Review: We Vibe III

November 30th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Yes Yes Yes! Sally was totally wearing the new We-Vibe 3 in the movie When Harry Met Sally. Well, probably not, but if she had been, that O totally would have been real. The highly anticipated We Vibe III looks similar to the first two versions of the popular couples toy, but it’s upgraded. It comes in the signature We Vibe purple color, as well as ruby and teal. It’s made of smooth silicone that has a sleek satin finish rather than a matte one, and this time the toy comes with a remote control! Ah yes, the remote control age of sex toys…welcome to the 21st century. This discreet couples toy fits in the palm of your hand, is fully rechargeable, and can be worn during sex. It dually stimulates both internally and externally, while also stimulating the penis during vaginal penetration. It’s made of quality body-safe material, doesn’t have a strange odor or taste, and it’s eco-friendly because it doesn’t require batteries to work. Simply give it a few hours charge and go! It features 6 different vibrations settings that offer steady vibration and vibration modes that work best for you. This model of the We Vibe is also 40% more powerful than the first two versions of the toy! This toy comes with a wireless charger that has a cover, so it also works as a storage unit for the toy. It comes with the wireless remote control that can be used up to 10 feet away, and the toy is waterproof so it can even be used in the shower or bathtub.

The We Vibe III is easy to charge and doesn’t require plugging the toy in, it simply nestles onto the charging base allowing for a few hours to charge. The silicone material feels yummy against the skin, and you can use water-based lubricate with the toy, and since the toy is waterproof, cleaning it is pretty easy. Wash it with anti-bacterial soap and water after use, or use a cleaning spray or foam on the toy. A lot of women like clitoral stimulation during sex, and the We Vibe offers a way for this during partner sex that is both hands free and fun for both partners. The toy, similar to a slim U shape, is contoured and curved to fit a woman’s anatomy, with one end being inserted into the vagina and pressed against the vaginal wall and G-spot, while the outer part of the toy rests against the vulva and clit, while still allowing enough room for your partner’s penis to slide inside of your vagina. The vibration also offers added stimulation to him along the length of his shaft. The design of the toy is both comfortable to insert and use, and you can wear it in a variety of positions including missionary, doggystyle, and cowgirl. Alternatively a woman can even wear this toy as a solo masturbation toy. It offers hands-free stimulation, while your hands are free to roam your body, as well as allow your hands free to use a dildo or other toy in unison with the We Vibe 3. A full charge of the toy gives you about 2 hours of use, and because there is a motor in both arms of the toy, you get pinpoint stimulation of both the vagina and the clit. The vibration setting is very quiet and discreet too, even on the highest setting. So even if you have guests or family in the next room, you can use this toy while being discreet. I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet this toy was!

You can manually use the toy, with just a press of a button, or you can use the remote control for convenience. You could even wear the We Vibe 3 out to dinner with your partner or to a night out on the town and let them stimulate you discreetly while using the remote! Way more fun than a pair of vibrating panties, and more powerful too. Plus, when you get home, you’re all ready to dive right in and have sex! The U shape offers a nice amount of pliable flexibility, so it should be able to stretch and fit each woman’s unique anatomy. The toy measures 3 inches from top to bottom, and the width at the thickest point of both warms is 1 inch, so it’s pretty slim and allows room for your partner’s dick. The toy offers different vibration settings from a pulsating to a rumbling steady, the vibration power is pretty damn good! Definitely more powerful than the original We-Vibe design, and I was pretty surprised by just how awesome the vibration power was. Definitely enough to get me off alone, so using this with a partner should induce fireworks! The slightly ridge design on both arms offers added stimulation, and the toy is easy to power with a simple seamless button at the top of the toy. Using the remote is pretty simple as well, and it worked well without losing signal to the toy, and since it doesn’t use much energy or anything, it comes with a battery that shouldn’t need replaced, unlike other remotes that require batteries. So that is definitely a plus!  This toy is awesome, definitely the best We Vibe design thus far! I like the convenient charging base, the ease of use manually or with the remote control, the whisper quiet vibrations, and the nice powerful vibrations, all of those things work well together to make this one awesome couples toy!

