was quite a feat.  The body of the toy is very close to the ears, so it was very hard to get the toy in that position, and if it had felt good, I wouldn’t have been able to keep it there long because it was so awkward.  But, basically the quivering ears stopped quivering once inside and I felt nothing.  So, I tried the quivering ears on my clit.  I had a barely-there experience that did nothing to stimulate me at all.  Next I tried the shaft itself, which as I said it quite thick.  But, it wasn’t the thickness that bothered me, it was the sensation bumps, that when rubbed repeatedly over my G-spot felt like mild carpet burn.  I can see how they might work to stimulate someone who doesn’t have a sensitive G-spot, but on mine it was very irritating.  Still I tried to get into it for a while, while trying to position the ears on my clit without any success.  So, I turned the ears around and let them stimulate my anus, which was the best way this toy worked for me personally.  After a while, realizing I was not getting turned on by any of the sensations I gave up.  This is one of the only toys I have ever tried that didn’t at some point give me an orgasm.

So, unfortunately, my quest for finding a Rabbit that would work for me was another fail.  This is a shame because I still love the blindfold, the cards, the packaging and the whole Nookii philosophy.  All I can say is that Rabbits, even if they are Ooh La La, are not made for me.  Still if, you love Rabbits and are looking for something with extra girth, you just may find the Ooh La La Rabbit perfect for you.  If you are not a Rabbit lover, NookiiToy still makes some very cool kits like the Weekend Fun Collection, Toys for Boys Kit and the Nookii Game, all of which you can get from Tabutoys.com.

The Siamese by Simply Blown

simply blown 300x266 The Siamese by Simply Blown

Glass sex toys are about the sexiest adult toys on the market, and Simply Blown makes the sexiest erotic creations out of glass in the industry.  I’m not kidding.  Take a look at these beauties (the whole line of Simply Blown is here)!

But, that wasn’t what Scott Slagerman, the glass designer behind Simply Blown set out to do.  According to EroticBiz, Scott didn’t even know that glass sex toys existed “until he walked into the Pleasure Chest and saw some pieces by Phallix.”

After that, a few people who knew he was a glass artisan asked him to make some sex toys, he made a few for friends and Simply Blown was born.

Scott, and the other Simply Blown artisans use “thousand year old traditional techniques still in use by the world’s greatest glass masters” to hand shape their one of a kind erotic masterpieces of glass art.  This technique is much different than the way that Pyrex glass toys are made.

“Every piece is judged by the eye and hand of a glass master, deemed worthy to meet our exacting standards and embody Simply Blown’s philosophy of blending old world style craftsmanship with bold, new innovative designs and refined aesthetics.”—Simply Blown

I could tell right away when I received my Siamese glass dildo by Simply Blown that it was different.  First of all was the weight.  This is one serious piece of glASS at 13” in length and 4.75″ diameter, weighing a couple of pounds!  It came in the loveliest grey minimalist designer box with a plastic window to view your art piece and a tab to slide the toy out of its case.  At first it appeared that the piece was hollow inside, but once I held it up to the light I could see it was a glass shape inside of another glass shape, with the outer glass piece clear with the inner glass piece in red.  This gives the Siamese the most stunning and unique design.

Known as a “double-ender” because you can use either end, the Siamese features a bulbous end and a more slender end, both sleek and softly rounded.  I ordered the Siamese in the hand blown Ruby colored glass, and it reminds me of antique colored glass windows you see in old houses.  Gorgeous!

What I love about glass dildos is that a little lube goes a long way.  Put a little dap on the end of this beauty and its sleek tip slides easily inside.  The Siamese is slightly curved to help reach the G-spot and either end works well for that type of stimulation.  If you prefer to thrust it like a normal dildo using the old in and out, it works perfectly for that as well

I really enjoyed the fullness of this toy as well as how it massaged my G-spot.  Glass toys somehow feel more in tune to your body when you use them, flowing like a cool frozen river of pleasure that melds with your body’s inner curves and moves with your motions.  I know that sounds like a sappy bit of purple prose, but I really can’t explain the feeling of a glass sex toy any better, as the material is so natural and unique.

simplyblown2 300x223 The Siamese by Simply Blown

Simply Blown are simply gorgeous!  They create the most exquisite hand shaped erotic glass sex toys I have seen available in today’s market.  You can buy the Simply Glass Siamese dildo and their other designs at Sextoy.com. Due to the Hand Made nature of their products please allow up to 10 days for shipping.

My Celebrator Vibrator

celebrator vibrator lg 300x201 My Celebrator Vibrator

Okay… Have you ever awoken with the sleepy morning hornies, and you’re standing there brushing your teeth with your vibrating toothbrush and think, “This would make a great sex toy!”  Well, obviously, someone did.  Because that is exactly what the My Celebrator® personal vibrator looks and works like, except, instead of a bunch of bristles on the end it features a little bitty tongue-like clitoral stimulator that flicks you to orgasm.

