This toy emits more gentle vibrations, so you can directly stimulate your clitoris- or other erogenous zones- whilst maintaining precision and delicate movements.
This accessory is pocket sized and lightweight, making it a truly wonderful sex toy for beginners. It’s also a multifunctional toy as you can use it to stimulate the nipples, the inner thighs or the vulva, for more gradual sexual exploration that encompasses different parts of your body. Fun, easy to use and non penetrative, it’s the perfect first step into the world of solo play.
