Best products from r/SexToys

We have tried it and thought it was okay, but I would personally recommend buying some alginate and Dragon Skin silicone.

 

For about the same price we got a much better toy--and have materials left over for more cloning fun. Dragon Skin is a professional grade silicone that is pretty widely used by both the movie and sex toy industry. You can choose the hardness/softness you want (we went with the 10A as that was what most forums suggested). It can be bought from Smooth-On directly or on amazon, ebay, etc. As for the alginate, we went with this mostly for the price and convenience, but it worked great.

 

Anything that won't leak (and is large enough to accomodate your anatomy, of course) should work as a container for the mould. We went with a QT cup (cheap and easy), but you can also simply cut the top off of a plastic bottle. Apparently, legos work surprisingly well and are a popular choice, but those little fuckers are too expensive IMO.

 

This redditor explains the process we followed pretty well and Youtube is full of helpful videos on how to do lifecasting. We actually ended up purchasing some plaster to make the positive mould that could be reused. (Side perk: a plaster mould of a cock sitting the bookshelf also makes for a hilarious conversation piece).

 

I realize this route sounds much more involved, but we honestly felt that it was much easier and more cost effective. The clone-a-willy kits seem too finnicky and leave little room for error. Having one shot to get it right can take the fun out of it and makes it hard to, er...stay hard (crucial to the process). Getting some wiggle room and ending up with a much higher quality end product was well worth the extra $10 (at least for us). Either way, I wish you the best of luck!

Rabbit vibrators are, in my opinion, not a great place to start when it comes to getting your first toys, as they are very easily hit or miss based solely on whether it fits with your anatomy. Depending on things as simple as your height, weight, or just general proportions (like how far apart your clit and vaginal opening are) a rabbit or similar dual-stim toy could very easily not work for you at all because it just won't line up right. They very much are not "one-size-fits-all," so relying on one as your first toy may not be the safest move.

I feel that you'd be a lot better off trying to find two toys that do one thing really well instead of one toy that does multiple things kind of meh. Or in this case, two things that do something kind of "meh," because while that egg might do the job well enough, I feel like the fact that it's so cheap, is not waterproof at all, and runs on batteries will mean that it won't last very long at all, or will just be kind of frustrating to use after a while, especially if you get another much higher quality toy to compare it to at the same time. I could be wrong, and the egg could be the most perfect toy ever, but being so far on the "low-end" of toys I feel could be a disappointment. I made the same mistake when I bought the Vibratex Water Dancer at the same time as my Wahl, because even though the Water Dancer is a fine enough toy on it's own, the Wahl just so completely overshadowed it that I never am inclined to use the Water Dancer at all.

So with that being said, it would be useful to have a better idea of what specifically you are wanting in a toy and what you want it to do. Are you hoping for a really powerful vibrator for clitoral stimulation? Or is having something insertable more important to you? Do you know how important g-spot stimulation is to you, or have you never experienced it before at all? Do you prefer a softer or harder material, either for internal or external stimulation (for instance, I prefer something softer on my clit, but my favorite internal material is glass)? In order to make some recommendations specific to you and your preferences, it would be helpful to know what kind of stimulation you are looking for or interested in. And, since you say you don't want to drop "a lot" of money on these toys, it would be helpful to know what your price range is. The two you posted would amount to about $90, which is a decent price range to work with, but knowing whether you'd be willing to go up to say $100 or $130 would be really helpful, in case we determine the Lelo Mona 2 would just be perfect for you.

TLDR; I don't recommend a rabbit/dual-stim vibrator to start with, so can you give some more specific information about what kind of stimulation you would like (ie, g-spot, strong clitoral vibrations, textured penetration, etc).

Honestly, I'd say ditch the kit and DIY it.

First, you want some alginate. This is what you will make the mold out of. A kit is going to give you enough for one try and this is where most people have problems (if it sets up too fast you are screwed). The 1-lb bag on Amazon is enough for four or five molds.

Second, you need body-safe silicone. I'd try either this or this. The 20A is going to be softer than the 30a. The two pints that you get from Smooth-on is enough for 3 or 4 replicas. You can also buy just the silicone from Clone A Willy. They claim that is body-safe and you'd get enough silicone for one dildo.

