Sparkle vibes - traditional vibrator by Cal Exotics - review by Cinnamon Chambers

As the saying goes, you get what you pay for. That is really true with this product. This was my first ever sex toy of any kind. I got it as a gift from a friend as a gag gift but thought what the heck I would try it out. It was not a horrible experience, and it did lead me to experiment with new things.

Fist of all I learned that I do not like "hard" plastic toys. It was very uncomfortable and felt like what it was, a foreign piece of plastic inside my vagina. The ease of penetration from the slick plastic was a plus. Full penetration was possible but it yielded a "stabbing" sensation when fully inserted. The hardness of the plastic is the reason I suspect for the discomfort. I did not expect this feeling from a smaller toy at all.

The color purple is very nice and the sparkles make it appealing. I do like that the plastic is not porous and a safer material, but personally now after experiencing more varieties of toys I know I would rather use a condom on a jelly toy than be safe and condom free with a plastic toy.

The vibrations are VERY strong and did not provide a bit of pleasure to me even on the lowest setting. When on the highest setting and placed on the floor the toy will make its way across the room all by its lonesome. It was louder than a razor in my opinion and could be heard through a closed door.

I removed the batteries after the first use and did achieve orgasm with it by using it to lightly slip in and out of my vagina in unison with oral stimulation of my clit by my husband. Today I replaced the batteries out of curiosity and it will not come on.

Overall I can't say it was a bad gift, but it is not a favorite toy of mine at all. For $7.99 it is a decent value.
