Look, I get it. Some sex toys can look scary. Their robust and silicone bodies may make you think where the eff do I put this thing? But the good news is, these bad boys were made specifically for you and your pleasure. Check out out our MagicMen adult shop page which has everything adult shop related that you might need..

Once you get over their low-key janky appearance, you'll see they don't talk, ghost, or eat the last slice of pizza without consulting you first—and they certainly don't roll over when they're too tired to give you an orgasm.

Bullet vibrators are those tiny cute sex toys that you probably already know about because they're the kind most women and people with vulvas have. They're unintimidating, pocket-sized, and easily hidden if you're not in the business of screaming about your sex toy collection. And, if you've never tried masturbating with a little help from a vibratory friend, they're the perfect place to start.

"Bullet vibrators are a sex toy staple, whether you're new to toys or a pro," says sex toy expert Sammi Cole. "They're easy to use, simple to clean, and inexpensive (you can pick up basic bullets for under a tenner). They also have the added advantage of being small and very discreet."

Right next to the condoms, many a CVS, Duane Reade, or wherever you like to pick up a six-pack of TP and a candy bar sells bona fide sex toys. It's glorious. I love sex toy shops for the selection and informed salespeople who have heard and probably tried it all, but sometimes a trip to the drugstore is the most you can do. And why shouldn't you be able to snag a vibrator on your midnight tampon run? Check out out our Buy online vibrator page which has everything adult shop related that you might need.

After admiring them on the shelves, though, I wondered how pleasurable these pleasure products could be. They're cheaper than the LELOs and Craves of the world, but are any of them worth it? Years of sex-toy testing have left me with Champagne taste in vibrators and unwavering allegiance to the Hitachi Magic Wand, which is IMO the LBD of sex toys and something that everyone with a clit should try in their lifetime.

 

In the pursuit of better and yet still budget-friendly sex, though, I set the Wand aside and headed to CVS and Duane Reade to purchase the Bodywand Mini Massager ; the Durex Play Delight Vibrating Bullet; the Trojan Hot Spot Vibrating Ring ; the Durex Ring of Bliss Vibrating Ring ; and the LifeStyles a: muse His & Hers Pleasure Massagers , a kit that includes both a finger massager and a cock ring. I also enlisted an enthusiastic volunteer to help me try them all, which was free. Ahead, I rate them all on a scale of one to five pink purse emojis, which I chose because — well, figure it out.

 

Today, vibrators can come with breakup insurance, act as alarm clocks, and even give you personalized sex tips. While the technology is astounding, let's not forget the purpose of the vibrator: to provide you with sexual pleasure. Well, okay, it may have been initially created to treat the sexist and absurd notion of "female hysteria," but, thankfully, women have taken back the vibrator from Victorian-era male doctors.

 

That means that we get to enjoy all of the pleasurable results of vibes — as long as we know how to use them. Some vibrators are relatively straightforward; others come with multi-speeds and functions. There are even vibrators you can control through an app, or via Bluetooth. For those with vaginas, vibrators are commonly used to provide clitoral orgasms, but they can also provide multi-orifice stimulation. And they're not just for solo masturbation sessions. There are plenty of fun ways to use them during partnered sex, too.

So yes, vibrators are ah-mazing. But everybody is different, which means that one that works for your best friend might not be the best fit for you. Our advice? Jump right in, girl. You're The Bachelorette here, and you have a bunch of lucky suitors vying for your clitoris—err, heart. Except, this time, you don't have to just leave with *one* match. Here are your options:

What is A Bullet Vibrator?

Bullet vibrators are small, versatile sex toys that are great for stimulating both spouse's external erogenous zones such as breasts, nipples, clitoris, or testicles during foreplay and intercourse.

The classic, starter vibrator. It is small and bullet-shaped and can fit discreetly pretty much anywhere. "Bullet vibrators provide a focused vibration in one specific area, so think about where you want to experience that sensation," suggests sexual wellness educator Elise Schuster, founder of Okay so, a free app that connects anyone with questions about sex to experts.

