Clt-O-riffic...it is a shape we patented...it creates the perfect angle for clitoral stimulation.

Does it involve probes and a small computer? If so I think I have seen it.

Haha, well, I handed my friend a few bottles of dye the last time I got it done and said "have fun." So the end result is that it's mostly purple with some cool magenta/pink strips here and there.

TPR, TPE, and the cadillac of materials...Silicone. These materials have come down in manufacturing costs to the point of being affordable to produce and retail. Our Pure Skin material is made with TPR, and it is super realistic!

How do you decide what adult stars to partner with to do sex toys in their name?

I share a good portion of my toys and jelly toys are not safe for sharing.

Jelly toys used to be incredibly popular. Go ahead and love them, they hVe been popular for years. I think they got a bad rap recently because of peoples concerns about phthalates. To get jelly material you need to use plasticizers ...that's what phthalates are, the softeners to make jelly toys pliable. Remember, though there are concerns about phthaltes, no peer reviewed scientific research actually links the ones used in sex toys to anything harmful.

I don't own any silicone toys yet... most of them are pretty exspensive. Maybe I just need to look around more next time I do some online shopping.

I'm about to go do my bangs in blue or turquoise, since they didn't seem to hold the pink very long.

If you're concerned about phthalates, it's always pretty easy to cover a toy with a condom too.

What kind of hairdye? Punky Colour or Special fx is the best I think.

That would look incredible...Im pretty shy with my hair, toned down...maybe I will bring that up to her. She has an amazing face and makes colors pop in her hair.

We use focus groups to present new ideas...you instantly know if it's a serious idea, or more of a gag gift. We have chosen gag gifts carefully...items that spark some intimate fun, bachelorette, or bachelor party accessories basically. We have a design license with game designers, and we sell tons of these. Our Love Poker Game was named novelty item of the year by XBiz Magazine

Yes, there are! Here are some of the California Exotic rabbits that are rated 6-or-above on the EF safety scale. A 6 on the scale is made from silicone composites. Some of those toys are about the same price as the rabbit you bought, so it's amazing how reasonable silicone can be priced.

Things are going (and have been going) in the direction of what women want. It's a women's world now & Cal Exotics knows that.
We see more safe&pure options, green toys, wireless & waterproof.
As mentioned earlier, our sister company Jopen will be unveiling a new product that will change sex toy industry forever

I use Special Effects, it's my favorite. I like Splat for blues, since just with what I've done with blue dyes the Splat seems to hold better, or at least not fade out as oddly. But that's just my experience with a few blue dyes, not the be all end all, lol.
