Vibrator kit for couples

My Ugly Little Toy

This is a fun kit but it takes a bit of skill to pull off in a pleasing manner. It would be nice if there were more colors available or more silicone in each kit. All in all it's a cute idea that with a few tweaks could be a great idea. As it is it's great as a fun bachelorette activity or something similar.

Use

This vibrator appeals to my creative side. I got excited when I was offered the chance to review the My Toy Vibrator kit, because I am a very creative person, and I thought I could do some interesting things with this two-colored silicone toy. What happened was a hot mess, and I am not at all pleased with the results. Perhaps someone with more hand strength or something can make something really unique and pretty, but mine just looks....odd.

The vibrator works just like a typical AA battery plastic vibrator can be expected to work, and after the silicone dries it's usable, but I dunno - I am just disappointed that it turned out so badly. This might be perfect for someone who works with clay and has good hand strength. I thought I had good hand strength given that I perform massages on a regular basis but this defeated me and made my hands hurt.

It's a great idea and with a bit of tweaking it could work for the average user but as it is I was really not wanting to use the darn thing after making it. Maybe I am a prissy bitch but it's just ugly...my fault entirely, but still.

Material / Texture

This kit has a silicone and reactive agent mixture in two colors: for me it's pink and yellow. Not my most favorite colors but I thought I could do some interesting things. None of the products are vile smelling or taint the air of the room you are in but it did irritate my overly sensitive skin as I mixed the two colors. Even after I washed my hands with soap I could smell the chemicals on my skin and my skin was dry and rough. Moisturizing my hands was my only relief so if your skin is stupidly sensitive, like mine, use gloves when you knead the compounds together.

The vibrator, itself is hard plastic and pretty run of the mill. It's a turn dial based traditional vibrator. With the silicone covering it should be 100% non-porous but on my vibe there are thin spots and divots all over the silicone finish. The texture of the silicone shell is odd and it does provide some interesting sensations.

Design / Shape / Size

Well I totally admit the design didn't come out anything like I had planned, and maybe that is because I don't have the creative skill to pull it off...or in this case put it on. I would say that there should be three little pots of silicone or something similar because it's way difficult to fit even the small vibrator provided as the silicone begins to dry. I inadvertently made it a bit more realistic than I wanted by creating a meatus...this is where the seam went and try as I might I couldn't get it to change shape. I think I waited too long or something.

The vibrator is about 5 inches long and the girth is gonna vary with how much silicone you place around the vibrator. My sleeve is rather thin in places and thick in others. It looks rather cool from the backside though.

The vibrator is sized like a clitoral vibe or a very short insertable that isn't anal safe without an Enhancer. It's easy to slide into a sock drawer after it dries or a bedside table. My ugly little friend will get noticed if I leave it out...and I just might because it's so ugly it's almost cute!

My toy is nowhere near discreet, it's not even in the same zip code as discreet. It's pink and yellow, mottled, has handprints and thin spots- it is a discussion piece! There is a way to buy more silicone in different colors online and I might investigate this option and create a better sleeve for my little friend in the future.

I would suggest very quickly working the silicone and setting compound in both colors and then mildly kneading the two together then fitting the silicone around the toy. You have to be quick or the silicone becomes too stiff to work with and you need gorilla hand strength to even cover the darn vibrator. I tried to get all creative but ran out of time. The instructions say to draw up an idea before starting but it would seem my idea was too complicated. Still, it was fun...

Functions / Performance / Controls

The vibrator is a run of the mill traditional turn dial base vibrator that runs on 1 AA battery. It is a medium intensity even at full blast but you can dial it up or down as you need. Without the sleeve the vibrations are concentrated at the tip of the toy and radiate nicely down the shaft. With the sleeve the vibrations are just a touch muted but they radiate nicely. You could form a silicone "tongue" or other form to vibrate independently and the vibrations will carry nicely. I tried to do with with a little piece of silicone and it worked very well but I waited too long to stick it to the vibe and it fell off.

The toy takes one AA battery and is about as strong as you would expect one AA battery to put out. I like the fact that the dial base is tight and doesn't change during use easily. It is rather noticeable, noise-wise, but nothing outrageous.

Ok, so I tried the toy with the silicone sleeve and the thin spot on the top of the toy where the seam didn't close easily tore open. So I am going to order some more silicone for the toy and try again later. I'll post pics when I do because I expect the next toy to be MUCH better looking.

The toy isn't waterproof but it didn't leak when I washed it in the sink, so at the very least it is splashproof. I just wouldn't dunk it in the tub or pool.
    • Easy to use
    • Multiple settings
    • Not very discreet

Care and Maintenance

Wash the silicone sleeve in hot water and soap. You can slide the sleeve off the vibrator easily and then wash it thoroughly. The vibe is hard plastic so soap and water is still your best bet. At best the vibrator is splash proof so take care while washing it and don't use it in the shower or bath tub.

I store mine on my dresser because it is fascinatingly ugly and I'm weird like that. It can easily fit in a small toy bag or box but the packaging doesn't really double as a storage medium. I have spot tested the silicone for lube compatibility and it seems to work just fine with silicone lube. If you manage to create a masterpiece you might wanna use water based lube just to be safe and sure. At the very least a quick spot test will answer any questions you might have.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

Packaging

The kit comes packaged in a flat-ish plastic box with a paper insert. The tubs of silicone and reactor compounds are also in plastic and the vibrator is in a slot in the center of the paper insert. The tubs and vibrator move around freely in the box but it doesn't seem to injure any of the component pieces. The box is not suitable for storing the toy once it is decorated.
    • Minimal

    • Very informative

Personal comments

I am very disappointed that I couldn't create something pretty or even creative. It looks like something my three year old could do with play-doh. Still that isn't to say that everyone will experience the same problems, and I am going to track down the online source of more silicone pots and colors to try again. Perhaps, armed with the first run trial I can create something amazing the second time. It would be amazing if EdenFantasys would decide to carry the different colored silicone pots, jus' sayin'!

    Sorry this did not work for you. I am not fast when it comes to creating and I don't have gorilla hands so I will pass on this one.