You've heard people say, "The best things come in small packages," and where bullet vibrators are concerned, never a truer word was said. Typically around 2- 4 inches long and petite enough to carry in your jacket or bag, a bullet vibrator is a portable pocket rocket. To add to their charms, they're easy to use, light on the wallet and even simple to store and keep clean.

Don't let their petite size fool you though. Bullet vibrators are renowned for achieving some of the most intense climactic experiences around. Famous primarily for helping you achieve quick (and mind-blowing) orgasms through direct clitoral stimulation, the fun doesn't have to stop there.

The first time you use a bullet vibrator for clitoral stimulation, you may well climax quickly. If you'd like to prolong the experience, just experiment with where else you can place the toy on your body – see what feels good and don't be afraid to try new things. You can start by sending delicious tingles to your breasts and nipples, or other erogenous zones such as your inner thighs, neck or even your feet (depending on how ticklish you are).

Moving to more intimate areas once you're aroused, you can trail the bullet over your anus, perineum or outer labia for really intense sensations. One thing about bullet vibrators that people often forget is that you're not limited to using just the tip – hold it horizontally, and your toy will spread its pleasure over a wider area. This is particularly good for your outer labia before you move onto stimulating your inner pearl.

If you're in a relationship, sharing is caring! Your partner will enjoy having their erogenous zones stimulated by the bullet just as much as you do, plus they'll get a thrill from using it on your clitoris. Give them plenty of encouraging feedback, so they know when they're really hitting the spot in just the way you like it.

These amazing little toys are also brilliant to use while you're having penetrative sex. The vibrations are great for both you and your partner, whether you use it on your clitoris or elsewhere on either of your bodies. For many women, using a bullet on the clitoris while being penetrated means that they'll have an orgasm while their lover or a dildo is inside them, which can be exciting for both partners.

A really great addition when using your bullet vibrator is a lubricant. A few squirts of some silky, slippery lube will not only make things ultra-comfortable, but it can also make all the difference, especially on the clitoris, to prevent any possibility of soreness or over-stimulation. The added sensation of softness could also be just the thing to send you over the edge.

When it comes to the choice of bullets, there's a dazzling array of every permutation of features you could wish for. Speeds and patterns of vibration, the material the bullet's made from, battery-operated or rechargeable, ultra-quiet, plain or decorated the choice is yours. If you fancy using sex toys in the shower or bath, then there are even a whole host of waterproof bullets that will fulfil your desires perfectly. A bullet vibrator can be used in many ways to add external stimulation to foreplay activities or intercourse. Its compact design makes it ideal for breast, nipple, clitoral, or testicular stimulation.

Don't feel overwhelmed, though – just go for what's most important to you. The great thing is that because they're mostly a budget option, you don't have to limit yourself to having just one bullet. In fact, some ranges such as the tokidoki x Lovehoney bullets are even designed to be collectible.

Are they already sold on the idea? Wait, there's more! Bullet vibrators can also be used to enhance the effects of other toys. Some butt plugs have the benefit of a small hole at their base for a bullet vibrator to be inserted, as do some cock rings. If you're looking to experiment with anal play, a bullet vibrator can be an extremely pleasurable addition to a butt plug by creating deep vibrating sensations that will leave you quivering with pleasure.

Bullet or egg vibrators are small and discreet vibrators that can be made of metal, plastic, glass, silicone or other composite materials. It's available in different shapes and sizes – some are in bullet shape, others can be longer, rounder, slimmer or even in asymmetric shapes.

This type of vibrator is initially designed for clitoral stimulation, but it can also be used to stimulate penis, testicles, anus, and even sore body muscles. Both men and women can use bullet vibrators to enhance their sex experience, no matter for solo play or couple play.

How To Use Bullet Vibrators

Sure, bullet vibrators are pretty petite compared to rabbit vibrators or wand vibrators that you plug into the wall but don't underestimate them. Sammi says, "Because of their shape, they're great for really precise stimulation and focusing vibrations exactly where you want them most."

