These days, women are looking for new ways to pleasure themselves.  Sometimes a vibrator or a dildo can be a little bit “full on” for us.  If you are in search for something that provides a more subtle touch and feel, then a vibrating egg or a bullet might be the sex toy for you. 

What is an egg?

Just to set the record straight, bullets are technically categorised as eggs, but because people failed to connect the dots, retailers decided to create a whole new category for them.  Eggs are adult massagers manufactured in the shape of an egg or a bullet.  They generally measure less than 10 centimetres in size and comfortably fit in the palm of your hand.  The majority of the bullets and eggs on the current market come equipped with vibrating motors that will just about rattle your bones if you turn them on full blast. 

Adult toy manufacturer, Doc Johnson has been leading the charge with an extensive range of vibrating eggs made from everything from silicone to plastic.  In fact it is probably safe to say that the average sex toy “consumer” would feel a little boggled by the gigantic range of stimulators that you can find on the internet.  Some have one vibrating device and some have two.  Some have a controller and some have just one “on/off” button.  Some are shaped like a bullet, and some are shaped like a flying saucer.  So it is pretty difficult to make a decision on which is the best one for you. 

Personally I prefer the bullets because they can be inserted.  Just be mindful that they are only small so you can lose them down the deep dark abyss, and let me tell you that they are not fun to retrieve.  The vibrating bullets generally have a more focused vibration that you can point directly at the clitoris or outer labia.  That is not to say that the traditional shaped vibrating eggs don’t feel good, but they definitely cast a wider net.  Orgasm generally takes longer, but when it does happen it is usually extremely explosive. 

Can I share my egg with my boyfriend?

Yes, of course.  Bullets are a great way to stimulate a man.  Use the egg to gently stimulate the scrotum and the area between the scrotum and the anus.  This creates a soft vibration that stimulates the p spot or “male g spot”.  You can also use the device on the end of the penis.  Either way these adult toys make a perfect tool for foreplay. 

Can I use an egg to stimulate my anus?

Generally only the bullet shaped eggs can be used to stimulate the anus as the egg shaped devices aren’t designed to fit into tight spaces.  In this case I would probably recommend buying a vibrating butt plug like an I-Plug or a Joy Toy 9.  There are many anal probing devices that would feel better and be more suited for anal exploration. 

How much should I pay for an Egg?

A decent vibrating egg will cost you anywhere from $24 up to $150 for a Lelo product.  It can be worth spending the extra money for an egg that will last you a long time, but I recommend starting with the lower end of the range to get a feel for things before breaking the bank. 

How do I clean a bullet or Egg?

It is a MUST to clean your product immediately after using it.  Every adult toy requires a special sanitary regime whether it be “soap and water” or toy cleaner and a dry cloth”.  Click here for more information about cleaning your sex toys.