Warning.  This thing is uber powerful.  If you are the type of person who doesn’t like intense stimulation, then the Celebrator is not for you.  I had to work up to the intensity, working it around my clitoris first, before putting this vibe directly upon it.  If you want a powerful C-gasm in less than a minute, then you will love the Celebrator.  This vibe is absolutely Clitterific!  Next to the Hitachi [my review] and the Fairy Wand [my review], this is the most powerful vibrator I have ever tried.  In fact, it is more intense than the Hitachi, because of the tiny little flickering tip that pin-points the vibrations right to you clit at 4600/9600 Oscillations per minute.

If you find vibrators too weak, this would be an ideal vibe for you and is sure to make you orgasm uncontrollably.  It is also waterproof, so if you were inclined to use it as a toothbrush… Seriously, get this vibe and blow your mind.  Don’t forget the lube with this baby as it is intense.  Also, if you happen to wear out your tip, you can purchase new tips, rather than the whole vibe itself.  Pretty clever.

The My Celebrator Vibrator is available at NippleCharms.com.  It is one of the most effective clitoral vibes I have ever used and has got my Clitterific Seal of Approval!

Dai-do 5 by Big Teaze Toys

daido 5 red 500px Dai do 5 by Big Teaze Toys

The Dai-dos are a new line of innovative, beautifully designed sex toys by Big Teaze Toys.  Big Teaze Toys are known for creating inventive and fun quality sex toys like their popular iconic Rub My Ducky vibrating massagers.  Their new line, the Dai-dos, are non-vibrating dildos (or instruments of enduring pleasure…) crafted from anodized Aluminum alloy.  Not too many sex toy manufacturers are creating metal sex toys, so this alone makes the Dai-dos unique.  But, what really makes these toys stand out is the distinctive design of artistically seductive forms which combine simple sophistication with practical function.

The Dai-dos come in six fundamental shapes, each designed for a certain purpose and function.  I received the Dai-do No.5 which is for “serious g-spot and p-spot (prostate) stimulation”.  At first, I really thought the design was more for anal play, but was assured that the Dai-do No.5 was a G-spot toy.  It was so different for any other G-spot toy I had ever used that I was a bit perplexed about how it would work, but eager to find out.

The Dai-do No.5 is made from solid Aluminum (with stainless steel trim) and weighs 14 oz, so feels quite substantial.  The large spherical handle is ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in your hand and the thick band of slip-resistant silicone makes it easier to position and control.  The Dai-do No.5 features a graduated ball design with three bulbous balls attached to the spherical handle, each getting slightly smaller toward the tip, much like graduated anal beads.  The insertable length is 3” with a diameter of 1 ½” at its largest circumference. Although the length seems trivial, it is more than enough to hit the G-spot which is normally about 1-2” inside the vagina.

For me, it was the second ball from the end that massaged my G-spot best.  I couldn’t quite fit the largest, third ball inside me, and the smallest ball on the end didn’t feel any different than the head of a regular rounded dildo.  It stimulated myself clitorally to begin and came way to quick.  But, that was fine as I was plenty warmed-up upon inserting the Dai-do.  I applied quite a bit of lube for insertion, but didn’t really need as much as I used as it made the ball handle too slippery.  So I wiped off the excess lube and then was able to hold onto the handle much better.

At first, when my G-spot was still unaroused, the Dai-do wasn’t particularly stimulating, but felt interesting.  I slowly moved it in and out, enjoying the cool sensation and getting used to the distinctive feeling of the balls rubbing against my G-spot.  This sensation was definitely something different and unique, something I have not experienced from any other sex toy design.  I wasn’t sure how much I liked it at first but continued to slowly pump it in and out and roll it around inside of me.  Soon—it didn’t take long at all—and the sensation turned from curious and indifferent to very erotic, and I began pumping it harder and faster as my G-spot swelled with pleasure.  Once fully aroused, my G-spot responded to the toy with passionate fondness and in no time I was squirting excessive amounts of hot gushing fluid.  I did this until my hand got tired and I couldn’t come anymore, which left me weak and blissed-out.  I had one of the best night sleeps I have experienced for a long while.

I am seriously impressed with the Dai-do Line from Big Teaze Toys, being one of the most innovative designs that I have seen in quite a while.  Big Teaze definitely deserves an award for this one.  They are gorgeously designed, quality products in which form meets function in the most sophisticated, yet simple way.  The Dai-dos are luxury sex toys and so attractively shaped that no-one would know that they were anything more that art objects, or chic back massagers.  Add to that the sexy metallic Red Devotion or Black Passion colors that the toys come in, and you have a stunning piece of erotic fine art perfectly suited for display.  The Dai-do is tactile and begs to be touched, so much so, that I find myself inadvertently playing with it like a serenity ball while it sits on my desk.  Being made of solid aluminum, the Dai-do is waterproof, non-porous, sterilizable and body-friendly.

