Review: Honey Play Box Crave

Honey Play Box Crave

My inbox is always open. So when a reader recently reached out to me for help finding her dream sex toy, I was more than happy to assist. They were after a wearable toy, similar to a panty vibe like the popular Lovense Lush 2, but rather than vibrations, they wanted something that moved. While thrusters were okay, what they envisioned was something that could “flex like a penis” or use a “come hither” motion to stimulate the G-Spot. Despite not having something like this already reviewed at the blog, I still figured I could find a product suitable enough to recommend, until I realised just how unique an idea it was. I kept looking though, and couldn’t have been more pleased when my very own site sponsor, Honey Play Box, announced their G-Spot Master Collection, and in it was the wearable yet rotating Crave.

Review Round-Up: Grinders

Grinders Review Round-Up

Like many people, grinding was my entry point into the world of masturbation. Whether it meant rubbing at my vulva by hand or going on top of my pillows at night, I was doing it long before I even knew what a vibrator was. But now, after seven years of testing hundreds of sex toys, it’s not often I find myself resorting to this kind of “acoustic” play anymore. After all, I have all kinds of gadgets that can achieve the same thing for far less effort, and thus grinding had become but a distant memory. So, you can imagine my surprise when in 2021 a new toy trend seemingly emerged out of nowhere: grinders. From indie makers releasing a wave of textured non-insertables, to retailers relabelling old favourites like the We-Vibe Touch and Tenga Iroha+ Kushi as grindable toys, clearly something was going on, and I wanted in. Which is why I sought out six of the best for today’s very special grinder review round-up!

Review: Womanizer Starlet 3

Womanizer Starlet 3

I’ve been on a hunt lately to find good quality suction on a budget. It saw me review the viral Sohimi ROSE, try out the infamous OSUGA Cuddly Bird (also known as the Biird Obii), and even take a second look at the toy that started it all, the Satisfyer Pro 2. But I would be remiss if I didn’t bother trying the beginner’s option from my favourite suction brand, WOW Tech’s Womanizer. Now, I must warn you, while the Womanizer Starlet is the cheapest option in the luxury German brand’s current catalogue, at $120 AUD it is still quite a hefty sum. Plus, with a favourite like the Womanizer Liberty coming in at only $30 more, it had me a little unsure of where this product could possibly fit in with the rest of my toys. But, with a recent rerelease taking it from the Starlet 2 to the Starlet 3, alongside the updated Premium 2 and Classic 2, I just couldn’t resist giving it a go when Lovehoney reached out about a review.

Beginner’s Guide To Sex Toys

Beginner’s Guide To Sex Toys

After spending the last few months updating Princess Previews, I’ve had plenty of time to think about the direction I want to head in the future. While reviews are my bread and butter, I also want this to be a hub for all kinds of resources and education about sex toys. But while my guides are some of my most popular posts, and I regularly write them for other websites, I surprisingly have very few of them here. So I resolved to fix that, but the only question was, where did I start? There’s so many things to talk about when it comes to this industry, from choosing your first toy and ethical brands, to the different kinds of orgasms and lube. It seemed, however, the best place to start was at the very beginning, so that’s why today I’m sharing my Beginner’s Guide To Sex Toys.

Review: Magic Wand Mini

Magic Wand MiniAs with all things in life, it can often be hard to recognise change and progress when it’s part of your day-to-day. But every now and then something comes along that gives you that moment of realisation of just how far things have come, and that’s what today’s review item did for me. You see, when I first turned eighteen and decided to buy a sex toy, I scoured the interwebs for the perfect product. I wanted something with power, but at the same time didn’t have much money and needed it to be discreet. Being fond of clitoral stimulation, a wand massager was the ideal choice, but the options available were… less than ideal. After many failed attempts with mini versions, whose smaller size better suited my privacy needs at the time, I was eventually able to fork out for a Magic Wand Rechargeable, which clearly worked since it remains my favourite sex toy to this day. Still, I can only imagine how much easier things would have been for myself and others if a toy like the Magic Wand Mini had existed back then.
