If you’re using a toy with a condom, make sure that the condom covers the entire surface that comes in contact with your genitals. The condom should be thin enough for you to see, feel, and press the buttons through the barrier.

“You can use a wand during masturbation or partnered play for direct and targeted stimulation of the genitals,” Frye-Nekrasova says. “You can also use wands as foreplay of partner play by giving each other full-body massages with wands to fully relax and prep for fun together.” We named this small but mighty vibrator the best sex toy for travel, but it’s also an elite clitoral vibrator on its own, offering targeted vibrations as well as a lovely rumbly sensation across the vulval.