You can get the We Vibe III for $150 at KamaSutraCloset.com and if you use the coupon code SCARLET15 at checkout, you’ll get 15% off your order!

Pussy: Natural Energy Drink from the UK

November 29th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Need a lil pick me? Can I offer you some…pussy? Pussy Natural Energy Drink is the hot new energy beverage in the United Kingdom. I love the URL PussyDrinks.com – it sounds so naughty, yet it’s actually a drink made of sparkling water, grape juice, lime, and other flavors. It also has natural additives like Siberian Ginseng and Guarana. Each drink comes in a aluminum can with a pop tab. Red Bull gives you wings, right? So…Pussy gives you? Bow chicka wow wow. Too bad it’s only sold in the UK, I wanna try some!

 

LUSH Under the Mistletoe Gift

November 28th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

I love the sweet handmade bath and body items at LUSH. During the holidays they come out with really fun and pretty wrapped gifts and gift tins. One of my favorite sets for this holiday is the LUSH Under the Mistletoe gift box. It comes with a seasonal bath bomb, a shower gel, a massage bar, lip balm, seasonal soap, one of their best selling bath bombs, and a bath melt. All of the items would be great for couples and can be unisex. Cute gift idea and just under $50! (Under the Mistletoe gift at LUSHusa.com)

LELO Seasons Greetings Kit: LELO Siri and Intima

November 28th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

How cute is this LELO gift set? It’s the LELO Seasons Greetings Siri & Intima Gift Set, which combines a newer LELO vibe, the Siri clit vibe, along with the LELO Intima blindfold. Both in a seasonal red color. Such an awesome and sexy gift idea! Perfect for couples, or the sexy female in your life. This set comes with a deeper LELO black gift box that holds both the user manual, LELO satin storage pouch, Siri vibe, Intima blindfold, 1 year warranty, and the Siri charger. Everything is tucked away nicely in the box, and would make a beautiful luxury adult gift. By bundling both products together in this kit, you save money rather than if you were to buy both items separately. Also, the LELO packaging outer box has a seasonal design that says Seasons Greetings rather than just the regular LELO logo. The blindfold is gorgeous and features a satin brocade design, and tied to let you use around the wrists or to tie into a bow. Sexy and sleek, and it can even be used as a pretty sleepmask. The Siri features a slightly more pwoerful motor inside than the older LELO models like Nea and Mia. It’s made of body-safe ABS plastic on the handle, and it’s shaped a little like an egg, with a rounded yet slightly tapered tip for pin-point clitoral stimulation. It also feels lovely on the neck, nipples, and breasts. The shaft of Siri is a lovely soft matte silicone that feels luscious on the skin. Siri is fully rechargeable, an works great with water-based lube and can be easily cleaned with LELO Toy Spray, a sex toy wipe, or anti-bacterial soap and water. Siri is also small enough to be used between two bodies during sex, so it makes a cute couples toy for clitoral and external use. It can even be cradled against the balls or shaft of a cock.

Siri is powered with 4 user buttons, Up, Down, + and -. To turn the toy On/Off, simply press the + key. You can also lock/unlock the toy by pressing and holding the +/- buttons at the same time for three seconds. This makes it ideal when traveling with the toy, or taking the toy with you in your purse or overnight bag. The toy is discreet in size and fits in the palm of your hand. To browse through the toys vibration modes, that range from a steady vibration to a fluttering vibe to a more pulsing vibe, press the Up key, and to go back to a previous setting press Down. To go through the different vibration speeds press +, and to go back to a speed press -. To me, Siri is a little more powerful than the Nea or Liv, but not too much more intense. LELO isn’t known for super powerful vibration, but they’re known for nice vibration that resonates deeply and good design. I personally love the penetrating feeling of LELO’s vibrations, they seem to get me off really well even without an intensely powerful motor. Possibly because of the newer motor, Siri is a little louder than older LELo models in my opinion, not too loud, but at the highest vibration setting it’s definitely louder than my LELO Gigi.