Third, you'd want to get something to make a tube out of to create the mold. A plastic water bottle like a 1L smart water bottle would work fine.

Fourth, you may want a vibrator to insert into the silicone before it cures (if you want a vibrator instead of a dildo). The one that comes in a kit is pretty bad. A Tango would be pretty awesome.

Finally, a good cock ring is indispensable when it comes to keeping your FWB hard through the molding process.

If you are set on a kit, the Clone A Willy kit works OK. The biggest issue I had was that it comes with a big, piece o' junk vibrator to insert into the silicone. If you didn't use the vibrator there wasn't enough silicone to get the job done. When you did insert the vibrator it was almost impossible to keep it from getting to close to an edge, creating a weak spot in the toy. After about three or four uses a small tear developed and it was no longer safe to use. If you do go for the kit, I'd highly recommend that you ditch the vibrator that comes with it and replace it with a Tango. Better vibrations and the thinner profile would work a lot better in this application.

>What kind of butt plug would you recommend ? Is there a particular really small size which is best for newbies like me ?

glass is fantastic; I started with this one, it's pretty small so you shouldn't have a problem

and with glass you can use any lube you want

>Edit: also do you have any tips? Eg how long to use a size before using a bigger size, how do I know when I’m ready for anal sex etc.

you can go up in size any time you want, it's just a matter of being relaxed enough, lubed enough, and going slow....don't just stick it in and forget it, play with it (push it out, pull it out, push it back in)

it's great if you get one with a longer shaft so you can use just your muscles to move it in and out while wearing it

once you can comfortably fit 3 fingers in, you should be okay to start working on a penis or dildo...not trying to shove it in the first time, or anytime you feel pain, is important

The Tenga Flip Orb will not crush your penis. Here's a picture of the "orbs" The best description I can come up with is that the orbs feel like little balls of very stiff gelatin mounted on rubber stalks. As you stroke, the orbs flip and turn and massage your penis. It's absolutely incredible and it does. not. hurt.

As to how masturbation affects vaginal sex? Well I don't see a problem with erectile dysfunction no matter which stroker you choose to buy. The thing that sometimes causes erectile dysfunction as it relates to masturbation, rather, is the use of porn. Some guys get so used to the super heavy stimulation of pornographic images that they struggle to get stimulated enough to gain or maintain an erection with the slow pace of real life sex and how it begins. With porn, you can focus on all your nastiest fetishes and "get right to the good part". In real life, most women aren't going to lick your unwashed ass crack and allow you to slap them in the face with your penis within 10 seconds of your pants being down. And so, therefore some guys struggle with staying hard. My answer to that is to only use erotica and porn sparingly and actually masturbate completely without ANY outside visual stimulus at least 40-50% of the time. So once again, the ball is in your court. Do you like intense sensations and are a cut guy or a guy who wears their glans exposed in their pants. If so, an intense stroker won't be too much. If you still have a foreskin and your glans is really sensitive, then you want to go less intense, more realistic. And even though I reccommend the Mini-Lotus, maybe you want to know what else out there as to Fleshlight fits your "style". If you want to consider other models of Fleshlights I reccomend you use the Fleshassist.com Advisor. The page has little sliders you push up to "10" or down to "" where you rate what is most important to you as to characteristics your favorite Fleshlight would have. Play with it and see what happens.

You absolutely want to warm up your stroker if you want the absolutely best experience (at least in my opinion). What I use is an electric heating pad. I roll the stroker in it for about 20 minutes on a medium setting (too high for too long and goodbye penile skin, lol). And you have to buy a good water based lubricant for any of the strokers I reccomended. Anything with any kind of oil or silicone in it will break down a TPR/TPE toy. I'm cheap so I use a lot of lube I mix myself. One bottle of powder mixed with water makes an average of 7 gallons of lube for about $20. I do small 8 ounce batches (1 teaspoon of powder for 4 oz. of water).

J-lube

Its a water based lube that comes in a powdered form. You can mix it to any consistency you like so you can experiment and find a thickness that you enjoy. I like mine on the thick stringy side and from my experience the lube has all of the properties that youre looking for! Its also toy safe so you dont have to worry about it harming your toys and it has the added benefit of being easy to clean.

I bought a bottle around a year ago and I still have roughly half of it left. You get a LOT of lube for a great price with this stuff.

