DreamToys Glassworks

May 29th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Look at their gorgeous glass dildo from DreamToys Glassworks! Their glass dildos are so pretty. I’m picky about glass toys, as I am with any product that goes inside of my body, so when I find a glass sex toy that is both pleasing to the eye and also is quality and functions wonderfully I can’t help but get hooked. LoveDreamer.com has a gorgeous selection of these pyrex glass toys. I recently got 3 of the toys, and was really impressed with their quality. Even their packaging was pretty. Each glass toy comes in a white gift box with the DreamToys Glassworks logo. It opens up to showcase a padded satin covered base with the toy on top. The box can be used for toy storage or just re-purposed in another way, it’s a really nice box with ribbon hinges. I tried the DreamToys Cherry Rock Candy Glass Dildo, pictured above, which is a a 9.5 inch dildo, with a 2 inch handle, so about 7 inches of insertable length. The handle is smooth and rounded, while the shaft of the toy has raised detailed dots on it. The dots are small and really do kind of resemble rock candy, except not as jagged. The pink cherry color is very light and more translucent than actual color on the dildo. Just pretty, with a slightly curved tip, so it’s great for G-spot play. Highly recommend for those who enjoy added texture to their dildos, but not recommended for those who are sensitive to texture and prefer a smoother shaft.

One of their newest designs is the DreamToys Luscious Lime Dichrotic Glass Dildo, which is truly stunning. It’s a double ended dildo made of pretty cobalt blue glass that is curved on both ends for G-spot stimulation. Both ends of the toy are rounded and smooth with a pin pointed tip for easy insertion and G-spot stimulation. The shaft of the toy in the middle features a single swirl design of glitter infused dichrotic glass. The glitter is really pretty and the colors look lime green and greenish yellow, both of which look awesome paired with the blue glass! This piece impressed me so much, I thought the photo of this dildo looked nice on the website but it actually looked even nicer in person. Also, since these toys are glass, they can be boiled for sterilization. They also hold temperature well and can be warmed up or cooled down in a bowl of warm or cool water. They also play well with all types of lube including silicone. If taken care of, glass toys can last a really long time. When using glass toys, they should be stored in a nice place where they will not be scratched. All glass toys should be checked for chips, scratches, and other imperfections before use. On glass toys lubricant also lasts longer than when used with a porous material such as plastic, and usually with glass toys a little lube goes a long way.

I also tried out one of their other new designs, the DreamToys Lollipop Dichrotic Glass Dildo. This dildo is really unique and pretty. It’s a double dildo, and one end can be inserted or used as a handle. One end is rounded with a circular head, the circular head features a glitter dichrotic design that is so pretty to look at! It’s even nicer in person. Then it features a small ridge on top of the rounded ball, it then gets a little smaller on the shaft, leading up to a little thicker of a shaft that leads into a phallic realistic looking penis head. The glass of the toy is a light lavender, with a pink head. The head of the dildo is nice and features a good cock rim and it’s also slightly curved for G-spot stimulation. Check out the photo below for a close up shot of the glitter in the handle!

Review: Tenga Flip Hole Black – Male Masturbator

May 24th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Japan is known for their technology and fashion, but they certainly shine when it comes to male masturbators. The only male masturbator on the market that seriously shows the Fleshlight who’s boss is the Tenga Flip Hole Black. Not only is this masturbator sleek, and stylish, it’s also cleverly designed. It’s affordable, discreet, and super stimulating. I’m a female, but even I was intrigued by this cool toy and couldn’t help but want to take a closer look. Now look at the toy, it looks more like an iPod accessory than a sex toy, right? This is a plus for men, I think, because you could leave it on your nightstand or your desk and chances are no one will know what it is. Not only that, but it’s not anatomical, it doesn’t look like a faux pussy or a mouth, which is a good thing for men who think the idea of sticking it in a fake vagina makes them feel silly. This toy comes in a clear plastic container, and it also comes with 3 Fliphole lotions: Mild, Real, and Wild. Each “lotion” is lubricant with a slightly different feel and texture so you can choose which you like best. Real has the feel and consistency of vaginal lubrication, Mild is a little thicker and is meant to last longer, and Wild is a little sticky in texture and has a different feel than the other two in texture. The design of the toy itself is really cool. See in the photo above, the three gray circles? Those are buttons. No, you don’t stick your dick into them! They aren’t holes meant for poking, but buttons to push while in use to help create suction and depth as you use the toy. This feature is beyond cool, but I’ll get into that later.

