A 10-Minute Yoga Flow to Destress While Traveling for the Holidays

The bullet vibe is the LBD of the goodies drawer. Classic, uncomplicated, goes with everything, and gratifying with minimum effort. Everyone should own a bullet vibrator; expect that as the slogan for my presidential campaign one day.

Case in point: plusOne’s best-selling bullet vibrator. You’ll find all the typical utilitarian perks of a bullet: small, silent, good for travel, and waterproof as a bonus. But do note the 10 settings and five-star rating from over 9,000 very happy customers.

The TikTok-famous rose toy blossomed in droves this year, with every other major brand releasing their variant on the trend. So what’s sitch, is it simply just *gorgeous*? That’s part of the appeal! A rose toy is small, non-intimidating, discreet, and dare we say it, knows how to sit pretty on a nightstand. 

But beyond that, it’s a brilliantly cost-effective way to deliver clitoral-targeted pulsation pleasure. If you’re a fan of oral-sex-simulating suction toys, consider this rose toy an easy add-to-cart.

The OG Magic Wand—formerly known as the Hitachi Magic Wand—has been around for the ‘60s, and back then it was marketed as a back massager. You couldn’t get away with that cover-up now, since everyone and their mom (don’t overthink it) has used the wand for more below-the-belt reasons. But while the buzzy rose toy succeeds in being subtle, the Magic Wand has that proven track record of keeping pleasure-seekers satisfied.

Dame always knows how to put out good vibes, but I have a special place in my heart (and otherwise) for the Arc. This vibrator is doing at least dual-duty when it comes to orgasms. The design is curved for precisely targeted g-spot stimulation. But it also features a firm-yet-squishy ridged “head” for clitoral stimulation. And roam if you want to—in my experience, the Arc is a divine tool for exploring *all* your erogenous zones.

Speaking of dual duty, Quinn’s Groove vibe is a perfect pick if you’re new-ish to sexploration and not sure what toys will make you sing. On one end you have a massage wand to use externally, on the other you have a proper G-spot vibe to use internally. Oh, and to add an absolutely scintillating detail, the tail end of the vibe warms up! So yeah, at less than $40 the Groove is a win-win way to find your pleasure.

Moving slow but steady through the sexual response cycle tends to yield better orgasms (and hey, you’ll certainly enjoy the journey to climax once more). So if you’ve gotten to a very “wham, bam, thank you, ma’am” place with your S.O., grab plusOne’s Feather Tickler ASAP. The design is light, flexible, easy-to-use, and so non-threatening, even for the most squeamish-about-sex-toys partner. And if you need to kick them to the curb, no worries; the tickler also serves as a delightful preamble for solo play.

Whether you’re sick of double AA batteries or need a reward after ending your situationship (for now), we’d suggest LELO for a *serious* solo play upgrade. Their products balance sophisticated tech with sleek style—like, even their standard rabbit vibrator outruns so many models by miles. 

Soraya 2 improves on the rabbit’s design with more than a few fun details. Think: a broad tip for maximized “oohs” and “aahs,” 13 pleasure settings, a flexible clitoral stimulator to adapt seamlessly to different body types. Come for the lux design, stay for the multiple orgasms.

On the flip side, sometimes it’s exhausting to deal with a sex toy that can do-it-all; penetrate, vibrate, suck, heat, stimulate the clit, stimulate the g-spot, file taxes, run a marathon, and make a Trader Joe’s run at noon on a Saturday. If you desire simplicity, the pleasurably still comfort of a dildo will certainly do. Hello Cake’s Big Dil is a crowd pleaser, with a charmingly squiggly length that work well with vaginal and anal use.
