    Toy Maker: Fleshlight

    So, what is a Fleshlight?

    Jenna Haze (Forbidden)

    For the guy who indulges in male masturbation tools to simulate the feeling of being inside a woman’s vagina, the Fleshlight has been around for ages. But for the average guy on the street who fancies his hand more than anything else, you’d probably be thinking it lights up a dark room. Well, you’re almost right, the exterior casing resembles that of, you guessed it, an actual flashlight with a cap at the end that allows you to vary the amount of pressure you feel while being inside.

    Made of medical and food grade, phthalate-free polymers, the Fleshlight’s insert is soft to touch and feels almost like real skin. Couple the experience with enough lube and it’s probably the closest feeling you’d get to being inside a woman. With multiple designs and textures within the “tunnel”, you’re always spoilt for choice and when you get bored, a simple switch of the insert is all you need. Did I mention that the Fleshlight is also super simple to clean and maintain?

    Designed and marketed by Interactive Life Forms, Fleshlight has been around since 1998. Steve Shubin, the genius behind the Fleshlight was awarded the patent for a “device for discreet sperm collection”.  Since then, Fleshlight has sold more than 6 million pieces worldwide and has expanded their product range to include a whole variety of pleasure products.

    Taking things a step further than most other companies

    , Fleshlight created a range of Fleshlight Girls and Fleshjacks which are custom-molded sleeves made from the exact molds of popular pornstars’ intimate parts. The vulva, mouth and anus exact replicas of your favourite pornstars simply for your entertainment. For those on the go, Fleshlight also comes in more discreet molds and even allows you to custom build your own model.

    Fleshlight, the world’s #1 male masturbation tool, use it yourself or with your partner. It even works when she’s on her period.

  • Tenga Egg

    Tenga Egg

    “Easter arrives early” – Shane

    Before my girlfriend gave me a pack of Tenga Eggs for Easter last year, I had never tried a masturbation toy and always relied on my hands to do its job.  Being a guy and influenced by porn, I never thought much of male sex toys and what they could do for me.

    Toys enhance sex lives and the Tenga Eggs provides a new dimension for male masturbation.  The Japanese have always been lauded for their twisted creativity but the Tenga Eggs are an exception to the rule.  Each set comes with 6 different styles (Silky, Spider, Clicker, Wavy, Twister and Stepper) with a neat white packaging.

    To open, simply unwrap and twist the shell, which will reveal a soft stretchable and jelly like egg.  Each Egg conveniently comes with a small pack of lube which is poured into the Egg before use.  I like the inner ribbed design the Egg provides which feels really good on my penis.

    Trying it on for the first time, it looked and felt weird with the Egg on top.  Once I begun stroking the Egg, I felt the sensation growing more intensely.  What I enjoyed most was the ability of the Egg to stretch all the way down my penis, covering the entire shaft with the ribbed lube interior.  With my mind creating sexual fantasies and a new sensation engulfing my penis, it wasn’t long before I came hard into the Egg.  I like the additional fact that my cum is contained inside the Egg as compared to all over when I am use my hands, making clean up quick and easy.

    The Egg can be reused for another 3-4 times if it is washed and cleaned properly.   But with another 5 different styles to try, there wasn’t a need to reuse more than twice.

    A drawback is that it can get a bit messy sometimes when the lube gets everywhere due to the thrusting and with its simple design, the Egg does not provide any additional visual stimulation.

    All in all, the Tenga Egg provides a new sensation to guys who want to try a masturbating toy.  Compact in size, it will fit any penis, accommodating up to 12 inches in length.   The price of the eggs and its re-usability function means it is great value for money.  I personally use it when my girl is on her period or when I want extra spice while having my own personal time.  Once in awhile, we use it during foreplay when my girl gives me head while the Egg is stretched down my entire shaft.  These Eggs are indeed a pleasurable treat to all penises out there!

  • Rianne S – Matryoshka

    Rianne S – Matryoshka

    “Luxury in your hands”

    The Rianne S Matryoshka vibrator simply oozes pure class and luxury. From its packaging right down to the vibe’s curvy design, the Matryoshka is one stylish sophisticated toy that raises the bar for all others to follow.  Inspired by the Russian Matryoshka dolls, I had been wanting to try it and was thrilled to be finally getting the chance to do so.

    My first impression of the Matryoshka box was that of something coming out from a jewellery store.  Removing the lid from it’s sleek purple exterior, one will find a user manual, charger, beautiful cream satin pouch, charging stand and the vibe itself.

    The Matryoshka is made of soft matte silicone, no bigger than the size of my hand, with a small top and rounded bottom.  I love simple to use vibes and the Matryoshka comes with two buttons, one to control the intensity and the other to control the vibrating patterns.

