Ballsy Crystal

There's nothing horribly wrong with the Crystal; it simply comes down to preference. If you like borad stimulation, average strength, and small toys then give it a try. If neither of those qualities sound good, then pass.

Use

The Enchanted Crystal is a mini vibrator by Evolved Novelties. This small toy can be used for external stimulation of the clitoris, nipples, and any erogenous zone. It can also be inserted for shallow penetration. It is not designed for anal use; there are better and safer toys for that.

This vibrator is very beginner friendly. It is not intimidating, a decent price, and offers average vibrations. The design of the toy offers much broader stimulation though. If you desire pinpoint stimulation than this toy would only frustrate you (you could use it to tease or warm up though). It's not loud, so it is an option for those who live with others or have thin walls. Even if you have a roommate, you can whisk the Crystal into the shower since it is waterproof.

This could make a great gift for a friend who is exploring sex toys. Even if they don't like it, they learn from the toy and can get a better view of what they do like.

Material / Texture

The Crystal is made from plastic. Plastic is non porous and quite hygienic. It is a good option for users who are more sensitive and it's a good alternative to jelly and rubber toys. The crystal end is a clear plastic of a different color than the rest of the toy. The rest of the plastic feels like it might have a coating of polyurethane or something similar. The toy is solid and will not bend or flex.



Both ends (balls) feel smooth, with the crystal ball being much smoother. The center of the toy is segmented. If inserting, you will feel them. The texture in the center should not dissuade users (especially since it has external applications). Lubricant can also help for a more effortless insertion. While insertion is limited, the shape of the toy can stimulate the entrance of the vagina (which is more nerve endings than the deeper parts of the vagina). There is no overt smell or taste to the Crystal.
    • No odor
    • Not porous at all

Design / Shape / Size

This is called a mini vibrator for a reason. The Crystal is a little toy. However, it manages to be ergonomic with it's bow-like shape so the toy can be gripped and help comfortably. It is 4.5 inches long with an insertable length of an advertised 3.25 inches. However, to make the toy easy to use (and not cramp your hand), it's more sensible to say that about 2 to 2.5 inches are insertable for comfortable play.

It is also not intimidating in terms of width. The balls on either end don't exactly aid in insertion like more phallic toys, but the Crystal has a max circumference of 4.5 inches (which is about average for a female-oriented toy). Remember, though, that insertion doesn't matter as much if you're looking for a clitoral toy. Advanced users may simply want more than the toy has to offer, but this does not mean the Crystal is a bad toy. It is well made and has decent qualities.

At first glance, the Crystal looks like a color mini baton, but any adult could figure out this is a vibrator. It's best to store away from easy view. For travel, this vibrator will fit about anywhere from your purse to luggage to even a decent pocket.

Functions / Performance / Controls

The controls on the Crystal are very easy to use. The colorful Crystal ball acts as your turn dial. Turn the dial clockwise to power the toy on. The more you turn the dial, the stronger the vibrations get. If turned up all the way, the Crystal puts out a solid 3 Vrooms; this is enough to usually satisfy the average user. If you need more power than that, than consider this a potential teaser toy or one to pass on. Turn the ball all the way counter-clockwise to turn it off.

At full power the Crystal is only 2 Bees. If you have a blanket thrown over, you won't be heard beyond your closed door. If you need more discretion, take it into the shower with you. When twisted on tightly, the toy can withstand submersion and showers easily.

The Crystal takes one AAA battery. This is nice since many toys of a similar size take more uncommon batteries (which can be a pain). The battery life solid.
    • Discreet sound
    • Easy to use

Care and Maintenance

Care for the Crystal ranges from easy to a bit annoying depending on how you use it. If you use it strictly as a clitoral/external toy, then it is easy. You can wipe down the ball end or use soap and water with ease. If you use the toy internally, then cleaning becomes more dedicated. Debris can and will collect in the crevices of each little segment. This can make it a pain to clean if the debris has dried. Soaking it should help though.

Being plastic, it doesn't collect lint. Silicone and water based lubricants can be used. Once dry, it can be tossed in to any general storage since plastic is a more inert material. It's still best to keep it from porous toys since they can cause cross contamination.
    • Easy to store

Packaging

The packaging is minimal and cute.



If you wanted, you could tie a bow at the top when giving it as a gift for some extra flare. It is not discreet since it is see-through. The plastic packaging could be used as storage if desired. There are nor paper instructions that come with the toy but the packaging advertises its qualities.
    • Minimal
    • Not discreet
    • Recyclable

Experience

I got the Crystal as a free gift with my order. Even though it was advertised as a mini vibe, I didn't think it would be as small as it actually was. This was not a problem though. Upon looking at it, I realized this is probably a toy people will either love or hate. It's absolute in terms that it offer borad stimulation and is average strength. This sets the bar for those debating the purchase.

One one hand, the toy is decently made, has average strength, and has a nice appeal. However, it's nothing special for many. It is also on the pricey side if you don't get in on sale. At full price, I would not consider purchasing it. At a decent sale, I would buy it for friends. For free it is one of the better free gifts I have received.
