A Complete Guide to Using Vibrators in Public Magic Motion
Correspondingly, the world of sex toys and the options therein can have a tendency to skew toward fun, or silly—which is a perfect characterization of Emojibator’s sex toys. Despite its petite size, this device packs a lot of power, particularly on the highest speed setting. Panellists raved about how soft and lightweight the material was and thought the variety of vibration patterns on offer was impressive. I’m nitpicking, but the only thing I find annoying is the 90-minute charge time. If you use the Mini at its highest intensity, you only get 30 minutes of play time. (You get 40 minutes with the Vesper 2.) But it’s a tiny gadget, so it seems reasonable.
Like the Magic Wand, it’s corded, so it can’t die on you mid-solo session. Meanwhile, the aluminum and titanium handle adds some heft, which increases the amount of pressure this vibe can deliver. We still think these toys are worth recommending, even though they didn’t make it into our top picks. (After all, every wand vibe can’t be the best!) Find even more SELF staffer and expert favorites below. Another highly praised rabbit-style vibrator is the We Vibe Nova ($149) , which features a flexible arm that moves with you and has 10 vibration settings. This two-in-one vibrator has a far more modern design than the original Rabbit vibrator.
But just when I thought the sex toy market had reached peak ingenuity, I was proven wrong, when a vibrator inspired by snails went viral on TikTok. These sex toys vary widely in terms of looks, operation, and the sensations they provide, but fall most commonly into two categories. You’re about to have this vibe literally and figuratively wrapped around your finger. You can use it together to spice up foreplay or use it alone when you need some me-time. This vibrating penis ring scores a whisper-quiet two out of five on Babeland’s volume scale. Besides keeping your pleasure sessions on the down low, it also possesses 10 intensity levels, an easy-on quick-release design and a custom fit among its many pros.
Crafted from body-safe silicone, this rabbit vibrator boasts a gentle introduction to dual stimulation. Its compact size, easy controls vibrator, and affordable price point make it the perfect initiation into the exciting world of rabbit vibrators for those new to the game. You have your trusty vibrator, the one that always gets the job done when on the self-love train. For most women, external clitoral stimulation is needed in order to have an orgasm, and that’s not always a given during sex. Sex toys are designed to bridge the gap between what we get from sex and what we want from sex but aren’t getting.
If you’re well-versed in sex toys, you know that a wand vibrator is a must-have for your pleasure tool kit—and if you’re newer to the sex-essories scene, these microphone-shaped devices are a superb place to start. In 2024, there’s no shortage of sex toys to choose from, but the pleasure brought on by the best wand vibrators is second to none. You probably already know and love the Magic Wand vibrator marketed as a “personal massager” (yeah, right) way back in 1968. It’s since become the little black dress, if you will, of sex toy stashes, but there’s more to the genre than ‘ol faithful. The web is bursting with all sorts of fresh takes on the vibrating wand for your playing pleasure, like toys with up to 20 pulsation modes, two-sided designs, and app-controlled, titillating tech.
The folks at Satisfyer sent me a few of their app-friendly toys recently and a partner and I decided to try a few out (for science). On top of some extensive solo research, I’m here to give you a run-down of a few of their app-controlled sex toys that you might want to pick up ASAP. The other side of the toy—which functions as the handle of the wand portion—is a 5.75-inch long dildo with a motor that allows it to vibrate, twirl, or twist. When used as a dildo, the Vibrato can help people who enjoy penetration get theirs, Weiss says. Many vulva-owners enjoy penetration even more after a clitoral orgasm, as the vagina often expands and becomes more lubricated in response to pleasure, she says. As such, she loves that each side of the vibrator can provide a different kind of orgasm.
Its hands-free vibrations can be controlled via Bluetooth using the Lovense app, which also allows you to pass the controls to a partner, whether they’re located halfway around the world or lying right next to you in bed. The Dame Aer is the first air-suction toy that we’ve liked better than our previous picks from Womanizer (the first brand to offer this technology). It’s significantly smaller and narrower than the Womanizer Classic we also like, and it’s made from a softer silicone material that’s more comfortable against the body. Most notably, of all the suction toys we’ve tried, the Aer produces a sensation that feels most similar to oral sex, according to our testers.
If you’re feeling braver, you may want to try a fully insertable “egg”. While this might sound intimidating, it just means the tip of the vibrator is rounded and sits right on the G-spot. If you haven’t heard of the female G-spot, let alone know where it is, don’t worry, we’re here to ask the important questions. “The G-spot is an area of sensitive tissue located inside the vagina that, when stimulated, can create intense pleasure and powerful orgasms,” explains Annabelle Knight, sex and relationships expert at Lovehoney. Your first thought when it comes to this G-spot vibrator is likely, what is that? But this uniquely designed toy is engineered with pleasure-enhancing tech, and it gave one of our testers one of their strongest orgasms yet.
