Shiny, Pretty Thing

The Aluminum Mini is both a useful and decorative plug. It is easy to clean, and looks divine both before and during use. The narrow neck allows the plug to remain in place, and the tip allows for easy insertion. A fun and playful plug!

extremely useful review
I love jewelry. I have oodles of necklaces, rings, bracelets - you name it. I’m attracted to shiny, sparkly things like a raccoon. While browsing the site one night, I saw this plug and thought, “Wow! Jewelry for my butt…must have!” That’s how I ended up choosing the Aluminum Mini butt plug from Cal Exotics.

The plug comes in a small plastic box with a lift off lid. Inside, the silver-colored Mini rests on a satin liner. The box is ideal for storing the Mini when it’s not in use.

The Mini is made of aluminum, and polished to shine. There is no seam whatsoever, and it is so smooth it reflects light and shines in your hand. While the tip looks intimidating in the pictures, it is not as sharp or pointy as it seems. The tip is rounded, and aids in inserting the Mini with little effort.

Aluminum is a great material for a sex toy. It is non-porous and will never rust. It can be warmed under water, or cooled in the refrigerator or cold water if you want to do a bit of temperature play. It can be cleaned by washing it with anti-bacterial soap and water, or you can run it through the dishwasher to sanitize it. After hand-washing, the Mini should be dried with a soft cloth which will help polish its surface. Any and all types of lubricant can be used.

The Mini comes in both 3 1/2” and 4 1/2" lengths. The maximum diameter, which comes at the bulge before the neck, is 1 1/4" for both. I chose the shorter one for review.

The neck of the plug is a slim 3/8”, which allows your anus to retain the toy once it’s inserted past the bulge. It also doesn’t allow you to close up so much that it’s difficult to remove.

The base of this toy is its true attraction for me. A large blue faceted “jewel” is fitted on the bottom, and ringed with aluminum to hold it in place. It looks like a jewel from a crown or king’s treasure box, and the facets reflect light. It was pretty in my hand, but I wondered what it would look like in use.

Of course, it was tricky to see this in use myself, but it was quite a surprise for my husband. When I had it in and bent over to show him “a surprise”, his eyes definitely got big! The plug stayed in well during both foreplay and intercourse, and was not uncomfortable no matter how much I moved around. I found we had to pause frequently however, as he was fascinated by this little gem.

While this is a fun plug to wear during foreplay and sex, and even around the house, it is not a plug I’d wear out for shopping or work. The base can become uncomfortable after long term use due to its round shape.

And after all, a jewel is meant to be seen and admired, not hidden in your underwear!
Follow-up commentary
I really love the look of this plug, and it's the jeweled base that really makes this unique. There's something about the way it looks when I'm wearing it that drives my husband nuts.

This is a comfortable plug to wear for me, although I still don't wear it out much. The base doesn't nestle comfortably enough during extended periods of wear to make this a go-to when out of the house. It does stay in place well for me without popping out.

I haven't noticed any scratching of the surface (either of the gem or the actual plug), and the gem has remained firmly seated in the end.

I do wish there was a color choice for the gem so this plug could be color-coordinated with outfits, though!