    The shape and smoothness felt fantastic when I used it on my nipples, and there is an extra tangy sensation when pressed against my clit.  Lube use is optional but it makes the silicone even smoother when applied, giving it an extra silky touch.

    Pros

    Ergonomically designed to fit comfortably in my palm, and I love the feel of its super smooth silicone rubbing against my skin.

    Being someone who loves masturbating in the shower, the Matryoshka is waterproof and can be enjoyed without any worries.  I just made sure I dried it completely before charging thereafter.

    With five different patterns and vibration modes, the Matryoshka is powerful but surprisingly quiet.  And the lid that covers it during charging makes it extremely discreet, allowing me to leave it on by bedside table without showing any hint of its real purpose.

    There is an additional travel setting to prevent any unwanted attention and with its compact size, fits nicely inside any hand carry bags.

    Cons

    Being a clitoral vibe and massager, the Matryoshka does not provide the length and pointedness for thrusting.  This will be a factor for ladies who enjoy penetration as the vibe only allows for shallow insertion.

    Before using, the Matryoshka needs to be charged for 8 hours for the first charge and thereafter can only be charged for 24 hours maximum.  Be sure to remove it from the charging station once it is complete.

    Verdict

    I highly recommend the Matryoshka for all those looking for a luxury sex toy.  For flying solo or with a partner, the Matryoshka is specially to be used for clitoral and anal stimulation as well as massaging a man’s testicles while giving oral sex.  The price is towards the high end of the sex toy market but it is definitely money worth spending.

  • Cascade Flow Vibrator

    Cascade Flow Vibrator

    Cascade
    Only S$199.90 at SimplySxyLife

    Cascade has definitely outdone themselves this time with the worlds FIRST ever self-lubricating vibrator.

    I have to admit that i was skeptical of its promise when the guys gave me to do review.  Does it really live up to its name?  There have been previous instances where I had to lube up my vibrator only to end up with a mess of leaky lube all over my sheets.  Or wasting precious time searching for the lube in my toy drawer.  With the Cascade Flow Vibrator, kiss your lube nightmares goodbye.

    Each Cascade Flow set comes with one lube capsule, a USB charger and hub.

    Pros

    The self-lubing vibrator of course!

    With a touch of the button, lube flows out at the end and can be smoothed down its shaft immediately for solo or partner play time.  Enough lube flows through easily and the whole experience is fuss-free, leaving me to enjoy the Flow.

    The design is a sleek and beautiful smooth silicone body that comes in nine vibration settings (three different speeds and vibrations) controlled by the click-function handle.  Going through all the settings, I liked the most intense vibration which gave me full satisfaction.

    The quality of the lube is commendable, which serves its job and is non-irritable. to my skin.

    Instructions on how to load the lube and operate the Flow were easy to follow.

    Cons

    As the novelty of this toy is the self-lubing mechanism, taking it away makes it a very ordinary vibrator.

    The various speeds and vibrations seemed to be quite similar and I wasn’t sure which I was using at times.

    The lube capsule that comes with the Flow only lasts for 30 uses of the button.  Get a spare lube in case you run out.

    Verdict

    The Flow is definitely created by a touch of genius.  With its classy design and novel function, it is perfect for all those who use lube with their toys.

  • The Cone

    The Cone

    conearm_right

    “Something to add some extra variety. Plus, the orgasm mode hit the spot literally.”

    After using my trusty rabbit and magic wand for the last couple of years, I have been on the lookout for something new and unique.  The Cone is the new kid on the block which will never go out of fashion.  With its shade of pretty pink, it redefines pleasure and is pleasant on the eye.

    Pros:

    The simple design of the cone complements its user friendliness which is a joy to control.  There are 16 distinct in-built programs of vibration and 2 buttons to control its speed, power and pulsing.  To top it all off, there’s even an orgasm mode which lives up to it’s name.

    Trying it in The Clitmulator position (whereby I lie on my stomach while the tip of the cone is inside my vagina), the power and pulsing from the motor lives up to its hype.   Sitting upright with The Cone, I am able to get it in deeper and feel more intense vibrations as compared to when I lie down.

    A plus point is that it is also extremely quiet.  Something that every lady is looking for in her vibrator.

    Cons:

    It takes a little while to get used to and adjusting of The Cone up my vagina while I sit or lie down to get the ideal spot.  Users will need to find their favourite position to get the best out of The Cone.

    Bear in mind that The Cone is not waterproof and it should not never be submerged in water.

    Verdict:

    A definite game changer in the sex toy industry.  The instructions and different play positions for solo or partner use is a good guide for starters.

    Impressed with its excellent vibration modes, quietness and ease of use.  The Cone has already become a staple to my growing collection of toys.

    4.5/5 stars.