In the photo above, you can see the entry of the toy, on the bottom. The opening of the toy is nice and tight, but definitely has a lot of stretch to it to grasp your dick firmly. The material of the toy is soft to the touch, but is also firm and gripping. This particular Flip Hole, the Flip Hole Black, is known to be firmer and more snug than the original Flip Hole. The inner canal of the toy is made of a TPR Silicone material that feels like a jello material, so that it hugs your dick nicely and will fit snugly around the girth of your dick. Look at the entry hole in the photo above, see that seam that goes through the center, that is where the toy opens up! This is how you open it to clean the inside. The cool thing is that upon opening it, you’ll see that the inner canal is on each side, so it’s literally hugging your dick when you slide your cock inside. The inner canal textures a variety of textures: The Waving Ball, which features a ribbed feel and a circular shape, then it goes into the Cross Wall which has light ridges, then it goes to the Brushing Edge which is sightly wider and features a tight opening with fan-like arms that brush the dick. Those textures are on on side of the sleeve (the top or the bottom depending how you hold the toy). The other side features the Moving Ball texture which features two detailed balls that roll against your dick as you slide into the sleeve, then it goes into the Orb Shelter and Core Orb that features a tight area with nubs, then leads into the End orb when your dick meets a soft balled end. You can see the textures shown in the image below.

Cool huh? Not just one or two textures, but *all* of those textures working at one time, each and every time you slid into the toy! To clean the toy, you open it at the seam, wash with hot water and allow to air dry until you use it again, or store it back in the plastic cylinder container. Washing out the inner sleeve is pretty simple, just make sure you let it air dry while open, you don’t want water moisture getting stuck in the toy as it can bring bacteria. You can also use this toy with any water-based lubricant that you want, best not to use silicone lube as it may damage the TPR Silicone material. To lube up, you can apply the lotion/lube in the toy before snapping it closed, you can also apply some to the tip of your cock as you enter the toy. The wetter the better usually, as this makes it feel more life-like and stimulating over the glans of the penis and the shaft of the cock. You can grasp the toy and pump in and out of it, or you can use your thumb on the gray buttons to control the suction and feel of the inner canal. By pressing the buttons you can choose how snugly it grasps your dick, the amount of hard or light suction it provides and it also helps to move the textured chambers inside of the toy.

In the photo above, you can see the toy opened up. See the cool texture inside of the toy? This is also where you rinse the toy out after you’re done using it. Since I’m a chick, and therefore, sans penis, I had to offer up this cool toy to one of my male buddies. Needless to say, he was pretty psyched to try it out and see how it compared to the Fleshlight, which he already owns one of. My friends used the toy for about a week before even letting me know what he thought. I thought maybe he just hadn’t gotten around to using it, or maybe he didn’t like it. Turns out, he loved it! He said the feelings were intense, and he loved the control that the buttons gave him. It took him all week to “test” it a few times ;) He assured me that this is the best masturbator he has ever tried! He said that the different chambers inside of the toy felt like nothing he had experienced before during masturbation with any other sleeve, and that though he’s still rather have sex with a female, the Flip Hole Black made him orgasm harder than he expected and that it’s become his new best friend. He said that he thought it might be complicated to use, he was worried that the gray buttons might be difficult to push or to navigate. He also thought he was supposed to slide his dick into one of the gray buttons when he first saw the toy, then after opening it quickly realized that the opening was at the bottom. In his mad dash to try it out, he apparently overlooked a few things ;) He mentioned that out of all of the lotions, he liked the Real the best, but that he ended up using some of his own go-to lubricant that he usually uses to masturbate. He mentioned that he added more lubricant the more he used the toy to make sure that it stayed slick. He also said that cleaning it out was easy and didn’t take more than a few minutes. He said her liked the style of the sleeve and said that it’s one of the coolest looking male toys that he’s ever seen, and I have to agree. Even though I couldn’t test the toy out myself, I did lube up a few fingers and give it a good once over before gifting it to my friend. I have to say it was beyond squishy and stimulating on my fingers, it was the most realistic masturbator that I have ever fingered! Thats saying something too, since I’ve fingered my fair share of male masturbators sleeves. I really liked the snug feeling, and it felt awesome when it was all wet and lubed up! This is definitely in my list of toys that men should own!

Want to take the Tenga Flip Hole Black for a spin? Tabu Toys is selling it for $99.75 – which is an awesome deal for the feel and the fact that you can re-use this toy over and over to your dick’s content!

DVD Review: Loving Sex The G-Spot & Female Ejaculation

May 20th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Content Warning: This review contains nudity and explicit DVD screenshots, if you’re not 18 years of age or older, please leave this website and go to Scarleteen.com instead.

