A Guide To Using Your Vibe
Get The Most Out Of Your Favourite Sex Toy

Does every woman would know how to use her vibrator? It seems as if this would be an obvious yes, correct? Wrong! Many a gal would love to know more but finds it a tad awkward asking the girls over lunch what she is supposed to do with her battery-powered pal. So let us step in and chat here about how to get the most out of your new vibrator...

Making Quality Sexy-Time

With clean hands, unpack your vibrator from its packaging and look it over carefully. Insert the batteries (ensuring they are in the right way), or plug the vibrator in to charge. Once ready, apply some quality lube, and you're good to go. Perhaps you are in a rush to play, but please wait up:

Read all included instructions, e.g. - how to clean your toy, whether it is waterproof, how the setting buttons work, etc. Some vibes have fewer buttons, so you need to know whether to apply a "long press" or a "short press" depending on your desired results. 

Set the Mood

To do this, it is best to lay aside some quiet time for yourself. Get comfortable and ensure you won’t be interrupted. You might want to read a little erotica, look at pictures, or watch a movie to ignite that sexy mood.

Explore Your New Vibrator

Switch your vibrator on and gently run it along your arm, across your tummy, and up your leg - feel the vibrations. If it has different settings, test how each feels on your skin. Some parts of your body are more sensitive than others, so try it in different areas. Take your time. Get to know the different settings and speeds of your vibrator and how they feel.

It may have a ‘pointed’ area and a flatter one. Experiment with how the vibrations feel with the point or the flat on the different parts of your body.

Everyone is different. Some women choose strong, fast vibrations. Others only get to climax with a slow, gentle buildup. You’ll get to know your body more and more over time, but initially, merely try out the different options and note their effects.

When ready, direct the vibrator towards your genitals. You might want to start with your underwear on or even be fully clothed, to test the strength of the different vibrations. If the lowest setting still feels too strong, keeping your panties on or placing a towel between the vibrator and your clitoris can help hugely. Explore all your erogenous zones with your vibrator, and it could soon become your favourite sex toy.

Run it along the inside of your thighs and press it against your labia. Allow the different sensations to heat you up. Feel free to keep moving it around. If you have a G-Spot- or rabbit vibrator, it doesn’t mean you have to use it internally only...you can use it internally and externally, depending on your mood.

A lot of women find that some of the settings on their vibrators are great for external use but not so for internal, and vice-versa. Toy with the settings to discover which you prefer. Remember: you don’t have to have an orgasm the first time you use it. You’re still familiarising yourself with it. You may also find that you want the help of a lube, even if using the vibrator externally, but if using it internally, we strongly suggest you lube up to make things more comfortable.

Power Hour

Different vibrators have different strokes and strengths. Small bullet vibrators tend to work on button- or small batteries and thus do not always give powerful vibrations.

However, because they’re tapered and all the vibration is directed at one area – usually your clitoris – they can still have powerful effects. Try the different vibration settings to find the one(s) you prefer.

Remember, what feels like a light vibration in your hand may feel quite sensational when pressed against your bits. Many women like to start with a lighter setting and then notch it up as they get more turned on. Experimenting will help you find the perfect speed and timing.

Bring a Friend

If you have a partner, invite them to take charge of your vibrator and see what they can discover that you haven’t. Above all, have fun. Your vibrator is meant to please you, and it will do just that if you relax and let it.
