Ultimate Newbie Kit

Contributor: Owl Identified Owl Identified
Okay, so P'Gell brought up the ever hot topic of whether or not to use "beginner" in reviews lately, and it got me thinking.

If you had unlimited funds and you could put together a three piece kit for newcomers to sex toys (although not necessarily sex,) what kind of kit would you put together?

I want to see what you'd come up with! Specify who the kit would be for, too. Some toys are geared more toward different anatomy and interests, so go ahead and gear your kit toward someone's special interest or specific anatomy.

For example, I'll start. My ultimate three piece kit for someone looking to discover their G-spot for the first time and has little to no experience with toys.

Also I know some folks probably think that glass is a bad idea for someone new to toys, but the Bent Graduate is very thin and as someone that has gotten pretty rough with it, I think it's difficult to mess up with.

Let's pretend that my kit would come with a hand-written note about safety with glass toys though, just to be cautious

I think glass is a great material, regardless of experience.

Nice Kit, btw!

I'd prolly go with Siri, some Vixskin/O2 Dildo and some Pink Water Lube.

Or perhaps, the Pure Wand, a Mystic Wand/Wahl and some other lube.

I would be hard pressed to choose

If I were new to toys I would probably be so scared of the Pure Wand! Pink Water Lube on the other hand? Such a good call, especially if you're going to be getting down with some silicone toys.

I would put Mr.Softee or the new Original in silicone (which is the same thing, different material), the Bent Graduate, and a bullet vibe with multiple speeds and possibly patterns (my favorite bullet so far is not available on this site). I think these things would offer a great toy introduction and let someone feel out what they liked. Also, a sample of a silicone lube and a glycerin free water based lube to try with the toys. I wish someone made this one for me. It would have been perfect. (in my opinion)
I thought about putting Ella in... If I could put 4 toys then I would do this.
This would be for beginners in general, no specific focus, just experimenting for the first time.

Since I'm (semi-ish?) new to anal, a first time anal kit:

-Maximus lube (because you always need a lube when dealin' with the backdoor)
-Fun Factory's Flexi Felix (because a good set of anal beads is a great warm up)
-Happy Valley's Jolly Jack (because it's just that damn amazing)

I'm new to anal, too, and uhm.. this kit sounds pretty damn good, woman!

Enjoying my own sexual journey and new to the site I would think a welcome beginners kit wouldn't be based on anyone's specific desires but an assortment of items...

condoms
bullet or egg
mini vibrator like the pearlessence
classic butt plug
cock ring for the men
maybe a sex card game, feather teaser or a dvd
lubricant that won't damage toys
anti-bacterial toy cleaner
would need a note that goes into detail explaining everything edenfantasys has to offer on the site
and have it all packed inside one of the edenfantasys tote bags


It would be cool to get a welcome beginners kit like that. Not geared towards the expensive but a mix of interests. Not necessarily what I listed but something for everyone.

There would also have to be some kind of goal or limit to reach to receive one otherwise every tom dick and harry would join just for the tote. But it could be something fun.

I will pretend I am putting it together for my friend:

Liv A good vibe for gspot, or not...whatever.
Onye one good bullet with a shit ton of power
Isis for a great dildo that is non-threatening
Sliquid H2O for a good water based lube with no glycerin or parabens

And I would include a good silicone lube for her to use for sex or if she buys non-silicone toys ( Better sex )

I've never used glass. But I'd really love to try it. I'm saving up for it right now.

I would go with a bullet with various settings, a dildo, and a rabbit. Also add condoms.

Ooh, I love the idea of this thread! I'm going to favorite it so I can share it with newbies!

I'm going to put together a few "kits" here...

My Anal Beginners Kit would include:


Sliquid Ride, because it's so totally body safe. I honestly thought I was allergic to all lubes, so I would only use spit until I discovered this stuff. If a partner would bring out a bottle of lube I'd get scared. Sliquid ride opened new doors for me, and it's a lot thicker than spit, so a new user would be able to take girths that the woudn't be able to without it.


Then, the Tantus Slim, so you could have something easy to work in, and it can be worn during intercourse so the user can taste that first delicious clench of an orgasm with something for their sphincter to hold on to.


And finally, the Alumina Motion (my review), in case the user has a hard time inserting soft things, like I do. The small end of Motion would be perfect for an anal newbie, and even has two little "bloops" like the Fun Wand. It's also excellent because of the ideal taper and smoothness. And finally, once they decide they like it, they can just flip it around, lube up, and graduate to the big end!

My G Spot Seekers Kit would be designed for people who are already comfortable with average-sized toys, but who haven't found their g-spot yet.



