Love drop - bullet discontinued by Cal Exotics - review by vanilla&chocolate

The Love Drop is a compact bullet-shaped vibrator, attached to a remote by a long cord, that is designed for clitoral stimulation. Because of the four settings that are very diverse in terms of intensity, this toy would work for more sensitive beginners or for advanced users who crave power.

The slightly curved tip of the bullet allows the user to achieve pinpoint stimulation, which some individuals (including me) require for orgasm. At the same time, because the vibrations are located throughout the entire bullet, it would also be possible to rest the length of this toy along the genitals in order to feel widespread vibration.

This toy is fantastic for solo use, and this is what I personally choose to use it for. However, because of its relatively compact and convenient size, it could easily be used during intercourse, perhaps sandwiched between two partners. Also, why limit it to clitoral use? It conceivably could be used to tease the nipples, or any other desired part of the body, either in a solo situation or as part of foreplay.

While this little Drop is primarily designed for female usage, I could easily envision this being used on a penis, particularly the underside, for added stimulation during a blowjob or handjob.

This being said, this toy is NOT SAFE for anal use because of its small size and lack of a flared base with which to anchor it outside the body. It is also not intended for vaginal use because of its small size and the tendency of the cord to makes its way into this area if it were inserted.

The Love Drop is constructed from plastic as a base. It has a PU coating, which lends it a wonderfully velvety quality that will provide a unique sensation not commonly found with other toys. Upon removing it from the packaging, one will notice a velvety, almost silky feeling. I cannot envision this feeling being unpleasant to anyone, as it is a kind of "upgrade" from the commonplace materials used to construct other toys. Because the texture is smooth, it will be favored by beginners. However, because of the unique twist on plastic that it has, advanced users will enjoy it as a deviation from the rest of their toy collection.

The material of this toy earns it a 7 on the toy safety scale. It is free of latex and phthalates, making it a fantastic choice for anyone with a latex allergy.

This toy has a very subtle smell that is not objectionable in the least. I have noticed that it goes away with disinfecting, washing, or both.

As I have not tasted this toy, I cannot comment on the taste.

The design of the Love Drop is excellent, in my opinion. The curve near the top of the toy is absolutely amazing for pinpoint clitoral stimulation, allowing the vibrations to be delivered precisely where one wants them. Because of this use, size does not come into play, as only a small portion of the toy is being used. However, if a woman wishes for her entire genital area to be stimulated, she could lay this toy along the length of her clitoris and labia. The 3 inch length of this toy would be perfect for this use. I could see beginners loving this toy, as it is not intimidating at all. However, because of the pinpoint stimulation and strong vibrations, advanced users would be satisfied as well.

Because of the compact size, it would be easy to hide both in everyday life as well as for travel purposes. I could see myself tucking it away into my makeup bag for a vacation. If discovered, it will be obvious that it is a vibrator, but it is so small that it likely will not be!

The power. Oh, the power. You will really get some bang for your buck with this toy - literally! I have also noticed that despite the strength of the vibrations, this toy is not a battery guzzler. The deliciously strong vibrations are located throughout the bullet part of this vibrator, and they are controlled by a long cord attached to a remote. The remote has two buttons, one of which has a "+" symbol, the other with a "-" symbol. Above the control buttons are four small lights arranged in an arc. If one is lit, the first setting is on; if two are lit; the second setting is on, and so on and so forth.

These vibrations have a buzzy quality rather than a rumbly one. There is no pattern with them; they consist of a consistent, strong, amazing buzz that will make even "clits of steel" shake and tremble with pleasure.

I, personally, enjoy strong vibrations, so I usually just press the "+" button four times so that I immediately have access to the highest setting. A slightly annoying feature is that the "-" button must be pressed four times if this toy is on the fourth setting and one wishes to turn it off. Otherwise, the controls are simple and straightforward. Anyone would easily be able to figure out this toy after one or two uses.

I live in a college dorm room, so the noise factor is one of the first aspects I examine when browsing new toys. That being said, I am very pleased with the noise level of this toy. It is noticeable on the fourth setting, but if smothered with a pillow or a blanket, they are not audible through a closed door. If one had a similar living situation and preferred the first or second settings, a pillow or blanket would probably not even be necessary.

Two AAA batteries are required to operate this toy. As lots of people don't have these lying around, don't forget to get some!

This toy is incredibly low-maintenance. Because it is waterproof, it can be immersed in water, either for some bath or shower time fun, or for cleaning purposes. I use a gentle soap and warm water, but toy wipes or toy spray can also be used. I do not find it necessary to wash the remote part of this toy; I concentrate solely on the bullet. If you wish to share this toy, I would cover the bullet part with a small condom for safety reasons.

Although I do not use lube with this toy, it can be used with either water- or silicone-based lubes due to its construction from two types of plastic. I do not foresee issues regarding compatibility with other toys; the only one that I can think of is not storing it near jelly toys that have not been cleaned properly. I personally store it in a small pouch with other toys of similar materials.

The Love Drop arrives in medium-sized plastic packaging that is similar to that of other toys. It is clear, with the toy readily visible, reducing the discretion factor. However, the packaging does not feature any lingerie-clad women in the way that other toy packaging does; instead, it features a flowery pattern. There were no user instructions included, but they are not hugely necessary because of the simple and straightforward nature of this toy's usage. I would assume that this packaging can be used as a storage box, albeit if discretion is not a factor.
