My boyfriend got me the Li'l End after my woes with the Anal Finger. I was done with worrying about a little finger loop and having my hands cramps. I was also visualizing embarrassing trips to the emergency room. Anyways, he purchased the Li'l End and I was ecstatic to have a flared base! I only used it briefly before receiving the Tush Teaser, but I remembered this little guy and decided to give him another chance.

First: Silicone. Hygiene is easier with silicone toys because they are non-porous and won't harbor bacteria like jelly or plastics would. This makes maintenance a breeze. You can still use a condom with the toy but it's not really necessary since the Li'l End can be boiled or placed in a dishwasher for cleaning. Because it is silicone, be sure to use only water based lubes with this toy. With adequate lubrication, the plug is easy to insert and comfortable to receive. The only negative aspect with the silicone is that it's a lint magnet. Surprise! But you can wipe it down before use.

The plug may be too flexible for some. It can take a couple of tries to insert it because the tip can bend and slide away from the its target (especially with the generous amount of lube you're using for easy insertion). The texture of the Li'l End is pretty smooth and very beginner friendly. It tapers, allowing it to gradually slide in. Overall, the plug is beginner friendly in all dimensions: girth, length, etc.

I have the purple Li'l End and I wasn't a fan in the beginning. I tend to prefer more subdued colored toys for anal play for two reasons: it can make any potential mess less apparent and it doesn't look as out of place during sex as a bright pink plug would. The Li'l End changed my mind. I absolutely LOVE the color. I thought the shimmering was a trick of the light, but it does have a sparkle to it. The color was so pretty I was almost sad to place it where it belonged. Almost.

The plug is versatile. You can wear it during intercourse, but it has a small neck, so your partner will have to "adjust" it and make sure it's in place. This can be a pleasing practice. I have also worn it in public. It tends to slip when you stand to put on pants, but wearing a good pair of underwear and pants will keep the plug securely in place. It doesn't make a sound and no one know your naughty secret. Speaking of secret, the Li'l End is very discreet. You can wrap it in a tissue and put it in your bag with no problem.

I would recommend the Li'l end for beginners. It was my first "real" butt plug. More advanced anal players may want to look the Li'l End's sister, The Big End. Either way, if you use this plug as part of double penetration, the feeling is quite intense. Your partner will feel it as well.

To date, the Li'l End is my favorite butt plug. If only it came with a bullet inside it!

The li'l end is a great butt plug for beginners: it's small, tapered, and best of all it is silicone. For those who are satisfied with easy and smaller plugs, this may be your go-to plug, but if you are more than a beginner, you will look for an upgrade.

The good news is there is the Big End and the Super Big End to fulfil your advancing anal needs. This entire line of plugs is made of silicone, which will give you a cleaner, longer lasting toy.

This toy has earned a place in my box, but was a beginner's stepping stone.