Check out the whole line of Dai-dos from Big Teaze Toys.  You won’t be disappointed!

NJoy Pure Wand from Pink Cherry

by Domina Doll on 11/19/2009

NJ.001 500 1 NJoy Pure Wand from Pink Cherry

I have been coveting an NJoy Pure Wand ever since I saw Nina Hartley’s “Guide to Female Ejaculation” [my review] when Anna Mills squirts copious amounts of girl cum while using this ultimate G-spot wonder toy.  Before that, I had squirted on occasion but wasn’t in control of my G-spot orgasms and ejaculations like I am now.  Back then, which was only a few months ago, I was in the process of rediscovering that part of my female anatomy and Nina’s guide got me started on the right path.  From there I read several books, practiced with the correct “tools” and was off to the races, ejaculation-style.

Since then, I have used several excellent G-spot toys (which you can check out in my G-spot Girl’s Resource Guide).  But, I knew that the Pure Wand was the ultimate in attaining G-spot pleasure.  How did I know?  Well, first was all the cooing and praise given to it by reviewers.  But, I was also aware that the G-spot requires two specific qualities to make it effective: 1) an exaggerated G-spot curve, and 2) a firm material.

NJ.001 500 4 NJoy Pure Wand from Pink Cherry

As you can see by the photo, the Pure Wand has a very exaggerated curve.  This curve is important for effectively hitting the G-spot (rubbing, bumping, grinding and thrusting).  The Pure Wand also features two rounded bulbs on each end, one fairly larger than the other.  These rounded bulbs are perfectly designed for massaging the G-spot, and is another feature you should look for in a G-spot toy.  Pointy tips will not do!  The smaller bulb is great for the beginning of your masturbation session and is easily inserted into the vagina while you warm it up.  The larger bulb is pretty big and will make you feel completely full.  It may be too large for some women actually.  I found it a bit of an effort to insert, but once in there it put a pleasurable pounding on my G-spot that left me squirting and shaking.  I also preferred the feeling of the larger rounded head to the smaller one against my spot once it was fully sensitive and ballooning with fluid.

The Pure Wand is constructed of medical grade, stainless steel (the kind of steel used in the pins that surgeon’s use to reconnect joints within the body).  So you know it is 100% body safe.  And, stainless steel is the hardest sex toy material available next to kryptonite.  That makes the Pure Wand a perfect material for G-spot play, because as we know, the G-spot prefers hard, firm pressure.

I have read a lot of misconceptions about how to use G-spot toys (specifically dildos) by reviewers and consumers.  Many of them state that toys with a very exaggerated curve, like the Pure Wand, make it hard for them to thrust the toy deeply into their vagina.  They are exactly right.  This is because G-spot toys are not supposed to go much deeper than 2-3 inches inside the vagina.  For most women, the G-spot is only 1-2 inches deep.  So deep thrusting would actually miss the G-spot entirely.  Consequently, for the many women who have tried G-spot curved toys and think they are not working for them because they can’t use them for deep thrusting, I want to clarify that this is not how the toy is intended to be used.  Sure, short, hard thrusting can work well, once the G-spot is warmed up and fully aroused, but massaging, rubbing and rocking with the toy will work much better for hitting and pleasuring the G-spot.  The Pure Wand, again, is perfectly ergonomically designed to “rock” up and down against the G-spot in a pounding, rubbing movement and is only good for short (1-3 inch) thrusts.  Also, its natural weight (24 ounces) makes it easy to use in this motion with its own momentum.

So, stop trying to reach your cervix with a G-spot toy or you will definitely never find that “elusive” spot!  And, I don’t say that to be saucy.  I say it because I do want women to discover their G-spots and realize the pleasure that G-spot orgasms and female ejaculation can bring.  Maybe I should do I work shop on how to use G-spot toys!

Okay.  I have almost every type of high quality G-spot toy ever made.  How does the Pure Wand compare?  It doesn’t.  Seriously, the Pure Wand is in a category all by itself.  It is the ultimate G-spot wonder toy and is the best G-spot toy I have ever used.  It is indeed worthy of all the hype.  It took me less than two minutes to squirt and have crazy body-quaking G-spot amazing O’s with the Pure Wand.  I also loved the cool feeling of the metal against my vulva and once inserted.  The Pure Wand is excellent for temperature play.  Some women will not like the cold feeling, which is not a problem as you can heat it up with very warm water before play as well.  Finally, the medical grade stainless steel is hypo-allergenic, non-porous and can be easily sterilized in boiling water if you plan to share it with your friends-with-benefits.  The Pure Wand comes in a sexy black box with hot pink satin lining, so also makes an ideal gift.