So, while many people will use bullet vibrators directly against their clitoral hood or clitoris, depending on how sensitive their anatomy is, you can use it elsewhere, too.

"Try tracing the tip all over your vulva to discover brand new sweet spots that aren't just the tip of the clitoris," she says. In short, take some time experimenting with what feels good for you.  Check out our Adult lube shop page which has everything adult shop related that you might need.

When the women of Reddit were asked what their favourite ever sex toy was, many were quick to chime in singing the praises of the humble bullet. One user said, "Honestly, my bullet vibe I got from a local store. It has enough speeds, was really inexpensive, and has been going strong for several months."

Another user added, "Remote control bullet vibe Lyla by LELO. Super reliable bullet that's pretty powerful and discrete, lots of speed settings and responsive. Had it for about two years and it's still great."

Using your hand, place the bullet vibrator somewhere externally—your clitoris, nipples, or anal opening, suggests Schuster. "Start out with light pressure and listen to your body. If you feel like you need more, increase the pressure."

If you're coupled up, try using it with your boo. "These can be attached to special cock rings during partnered sex so that it stimulates the clitoris and vulva during penetration," says sexuality coach Jennifer Doan.

We've put together some Christian-friendly tips and techniques for using a bullet vibrator to add intimacy to your marriage bed and spice things up without cheapening sex. If you have any additional tips or techniques, please leave them in the comments below so others can enjoy them too.

Bullet vibrators are easily the best vibrators for beginners, and not just because they're some of the smallest. They're simple to use–just turn them on and click through the different speeds and patterns. They're also super versatile. You can use these adult toys to stimulate all your erogenous zones, as well as with other toys (like strap-ons and vibrating panties).

Clit vibrators are another name for a subcategory of bullet vibrators which include sucking vibes and oral-simulators, like the Satisfyer Pro Traveler which has a cult-like following for a reason. It's near-silent, extremely powerful, and makes it feel like someone is actually going down on you.

Use it on other parts of the genitalia.

Don't just use it on your clit. You can also try tracing the tip all over your vulva to discover brand new sweet spots for you. Take some time experimenting with what feels good for you.

Use it on other body parts too.

There are so many other erogenous zones in your body. Your nipples, inner thighs, or perineum (the bit of flesh between your vagina and butt) are all hotspots of pleasure nerves that can make you feel good. Just a word of warning, though. Bullet vibes are shaped like bullets. They don't have flared bases which means if you put them inside your butt, they can get lost inside. So they're not safe for anal use. Make sure to keep your explorations external. 

Don't just use the tip of the vibrator.

The most obvious way of using a bullet vibe is to hold the tip of the toy against your sensitive spots, but there are other ways to use it. You can also attach it horizontally. That way, you can enjoy vibrations across a broader area. This is particularly great if your genitals are quite sensitive or if you prefer less intense stimulation.

Use tons of lube

Lubes are great. Lubes are amazing. There should be no shame in using lube. It makes everything feel better, and it prevents soreness and injury, too. A good lubricant enhances any sexual experience, be it with a sex toy or with a partner. Don't forget to use lube before using your bullet.

Vary the speed and pattern.

Lots of bullets come with a variety of speeds and functions, so you can personalize the experience to fit your needs and preferences. Some people like a gentle rumble from their toy, while others prefer more power and alternative vibration patterns.

Take it in the shower or bath.

You can also take them with you in the shower. There are tons of waterproof bullets out there which are perfect for bath or shower play. To make sure yours is safe to use in water, check the description on the packaging or research it online. It needs to say 'submersible,' not just 'splashproof.' Also remember: water doesn't make an appropriate lube (Too thin! Always disappears!). So go for a long-lasting lube that's safe to use with your sex toy. Use water-based lube, so it doesn't react badly. Do you have some sore muscles on your neck and shoulder? You can press the bullet vibe on your muscles, and the vibration will release all the aches and soreness. It works super well with the neck – your cervical nerves will cry for more once you tried to massage it with your bullets.

Involve a partner.

