Pixie curve - butt plug discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by MrAndMrsSmith

As with most plugs, the best use for this toy is to insert it and leave it alone - the natural movement of the toy with your body should provide ample stimulation. Use your imagination. I enjoyed rocking or humping during masturbation, squatting or sitting while playing in the shower, and even walking around while wearing it under my clothes. I didn't get around to it with this particular plug, but I think it would feel phenomenal to have it in place during intercourse.

This plug is made of PVC, giving it a very yielding, pliable feel with a slippery texture. This made it extremely comfortable for extended wear, as the thick parts of the toy have a lot of give. However, it was almost too flexible at the tip, making it difficult to insert and providing no noticeable prostate stimulation. The slipperiness of the material did not hold lube well - thinner lubes tended to bead up. On the other hand, not much lube was really needed. My primary complaint with this toy is that PVC is not very stable, and mine reacted badly with something else in my toy drawer and melted. I couldn't narrow down the culprit exactly, but I think it was either a skin-like masturbator or perhaps some traces of oil-based lube left on another toy.

The coloring is a gorgeous, bright, translucent pink. I'm not usually one to rave about the appearance of a toy, but this is a cute color.

There is some moderate odor with this toy, and it did not go away with washing or air drying.

The thing that immediately attracted me to this toy is the unique shape. It's very artistic looking and non-threatening. The angle of the body, the curve of the tip, the ball at the end, a low profile suction cup, and a great belly-to-neck diameter ratio give this toy that certain something that will pique your interest. Oh, and it's bright pink. The sexually insecure need not apply.

If only the performance could measure up to the expectation. This shape really doesn't work for such a flexible material.

I bought this toy for two main reasons: 1) I figured the suction cup base would make it ideal for hands-free insertion, and 2) I expected the curved tip would provide excellent prostate stimulation.

So much for my expectations.

The base is really too short for the suction cup to do much good. I tried it in the shower and couldn't quite get the toy in all the way in any of the positions I tried: squatting over it, hands and knees backing up to it, bending from the hips and leaning back against it. The best I could manage was sticking it to the wall or bottom of the tub after I had it in all the way. This did provide some unique sensations, but was really more trouble than it was worth. I've decided "suction cup" and "plug" aren't really two things that should go together.

The curve in the tip does nothing. Well, it exacerbates the difficulty of insertion. The material is just too flexible for such a thin tip. The ball at the tip provides visual appeal only, since it's not large enough to really be noticed.

The part of this toy that really shines is the belly. The large midsection of the toy is set at an angle that provides truly unique sensations. I actually tried it with the tip pointed both toward my back as well as pointed toward my navel, and the sensations were completely different but equally pleasurable. Combine that with the shape of the neck and base, and you have ecstatic comfort that isn't going to go anywhere any time soon.

Cleaning is easy if a little uncertain. Since it's PVC, you can't count on boiling it (which would be my preference in an anal toy). But a little soap and water with the smooth, even surface make cleanup pretty simple.

Storage was the real problem for me. I would recommend keeping any PVC toy separate from the rest of your collection. Mine reacted badly with something and melted.

PVC should work fine with a silicone lube (this might actually be ideal for play in the shower), though I only used it with water-based lubes, since that works with all of my toys.

I don't usually pay much attention to packaging, as I'm usually too eager to rip it open and get at what's inside. But in this case, I would recommend saving the plastic bubble for storage - it will keep it from contacting anything it shouldn't.

I wouldn't buy this toy again, though I would consider something in a similar shape in silicone. In fact, I don't expect to buy any more PVC toys.

My first foray with this toy was in the shower. After going round and round hoping for a hands-free insertion, I reluctantly admitted defeat and tried manually. Still not easy. The tip was so flexible, I couldn't get it to go in unless I put my finger directly on the tip. Once I had the tip inside, the rest was easy. It gave great sensations at the entrance as well as immediately inside. After some experiments trying to stick the suction cup to the wall, I gave up and sat down. Aha! This would work. The shape was perfect to get great stimulation from just rocking back and forth, and I finished with a wonderful orgasm not long after.

A few weeks later, I decided to try wearing it out of the house. So I applied a small amount of water-based lube, slipped it in, got dressed, and off I went for a few hours. The narrow base made it extremely comfortable to wear, even standing up, and the sensations from walking were quite nice. The real fireworks were from sitting down, though: more than once I had to consciously stop myself from rocking back and forth. After about two hours, I started to get so relaxed that I worried it would come out. As it turned out, there was never any real danger, and I probably wouldn't worry about wearing this all day, but the sensation was a little unnerving at the time.
