For a lot of us, the lockdowns became a moment that required some sexual creativity- whether it was figuring out how to engage in pleasure with a long distance partner or substituting sub-par hook-ups for phenomenal solo sessions. And I mean, let’s be honest- having to invest a lot of time weekend after weekend on teaching new people *exactly* what you like in that moment starts to get boring and tedious after a while. But you know who never gets it wrong? An amazing sex toy! Whether you are looking to amp it up on your single bed or have some additional fun with your partner(s), sex toys can be a great aid in exploring and indulging. The lack of openness about them, however, can mean that you usually do not have reviews to depend on. So I have rounded up 5 amazing toys that will definitely help you orgasm- and go beyond!

KING COCK 5″ REALISTIC DILDO: This phthalate-free, latex-free, made from hypoallergenic PVC rubber Dildo definitely won’t come before you do. Whether you want to use it for some solo-loving or engage in penetration play with a partner, the hyper-realistic texture of this toy is sure to make you love it. As a classic dildo, it is hand-held and does not need charging- which means that it is ready to go without needing any preparation (other than cleaning). Our favourite thing is that it is always ready to go again- so there is no limit on the number of orgasms you can have in one session!

My Tip: Make sure to keep lube handy so that you have a seamless and amazing time!

ROMP HYPE G-SPOT VIBRATOR: This velvety soft vibrator can become your pleasure aid for up to sixty minutes at once- we are talking a full hour of back-to-back orgasms! Whether you are going at it solo, enjoying phone sex with a long-distance partner, or guiding someone to your g-spot, this is definitely a great addition to the bedroom. Our favourite thing about it, however, is that it comes with four vibration patterns- making sure you can switch things up and experience something new every now and then!

My Tip: If you are using this with a partner, remember to clean the toy if you plan on switching to reduce the risk of STDs.

ROCKS OFF ASS-BERRIES VIBRATING PLUG: The best thing about this one is definitely the texture! The Blackberry variant of this anal plug is 1.7 inches in diameter, 2.5 inches in insertable length, and 4.5 inches in total length, and if you desire one with smaller dimensions, you can explore the Raspberry variant – which means that there is no limit to its capacity to satisfy you or your partner(s). What has us recommending it is the fact that it has seven vibrating functions- and if you are feeling creative, you can always use those to stimulate other parts of the body. It’s button function is simple- and it is very easy to wash despite the berry texture.

My Tip: Do use an anal relaxant or lots of lube before engaging in anal play or penetration for safety.

SATISFYER LOVELY HONEY MINI VIBRATOR: Never judge a book by its cover, but definitely judge this vibrator by its name. Besides being waterproof and rechargeable, this ‘satisfyer’ delivers again and again because of its perfect rounded tip that helps you edge into clitoral stimulation- and then really get into it. Of course, like with all vibrating toys, you can definitely use it in other ways as well. Our most favourite thing about it is it’s size- for even though it is incredibly amazing at its job, it is small and discreet. It also comes with a removable cap that can help you carry it on trips without any hassle of contamination. If you are looking for something small but sensual- definitely go for it!

My Tip: Make sure to always use a toy cleaner pre and post a session so that you can have the maximum fun without worrying about hygiene.

SATISFYER LOVE BREEZE AIR PULSE STIMULATOR: If you are looking for something different but don’t want to go too much out of your comfort zone, then this toy is perfect for a little adventuring! Unlike most vibrators that require contact with your body, this one functions on air pulses that stimulate all your pleasure points. Moreover, it comes with eleven settings- which gives you a lot of room to experiment, but also an amazing opportunity to pick a favourite! Our favourite thing is that it comes with rechargeable batteries- so you will never have to worry about having to discreetly charge it. Compact enough to fit in your hand, it will definitely take you to places that will make you want to become a regular visitor!

My Tip: Always remember to use water-based lubricants because they typically have lesser chemicals and are safer for you and/or your partner(s).
