What should I know before buying my first vibrator?

What should I know before buying my first vibrator?

What should I know before buying my first vibrator?

Whether you’ve dealt with non-vibrating sex toys like dildos and butt plugs or not, buying your first vibrator can be a pretty big deal. For many people, it can be the first step in taking control of your sexual pleasure, putting the power into your own hands and becoming a bit more vulnerable in the bedroom.

Not all vibrators are created equal!

Remember that when you’re browsing for your shiny new toy, not all vibrators are created equal. This means you need to be vigilant when browsing through vibe after vibe, as it’s vital to choose sex toys that are safe to use.

The first thing you’ll want to look out for is the material – what is the vibrator made from? Generally, most are made using silicone materials. Silicone is non-porous, meaning it is high quality and will not collect bacteria or dirt. Silicone toys can be easily sterilised and can have a soft to firm feel depending on the design. If you’re not sure what materials to go for, silicone sex toys will definitely be your best bet.

There are also toys created using hard plastic, like ABS and PVC, which are typically non-porous, easily cleaned, and provide a relatively smooth sensation. Like silicone toys, plastic toys won’t collect bacteria and germs, so you can avoid having anything nasty inside you!

Do you like to take your playtime into the bath or shower? Not all sex toys are waterproof! If you want something that can be used in the water, make sure you double check the fine print before taking your vibe for a swim. There are also different levels of waterproofness, which means your toy might only be splash proof, so it’s best to double check so you can avoid ruining your brand new vibe.

Or both?! There are so many options, so it’s good to think about what you’re looking for and go from there.

If you’re not sure what material your vibrator is made from, it’s better to opt for something else so you know exactly what is entering your body at all times. If your toy has an unusual smell or taste, or something doesn’t seem right, better safe than sorry!

Lube!

Lube is essential whether you’re using your vibrator internally or externally. If you haven’t heard yet, lubricant helps keep everything slippery and comfortable, preventing any tearing or discomfort that can occur. A lot of people don’t produce enough natural lubrication, and that’s where lube can help you out – plus it feels pretty damn good!

If you’re using a silicone vibrator, it’s vital that you stray away from silicone lubricants as they will break down the material of your toy! Opt for a water-based or oil-based lube for all your pleasure needs. If you want to switch things up, try out a different sensation like a warming or cooling lube!

Hygiene 101

It might seem like a chore once you’ve done the deed, but cleaning your new sex toy is super important to ensure it stays squeaky clean and lasts as long as possible.

We recommend cleaning your toy using hot water and a cloth. Remember, if your toy isn’t waterproof, you’ll need to avoid getting any water in the motorised compartments. Once you’ve given it a thorough clean, it’s best to use a sex toy cleaner afterwards to give your vibe an extra refresh.

Sharing is caring!

Despite what most people might think, it is possible to share sex toys in a hygienic and safe way, but you do need to take several precautions before you dive into things. This is relevant for people who like to switch vibrators between their vagina and anus, too!

To keep everything safe and clean, your best bet is to wash your vibrator when switching between body parts or partners. This helps to prevent the spread of STIs and ensure you aren’t transferring unwanted bacteria back and forth. Alternatively, if you don’t want to clean the vibe until after your session, you can place a condom over the vibrator. Just make sure you change condoms between each use!

What vibrator should I get?!

With all the variety out there, your next challenge is choosing the vibe that’s right for you, which is no easy feat! However a good starting point is looking at some popular picks, so you can get something that is tried and tested.