Ever since reading Deborah Sundahl’s The G-spot and Female Ejaculation book, I’ve been really interested in learning more about just how the G-spot works, and in that, I’ve been fascinated with films and books that showcase females ejaculating. So when I found this awesome Loving Sex DVD from Deborah Sundahl, I thought that after reading her book it only made sense to check out the DVD! The G-spot & Female Ejaculation DVD pretty much covers all the basics for newbies who are just learning about G-spots, or lovers who are interested in female ejaculation, or even those who already ejaculate but want to know more about the process. This DVD is educational, stimulating, and fun to watch. Deborah Sundahl tells us about the G-spot, how it works, where to find it, and reminds us that all women have the ability to find their G-spot and in that, if they choose, have the ability to squirt. The DVD covers the basics of an Introductory explanation of the G-spot, a lesson on how to find and stimulate you (or your partner’s) G-spot, along with how to stimulate the G-spot with a toy, and how to stimulate your G-spot with sex positions that you and your lover can try. I found it all really informative and fun to watch. To me, none of the scenes were boring, instead I remained engaged in watching and have already suggested this DVD to a friend! I’ve watched this DVD twice, and both times I ended up being so aroused that I had to take a break to stimulate my own G-spot! ;)

The DVD features real-life couples (I love love love this fact, nothing about this DVD feels like porn, nor does it feel fake with contrived orgasms) who enjoy the experience of female ejaculation. We see couples who try different sex positions, couples who achieve squirting orgasm through oral/manual sex, and dildo/vibrator masturbation. We also see solo scenes of women who stimulate their G-spots in a variety of ways, all coming to an explosive squirting orgasm. It was so fun to watch each women work her G-spot, and watch her reactions. Some women prefer slower build up and stimulation in more of a milking sensation, while others preferred fast hard pumping. Nearly all of the scenes involving couples were stimulating to me, the couples truly looked in tune and you could tell that the male partners truly enjoyed giving their lady a squirting orgasm. I found this DVD to be very erotic, and the fact that it shows us exactly what a G-spot looks like (not a drawing, an actual G-spot aroused and showing through the vaginal opening!) and just how it reacts to touch, what it feels like from the tail of the G-spot, to how it feels as it engorges and fills with prostatic fluid. Honestly, I can’t say enough about this DVD. A lot of people have the wrong idea of female ejaculation and think it’s urine since it’s expelled through the urethra, but like male ejaculate comes from the urethra of the penis, as does fluid from the female urethra. Semen isn’t urine, nor is female ejaculate. I love that this DVD showcases both knowledge about the G-spot (urethral sponge) and visuals that show female ejaculation in action!

In the above screenshots you can see one couple where the woman is stimulating her G-spot using the Crystal Wand dildo while sitting on her partner’s lap, in the next screenshot is a shot of a couple using a Njoy Pure Wand, the next screenshot is a couple showcasing a sex position that aides in G-spot stimulation, and the last screenshot is a woman ejaculating as her partner helps to stimulate her G-spot. A lot of the couples were really passionate and I found that truly sexy, one of my favorites were the scenes with the couple in the last two screenshots. Their sex was steamy and at one point as he enters her from behind, she gushes female ejaculation all over the floor at their feet. Super hotness! It also has a great scene of a woman masturbating in front of a mirror and she climaxes several times while squirting on the mirror. There is another scene of a woman using a Hitachi Magic Wand with a G-spot attachment who also ejaculates. A few of the couples talk to the camera and explain what they like to do to stimulate the G-spot together. As a female I felt empowered and sexy while watching this DVD, and though I am familiar with G-spot stimulation, I could definitely see women who aren’t familiar with G-spot stimulation truly liking this DVD. It’s an awesome video for women and couples alike.

I can’t gush enough (pun intended) about this DVD, it’s wonderful and I’m so glad I got the chance to check it out. You can find The G-spot & Female Ejaculation DVD at TabuToys.com for only $25. Honestly a great deal for those who are new to G-spot stimulation or those who love it and want to know more!

Fleshlight Girls Tori Black Forbidden review

May 13th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

After recently reviewing the Tori Black Lotus Fleshlight with the pussy orifice, I was curious to check out the other Tori Black FL, the Fleshlight Girls Tori Black Forbidden. This masturbation sleeve is molded straight from Tori’s ass, and is meant to visually look and feel similar to the act of anal sex. Tori’s cute tushy was molded and formed with Fleshlight’s patented SuperSkin and feels soft and squishy to the touch. The fleshtone color shows two mounds to represent spread cheeks and a tight anal opening, on the right side is an imprint of Tori’s signature. The sleeve comes with the white pearlescent FL case, along with a sample of lube, a color pre-printed autographed postcard of Tori, and it comes in the re-useable Fleshlight Girls aluminum case. This sleeve plays well with water-based lubricants, and the cleaning of this sleeve is easy and self explana-Tori (get it?). You can wash the sleeve with hot water, after turning it inside out.Let air dry completely before turning right side out again. Also, a little pat down with some talc powder will keep the material of the SuperSkin is good condition for many (many) uses to come. Literally. The sleeve is stretchy and will fit both girth wise and length wise to fit any penis size up to 10 inches in length. The case is pretty easy to hold, which means you can use this masturbator in a variety of positions from lying down to standing up to sitting in a chair watching porn. You can also use this toy with a partner too, and let your lady stroke the masturbator up and down your shaft. The opening of the orifice is tight yet stretches to accommodate fingers a dildo or a penis. Since I’m a female I usually give each Fleshlight the once over with my fingers and a dildo.

