Use

Twisted Gem by Eden Toys is an anal plug designed for men or women to wear or use anally during playtime. It features a rhinestone for added visual stimulation and is textured for a little added stimulation upon insertion. This plug can be worn throughout the day, or it can be worn during playtime only. Due to the fact there aren't any moving parts or mechanics involved, this plug can be worn in the bedroom, shower, tub, pool, or anywhere else you desire. This plug is great for all occasions as well, whether you're simply wearing it around the house or out on the go, this plug is a great accessory.

The plug can be used for temperature play as well, is compact and travel friendly. Users can easily slip this plug into their purse or luggage as it is neatly tucked inside of the pouch it came with. This plug can be easily hidden from prying eyes if you wish, as it is small enough to tuck away in a drawer or another inconspicuous place in its pouch. When using this plug, do not use impact play tools near or around the buttocks as this plug has the potential to internally bruise the user. Err on the side of caution when engaging in rough activities such as bondage and rough intercourse, as this toy can also cause tissue damage if bumping too harshly into sensitive tissues.

Material / Texture

The Twisted Gem plug by Eden Toys is made from aluminum alloy. It is non-porous, hypo-allergenic, latex and phthalate-free, as well as nickel-free. Users shouldn't have to worry about any adverse effects from this plug, even after prolonged use. There isn't any kind of scent or taste to the material, so users with such sensitivities won't have to worry. The metal is smooth and cold to the touch at first, but will quickly warm to your body heat.

The texture of the toy makes it look like a tiny little Christmas tree with the way it is shaped. It has a very bee-hive shape, and has four ring-like shapes encircling the entire bulb-like shape. This can also be described as a drill-head like shape. Because the toy is made from metal, it doesn't have any give, and is completely rigid. Beginners who are new to texture may either enjoy or hate the sensation this one causes, but compared to some other textured toys, this one has a very light texture and makes it a pretty good introductory item without being over the top. This plug is not meant to feel nor look realistic and doesn't upon insertion.
    • No odor
    • Not porous at all

Design / Shape / Size

Overall this is a very whimsical, yet beautiful plug. It is designed with a twisted-like bulb, a narrow neck, and a flared base. The base has an eye-catching purple gemstone set into it, which glistens and shines in the right lighting. This base makes it great for men or women, as it's not a color that is associated to one specific gender like some other colors. The gemstone is made from a high-quality plastic and does not feel cheap or as though it will fall out of the setting anytime soon.

The plug itself shines in its metallic state, and is very lightweight in the hand. Compared to the Precious Heart by Eden Toys, this aluminum alloy is much more feather-weight than its counter-part. This may be a pro or con to some, depending if the user likes weighted toys. This plug can also be traveled with if you feel so inclined. It is small enough to fit into a small carry-on or handbag, and can be safely tucked away without fear of anyone seeing it unless your bags are searched by TSA.

The plug measures in at 2-3/4 inches in total length with an insertable length of 2-1/2 inches. The circumference of the toy at its widest point is 3-1/2 inches. The base is 1-1/8 inches in diameter while the neck has a length of 1/2 of an inch. The size is perfect for beginners, but in some cases may be too small for them as well. It all depends on a person's anatomy.

Performance

The texture of this toy is amazing. The ridges feel wonderful when you're initially inserting this toy and continue to add a degree of stimulation as it sits inside of you and you're moving around. The ridges also add some stimulation when a female uses this toy anally and is penetrated vaginally. The swirly, twisted texture feels nice when it's rubbing against your insides as you walk or move. Due to the rigidity of the metal, this textured surface seems more prominent, and can pinpoint whatever area it rubs against while inserted.

The gemstone of this plug is beautiful. It doesn't look cheap in any sort of way, and it is secured in place on the base of the plug. The gemstone in no way prevents the plug from standing upright if you choose to sit this plug on your nightstand or dresser, so your plug won't be rolling away when you set it down. The gemstone reflects well in certain lighting, but is still beautiful under any form of light setting (candle, incandescent, etc.). Your partner will love undressing you and finding this elegant surprise awaiting them.



The size can be good or bad depending on how you look at it. If you feel as though the plug is too small for you (and you're a beginner), then perhaps choose a different plug to start off with. This plug is pretty small, which makes it great for people who are intimidated by bigger style beginner plugs, and who's eyes aren't bigger than their orifice. It will be good or bad depending on your anatomy and what you feel comfortable with. Always check the size measurements of a toy before purchasing.

