Sensua suede whip - sex toy by LELO - review by 00

For those that know Lelo products, just the name Lelo can evoke warm, wet, wonderful feelings. To those that do not know of Lelo products, do yourself a favor and check them out.

I am a major proponent of having varied experiences in the bedroom, or wherever I engage in sexual activity. As the saying goes, "Variety Is The Spice Of Life" and is even more important in a monogamous, long-term relationships,(several decades together now for me and my husband). For many women, especially women over a certain age, the idea of any sex toy is scary and the idea of a sexually related toy that is within the realms of BDSM or sensation play is almost radical. With this being said, I say "Get Radical!"

Although my husband and I usually play with custom ordered/made heavy duty floggers, we have found that this little Lelo mini flogger will remain in our home as a very welcome companion to our many other sensation/impact toys.

This absolutely beautiful, well made and perfectly weighted small sheepskin suede flogger is the most perfect beginners item for sensation play with your partner. It is called a whip, but is indeed a mini flogger. Just don't let the word "mini" throw you off. The thin tails can caress the most tender skin with the softness of a kiss or bring mild stingy tingles to that same skin.

This is not for those into hardcore or intense BDSM play. This is perfect for those less kinky who are looking to get started in sensation or impact play.

The 5.5 inch long handle is sleek acrylic with the Lelo name imprinted on it and has a slightly weighted silver metal ball end which makes it a pleasure to use for extended lengths of time. Overall the Lelo Sensua Suede Whip is only 14 inches long and about 7.5 ounces, making it perfect for travel or in any of the many small bedside toy storage containers. Our Lelo has 37 tails/falls. I have read others Sensuas had less, some 30 and some 36.

Of course, Lelo is a maker of high quality and luxury items so it was no surprise to see the flogger in the expected Lelo box wrapped in the distinctive fiber paper. Since the flogger does not have any way to hang it to prevent the tails from getting tangled, I advise to keep it in the box it comes in when not in use.

Being suede, it is porous and cleaning could become a problem. Suede will pick up body fluids easily and although it can be cleaned with a good quality suede cleaner, a damp cloth or even a good spray type toy cleaner, do not expect the suede to last forever. Also because of it being porous, it is best not to share with others to avoid any cross contamination.

I also suggest shaking it vigorously or flicking it lightly against something before the first use as the cut suede will have a tendency to shed off a little bit of fibers in the beginning. Also after extended use, be prepared to see that not all of the tails are the same length as suede does stretch.

Because of its size, it is best for use on smaller areas of the body such as inside of thighs, breasts, bottoms or genital areas. Personally I found it very thuddy and arousing. It took quite a bit of effort to make the ends of the tails become stingy upon my skin. For stingy sensations, it would be better to use something else. Don't fear that you will be left with marks and bruises by this as it just cannot get that intense. The warming sensations delivered by this Lelo flogger would and could easily be enjoyed by just about anyone.

We have used this regularly and continue to enjoy it. The only drawback is that after time, the length of each tail is different, as they tend to stretch out some. Overall, still great though.
