Vibrating leo - dildo discontinued by Vixen Creations, Inc - review by Waterfall

Vibrating Leo is a pretty silicone dildo by Vixen Creations that features a hole for a bullet that turns this toy into a vibrator. The fact that it has this bullet hole and the color are the main ways that it really differs from the regular Leo (although the regular Leo is slightly larger in diameter). The size and shape of this dildo make it great for both vaginal and anal play and also for wearing in a harness.

Leo comes in a plastic tube that has hard plastic caps on both ends. Just remove the cap off one of the ends and Leo is ready to come out and play! This tube works great for storage as Leo stands up perfectly inside and is safe from lint and other toy materials. My other Vixen Vixskin toys have balls so they come in a plastic box, therefore this plastic tube was new and exciting for me. On the back of the tube is some information about Vixen Creations and how to care for your toy. I know this isn't the most discreet packaging, but I like it a lot.

This is my first toy from Vixen Creations that is regular silicone, the others I own are Vixskin. Their regular silicone is also great. It has a nice amount of give to it, which I like in silicone (even though I also enjoy firm toys). There is even more flexibility around the base when the bullet is not inside. The Vibrating Leo is such a pretty pearl color that looks really nice in the light. The shaft is completely smooth, except for a vein or two running down the front and the realistic (ridged) head that can be felt during insertion and thrusting.

Leo is 8 inches long with 7 inches insertable. He is great for days when I want to feel a cock fill me up length wise. His diameter is 1 1/2 with a circumference of 4 1/2, so this is a fairly average sized cock. He has a gentle curve and a slightly ridged head that works very well for g-spot stimulation. Although this toy is flexible, I find that I get very nice g-spot stimulation especially when the ridge rubs back and forth on my g-spot.

The hole for the bullet is deep enough for me to fit most of my index finger in. This is a good thing because it allows the vibrations to travel further up the shaft and to the head. With other vibrating dildos that I own with a hole in the bottom, I find that it is usually more shallow than this one, so I was happy about the depth. The bullet vibe that comes with this one is similar to the ones that come with other dildos, except that it has a CORD! Even though I use lubricant when I insert the bullet, the cord really makes it easy to pull it out of the deep hole. The vibrations from the bullet are pretty strong, too strong for me to use by itself on my clit (unless I'm about to orgasm). The bullet takes 3 watch batteries that are included. You must put these in yourself, this is good because it keeps them from wearing out before it gets to you, but I seemed to have some trouble at first figuring out which way they went. As long as you don't have a moment like I did then you should be fine.

To clean Leo, you can use soap and water or toy cleaner. He can be sterilized for sharing between partners and orifices by boiling it (not with the bullet inside) or wiping it down with a 10% bleach solution. As with all silicone toys, water based lubes should be used because silicone based lubes can interact badly with the toy surface and ruin it.

For me, Leo is a vibrating dildo that can be used as an everyday toy because of the average size and ease of use. I like how the g-spot stimulation that I get from this feels similar to a real penis. It is not like having a glass, wood, or metal toy apply unrelenting firm pressure and sometimes I like lighter/more realistic g-spot play. I can also bend Leo in a way that allows for dual stimulation. I like that I can feel the vibrations really well and I orgasm fairly easily with this toy.

I also like Leo's size and shape for oral sex play and/or practicing my oral skills. It does not take up my entire mouth and the softness is comfortable as well.

One reason this dildo stands out for me is that it is one of my less intimidating toys that I felt comfortable bringing out with my fiance (who was a newer partner at the time) without him being intimidated (as I have reviewed some large and realistic toys). This is an easy toy to incorporate into our play for foreplay or to use for dual penetration with my fiance. It is a good toy for a beginner or for anyone looking for something on the simple side for their collection.
