Sparkle vibes - traditional vibrator by Cal Exotics - review by Diem

The Sparkle Vibe is my go-to traditional vibrator. As a complete and total girly girl, I adore glitter, so this glittery little toy is perfect for me. It's basically a standard traditional vibe, except it has the added bonus of being shiny and see-through.

It's best used externally as a clit vibe or internally for vaginal stimulation. It could also be used pretty much all over the body as a massager, though it might not be as strong as some people would like for that purpose. It's a good standard vibrator for anyone, and is fun to use during foreplay.

The Sparkle vibe is made of plastic, so it's hard and smooth. It doesn't really smell or taste like anything. It's smooth, so there isn't really texture to add extra stimulation, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. This makes it suitable for anyone, beginner or advanced.

The design is pretty basic. The vibe is 5 1/2" long, and has a 1" diameter. In general, it works really well even though it's kinda on the small side, so people who have used toys for a while might not appreciate this vibe as much as newer users. Even though it's not that big, it's not too easy to hide either. You could fit it in any drawer, but you'd need to wrap it in something. I wouldn't call it discreet, but it could still be taken on vacation.

The vibe is controlled by a basic twist dial, which is very easy to use. It's pretty powerful considering it's only run on one AA battery. The control is both convenient and really easy to use. It has multiple settings, with the vibes getting stronger the higher you scroll up. It's a bit noisier than I would have liked it to be, but it's not terribly obnoxiously loud. The vibrations seem to be mostly in the tip. The vibe is not waterproof and shouldn't be used in the bathtub or shower.

The vibe is made of plastic, so to clean it just needs to be wiped off with warm water and antibacterial soap or toy cleaner. It can be stored in its original packaging, or it any bag or something to keep it clean. It is compatible with oil, silicone, and water based lube.
