  • Toy: Jenna’s Double Play (sent by Lustique)
  • Type: Dual vibe, waterproof, innie/outtie combo, basic rabbit style vibe, 2 AA batteries
  • Manufacturer: Doc Johnson
  • Material: phthalate-free, flexible jelly-like material
  • Price: $24.99
  • SMT rating: 1

The good folks at Lustique have sent me several delightful toys to review, and it’s my pleasure to introduce you to this lovely, pink lady.  Jenna’s Double Play is a waterproof, battery powered, innie/outtie combo vibe designed to give both vaginal and clitoral stimulation at the same time.  It’s made of a phthalate-free free, softly scented, flexible material that feels like an upgrade of the old jelly rubber that used to be so popular before we learned that it was nearly impossible to get clean and likely toxic.  So, if you miss the days of jelly rubber toys, you definitely want to take a look at this one!  The design resembles the classic rabbit vibe type of toys, but without the internal beads or oscillating action, which some folks like and others avoid.

The video above demonstrates how to use the vibe, and how quietly it runs.  Take a look to learn more about it and how to use it.  You can even watch me introduce Jenna’s Double Play to Venus, my loyal stunt vulva.

You know, this is a fun, basic toy, especially for the price.  It’s good for beginners and regular toy lovers, and especially nice for couples. You can use it by itself, or add your fingers for extra clitoral sensation.  Good stuff!

I do hope you enjoy my first video review, complete with catchy intro music!

  • FemBlossom by Emotional Bliss

    FemBlossom by Emotional Bliss

    Toy: The FemBlossom

  • Type: premium battery powered vibrator, heating (rechargable)
  • Manufacturer: Emotional Bliss
  • Material:  hard plastic, with antibacterial silver ions in the plastic
  • Cost: $99.95
  • SMT rating: 1 – 3 (depending on settings), with accompanying heat

The Femblossom comes from Emotional Bliss, a wonderful company with a unique approach to designing toys that stand apart.  They produce especially great products for women just learning to explore their own bodies with toys or who have not been satisfied with other products on the market.  The FemBlossom is no exception, and proves to be a fantastic outty vibe!

My Femblossom was sent to me for review and arrived well packaged, including an AC adapter, two small bottles of lubricant (water and silicone based), and a wonderful instruction manual.  The manual goes over the functions of the toy, including all 9 settings at 3 different levels of power annnnd it also heats!  I should mention that it is made with a silver ion technology in the plastic that gives it anti-bacterial properties when wiped down with water.

The Femblossom is designed as an outty toy, for use on the vulva including the clitoris, but not for insertion.  As you can see from the video, it’s curved to match the body and lay at the outside of the vulva, or directly stimulate the clit by pressing the curved section against the vulva or using the tip of the vibe.  It has subtle texture, not enough to overwhelm but enough to notice.  As you turn up the vibrations, you also turn up the heat.  The power button is located within easy finger’s reach, and you can scroll through the 9 settings using the + and – buttons.  It gets very powerful and very warm, but can also have a mild thrum with lower heat for those who prefer a softer touch, or who like to warm up gently.

Like its inny-outty sister, the Womolia, this is an excellent premium toy with dynamic uses.  Most toys with a powerful motor are good for getting off but not warming up, this one has a range that goes from sweetly seductive to very intense.  The heat function can be both relaxing and stimulating, and proves to be highly enjoyable.

For those who prefer an outty-only vibrator that does not look anything like a phallus, this is a phenominal choice!  It’s easy to use with partners, and to accompany penetration, solo or partnered. The buttons are easy to press and do not require a great deal of finger strength or dexterity and the toy is light and easy to hold. The battery even holds a charge for a long time!  Like the Womolia, I can’t find anything wrong with this toy, and am very happy to give it my whole hearted recommendation as a fantastic toy for beginners and experienced toy lovers!

Sensual Art - the Cecile by Lovemoiselle

Sensual Art - the Cecile by Lovemoiselle

  • Toy: Cecile
  • Type: premium battery powered vibrator (2 AAAs)
  • Manufacturer: Lovemoiselle
  • Material:  Ceramic
  • Cost: approx $100
  • SMT rating: 1 (on high), vibrations are not terribly strong but they carry very well due to the ceramic body

Cecile is a delightful, artistic vibrator designed to please its owner’s senses of touch and sight with its smooth, undulating body and light-to-moderate vibrations.  Those who love sensation play will adore this vibe, as will those seeking a lightweight, very firm toy with far more style than her hard plastic sisters.  The unique sensation of the ceramic is extremely smooth and offers added depth to the transmission of the vibrations.  With its single, well-placed button, control is easy.  This toy is best suited to those who enjoy a perfectly texture-free surface, light to moderate vibrations, a firm phallus, and one that widens gradually toward the base.  And, of course, for those who are ready to be visually seduced.

Reviews will now be called “Play Testing,” thanks to the suggestion of my LDS friend B.  B and the rest our gaming group took a break from one of our board & card game parties (you know you’re secretly jealous) to inspect a couple of review vibes.  Let me tell you, gamers and sex toys are a winning combination!  The video of us checking out the NaughtiNano will be up soon.

Feminine & Mighty - The Glitz G-Spot

Feminine & Mighty - The Glitz G-Spot

  • Toy: Glitz G-Spot (in pink)
  • Type: 3 speed vibrator, waterproof
  • Manufacturer: PipeDream
  • Material:  unlisted, but does specify that it is free of phthalates (yay!)
  • Cost: about $20
  • SMT rating: 1-2, depending on setting

I’m happy to announce that Lustique.com has invited me to join their review team, and so you’ll be seeing a fresh write up of one of their toys every month.  This month they sent over a lovely, glittery pink Glitz G-Spot 3 speed vibe to review.  Believe me, it was a pleasure to help them out! The Glitz G-Spot is a feminine and mighty little toy, with easy controls.  It would make an excellent purchase for women (or couples that include at least 1 female partner) seeking an affordable, quiet, dynamic little toy.  I would be likely to recommend it to for a first-time vibe purchase, too.  Read all of the details after the jump!
