This is the Life

Life is a magnificent clitoral vibrator made by Leaf. She features strong steady vibrations that can be felt both in pinpoint and more broad diffuse vibrations depending on how you hold it.

She can be used for solo sessions. She can be used with a partner during foreplay, oral sex, or intercourse. She's completely waterproof and makes a great companion for a luxurious bubble bath or a nice hot shower.

Life is easy to use and can be used by novice and experienced toy users. It is not meant to be used vaginally or anally. But for external use, she's a winner.

Life is made from silicone. I love silicone sex toys. Silicone is body-safe because it is nonporous, hypoallergenic, and phthalate free. It can be completely sterilized so there are no worries about hidden bacteria taking up residence. The only drawback to silicone is that it attracts lint like her life depended on it. It's best to rinse off before each use to get rid of all the fuzz.

Life is completely smooth. She is soft and feels velvety. She has a bit of drag. If you want her to glide easily across skin, use some water based lube. Silicone lubes could damage the silicone on the toy. Always be sure to use water based lube with Life. I didn't find lube necessary.

There is no extra texture her. She is smooth all over. The instructions claims that she has no seam. However there is a vertical seam running straight down the middle on both sides. It doesn't affect use in any way.

Life is shaped like a narrow leaf. She actually contours very nicely to the female body. She is very narrow at the tip and gradually widens out. She is also thinner at the tip. She slowly bulges out on top and bottom and then thins back down at the end. The end result is a nice curvy shape that is easy to hold and easy to use. I love how it fits against my body.

Life isn't very big. She fits easily in the palm of my hand. She is 4 inches long and 1.5 inches wide at her widest part. She is a lovely light green color. I love the green. It's a nice change from the standard pink or purple of most toys.

The tip offers pinpoint stimulation while the top offers broad, diffuse stimulation. She is easy to hold to get either type of stimulation. The design is nice for many women as they can pick whatever they like.

Life offers very strong steady vibrations. She does not have any pulsating settings, so if you need that type of stimulation look elsewhere. I would rate the vibrations at their high intensity a 4/5. She is also quiet. She has a low hum that cannot be heard outside a closed door. The steady vibrations can be either pinpoint or broad. Because the tip is narrow and thin, the vibration concentration is very high. Women who like pinpoint stimulation on their clit will enjoy the tip of Life. Farther up on Life's body, the vibrations are broader and more diffuse. Women who enjoy this type of stimulation can use this part. Of course it is possible to change the position frequently to get both types of stimulation.


Life is very easy to use. She has one control button. It is located on the top and really is just a small raised bump rising from the body. Pushing it will turn her on. Many vibrators require you to push the button repeatedly to change the settings or increase the intensity. This is different in that you just hold down the button to increase the intensity. Taking your finger off and pushing quickly will turn it off. It took me a minute to get used to that.

She is a rechargeable toy. There is no messing with batteries with Life. Her charging port is on the back. The charger snaps in place. A solid red light shines when she is charging. Once completely charged the light turns off.

Waterproof toys are always very easy to clean. You can run her under the faucet with some antibacterial soap without any worries. You can use a toy cleaner. You don't want to ruin the motor by boiling or placing in a dishwasher, but using one of the other methods will clean and sterilize her.

Since she is so fond of lint, it's a good idea to rinse her off before any use if needed. She should already be clean because you have washed after every use, but it's nice to get off the fuzzies. If you have stored her in a lint free environment this might not be necessary.

Life can be stored in her packaging. She comes in a very nice heavy duty box. The box lid folds down over the top and side. The side has a couple of magnets that hold it in place. It's actually a very nice storage case. Inside the box is a drawstring canvas pouch for Life. It's the perfect place for her. There is also room in the box for the instructions and charger.

A month or so ago I was in a local adult toy shop. I was browsing taking my time to look at everything. The manager told me the Leaf line was one of the current hottest toys on the market. I thought he was just trying to make a sale, but I tucked that information away. A few weeks later I decided to see for myself and placed my order.

I really really like Life. My favorite clitoral vibe is Mimi, but Life comes in a very close second. Actually I think the only reason Mimi is still first is she was my first love. It's hard to replace that first true love, you know. Life is vying for that spot and she has a good chance. Here is a comparison pic of the two.


I have used Life every which way possible always with satisfying results. My favorite way to use Life is during intercourse. She is easy to wedge in between us. I don't usually like pinpoint stimulation, but I love being able to get just a second or two of that before going back to broader vibrations. She's a great toy, and I guess the store manager was telling the truth.