Not a new toy, but for your Hitachi - get an inline lamp dimmer, like this. Now she can make it as soft or powerful as she likes. Hope it helps!

I agree with /u/redsnappa127 . The materials that make up the clone willy kit are standard life-casting materials. Search for molding alginate on amazon. You can get a pound of alginate for $15 http://amzn.com/B007PULSRM or you get get 4lbs from Smooth-on which is the company that professional body casters use for $32: http://amzn.com/B000QCM27Q or from smooth-on: http://www.smooth-on.com/Life-Casting-Alja-/c3_1185/index.html?catdepth=1

Then you need a platinum cured silicone which is the more expensive part $38: http://amzn.com/B00EOA25X2 or www.smooth-on.com/Silicone-Rubber-an/c2_1115_1131/index.html?catdepth=1

SmoothSil 940 is platinum cured and food safe so it should be safe to make into a dildo.

You just need a molding container and that would be easy to make out of an old water bottle, the 1L smart water bottles would be good as they are decently sized and smooth sided.

I've had this for 2 years and it's pretty nice. Takes a little tooo much time to get in for me but it's pretty great once in.

Prisms Devi Glass Anal Plug this thing is like legal heroin for me. I can ride it for hours at a time in pure and intense bliss.

Yes, I know it looks like the nJoys cheap bastard brother. I do own the Pure Plug 2.0 XL, however, and it doesn't come close to pleasuring me like the Prisms does.

J-lube is, pretty much, the go-to lube for fisting and large toys. I use it for the latter both, on my wife. The difference between Astro-Glide and J-lube is astounding.

2 tsp J-lube per 8 oz distilled water (distilled because you don't want all those tap water chemicals in your bum). Mix with whisk, boil in microwave, whisk some more until it's dissolved, let cool. Should be good for a couple weeks. Add a couple ounces of Astro Glide for preservatives and consistency.

the vibratex mini magic wand is $35 and it's fairly strong. it wasn't strong enough for me but i need a lotttt of power. i have a review of it here.

the wahl massager is also a great choice. it's corded which can be annoying sometimes but it's only $15 and really strong!

Alright thanks for all your help I'm going to buy the following three things.

The buttplug you like

The prostate massager

And a decent amount of lube

So I'm going to be shipping this to my families house as I'm still 17. Are there going to be giant dildo icons on the packaging?

I cut the cord and installed an inline dimmer (https://i.imgur.com/XoHxpll.jpg), makes for fewer cords and keeps the control closer to the wand, even when you use an extension cord to add length. I picked mine up on Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/Lutron-LC-300H-WH-Attache-On-Cord-Dimmer/dp/B0000BYEF9) but it looks like they are no longer available there.


We have had no issues with this setup and it's been about 4 years now. She loves the extra control it gives her, previously there was just the 2 speeds to choose from; "holy cow", and "way too much". I know newer models have better options but this was a cheap upgrade for us.

I recently got this I'm not sure how much of a difference it would be to the one you have but I absolutely love this one.

I've never tried it personally but you might want to give this a try: J-Lube OB Lubric.Pwd 10Oz

It's a powder that you mix with water to whatever consistency you need. It's original purpose is for cattle exams, so it may work like you need. I've seen it mentioned in BDSM forums.

Do your due diligence on ingredients and possible reactions.

Definitely suggest trying J-Lube. By far my favorite anal lube. Extremely slippery...

It is non-irritating, an obstetrical lubricant, and makes a total of about 6 to 8 gallons of lube (once dissolved in water) for 1 bottle.

J-Lube, which is just the dry material, thus its much cheaper and you can change the viscosity as you like. Use a small bottle with a dispenser. You should then empty and clean the bottle regularly (every month should be ok) as it doesn't contain any anti-bacterial and anti-fungal stuff.

I personally use j-lube but I have also used coconut oil (it does not hurt the silicone at all). J-lube is made with water and will dry out over time, but if you are wearing a plug for any extended time (I have worn mine overnight before) your body will naturally cover it with a mucus that will help it slip out when you are done. I guess if you wanted you could just apply water etc...

Coconut oil lasts a LONG time, but is an oil base... and while I have never found anything that it has had a bad interaction with, I have heard some have. (I have about 30 toys)