Siri isn’t waterproof, and because of the 4 individual buttons on the control panel, they do have a noticeable seam around each button that could let moisture settle into it easily. So use caution when cleaning the Siri. The Intima blindfold feels lovely, and it feels well made, doesn’t feel cheap or flimsy. It features a shaped eye area for comfortable, and the headband that goes around the head to cover the eyes is stretchy, however it doesn’t stretch too much, so if you have a large head or a lot of thick hair, it might be a fit squeeze. It also comes with ties that can be used on the wrists or tied behind the head in a bow. This fun gift set is really cute and would make a really fun and festive gift for your honey, or any luxury toy lovers on your holiday shopping list! You can get the LELO Seasons Greetings Siri and Intima Gift Set at TabuToys.com for $134!

Review: Crystal Delights Minx Plug

November 26th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Are you lookin’ for a piece of tail? Check out the super luxe and gorgeous Crystal Delights Minx Plug. This anal plug is handblown with high quality clear glass, this small plug measures in at almost 3.5 inches, with nearly 3 inches of insertable length. The slightly tapered bulbed tip is smooth and meant for comfortable insertion. The most unique part of this glass is that the flared base of the plug features real mink! Yes, a fur addition that makes this tail plug such a saucy lil minx! The mink fur is super soft and pretty, albeit, not faux (just a heads up to my vegan readers!). It’s a soft pink color, and when the plug is inserted, the tuft of fur makes it look similar to having a bunny tail. The glass material is smooth and works really well with both silicone and water-based lubes, and cleaning the plug is simple if you wipe it down with sex toy cleaner or anti-bacterial soap and water. Since there is fur on the end, be sure to handle with care as to not get a lot of lube or water on the fur. Fur shouldn’t be heated, so if it gets wet, pat it dry, comb gently with a comb, and allow to air dry. The plug is 1.4 inches at it’s thickest point, so this plug’s size would even be ideal for beginners.

I really like the cute playfulness of the base looking like a tail, and the fit of the Crystal Delights plug is both comfortable and sexy. I like the smaller size, and the clear shaft of the glass. To insert the toy, just grasp the glass neck of the toy, or the glass rim right above the fur. Glass retains heat very well, so the plug warms up nicely once inserted. Glass is non-porous and doesn’t hold onto bacteria, but it’s still a good idea to keep your glass toys nice and clean for hygienic purposes. You can usually boil glass toys, but since this toy has the real fur boiling is out of the question, so you can wipe the toy down with 90% water and 10% bleach solution if you’d like. Lubricant lasts nicely on glass and a little goes a long way, so I recommend using just a small amount of lube on the tip of the toy, and since the neck of the plug slightly sticks out of your ass when inserted, this can help the fur from touching your wet ass/pussy directly, however i can happen during sexual play, so if that happens be sure to wipe the fur softly with a damp cloth. If you want an added bit of sanitary use, you can roll an non-lubricated condom over the tip of the plug. Since you can’t boil the toy, I wouldn’t recommend sharing it with a partner. However, this toy definitely would be ideal for all sorts of couples play and is even fun as a solo plug during masturbation!

This unique and sexy butt plug would make a really fun gift for your lover, or a fun quirky little gift for yourself ;) The Crystal Delights Minx Plug w/ Pink Bunny Tail is for $94.95 at the Crystal Delights online store. They ship very promptly, and wrap each glass toy carefully so that it ships securely, they also ship discreetly in plain boxes. Treat yourself to a lil tail this holiday season!

