My interest is totally peaked by the Joya Sphere.  Perhaps it’s that Yin Yang symbol pulls on my 60′s/90′s lovin’ heart strings, but either way it looks like a pretty neat vibrator.  The Sphere actually includes 2 vibrators, so you can share with your partner keep them both to your self.  Joya creates awesome body friendly products and I’d love to give this one a whirl.

“The new Sphere Intimate massager features two totally separate yin-yang shaped massagers presented in one sleek, acrylic storage case.

Each massager offers 5 surprisingly strong, discreetly quiet modes. The white half offers 5 graduating speeds, while the black half offers 5 unique pulsation modes.

The tear-drop shape of each massager can easily reach around the body`s curves.

Made from premium-grade, non-porous, non-toxic and hypoallergenic ABS plastic.

Sphere`s shell is waterproof and easy to clean, and boasts a silky PU coating which gives their surface a sensual feel that`s easy to hang on to.

Each massager measures 4.85 inches height x 2.5 inches width x 1.4 inches circumference

Each massager requires 2 AAA (total of 4) batteries (not included)“

Fun Factory, thank you for creating Chester Cheeky.

It was love at first sight with this little ghost.  He has a sweet devilish grin, squinty eyes and appears to be hovering with his arms hiding behind his back.  This vibrating silicone cartoon character is full of personality and charm.  If Alan Cumming was a vibrator, Chester Cheeky would be his name.  I mean that with all of the respect in the world; I LOVE Alan Cumming.

So Mr. Cheeky’s appearance makes him a loveable vibe, but what about function?

He most certainly follows through with top notch performance.  He features a variety of speeds from slow and mellow to high, and I mean HIGH speed zoom.  There are also 3 additional vibration modes for those who are into pulsation.  I heard but a purr from the quiet motor. 

External Stimulation: While the slight curve and shape make Chester Cheeky ideal for internal G Spot stimulation, he also works wonders for external play.  The contours and overall shape of his body allow the vibe to hug your lady bits.  His slightly defined arms rest just above your clitoris as he leans back and embraces the curve of your nether region.  Vibration is felt and felt and felt and felt again.  If you enjoy stimulation of the entire vulva, you will enjoy this vibrator as much as I did – which was well, a lot.

Internal Stimulation:  With an insertable length of 5.5 inches and a diameter of 1.5 inches, Chester Cheeky gives you a nice filled sensation without being overwhelming or requiring a 3 hour warm up before he can actually be enjoyed.  I realize everyone’s body is different, but this was after all MY experience.  While this vibrator doesn’t have an extreme g spot curve, it is shaped in such a way that your g spot is easily stimulated.  It isn’t so much about an over the top intense g spot stimulation that suddenly makes your back bend in ways you never imagined.  It is more about overall internal satisfaction with your g spot included in the fun.  Don’t get me wrong, this toy is not weak by any means!  It just doesn’t target the g spot alone.

Orgasm Rating: Off the charts!  I have used Chester quite a few times already and regardless of internal or external use the end result was always the same: me in a euphoric state without much control over my muscles.  I can’t imagine anyone playing with this little guy and not achieving one mountain sized, rich and sole consuming orgasm.

Other Fabulous Features:  Chester Cheeky is from Fun Factory’s Sinflut line of rechargeable vibrators.  No batteries required!  The charging station is pretty small so it doesn’t take up much room.  He is controlled by an on-off button and a mini-joystick that controls the speed and pulsation functions.  The joystick was a little on the stiff side (pun amusing but not intended), but not discouraging in any way.  This vibrator is made from 100% medical grade silicone so he is phthalates free, nonporous and hypoallergenic.  This means water based lube only!  He is 100% waterproof for fun anywhere.         

Chester Cheeky is in fact adorably whimsical and a giver of orgasms, but I must comment on the quality of this product.  I could tell just from holding him in my hand that he was crafted with care and from the best materials.  This vibrator is solid and without any imperfections.  I always expect this from Fun Factory, but I was still impressed.  Even if it wasn’t my job to review sex toys, I would recommend Chester Cheeky to everyone who enjoys the glorious gift of vibration.

So a couple of weeks ago I talked a little about why I think ladies everywhere should masturbate.  I was inspired by few friends who let me in on the fact that they had never done the deed.  Now they know why they should masturbate and so do you.  Here a few tips on how to get started.

Nervous?  Feeling Awkward? 

Understandable, but totally unnecessary.  Remind yourself that you are performing for no one.  You get to play in your very own playground with no one waiting for their turn on the spiral slide.  Relax a bit.  Romance yourself.  As I have said before: do what turns YOU on, not just what you read about in a magazine while standing in line at a grocery store.  Whether it is candles and wine or punk rock and porn, make it happen.  One thing that is more important than you probably realize, make sure your house or apartment is at the perfect temperature for you. 

For any sexual endeavor, solo or shared, it is always a good idea to have plenty of lube on hand.  This isn’t the time for a lube lecture, but here are the basics:

Water Based – Safe to use with any toys.  It does need to be reapplied more frequently than silicone based. 

Silicone Based – Not safe to use with silicone toys.  Best to use during toy free play.  Great for use in the water.

For both lube types ALWAYS choose lubricants that are free of glycerin, parabens and sugar.  These ingredients may cause infections.

Where do you start?  Here are a few ideas:

Fantasize: Once your physical surroundings are to your liking, use your solo time to explore your fantasies.  You can draw on past experience or allow your mind to go where it has never gone before.  Nothing is there to hold you back from enjoying a romantic romp on a bed of rose petals or from becoming the dominatrix you always wanted to be.  Fantasy encourages sexual growth.  Stimulate your mind, not just your naughty bits.  The two are related.

