Lipstick vibrator - discreet massager discontinued by Shaki Toys - review by SomewhatSomewhere

The one good thing about this Lipstick Vibrator is the cute Anime design of the box. Otherwise, I was pretty much disappointed.

Though the design and usefulness of this toy is quiet genius, it ultimately falls short of what it's meant to do. Meant to be disguised as a tube of lipstick and slid into a purse or pocket, the Lipstick Vibrator is quite discreet so in that sense it succeeds. It's also rather light, even with the battery, so no one would suspect it of being anything other than lipstick. However, this is where the good pretty much ends and the bad begins. Initially, I had some trouble opening the product to insert the AAA battery, but after toying with it a bit I finally got it. This toy comes with no directions, only the warranty which is written on the box. Another point of difficulty is removing the cap away from the "lipstick"; it requires quite some tugging.

As for the actual vibrations, they are weak. At first I thought I didn't have the battery put correctly in place, but upon taking it out and redoing the process, I found out that it wasn't something I had done but rather the product itself. The Lipstick Vibrator only offers one setting, and that one setting is good for one thing only: teasing. It didn't do much for me and I think this is due to that fact that the vibrations come from the base of toy, not the actual "lipstick" part. If you buy this, I advise that you have a backup plan to achieve an orgasm because this toy probably won't make it happen. On the flip side, because of the gentle vibrations, this toy makes almost no noise but, to me personally, that doesn't make it any better.

If you decide to purchase this toy, the care instructions are very simple. As listed on the box: "Wash after each use with a liquid anti bacterial soap and water." It's easy to care for, and a water-based lube is recommended to be used with it.

Though it didn't excite me very much, I'll probably keep it and use it if only for the novelty of it. It really is such a cute design and I'm rather upset the vibrations were, to me, just plain weak.
