Vibrators

What is the difference between a bullet vibrator, a wand, and a G-spot vibrator?

Bullet vibrators are compact and precise, making them ideal for targeted external stimulation, particularly around the clitoris. Wand vibrators have a larger head that delivers broad, powerful vibrations across a wider surface area, which many people find deeply satisfying for external use and body massage. G-spot vibrators have a curved shaft designed to angle toward the front wall of the vagina, where concentrated internal stimulation can feel especially intense. Each style suits different preferences, and some people enjoy owning more than one for variety.

Are all vibrators made from body-safe materials?

Not automatically, which is why checking materials before you buy is important. Look for vibrators made from 100% body-safe silicone, ABS hard plastic, borosilicate glass, or stainless steel. These materials are non-porous, meaning they do not harbour bacteria and are straightforward to clean thoroughly. Avoid products made from jelly rubber, PVC, or anything labelled simply as rubber or latex, as these can be porous and may contain plasticisers that irritate sensitive tissue.

What lubricant should I use with a vibrator?

The right lubricant depends on the material of your vibrator. If your vibrator is made from silicone, use a water-based lubricant only. Silicone-based lubricants can break down silicone toy surfaces over time, affecting both texture and hygiene. For vibrators made from ABS plastic, glass, or stainless steel, both water-based and silicone-based lubricants are compatible. When in doubt, a quality water-based lubricant is the universally safe choice for any vibrator.

How do I clean and store my vibrator properly?

After each use, clean your vibrator with warm water and a dedicated toy cleaner or mild, fragrance-free soap. If your vibrator is fully waterproof, you can rinse it directly under running water. If it is only splash-proof, wipe it carefully with a damp cloth rather than submerging it. Pat it dry completely before storing it. Keep each vibrator in a separate pouch or storage bag to prevent materials from reacting with each other, and store away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Non-motorised toys made from borosilicate glass or stainless steel can also be sterilised by boiling briefly.