Minna Ola review

November 22nd, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Meet Ola. The Minna Ola is one of the most anticipated toys in the past few years to come into my collection. I first heard about the toy at the adult novelty expo back in 2009, and I’ve been looking forward to it’s release ever since. Minna Ola is not just any vibrator. Sure, it’s rechargeable, made of quality silicone, it’s a luxury design and has a beautiful appearance not to mention that it’s fully waterproof…however, Minna Ola’s real unique quality comes in her technology. Ola is the first vibrator of it’s kind, this is the first vibrator that is powered by squeeze technology. The top part of Ola, the curved flattened head has a squishy soft silicone pad that you’re meant to squeeze. No buttons to mess with, no controls to browse through vibration, simply squeeze the pad and the vibration will react to the squeeze. A softer squeeze offers low vibration, and the more intense of a squeeze, the higher more intense vibration. Fun! I love this feature. I’m a technology dork, and love knowing how things work and the creative side to what makes a good sex toy, so this toy was really a winner for me. Not only is the design gorgeous, the silicone is a soft smooth matte finish that feels great on the skin. The toy comes with a charger that is pressed against the charging port, no plugs, no open seams. The toy charges with the small metal nubs that connect to the charger that is then plugged into an electrical outlet. This vibe comes with a pretty gray satin storage pouch, charger, and user manual. The toy also comes in a pretty Violet color, or a Deep Rose color.

Minna Ola offers a rounded slightly curved end, and then a more tapered end, the tapered end has the squeeze pad. The squeeze pad is in the back of the toy, and just below the squeeze pad is the Minna logo and below that is the white/metal charging port. On the front of the toy, you’ll see two small seamless buttons. The bottom button is the Power button, which you’ll press and hold for a second to turn the toy on. The top button is the Lock/Loop button. Whats that you ask? Well, you know how I mentioned that the technology inside of Minna was really cool? The squeeze technology is just the beginning, the toy also has squeeze memory! The toy doesn’t come with pre-set vibration patterns. if most vibrators are kind of like those old Casio keyboards that have the present Yankee Doodle songs, well, Minna Ola is a whole orchestra! After turning the toy on, you can squeeze the pad to play with the vibration vibration intensity. Now, once you find a squeeze pattern that you like, press the Lock button, then Ola will vibe it back to you, since it recorded your squeeze pattern…then if you like it, press the Lock/Loop button again and it will keep playing the sequence over and over. L O V E this. So fun, unique, so sexy, and ultra yummy.

The Ola measures about 8 inches in length with with the bottom end being a little over 1 inch around. Minna also offers a Freeplay setting, that works when you turn the toy on, just squeeze and hold the pad, or squeeze different patterns using the squeeze feature. If you want to use for long periods of play I would suggest the Lock/Loop feature though. The other cool thing about this toy is that the squeeze technology makes it fun with a partner, letting your partner squeeze Ola’s pad to create their own pattern to tease you. Since it’s waterproof, the toy can also be used in the tub or shower. It’s silicone, so to keep the material in good condition, only use this toy with water-based lubricants. To wash the toy, anti-bacterial soap and water, sex toy cleanser, or sex cleanser spray or wipes should do the trick. Alternatively you can wipe the toy down with a solution of 90% water to 10% isopropyl alcohol. The toy isn’t too loud, it’s pretty quiet even at it’s highest setting and should be fine to use behind closed doors. The satin storage pouch is nice for storing the toy when not in use. So, how are the vibrations? Pretty awesome. It’s not the most powerful toy in my collection, but it offers a nice rumbling vibration that resonates throughout the skin very well. Squeezing the hardest on the pad creates the most intensity and it’s definitely enough to get me off. The toy can be used clitorally or internally, and the toy even feels nice against the neck, breasts, nipples and stomach.

The squeeze pad powers the shaft of the toy, and all along the wider end of the toy. This end is very slightly curved, so it can be used for internal stimulation and if angled slightly, G-spot stimulation also. I like the intensity of the toy, paired with the sleek design and cool technology. This vibe really is a first of it’s kind, allowing pressure of touch to create intensity of vibration. I love the feel of the vibration and the Lock/Loop buttons, which are both easy to press and figure out even after just glancing at the user manual, the technology is very user-friendly and I like that the pressure of the squeeze can be memorized by the Lock button and then repeated over and over by the Loop control. I’ve been looking forward to Minna Ola for almost two years now and can say that I’m so psyched to finally own this toy! It”s modern design and interactive technology offers a fun and unique twist to most other vibes on the market. Ola has me exclaiming “Ola-la!”

