    1. A powerful miniature wand vibrator created with supple silicone for a soft-touch feel and 20 functions to take you right to that blissful, blurry edge.

    Promising reviews: "This is the first toy I’ve ever bought, and it deserves five stars. I’ve only used it three times since I’ve bought it, and it hasn’t disappointed me once. Within two minutes, I was seeing fireworks everywhere, whereas it would’ve taken me closer to 10 minutes using my hand alone. It really gets straight to the point...almost too fast. I 100,000% recommend this product." —A Very Satisfied Girl

    "My partner and I have had so much fun with this! It's so soft, and all the different parts have such different sensations. The bullet is so strong too; I can only use it on the first setting!!

    Promising reviews: "Love the product; my first purchase of a masturbator, very snug and stimulating. I don't consider myself very big girth-wise, but this is very snug yet 'adaptable.' It is extremely stimulating after orgasm as the toy stays tight around your very sensitive head, shaft, etc. Appears very durable; use water-based lube. 'Sucking' sound is rather stimulating depending on how you hold/use the toy. Easy to clean, pliable." —Terry

    "First toy for husband; he was really surprised at how nice it felt. We did parallel play to get him comfortable. Unbelievably soft but firm enough for resistance. Easy to clean — we have some light fabric towels to pull from one end to the other to get fully dry." —Ashwdwrd

    Get it from Amazon for $28.89 (also available in opaque black and white).

    Promising reviews: "These were great for my entry into anal play; I think the material and size were great with not having much experience. The purple one felt incredible for both my partner and I when he was penetrating me vaginally at the same time. All in all led to a very fun night." —Paige

    "This product is perfect for those beginning to experiment and play. Three separate sizes and shapes really helped us ease into the process. Great product for an affordable price. Can't go wrong buying this product, and I highly recommend these plugs to be added to your toy box." —Scotty
