Blush Nude Impressions – Silicone Suction Cup Vibrator

I got pretty excited when SheVibe first mentioned the Blush Nude Impressions line to me – they’re something we don’t see much of right now. They’re rechargeable vibrators with a suction cup base, crafted from dust-repellent silky-smooth silicone AND I was told the vibrations don’t suck! AND they’re affordable! I was a little wary of the button placement and odd designs but still held hopes that I would like them. I wanted to like them; primarily because this category is slim pickins – you either have battery-powered options from Pipedream (definitely would rather not support them) that have a wired remote handpack or you have other options that are highly realistic and made from dodgy, porous materials. Between the concept and the bizarre designs, at least we can say Blush isn’t copying anyone out there on this line!

So while I will try my best to steer people towards other brands whenever possible due to Blush’s copycat designs and poor social media attitude, this is one time I’m not going to. If the idea of a multi-purpose vibrator with a suction cup base appeals to you, you need one of these.

Boom Olive Rechargeable Vibrator

Can I interest you in a short, weaker version of the Lelo Mona? Mona-Lite! Wait, no. That doesn’t sell it. Hmmm. Would you like to own a vibrator that speaks to your love of posh-looking car interiors with their pale no-kids-allowed leather seats and faux (or maybe not) wood accents? That’s a thing, right? There’s folks out there that perked up at that? Yes! We’re gonna go with that!! Boom Olive, and the rest of the Boom line, appealed to my “gotta own something that looks unique” side. Sadly some of the Boom models have barely any wood trim – just the button. These aren’t as fun to look at.

Womanizer Deluxe Review

I spent months wringing my hands over the Womanizer W100 (the original); I loved it, but it was ugly with a horrible name1 and I couldn’t figure out *why* I loved it. Just going...

Fun Factory Jazzie Review

The Fun Factory Jazzie is just one of my upcoming reviews this year focused on being more inclusive of budgets; of trying to find something that’s decent and affordable. But sometimes there’s not a lot you can say about a sex toy. I find that I can talk more about a vibrator than a dildo, but when I’m kinda neutral about a sex toy then it’s really hard to write about it. And that’s how it is with the Fun Factory Jazzie: this is going to be a quick review because the vibrator is very “entry-level” and simplistic; which isn’t a bad thing, it’s just a thing, and it’s not my thing.

This is firmly a vibrator for someone who knows they want gentle vibrations and a slender insertable. I have felt vibrators that are even more gentle than this, so it’s not something I’d consider completely worthless. Fun Factory calls it powerful, but it’s not. Not the weakest sauce on the block, but on a scale of 1-10 I’d put it firmly at 4, maaaaaybe 4.5. Given the other things I currently have at 5 on my scale, I don’t feel it’s quite a 5. I could personally never orgasm with this, but I knew that going in. I think the vibrations are better suited for external stimulation because what’s there is dampened quite a bit when inserted, while the Jazzie as a whole is nice introduction to vaginal penetration. The silicone has a little bit of give, but not very much. It’s also got a bit of drag so play it safe by making sure you have lube on hand.

Doc Johnson Truskyn Dual-Density Silicone

Doc Johnson Truskyn Review

I’m really excited about the Doc Johnson Truskyn line because: affordability. While I do think that Vixskin is a bit more realistic and Tantus O2 offers people some more visually appealing options like the Cush and Flurry if you’re not into realistics, many people can’t afford to spend $100 or so on a very realistic dual-density dildo. Although, the Tantus Cush and Flurry are priced the same as the most expensive Truskyn at SheVibe. I had a lot of requests last year to review affordable sex toys, and since my reviews are for my readers I have no reason to stick my nose in the air over trying out some lower-cost toys for you. So not only am I happy that this line exists…I’m happy that I LIKE it! Not a single dildo in the line is over $69, and some are under $50! The plugs are super affordable, too, they’re all priced at $25.

Doxy Die Cast Review

The Doxy Die Cast is a fancy-looking titanium-bodied high-powered wand massager, but is it worth spending $200 on? Does it have features beyond the materials that make it worth the extra $60 beyond the Doxy Original? I explore that in this review and compare them heavily. Also: In March, prices increase! Details in the review.

The Womanizer Review

Womanizer Review

I’ve used The Womanizer more, and in various ways, since I first spoke about it; I haven’t learned much, honestly. Yet I still named it one of the Best Sex Toys of 2015 because I like it that damn much. I’m gonna just write about it and apologize. I feel like I’ve failed you, readers. I still haven’t figured out what makes me like the Womanizer so much. I still haven’t figured out who will love it and who will hate it. I have discovered what happens when you (as I warned against) use it during your period. I’ve resisted the temptation to crack the fucker open like a lobster[1. Really it’s only because if I crack it open I won’t ever be able to use it again and I like it too much to kill it]. So hey, let’s just get on with The Most Useless Review I’ve Ever Written.

That really boosted your confidence in me, eh?

The Best Sex Toys of 2015 (and the worst, too) - Featuring the L'amourose Denia and Prism V, Womanizer, Doxy Skittle, Tails and Portholes Nereid Hot Octopuss Pulse Solo, Fun Factory Patchy Paul G5, Doc Johnson Truskyn, We-Vibe Rave.

The Best Sex Toys of 2015 (and the worst, too)

This year I actually didn’t TRY to pick “best” toys that were new to the market (unlike years prior where it was my rule); it just worked out that way. When I went over my list of reviews I realized that I didn’t review nearly as many things as I thought I did. Improvement for 2016! This year’s post features two things that are different from past years – primarily, the video. It’s long (15 minutes) and goes into way more detail about why I love or hate each item on the list, and I even cry at one point. Yes, I’m a sappy fucker! I’ve also picked a “best” item that relates to sexuality, but isn’t a product. You’ll also find out what I’ve got planned for the blog in 2016!

L'amourose Prism Review

L’amourose Prism Review

L’amourose, one of my favorite newer companies, came out with two new vibrators that were created to address complaints/issues people have with the Black Diamond line (which includes my beloved Rosa Rouge and Denia). Since the L’amourose Prism V and Prism VII are so similar I’ve decided to combine the reviews into one. I was lucky enough to get the Azure Blue Prism VII from L’amourose and the Sky Blue Prism V from SheVibe, both in exchange for my brutally honest review. And I’ll tell you right now – I’m very much in love with one of them.

Doxy Skittle Review

We’re so accustomed to being told what/who a sex toy is for that when a company makes an oddly-shaped vibrator for any gender….sometimes we kinda hold it in our hands and go “Okay, yeah, but….how do I USE this thing?”. With the Doxy Skittle there’s really no one right or wrong way and for that reason it may not be everyone’s cup of tea. In fact, there are a few factors that may make this a “no” for quite a number of people. But if you, like me, have a deep love affair with strong, rumbling, earth-shaking vibrations? Well, let me tell you about the Doxy Skittle.

CU in Bed CuRious Wand

While I love all that Njoy does, they haven’t done anything new in years so I’m always open to exploring other quality metal sex toys. A few months ago at SHE NYC I had the chance to talk to the guys of CU in Bed, who make copper alloy sex toys like the CuRious Wand. Why copper? We’ll get to that in a minute. But it’s part of the reason why I’m so torn on recommending it – it’s a trifecta of issues, really: Odor, design and price. I cannot help but compare it to the Pure Wand, so you’re going to see a lot of heavy comparison going on.

L’Amourose Denia Review

The L’amourose Rosa Rouge very quickly became a Top 5 toy for me for its rumbly goodness, intensity, and warming element that made clitoral stimulation with it awesome. The L’amourose Denia lacks the warming...