Minna Ola retails for $165, and if you buy the toy from one of my favorite sex toy shops, Kama Sutra Closet, you can use my exclusive 15% discount code! Enter SCARLET15 at checkout for 15% off your Ola order +free shipping!

Review: Vibratex Violet dual stimulator vibe

November 19th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

Meet the Vibratex Violet, no doubt the sister to the Vibratex Rosebud. This brand new Vibratex toy is made in Japan, and comes from the makers of the original rabbit style vibrator the Vibratex Rabbit Habit. This toy is made of body-safe white ABS plastic on the handle and control panel of the toy, and a soft smooth to the touch matte silicone that comes in a really pretty violet color. This toy is made of hygienic and safe materials, and features a dual stimulator design which offers both clitoral and vaginal stimulation. This toy also boasts two motors, one in the shaft of the toy and another in the clitoral stimulator. It offers 4 speeds that range from a low buzz to a stronger medium-high vibration, along with 5 vibration patterns that go from a pulsing buzz to a more long drawn on flutter. The shape of the toy offers a smooth rounded slightly tapered tip for easy insertion, the rounded head features a bulbed shape that is also lightly curved so it’s ideal for G-spot stimulation. The toy gets a little thinner as it moves down the shaft of the toy, and then meets the clioral stimulator which features nubs just inside the inner portion of the clitoral arm of the toy, and and opened little “mouth” on the bud of the clitoral arm that features a delicate little “wing” that adds to the clitoral and vulva stimulation. This modernized “rabbit” style dual stimulator is meant to be more like it’s flower counterpart than a fluffy little bunny though ;) The toy measures about 7 inches in length, with 4 inches being insertable, with a width of 1.4 at it’s thickest point. It requires 4 AAA batteries which are inserted at the bottom of the toy’s handle, simply twist the endcap off and insert the batteries. The toy is not waterproof nor splashproof, so be careful when cleaning the toy. You can clean it with an anti-bacterial toy wipe, cleanser, or anti-bacterial soap and water. Do not boil or clean in the dishwasher. This toy works best with water-based lubricants, which will prolong the texture and feel of the delightfully smooth silicone.

Each part of the toy, both the shaft and the clitoral stimulator, are controlled separately. There are three buttons on each side, one side being the shaft of the toy for vaginal insertion, and the other being the clitoral stimulator for external stimulation. F1, On/Up, Off. F2, On/Up, Off. There are small little lights that will light up above each side of the control that light up to let you know that part of the toy is turned on and vibrating. To navigate the vibration patterns and speeds simple press and browse through the middle button, and to turn the toy off at any time, simply press and Off button. You can also power one side of the toy with a more intense vibration, or a different vibration setting while the other side vibrates at a different speed or pattern. You can leave one side off, and just enjoy the vibration of the internal shaft or the clitoral shaft as well. I like that you can basically customize how you want this toy to vibrate, using the separate control panels. The buttons are pretty easy to push, even with lube on your fingers, and the handle is large enough for grasping and getting a good handle on the toy, the grooves on the handle of the toy also make for easier grip while holding the toy You can aim the inner shaft upward to stimulate your G-spot, and the toy thrusts nicely when you move it in and out. Every woman’s anatomy is not the same, some clits are down further or up higher, hooded more or exposed more, and some inner and outer labia are fuller, so that seems to be the deal breaker with most dual stimulation vibrators  – finding a dual stimulator that fits and adjusts to every woman. The Vibratex Violet vibrator is one of the better dual stimulators that I’ve tried. I like the shape of the shaft, and the clitoral stimulator is flexible, allowing for you to move it to envelope and nuzzle your clit at whatever angle works best for you. Also, with the added wing that flicks nicely during vibration adds more area for the clitoral stimulator to cover. I’m really impressed with this vibrator, this may be my current favorite Vibratex vibe. The color is pretty, the design and shape is unique an stimulating, and the contours and shape of the clitoral arm massages the vulva area really nicely. The toy isn’t whisper quiet, but it’s also not what I would call loud. You should be just fine to use this toy with roommates in the other room. The control buttons are easy to navigate, and the toy offers nice vibration. Definitely a cool new toy from Vibratex.

