Review: ZALO Desire

In my recent review of the ZALO Amorette I spoke a lot about how I have adored the brand’s magical girl inspired line of toys, Sweet Magic, for years, and about how getting to try the latest addition to the range was a dream come true. But today’s review is even more special for me, because I’ll be taking a look at one of the original products from the range, and one that I feel like I’ve had my eye on forever. First released in 2017, but currently being re-promoted as ZALO continue to expand to the western market, the Desire is a true wish-list item for me and I was overjoyed when the brand asked if I wanted to review it. I’ll admit that its stunning appearance has a lot to do with why I wanted it so badly, as it looks more like a staff that one of the powerful anime girls from my childhood would wield rather than a sex toy, but there is a lot more to it than just that. As ZALO’s first thruster style toy, a toy type that I love but have yet to have much experience with, this product also boasts a self-heating function and turbo mode. Oh, and did I mention it’s also really cute?

Review: Hot Octopuss AMO

One of my most anticipated products to review in 2019 was the Hot Octopuss DiGiT. As one of my favourite manufacturers, primarily due to their ability to harness powerful yet rumbly vibes in their sex toys, the announcement that they were going to release their first clitoral vibrator was a big deal. It was well worth all the fuss too, because the DiGiT was one of my favourite toys of the year, coming in at Number 8 on my Top 10 Sex Toys of 2019 list. But whilst the vibrations were certainly there, I did have a little bit of an issue with the non-removable finger band the toy featured. While one of the main design features, so I can’t really fault it, I did find it restricted my use of the toy, and also mentioned that it might pose a greater issue for others, for instance those who are left-handed. As such, I suggested an upgrade to the DiGiT where the band could be removed, or alternatively a version without the band at all, as a fix. So, as Hot Octopuss are a fantastic bunch who actually listen to reviewer feedback, here we are again with the brand new AMO, a toy that’s very similar to the DiGiT… just without the band!

Review: ZALO Amorette

I have been lusting after ZALO’s Sweet Magic line for years. You see, unlike most other toy brands, ZALO splits their products into collections, which are each inspired by a different theme. Since I tend to review new products though, so far I’ve only tried their latest range, the Legend Series, which takes its aesthetic cues from ancient Egypt. I loved those products and they really helped to establish ZALO as one of the best companies in the industry, but really it just made me want to try the Sweet Magic line even more. Based on the anime magical girls I grew up with, like Sailor Moon and Cardcaptor Sakura, I felt like these toys were made for me. But despite all this, Sweet Magic is a fairly old range, and as such it seemed unlikely I would be asked to review anything from it. So you can imagine my excitement when ZALO recently announced they would be adding a new toy to the collection! Plus, not just any toy, but the Amorette, an absolutely beautiful egg-style vibrator that truly looks like nothing I’ve ever seen before.

Review: Cosmopolitan Enchantment Bullet

After a lovely break over the last few weeks I’m feeling refreshed, recharged, and ready to get back to reviewing! So to kick things off I thought we’d take a look at a toy I teased a fair bit last year and that is the follow-up to my previous review featuring the Cosmopolitan G-Spot Romance. That’s right, it’s finally time for my review of the Cosmopolitan Enchantment Bullet, the second toy from the popular magazine’s new range that My Little Secret were kind enough to send me recently. Now, I quite enjoyed the G-Spot Romance, but the biggest issue I faced with it was that I felt its luxury price tag did not reflect what was essentially a very basic vibrator. The Enchantment Bullet on the other hand is a lot more reasonable, as with a price of $59.95 AUD / $42 USD this toy costs about the same, if not less, as a lot of other bullet vibrators of its kind. Still, after my review of the G-Spot Romance I couldn’t help but feel less than confident with the Cosmopolitan range, but that just made me even more eager to try out the Enchantment Bullet to see if it would be able to help renew my excitement for this brand.

Review: Blush Novelties Aria Flutter Tongue

My favourite new sex toy trend this year, and it seems the entire internet’s, has to be the flicky tongue-like stimulators that appear to keep popping up out of nowhere. It seemed to all start with the Zumio back in 2017, which ZALO then put their spin on by making the moving element more like a silicone tongue. Since then I’ve seen countless other companies implementing this same idea for their own toys, with some going so far as to make the “tongue” literally move back and forth, and others just using vibrations to give the appearance of movement. These sorts of oral-sex imitators aren’t entirely new, but the renewed public interest has certainly been encouraging companies to develop new and exciting tech for it, which seems to go hand in hand with creating even wackier designs than usual. Two toys that have gone viral this year because of their hilarious looking (but also oddly seductive) flapping tongues are the Pipedream Fantasy for Her Ultimate Pleasure and the Blush Novelties Aria Flutter Tongue. So I knew I wouldn’t be doing my duty as a sex toy reviewer if I didn’t try at least one of them before the end of the year, and since Pipedream is on my blacklist, it had to be the Aria Flutter Tongue!

Review: Dame Kip

On August 9th 2019 at approximately 6:58pm my We-Vibe Tango was pronounced dead after finally losing its long battle with battery failure. It was a truly sad day, as even though I knew the end was near I still wasn’t quite ready for it, because I had yet to find a successor. The Nu Sensuelle Point was the obvious choice, and as my second favourite bullet vibrator it was more than worthy of taking over the Tango’s work. But it had health issues of its own to contend with, this time in the form of the buttons struggling to respond. So, instead, I put my hope in a new toy, the Hot Octopuss DiGiT, but despite strong vibrations I couldn’t help but feel its use was limited due to the restrictive finger band. As such it’s been a pretty dark time for me since then, but I got through it knowing that one day I would find a worthy replacement. So, when I heard whispers about an amazing new clit vibe I thought perhaps my time had finally come. At least I did until I heard who was making it… Dame Products.
