Whether you’re flying solo, playing with a partner, or just exploring new ways to connect with your body, this guide is here to help. At LoveStash, we believe pleasure is empowering, and everyone deserves tools that make them feel good, confident, and excited about intimacy.

We’ve rounded up the most popular sex toy categories and explained how to use them, what makes them special, and how they can fit into your pleasure routine. From sleek bullets to luxurious rabbit vibes, from classic dildos to daring anal toys, this is your roadmap to exploring what feels amazing at your pace, in your way.

Bullet Vibrators: Small But Mighty

Bullet vibrators are compact, powerful, and endlessly versatile. Don’t let their tiny size fool you, these pocket-sized toys are famous for their ability to deliver intense, targeted stimulation. Whether you want to enhance foreplay, experiment with solo play, or add a little extra buzz to partner sex, bullets are an ideal beginner-friendly choice.

Take the LoveMagic Power Bullet for example. It’s discreet, sleek, and strong enough to bring on a quick orgasm or add some zing during penetrative sex. The smooth tip glides easily across sensitive areas, offering pinpoint precision or gentle teasing depending on your vibe.

How to Use a Bullet Vibrator

  • Try Full-Body Teasing: Use it across your chest, inner thighs, and behind the knees before heading down below. This builds arousal gradually and makes the climax even stronger.
  • Clitoral Focus: Place the tip of the bullet directly on the clitoris, or near it, for a variety of sensations. Experiment with different angles and speeds to find what feels best.
  • Travel Friendly: Bullets are great for taking on holiday or tucking into your bedside drawer. Just be sure to remove batteries or lock the travel mode if it’s rechargeable.

Dildos: Classic and Completely Customisable

Dildos are one of the most versatile and timeless pleasure tools out there. With options in silicone, glass, steel, and more, they come in nearly every size and shape imaginable. Some are ultra-realistic, others are bold and artistic, but all are designed to provide satisfying penetration with total control over pace and angle.

If you’re looking for something lifelike with a touch of elegance, try the Daewoo Steel Series Realistic Dildo. It offers the firm structure and smooth glide that many users love, and it’s ideal for those who want a luxurious experience.

How to Use a Dildo

  • Solo or Partnered: Use it during solo sessions for deep exploration, or let your partner take the reins during intimacy.
  • Hands-Free Fun: Many dildos have suction cups, allowing you to stick them to walls, tiles, or floors. This frees your hands to explore other parts of your body or to hold onto something for leverage.
  • Temperature Play: Glass or steel dildos can be heated or cooled for unique sensations. Always test the temperature on your wrist before using internally.

Rabbit Vibrators: The Best of Both Worlds

Rabbit vibrators are beloved for a reason. These dual-action toys stimulate the clitoris and G-spot at the same time, creating a powerful blend of sensations that many users describe as intense and completely satisfying. With their curved internal arm and fluttering bunny ears, rabbits are perfect for those who want to explore blended orgasms.

The Supercharge Rabbit Vibrator offers multiple vibration patterns and speeds, a flexible design, and soft silicone that feels silky against the skin. It’s like having two toys working in perfect harmony.

How to Use a Rabbit Vibrator

  • Position Carefully: Insert the curved shaft so it gently presses against your G-spot while aligning the external arm with your clitoris.
  • Start Slow: Use low settings at first to allow your body to adjust, then gradually build intensity as your arousal grows.
  • Experiment with Angles: Everyone’s anatomy is different, so don’t be afraid to move the toy slightly or reposition until you find the sweet spot.

Anal Toys: Explore a New Dimension

Anal play can bring a completely different kind of pleasure, and it’s not just for advanced users. With the right tools and preparation, it can be comfortable, exciting, and incredibly satisfying. Anal toys come in many forms from plugs and beads to vibrating devices and prostate massagers.

The Vibrating Anal Plug with Remote is a great starting point. It’s small, smooth, and beginner-friendly, plus the remote allows for easy control whether you're playing solo or with a partner.

How to Use Anal Toys

  • Use Plenty of Lube: Anal tissues don’t self-lubricate, so water-based anal lube is essential for comfort and safety.
  • Start Small: Begin with a slim, tapered toy and go slow. Let your body adjust before moving to larger sizes or more advanced shapes.
  • Add Vibration: For many, vibration can help relax the muscles and increase pleasure. Use gentle pulses or patterns and explore what feels best.

Cock Rings: For Staying Power and Shared Pleasure

Cock rings are simple in design but powerful in effect. By gently restricting blood flow, they can enhance erection firmness and duration while increasing sensitivity. Many options also come with vibrations for added stimulation, either for the wearer or both partners.

If you’re ready to give it a try, the Satisfyer Power Ring offers strong vibrations, a stretchy fit, and a user-friendly design perfect for beginners and experienced users alike.

How to Use a Cock Ring

  • Choose Your Fit: Rings should be snug but never painful. Look for body-safe silicone designs that are flexible and easy to remove.
  • Place with Care: Most rings are worn at the base of the penis, and some can be looped around the testicles for extra intensity.
  • Enjoy Together: Vibrating models can stimulate your partner during thrusting, making cock rings a great toy for couples too.

Lubricants: The Unsung Hero of Smooth Play

Lubricants make everything better, they reduce friction, enhance sensation, and help toys glide effortlessly across skin. Whether you're using a toy, playing with a partner, or flying solo, the right lube can completely transform your experience.

One of our most-loved options is the Wet Stuff Plus 270g Water-Based Lubricant, ideal for use with all toys, including silicone and latex. It's gentle, long-lasting, and easy to clean up.

How to Use Lube

  • Start Small: A little goes a long way. Apply lube to the toy or body area before play begins and reapply as needed.
  • Choose the Right Type: Water-based lube is the most versatile, but silicone-based offers longer-lasting glide (great for shower play), and hybrids offer the best of both worlds.
  • Get Creative: Try flavored lubes, warming formulas, or ones designed for anal play to suit different moods and adventures.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sex toy should I start with as a beginner?

If you're new to sex toys, a bullet vibrator is a great place to start. They're small, easy to use, and perfect for external stimulation. The LoveMagic Power Bullet is one of our top picks for first-timers.

Are sex toys safe to use?

Yes, as long as you choose body-safe materials like medical-grade silicone, ABS plastic, or stainless steel. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions, clean your toys properly, and use lubricant for added comfort and safety.

How do I clean my sex toys?

Use warm water and mild soap or a specially formulated toy cleaner after each use. For waterproof toys, you can rinse them directly under the tap. Avoid submerging toys that are not fully waterproof and never use boiling water unless the toy is made of pure silicone, glass, or stainless steel and is labeled boil-safe.

What’s the difference between a vibrator and a dildo?

A dildo is a non-vibrating toy typically used for penetration. A vibrator has motors that produce vibrations and is often used for clitoral, vaginal, or anal stimulation. Some toys combine both functions for a full-body experience, like rabbit vibrators or vibrating dildos.

Can I use lube with all toys?

Yes, and it’s recommended. Just be sure to match the lube to the toy. Water-based lubricants are safe for all toys, including silicone. Avoid using silicone-based lube with silicone toys as it may degrade the material. For example, try the Wet Stuff Plus Water-Based Lubricant for smooth, toy-safe play.

How do I store my sex toys?

Keep toys clean and dry in a dust-free, lint-free pouch or case. Avoid storing toys made of different materials together, especially silicone and jelly rubber, as they can chemically react. LoveStash also offers toy bags and kits for neat and discreet storage.
