Touche Brigit - traditional vibrator discontinued by Shots media - review by ~LaUr3n~

The Touché Brigit from Shots Media has a scalloped and unique texture. For those who like texture, it adds to the sensations vaginally and can be used externally on the clit, too. The bulbous head is great for g-spotting without looking too phallic, and the rumbly motor makes the entire length of the vibrator quiver. The silicone used for this vibrator is very silky and has no odor or taste. It allows for some flex, but still maintains firmness necessary to get at the g-spot. The design is great for beginners to the more advanced, since the shaft gradually gets thicker. It also has an eye to push: one button control for the power and functions. It's not rechargeable, but it does have good battery life and is also able to be used in the shower or tub!

Touché Brigit comes in four different vibrant color choices: blue, green, pink, and purple. This toy is made of silicone and plastic. The silicone is of very high quality. It's smooth, silky, and flexible. Silicone is hypo-allergenic, non-porous, and free of latex and phthalates. It's also a food-grade material. It has no smell or odor. There is very little drag to the surface but, due to the texture, this vibrator probably requires lubricant for most users.

The rest of the toy is made of non-porous ABS plastic. Because of the plastic, this toy cannot be boiled for sterilization, but it is still much more hygienic than other materials.

The surface of most of the shaft is a scalloping, like fish scales, that translates as a ribbing or studding. It's not for beginners, but it is slight enough that, provided enough lubrication, it should be enjoyed by plenty.

The Touché Brigit has a semi traditional shape and design, but its unique features make a world of difference. It has a defined head and slimmer neck for even more of a shapely feel. The length is very ample at 8" long. 6 3/4" of that are insertable. This amount of length is good for many women, since it exceeds the average length of the male penis. This vibrator does not have to be inserted all the way, or even most of the way, to be enjoyed. Its design is straight and gradually increases in thickness, so it can be inserted as far as the user would like without changing the level of pleasure.

The nicely shaped head is rounded, but also gradually thicker like the body of the vibrator. It is 2" long when you include the rib below its base. At the widest part the head is 1 1/2" in diameter, and about 4 3/4" in circumference. The neck slims out a bit to about 1 3/8" in diameter - 3 7/8" in circumference. At 3 1/4" down from the head is where the shaft begins to thicken, and this is also where the scalloping texture starts. Think scales of silvery fish or slinky mermaid. They pop going in and grip all the right inner parts coming out. The thickness peaks at around 1 3/4" in diameter. That's about 5 7/8" in circumference, a hearty amount! The texture goes all the way down to the bottom of the silicone material.

The bottom plastic part unscrews so that two AA batteries can be inserted. This toy is not very discreet being that it is fairly large and semi-phallic shaped. It's also not the easiest toy to travel with, but its silicone material makes it better than others.

Brigit may look fancy and frilled, but its controls are easy as pie. It only has a single push button on the bottom of the vibrator to control the power and functions. It's large and takes up the majority of the bottom of the vibrator. It's partially indented into the bottom, so it isn't as easy to accidentally hit mid use. To start it up, press the button once.

1. The vibrations start off on a steady and decently rumbly level. It's also very low on the noise, so this vibe is roommate approved...at least on this level it is. The vibrations are concentrated in the tip where there is a large bullet, but the shaft vibrates as well. It feels like it does independently. The vibrations are low, but are great for a teasing and relaxing warmup.

2. Pressing the button again increases the power to a more average level that can probably please a great handful of people. It's still rumbly and low on the noise.

3. The third level jumps a lot to a high level. The noise increases so that it requires a closed door not to be heard. It may be heard if outside the body. This level is great for those who like power, but the level does take a turn to be more on the buzzy side. The vibrations are still high quality and even, however.

4. Pressing the button again starts the first of the vibration patterns. On intensity level three it has long pulses of vibration that sound a lot like a cell phone on vibrate. This level is louder and more noticeable through a door.

5. This variation is also on the third intensity level and is a pulse, but it is faster than 4 with less space between the pulses.

6. Starting on the second intensity level, the vibrator pulses fast and then drops down to quickly do a staircase of increasing levels all the way to an intense peak.

7. A short pulse followed by a lone one of the third intensity level.

8. This level is the most random. It has medium, low, and intense pulses of varying lengths.

9. All on the same medium intensity level, this variation has short and long pulses that interchange.

10. A lot like nine, but switched up a bit.

The patterned options are louder than the steady vibration levels, so keep that in mind when you are trying to be discreet.

This toy is waterproof and works wonderfully in the shower and or tub.

Silicone is a wonderful material to take care of. It's non-porous, so you don't have to worry about bacteria harboring deep within the material. However, this doesn't mean it doesn't require cleaning. Bacteria can linger on the surface. Hot water and soap are plenty to keep this clean, but it's always a good idea to rinse a toy of any material before use. The design of the vibrator does make it more difficult to clean because of the grooves, but a soft bristled brush or washcloth can help remove grime caught in the texture.

Silicone can be used with oil and water based lubricants, but not silicone ones. They can ruin the material. If silicone lubricant is insisted upon, test spot the material before you ruin the toy. To make the texture more subtle, use more lubrication.

To store, remove the batteries, allow it to dry, and put it back in the package. It can be stored by itself, however.

The packaging for this product is simple, yet presentable. The vibrator comes in a plastic shell that slides into a box. The toy does include two AA batteries for operation. The box shows the toy through it, so it is not discreet, but it looks great and gives information about the toy. The company boasts excellent quality of materials and design. The toy also comes with an easy to read users manual in a few different languages.

This is my subjective experience section: this vibrator is awesome! I've been bored with toys lately and I didn't really expect this one to wow me, but it totally did. It jumped straight to my main toy box. The texture took only a few thrusts to get used to, and then it completely melted me from the inside out. It's incredibly arousing, even if I'm not very turned on to start. The vibrations make this toy stand out as well, because of their rumbly nature and power. The large bullet in the top and the vibrating shaft make this toy great for internal and external use. The texture can be rubbed or inserted. Either way, it really gets me excited. I tried to use the toy during sex with my partner, but it is unfortunately a little too big for that. It doesn't fit between bodies very well. He enjoyed using it on me, though!

I recommend this vibrator to all levels of experience. I will be looking forward to trying more from this line.
