What every woman should know before buying a vibrator

Published on October 17, 2019

Thinking of spicing up your intimate life? If you're adventurous and eager to try new things, you might have already considered a vibrator. But do you know what to look for in a vibrator?

Relax, we've got you covered. Here are the essential things you need to know before buying your first vibrator.

Choose the right vibrator for your needs

How do you intend to use the vibrator? All vibrators are designed to enhance your sexual experience. However, some are made for clitoral stimulation, while others are designed for G-spot stimulation. If you're looking for a vibrator to stimulate your inner sweet spots, a curved vibrator is your best bet.

Size really matters

Even with vibrators, size is crucial. The good news is that you can choose the size that suits your sexual needs. If you prefer thicker or longer vibrators, the choice is yours. However, the girth is more important, as you can't alter it like you can with the length.

Material matters

Vibrators come in different materials, but silicone is the preferred choice due to its ease of use and comfort. Just remember to never use silicone-based lube with silicone vibrators.

Consider the noise level

You don't want a vibrator that announces to your neighbors that you're having a romantic moment. Opt for vibrators that don't produce a loud noise when in use.

Set a budget

Vibrators can be pricey, but it's essential to prioritize quality over cost. This is something that goes into your vagina, after all.

Store it safely

Before you buy a vibrator, you'll also need to know how to store it. Not all sex toys should be stored together, as some can react with each other. To be on the safe side, wrap each toy separately and then put them in one bag.