The neck of the toy is a small one, so if you feel yourself becoming worried that this plug will slip in too far, perhaps save yourself the ER visit and remove it before it becomes a problem. This plug is lightweight compared to other metal plugs, and if your sphincter muscles are tight, they could possibly hold the plug inside of you should you lose it. I would not recommend sitting down with this plug in, but walking about the house or out and about should be okay. Again, remove the toy if you begin to worry it's slipping in too far.

This plug can also be used for temperature play if you'd like. Simply soak the toy in a warm bath or an ice bath for different sensations upon insertion. Do not microwave or freeze your toy for obvious reasons. You do not want a trip to the ER to treat a burn.

    • Easy to use

Care and Maintenance

Cleaning your toy is always critical when it comes to anal toys, so you'll need to be thorough. In the case of this plug you can wash it with hot, soapy water, a toy cleaner, or even toy wipes. Though the toy may be dishwasher safe, it's best not to risk losing the gemstone that is in the base of the toy. After cleaning the toy with mild anti-bacterial soap and water, you can always dip the toy into some boiling water for a few moments before drying it, or even wipe it down with a watered-down bleach solution. Bleach solutions should consist of 90% water and 10% bleach, and you should always thoroughly rinse the toy afterward.

Due to the ridges on this toy, it's best to keep an old toothbrush or other soft-bristled brush aside in order to clean them and any other textured toys. This ensures that you're getting into all of the creases and crevices of the toy and cleaning them to the best degree. Fecal matter can and will get trapped within these ridges along with excess lubricant so you'll want something to get all of that off after using the plug. It also helps you clean around the jewel as well without worrying about displacing it. Should your jewel come off of the plug you can either toss it entirely, or glue the jewel back into place, but remember to let the glue have a full 48 hours untouched before using the toy again.

After cleaning, you can keep the toy inside of the pouch it came with, along with the foam bag and tissue paper, or you can simply leave the foam and tissue off if you're sure the toy will be safe in the velveteen pouch provided. You can also store it in other ways such as a drawer or other area where the toy won't get bumped around. Always check your toys before and after use and cleaning. If you see any deep scratches, rough marks or indents in the material, toss it immediately. Do not risk being cut internally by these materials; no one wants to visit the ER.

When using this toy with lubricant, it's your choice what you feel most comfortable with. The plug is compatible with all lubricants, (water, silicone, oil) and can be used without worry of degrading the material.
    • Easy to clean
    • Easy to store

Packaging

The plug came shipped discreetly in a plain, cardboard box. There weren't any details aside from the place the toy was shipped from, and is discreetly named so no one can tell what is inside or that it came from an adult online store. The toy came nestled between air pillows so that it doesn't get bumped around during transit, and the receipt was in the bottom of the cardboard box packed with it neatly. The toy itself comes packaged inside of Ziploc bag, inside of a velveteen black pouch and wrapped in tissue paper and a foam bag. This packaging was to insure your new toy doesn't get scratched or worse when it's being shipped to you, and provides a nice velveteen pouch to store your new plug inside of, if you choose.



All packaging can be recycled if you'd like, and is very minimal. There weren't any instructions with the plug on neither care nor use, but in this circumstance, no instructions are really required. If gifting this toy to someone, you can place it in a gift bag or box along with the packaging, but remember to remind whoever you're gifting it to that you've gotten them an adult item unless it is already known or obvious.
    • Good for storage
    • Minimal
    • Recyclable

Experience

This is another winner for my girlfriend and myself. As mentioned before on my Precious Heart review, I found that this plug is a beautiful and a fun surprise when she undresses and has it inside of her. She loved the way the ridges felt, but said that the plug was a little too short for her liking (she meant the neck). She said that the base rested against her, but felt as though the gem was rubbing her buttocks in a slightly uncomfortable way when she walked. She said that the tip is a little more pointy than she would like, but it's still a great plug either way.

For her anatomy, the plug stayed in, and we didn't have to worry about too much slippage, even when using a silicone lubricant, and I was using a strap-on doggy-style. Reverse cowgirl did see a little bit of slippage, but otherwise on that front all was fine. However, in that position she noted that she felt the pointy tip a bit more than she liked, but that she really enjoyed the ridges that the toy offered in both positions.

From the visual aspect it was a complete turn-on to see her bejeweled behind.
Follow-up commentary
While this plug is relatively small for us, it's a nice teaser when my partner inserts this and shows it off. It's a very sexy addition to the bedroom, and we really enjoy the gemstone plugs that we own. This one is a beautiful shade of purple and really shines in our toy box. It hasn't shown any signs of wear and tear and has held up with proper cleaning and storage.