Porn: If you prefer visual stimulation, there is nothing wrong with watching some adult entertainment.    Make yourself nice and comfy on the couch or in your bed.  Keep the lube and the remote close at hand.  If you find it isn’t really what gets you all hot and bothered you can always turn it off, although you’ll probably put your favorite scene on repeat.

Manual stimulation.  Get to know your clitoris, but don’t suffocate your clitoris.  Start with your inner thighs and move on to your labia majora and labia minora.  While you should have already applied a bit of lube, stimulating these areas will encourage your body to produce natural lubrication.  This will make direct stimulation of your clitoris far more enjoyable than without.  Direct stimulation of the clitoris before lubrication is present will most likely be annoying and for some even painful.  Eventually make your way to the little love button and enjoy the ride.  Experiment with different levels of pressure, movement and directions.  Don’t feel the need to simulate intercourse and don’t forget to include your nipples in on the fun!

Vibrator: While it is a good idea to get to know yourself with your hands, many women find they enjoy vibrator use in addition to or more so than manual stimulation.  Eggs and bullets are a great way to dip your toes into the Olympic pool sized world of solo play and toys!  There are no chickens or guns involved so don’t worry.  Egg and bullet vibrators are easy to operate, satisfying, affordable and nonthreatening.  The award winning RO-80MM Bullet by Rocks Off is a quality product that is perfect for beginners, but loved by veteran mistresses of masturbatory acts.  Also, Toygasms is a great guide for sex toy newbies!

Bathtub: This is a fabulous place for girlies to masturbate whether it’s their very first time or they have been doing it for years.  The warm bath is relaxing and you have built in sex toys at your disposal.  Now of course I am an advocate of using a wide array of products that can be purchased through my place of employment.  However, flowing streams of water have been known to get the job done. 

Faucet:  The steady flow of rushing water can be incredibly stimulating.  This mini waterfall may send you plunging into an orgasmic river, but there are a couple of downsides.  You may end up in an uncomfortable position and the water level may end up too low (if you allow the water to drain) or too high (if you don’t allow the water to drain) which may lead to either freezing temperatures or drowning.  Don’t be discouraged; you should still give this a whirl.  You just might find the perfect balance!

Detachable Shower Head: Sure these things make getting clean a little easier, but we all know what they are really for.  Yep.  Even the low end types offer a variety of shower pressure and pulsation patterns so you can use as much or as little pressure as your heart desires.  Plus, no one has to know what’s really going on; just sneak away and take a long hot shower to ease your sore muscles.  A little hint: purchase one with a long hose so you can use it while soaking in the bath, and not just standing up. 

Also, bring a waterproof vibe with you!  The RO-80MM is waterproof, but there are tons other vibes that are fun for self lovin’ in the water.  Make sure the vibe is 100% waterproof before you submerge it in the water.  *Splashproof works in the shower, but not under water!* 

Ladies, these are but a few suggestions on how to get started when getting off on your own.  Use these ideas as a home base and find your own methods and means of masturbation.  Don’t pressure yourself to reach orgasm the way someone else told you to.  Find your rhythm and simply enjoy.

Every now and then I am lucky enough to have a guest stop by and share a little of their point of view on various sex toy related topics.  This week, a special guest tested out the Gigolo II by Fun Factory.  Check out her product review and find out why she she loved it so much!

Gigolo II by Fun Factory

The Fun Factory Gigolo II Smartvibe vibrator has a texture to die for! It’s soft and very real feeling, has no scent, and has the right amount of firmness for a vibrator.  This is great for clitoral and vaginal play.  The vibe has multiple levels of intensity for great clitty buzz and is capable of g spot stimulation.  The boost button rocks!

It has an element of femininity and makes for a great gift.  It is the perfect blend of toy and realism.  It’s aesthetically appealing and the right size for solo play and partner play.  The only con is that inserting the batteries can be hard to figure out.  This is a great toy, has amazing texture, excellent durability and is perfect for all occasions.  This is a toy that you won’t mind anyone seeing because it’s so freaking cool!

- She got right to the point on this one.  Sounds like a fabulous toy and it will definitely get added to my ever growing Wish List!

We have made some fabulous additions to our Sex Toys for Women category.  Our aim was to, and to continue to, hand select products that are made with women’s bodies, safety and pleasure in mind.  In our Vibrators for Women section you will find top quality vibes at a variety of price points to fit your needs.  Sure, we would all love to toss $100 at the hottest vibe on the market, but many of us just can’t do that.  That doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice your preferences when it comes to getting off with some buzz!  You will find plenty of awesome affordable vibrators.  Who knows, point your honey in the right direction and they just might splurge on that expensive sex toy for you.

The Meany Mini by Fun Factory

Our featured Vibrator for Women is Fun Factory’s Meany Mini.  It is from their line of miniVibes that are basically the shrunken versions of some of their best vibes.  They are perfect for travel and easy to store.  I am a girly girl and I do love all things mini.

“Meany is anything but, this little vibe is a giver in so many ways with 3 vibration modes. Meany will give you big smiles with his ability to stimulate your C-spot and if inserted can offer a little G-spot action.

The candy violet silicone body is silky smooth, phthalates free, non-porous and easy to clean.  Meany is splashproof, making shower time all the more.  This is a great vibe for starters or as an addition to your toy box.”

I love my Laya Spot and my Smart Balls.  I can wait to find out what this little guys has in store!
