Sex Toy Review: Durex Play Vibrations Love Ring

You'd think that one cock ring couldn't be that different from another, right? In this case, definitely wrong. The Durex Play Vibrations Love Ring comes in simple but attractive packaging, and retails at around £6.99. It's single-use only and the battery lasts for around 20 minutes.

One thing that sets it apart from many cock rings tested of late is the fact that the ring itself isn't very stretchy. Of course, it's plenty stretchy enough to insert a penis but not enough to give the option of being worn around the scrotum too, I suspect it would cause discomfort. So for guys who prefer to wear cock rings around the scrotum, give this one a miss.

Despite this factor, everything else was fabulous. It was noticeably more powerful than many other cock rings, without sounding like a low-flying aircraft. This results in delighting the clitoris and vibrating the entire penis - cue beaming smiles all round.

And really, there's not much else you can say about a cock ring. It's powerful and it works! I do think that the price is pretty steep for a single use toy, but if you're looking for that 'wow' factor or you've never tried a cock ring before, you'd do well to start here.

Sex Toy Review: Intimate Organics Intense Clitoral Stimulating Gel

I was expecting something special when I reviewed the Intimate Organics Intense Clitoral Stimulating Gel, particularly given it's rather steep price for such a small tube. Sadly, I was disappointed. This stuff comes in different strengths, and I was using the most intense one. In short, it didn't work.

With other lotions and potions of this nature, the effects are usually pretty quick. But I put some on and waited. And waited. Then put some more on and fiddled around a bit in case I hadn't put it in exactly the right location (you know how fickle women's bits can be!)... but no. Absolutely nothing happened.

At best, it made a good lube, but in terms of producing nice tingly feelings or a more intense orgasm, it definitely did not do what it said on the tin. Save your cash.

Sex Toy Review: Screaming Two O Cock Ring

As we'd enjoyed the original Screaming O Cock Ring so much, we were rather looking forward to the Screaming Two O Cock Ring. Instead of just having the one vibrating bullet, this little baby has one at the top and one at the bottom, so dependent on how the guy wears it, it will stimulate different parts.

Worn over the scrotum, the cock ring will stimulate both the woman's clitoris and the guy's balls and perineum, with the added bonus of vibrating the guy's penis. Worn above the scrotum, it will give thrills to the clitoris and woman's vagina and perineum. So it depends on how your guy wants to wear it! Of course, if it's worn around the ball sack then it'll likely delay his climax which may be necessary when wearing this thing!

Sadly, the cock ring is single use - that is, you can use it more than once, but when the batteries are gone, they're gone. That's basically the only downside. The packaging isn't bad, it's functional and eye-catching and use of the cock ring is self-explanatory. It's probably a good idea to switch it on before putting it on too, as the switches are a little fiddly - NOT recommended when you've got lube covered fingers! The vibrations are powerful and it's fairly quiet... that is, it just sounds like a couple of bees in the room as opposed to a whole hive. You could get away with using it if someone was in the next room, I expect.

If you like cock rings, and in particular vibrating ones - go for this. It gets a thumbs up from both of us.

Sex Toy Review: Durex Play Very Cherry

There's not really an awful lot you can say about a lubricant, is there? But I'll have a go. Durex Play Very Cherry is a sugar-free, condom safe lube. As you'd expect from Durex, it's high quality, the packaging is really nice and it's got a pump lid, meaning no spillages if you knock it over or merely forget about it in the heat of the moment.

It tastes absolutely gorgeous, if you like cherries that is. The closest taste I can think of is the cherry sweets in Haribo Tangfastics, which happen to be my favourites! So this stuff is perfect for oral sex, or swirling over your partner's body and licking off... just use your imagination, the possibilities are endless! It's fabulous as a lubricant too, for handjobs or female masturbation. It lasts ages and doesn't stain so as well as looking great and tasting great, it's good value for money too! It's widely available, but if you're looking for a bargain, check out LoveHoney, who are currently selling it at £3.99. (Price correct at time of writing.)

Sex Toy Review: Screaming O Silicone Bullet Buddy Vibrator

I like the Screaming O range. It has a great variety of products and the prices aren't too high, so I was pleased when I was sent some stuff to review.

The Screaming O Silicone Bullet Buddy Vibrator is a cute looking thing which packs a punch! I received the bullet with the monkey sleeve, but the other ones available are bunny, dolphin, bear and worm. Also, when you order, LoveHoney aren't able to guarantee which one you'll receive as they're chosen at random. However, I don't think it really matters as you won't see much of it when it's being used for its proper purpose!

The toy is basically a bullet with a cute sleeve, which is removable. The batteries last around 80 minutes and are replaceable. The button is at the bottom, as with most bullets. It's a nice sturdy button which is impossible to get switched on by mistake if you've thrown it into your handbag or overnight bag. Therefore, this is the perfect toy for home or away. Only those in the know would realise what it was too.

The vibrations aren't hugely powerful, but still a lovely sensation, either for masturbation or for additional stimulation during intercourse. It's also fully submersible so great for bathtime fun!

Overall a lovely versatile toy which isn't too pricey. If you don't already have a bullet, you could do much worse than adding this to your collection. Though if you have one already, it's not different enough to warrant the additional purchase.