The inner sleeve texture of this Fleshlight is the Forbidden, the anal texture, that starts with a tight ribbed canal that goes into a swirled tubed texture, that is meant to mimic the feel of anal sex. A great way to use this Fleshlight sleeve is to soak the entire sleeve (not in the case) in pretty warm water for 5 to 10 minutes, dry it off, then slide it into the case. Water some lubricant between your fingers and slide it over the shaft of your erect cock and over the opening of the orifice. This will warm up the SuperSkin material and give it a more closer-to-real feel. After lubing up two fingers I slide them inside of the sleeve and really liked the tight opening, it grabbed my fingers firmly, while the tips of my fingers probed deeper into the sleeve to feel the inner texture. The swirly canal is really unique and fun feeling, and I could imagine how good it would feel on a penis. I then inserted a dildo into the sleeve opening as I thrust the toy in and out of the sleeve, the sleeve gripped the shaft of the dildo nicely and created a decent amount of suction. I would highly recommend this Fleshlight to any Tori Black fans out there, this would be a fun way to get off while watching one of her porn films. It’s also a great pick for a Fleshlight newbie who enjoys the tight stimulating feeling of faux anal, and it would be good for Fleshlight pros who like trying out the different orifices and textures.

You can find the Fleshlight Girls Tori Black Forbidden at PinkCherry.com or PinkCherry.ca (if you’re in Canada) for $79.95!

Review: OhMiBod Freestyle G

May 11th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

As a long time fan of the innovative OhMiBod sex toy designs, I was happy to hear that they created another design in the Freestyle shape, the Freestyle G. Like the original Freestyle, this vibrator is wireless and works with music or any other audio. What makes it different than the original though, is that it comes in two colors, both Pink and Purple, and the tip of the head is curved for G-spot stimulation. The toy comes in a pretty OhMiBod box, that looks classy and clean, then the box opens to show the toy, a wireless transmitter with batteries (2 AAA batteries are included), and a charger. Yes, this toy is rechargeable, just like the previous Freestyle model. You can charge the toy right in the base of the toy, by connecting the charger and plugging it into any wall outlet. The toy is made of body safe ABS plastic and a soft velvety PU coating that feels similar to velvet cote. The toy is easy to clean with anti-bacterial soap and water, or toy spray or wipes. It works great with water-based lubricant, and the smooth surface of the toy helps lubricant stay right where you need it. The slim body of the toy measures in at a little over 6 inches in length (5 inches insertable) , and a little over an inch in diameter. The shaft of the toy is straight and smooth until it reaches the tip of the toy, which curves slightly into a pin-pointed tip that is great for clit stimulation, or used internally for G-spot stimulation.

While this is a toy that is meant to be used with music, it can be used as a stand alone vibrator. It boasts 7 vibrations patterns that work without music. If you want to use it with music, you can connected the wireless adapter to your iPhone, iPod, or any other audio device, and the toy will vibrate along to whatever song or sound that you’d like! It’s really cool, I like the technology behind the toy, the modern design of the vibe, and the fact that it’s rechargeable as well as works along with your mp3 player without having to be plugged right into it. The cordless design makes for easier use and more time to spend and enjoy using the vibe. The vibrations are pretty quiet, and they offer moderate to low vibration speed. At it’s highest it’s nice, but definitely not my strongest vibration in a toy. I also would have loved if this toy had been made of silicone, but other than that, it’s fabulous. I like creating playlists on my iPod that specifically are used for getting off with my OhMiBod Freestyle G. The other cool thing is that you can use this toy with a partner, letting them choose what song to tune into and get you off to. You can also plug the wireless transmitter info your computer, which means if you Skype, you could get off to the sound of your partners voice, even if they are away on a business trip or long-distance! Cool huh? I love the fun innovative technology that makes this toy unique, usable, and highly sexy.

If you have an iPhone, you can download and use the OhMiBod App, it lets you control your OhMiBod vibe straight from the touchscreen of the phone!

“Feel the music” with the OhMiBod Freestyle G vibrator for $89.95 at FunWares.com!