NobEssence's Smooth S Shape, aka Seduction gets the first slot in this kit. It's a g-spot homing device, just like the Pure Wand---but it's much lighter, much warmer, and it doesn't flip over (I really hate that about the Pure Wand! Sometimes I let go... and then it's focusing on the wrong side of my vagina!). Also, the ball-type end of the Smooth S Shape is identical to the large ball end of the Pure Wand, and then instead of a very-precision, can-feel-too-pointy-fo r-some smaller ball on the other end, it has a girthy 2" end for g-spotting with once you feel ready to handle that size. Seriously, though, squirting with the Seduction is easier than pie. Plus, if your clit is low, you get dual stimulation when using the ball end.


The Tantus VIP (my review) is my favorite silicone dildo. The notch at the coronal ridge is great on the clit or in the g-spot, the rigidity is perfect, the curve can't miss. If you don't mind firmness, this dildo is perfect.


And then I suppose I ought to include the Ella---the other two should really have you covered, and if you're g-spotting with either of those toys you'll hardly need lube. Ella is a great g-spot seeking tool, too, though, and it's a classic for a reason. It's also softer than the first two I picked, for those who don't like a rigid toy.

Lets seeee.

Well regardless of what I was gearing the kit to, I'd probably be obsessive about making sure my selections "matched." So like all the toy and item colors would play off each other. I'd also be tempted mostly by luxury type sets, because I tend to think luxury toys make the best gifts as they're you know, luxurious? lol. Idk, something about the presentation and everything just seems more gifty.

Beyond that, I have a few ideas of what could be good starter themes for kits.

Beginner couples play kit with toys and accessories good for use with two people

Bath/shower time sexy kit with products that are great in the bath, like a nice waterproof entirely submergible vibe, some yummy soap and a plush robe maybe

Foreplay kit, perhaps with massage oil or a massage candle, a light teasing external vibe etc

There are lots of "beginners restraint" type kits, and I really like the idea of those. Most of the time though it seems like something in the premade set isn't as great as the rest. Hand picking the best plush beginner cuffs and blindfold etc might be a good option.

If I went brand specific, jimmyjane is offering some really cute gift sets right now for massage and general, like the "head to toe" set and "the treatment" set.

And of course, every set could use a nice quality lubricant.

I want to put together a My Partner Is Intimidated By Toys kit---no matter whether it's a male or female who's feeling intimidated, I think these products would be a great choice to get the toy topic rolling.



Jimmyjane's Afterglow (my review). Honestly, I would want to make sure that every couple ever gets at least one of these over the course of their relationship. My favorite scents are lychee+lapsang (feminine) and absinthe+sugarwater (gender-neutral). A massage candle can get a conversation flowing about how outside products can enhance your sex life.

If you want to open the door to insertables:



Lelo's Ella is non-phallic but very sexy in its own right, it's slender so as to not intimidate anyone, and the results are almost guaranteed to help your partner see how much joy a toy can bring.

For something that won't take time away from PIV sex, but you still want vibration:


Lelo's Bo cock ring looks classy yet should fit anyone, and it can be used as a clit vibe if the lady decides she likes it. (disclaimer, I haven't used this.)

I LOVE THIS! The Motion would probably scare the crap out of me, but the width and slickness of the material are about right for a beginner!

I put together a kit like this for my friend who's never owned a toy or really had much penetration at all. I tried to include a lot of different things because neither of us have any idea what will fit her body or what she'll like! Because of this all toys are under $40;

The Bgood Deluxe- I got this in the mail and I LOVE it! It has nice, deep vibrations and it has several different patterns for her to try out. It has no real curve, but is still good for g-spot play. ( link )

The Seduction by Evolved- A bit thicker, but my personal favorite toy. The thicker end is wonderful for g-spot play and it is very easy to use. (link )

The Waterwhirl- Super easy to use, and intuitive. Won't cause hand cramping or numbing, more for broad stimulation ( link )

Diamond Princess- For more intense, focused vibrations but still easy to hold. Slight vibration control issues, but great for teasing ( link )

Iconic Bullet- The only vibrating toy I haven't personally used, this has awesome reviews. For strong and super pinpoint power, this is what most women love. Portable and small, this is a great place to start (link )

Birthstones- This is great for both clitoral use or for thrusting, a great warm-up toy if you aren't used to insertion. High quality and powerful, this is a great in-between toy. ( link )

Ella- I've never used Ella, but even if I had I would be taking a gambol on it fitting my friends anatomy. Silicone and a bit flexible, Ella is pretty and petite enough for some more spot-on g-spot play. ( link )

Icicles No. 8- This is a small toy, great for those who aren't used to penetration, but is a great introduction to glass. The gorgeous design and small price tag make this a great addition to the set. ( link )

Pink Water- While I've never personally used this lube, it has awesome reviews. I am going a lot for presentation with this set and I feel like this will look a lot better than what I usually use (Colt Slick.) (link)

This set is meant as something that she can also grow into; she doesn't have to like or want to use all of these toys at first. They're also all very good materials and some (The Birthstones, Seduction, Iconic Bullet, and Ella) have guarantees.

I'll let you know what she thinks when she gets it!
