10 Best Couples Sex Toys & How to Use Them
Emojibator is a sex toy company that aims to “celebrate pleasure.” Its products are bright, vibrant, and seemingly irreverent—at least on first glance. I first saw Emojibator’s products while scrolling through Urban Outfitter’s catalog last year. At the time, my gut response was to be alarmed by the cherry vibrator that flashed by. When given the opportunity to test the tiny vibrator, though, I leapt at the chance. Cleopatra’s innovative (alleged!) gourd situation emerged in 54 BC, paving the way for a slew of other female sexual pleasure inventions to come.
Insert your flaccid or erect penis into the flaps, and let your frenulum rest on the elevated PulsePlate. Buttons on the side of the Pulse II help you cycle through the different oscillation modes. “I am absolutely blown away by this vibrator and it’s practically the only one that I use at this point,” one person wrote. “It’s the best orgasms I’ve ever experienced in my 45 years,” a user said. One five-star reviewer wrote that the “Empress Tidal is life-changing”.
Don’t be deceived by its size – this petite vibrator stimulates the clitoris with a powerful tapping sensation, with the help of three speeds and six vibration patterns. Our in-house team of reviewers has collectively tried over 500 sex toys—the ones we featured here are amongst their tried-and-true faves. We also asked sex educators and therapists to share the products that have been the biggest game-changers in their clients’ and patients’ solo and partnered sex lives. The final list only includes options that earned two enthusiastic thumbs up. Our favorite palm vibe, the Le Wand Point, has a sleek stainless steel handle and an uber-soft ridged silicone tip. The heavier steel end allows the toy to provide more pressure than an all-silicone option, Finn previously told SELF.
Designed to be worn between your fingers, the Fin is an easy-to-grasp sex toy that can stay discreet during sex, Lisa Finn vibrator, sex educator with sex toy store Babeland, tells SELF. “You don’t have to worry about it slipping from your hands as you play , which is great for mobility and accessibility as well as keeping it from being obstructive or in the way,” they say. It’s also water-resistant, USB-rechargeable, and has three low-intensity settings that you can explore by pressing its only button.
Our panel loved the remote control that comes with this vibrating egg, giving your partner the chance to join in on the fun and adjust the settings. It even comes with an intelligent mode that imitates sex from foreplay to orgasm, so you don’t have to worry about changing the settings at all. Overall, it was a strong performer, with the majority of our the testers achieving a more intense orgasm. This Lovehoney rabbit can be set to your desired temperature between degrees, which our testers thought was a fun, unique feature.
To top it off, it can also be controlled remotely via the Lovense app, or synced up with another toy from the brand, such as its Max 2 stroker. When two toys are paired up, the way you thrust the Nora will affect how your partner’s toy stimulates them simultaneously, even if they’re actually hundreds of miles away. I’ve loved using this one with my long-distance partner, though it just as much when I’m alone. This innovative vibrator comes with a silicone “band” that you can use to keep the toy securely wrapped around your dick, hands-free.