You can find the Vibratex Violet at SheVibe.com for $$69.99 – She Vibe offers fast shipping and quality service and has great prices on sex toys and more.

My Favorite Flavored Lubes: System JO H2O Flavored

November 18th, 2011 @ Amber St. Clare

 

 

Not too surprising that my favorite flavored lubricants would come from one of my favorite lube brands. I’ve tried many flavored lubricants for review, even though I’m not much of a flavored lube fan, most of them still fall short. Most are either too thick, leave an icky aftertaste, or just plain taste bad and nothing like the flavor they are marketed as. I kept an open mind when first trying System JO H2O Flavored lubricants about 2 years ago, I first tasted their Tangerine flavor and was really happy with it, it was the first flavored lube where I thought “Wow, I would actually use this, and enjoy using it”. Which is saying something for someone who’s not a huge flavored lube connoisseur. I recently just tried two flavors from the line that I hadn’t tried before, and was even more excited because these are two of my favorite flavors: Watermelon, and Pomegranate.

System JO H2O Flavored Sweet Pomegranate lubricant comes in a nice sized bottle and offers a photo of a pomegranate neat the System JO logo. The cap offers a flip top cap that closes shut securely to ensure that it doesn’t spill. If you’re familiar with System JO lubes at all, you’ll know that their line of H2O lubes are super silky and smooth like silicone but are water-based and don’t contain silicone. The fluidity of the formula is more thin than other flavored lubes. Most flavored lubes are thick and I feel like it coats the entire tongue and just feels gel-like in the mouth, where as this lube has the same light and thin texture as their regular H2O line. This is a good thing to me, because the texture doesn’t feel gross in my mouth, and it’s not overpowering in feel, which is good because if you’re engaging in oral sex, chances are you want to taste/feel your partners genitals rather than their genitals covered in goop. This lube is not goopy, I actually think the thinner texture makes for easier spread-ability. Just because this lube is thinner than other flavored lubes, don’t think that means that it’s not long-lasting or that it will disperse too quickly. The long-lasting H2O formula has nice staying power, and I noticed that when adding saliva to it, it seemed to help the flavor linger. I personally thought this flavored lube, albeit thinner, not only tasted better than any other brand of flavored lube that I’ve tried, but it also lasted longer and lingered even when most of the wetness from the lubed was licked away. The flavor of the pomegranate was really yummy, it wasn’t too sugary sweet and it had a kick of a tart flavor, similar to a real pomegranate. Really nice flavor for those who like that fruit, it also smells really good. ($9.95 for a 5.25 oz bottle at FunWares.com)

 

System JO H2O Flavored Watermelon lubricant smells so yummy, just like a watermelon lollipop. The bottle is cute and features a pink color coordinated logo to go with the watermelon photo. The bottle is easy to pour, and with this formula, like their other H2O products, a little goes a long way. A quarter sized drop is more than enough, and since the formula is so smooth and slippery it spreads and glides over the skin really well. The texture feels similar to silicone, but it’s water-based, and like all other H2O products it’s latex safe so it’s compatible with condom use. It does contain parabens and glycerin though, so for those who don’t like using products with those ingredients you should know that it contains both. It doesn’t have artificial sweetener in it like most other flavored condoms, instead it uses fruit aroma/flavor. Not sure how it’s derived, but it probably has to do with the glycerin which can have a sweet taste. It’s not super sticky, and it won’t stain your clothes or sheets. It washes away with soap and water, and is pretty easy to clean up. I didn’t notice a sticky after effect on the genitals, but when on my hands or other skin it did leave a tiny bit of stickiness after it sat on my skin for awhile. It can be easily washed off, or wiped away using a personal cleansing wipe. The flavor smells awesome, and it tastes light and sweet. Definitely an awesome flavor choice for a watermelon lover like me. ($9.95 for a 5.25 oz bottle from Fun Wares)