If you've never tried using sex toys in couple play before, bullet vibrators can be useful for beginners as they're just small and easy to use. Ask your partner to hold the toy lightly against your clitoris, and as then instruct them as they move it around and increase the speed. Better yet, incorporate penetration and vibration for more chances of winning an orgasm. Doggy style and reverse cowgirl position are the two best positions for clitoral access. If you are like me – can't reach orgasm only by penetrative sex, it's definitely worth it to apply some external stimulation. Actually, the vibrations can be pleasant to both you and your partner.

You ever tried to insert a bullet while having penetrative sex? This definitely can bring you surprises positively! Your vaginal muscles will feel more relaxed with the vibration, which makes the penetrating process more comfortable and more pleasant. As for the men, the wave on the shaft can provide a new level of sensation. My husband and I both love it!

Go hands-free.

If you've mastered the other tips, you can not try going in public with a bullet in your underwear. You can generate as much pleasure as possible without actually touching the bullet with your hands. You can sit on a chair and grind against the bullet. It's a great way to experiment with control, both with and without a partner.

Who doesn't want a lazy orgasm? Lie on your bed, slip your bullet vibe into your underwear and just enjoy! Let your body sense as much pleasure as possible and only press the vibe against the most sensitive point of your clit at the end. The process is a sweet agony, but the orgasm can be intense thanks to the build-up!

Use of Bullet Vibrator During Foreplay

For Her

Breast and Nipple Stimulation: When a woman's breasts are stimulated, the hormone oxytocin is released into her system and helps her feel the sense of bonding and connection with her husband. Oxytocin has also been shown to intensify a woman's orgasm.

Take a bullet vibrator, set it on low speed, and gently rub it over your wife's breasts while kissing and caressing them during foreplay. Start with the outer regions of her breasts and slowly move in towards her nipples.

Clitoral Stimulation: Give your fingers a break while manually stimulating her or take a breather while giving your wife cunnilingus and supplement the stimulation with a bullet vibrator. Set the bullet on a slow speed, and rub it above or on either side of her clitoris to start. After she's become very aroused, slide the massager directly over her clitoris without stopping directly over it. When she can't take it anymore, apply direct, clitoral stimulation on high speed until she's satisfied.

Tip:

• Apply a little water-based lube to her clitoris and surrounding area. A dry vibrator sliding over her clitoris doesn't feel good and might irritate it.
• Ladies, your husband doesn't know what speed or motion feels good. Let him know what feels good and what doesn't, and don't be afraid to take his hand or the vibrator and show him what you like.

For Him

Frenulum Stimulation: Press the vibrator against the frenulum of your husband's penis and move it up and down a little bit. The frenulum is where your husband's foreskin meets the underside of his penis shaft. It looks like a small "V" just below the head on the underside of his penis.

Testicular Stimulation: Here's a great way to add lots of stimulation while giving your husband a handjob or fellatio. Take the bullet vibrator and cup it in your hand while it vibrates on low speed, and then gently cup your husband's testicles with it while giving him a handjob or blowjob. This technique will blow his mind!

Perineum Stimulation: Gently press the tip of the vibrator against the skin between his testicles and anus while giving him a handjob or fellatio. This is a susceptible area and will most likely send your husband over the moon.

External Prostate Massage: Use a bullet with a stable, low-frequency vibration to stimulate your husband's prostate by firmly pressing the tip of the vibrator on the skin between his balls and anus while on the highest vibration speed. Its sturdy, rumbling vibrations will penetrate deep into his body and stimulate his prostate.

Use of Bullet Vibrator During Intercourse

For Her

Clitoral Stimulation: Most women can't orgasm from intercourse alone. They need some sort of clitoral stimulation to have an orgasm. Take a bullet vibrator, and press it against your clitoris while making love to your husband. This is a great way to have simultaneous orgasms with him.

For Him

Testicular Stimulation: Use the cupping technique above and stimulate your husband's testicles while having sex.

Perineum Stimulation: Use the tip of a bullet vibrator to stimulate your husband's perineum while having sex.
