Toys that purr

Playtime tips:

Before you choose a toy, consider your needs and preferences. Do you prefer to focus attention on your clitoris or vagina? What shapes appeal to you? Do you have a colour preference? Have all these answers in mind when shopping for the perfect playmate.

Do you have trouble reaching orgasm during penetration? Do you want G-spot stimulation? Be guided by your sexual desires when choosing a vibrator.

If you are going to insert anything anywhere, use loads of lubrication.

Keep your toys clean and store them in a cool, dry place.

If you are sharing toys with your partner, always use a condom.

Never use the same toy vaginally that has been used anally without cleaning it or covering it with a condom.

Make sure you use good quality alkaline batteries, such as Energizer or Duracell, as poor quality batteries tend to leak and ruin vibrators.

Silicone products can be used in water and washed in the dishwasher - although perhaps not when the dishes are in there.

Cyberskin products, which feel just like skin and even wrinkle to the touch, work best when used with Cyberskin powder and lubricant, and should be cleaned with warm water and stored in a clean, dry place.

Rubber dildos may feel stiff upon first use, but they'll become more flexible with time.

Work slowly with your product - you might find it's not the right shape or size. Experiment with different products until you find the one that suits you.

If your toy's vibration is too powerful, cover the toy with a cloth.

If you decide you're in the market for a sex toy, try these sex shops strictly for women:
