Eden Toys Passion beads is a great introduction item into anal play. With a classic look, the anal beads are non-intimidating to those who have never used beads before and have a great size as well. The beads can be used for solo play or by couples who wish to incorporate anal play into their sexual experience. The beads can be used in the bedroom, shower, tub or anywhere you wish and are designed with an easy grip handle making them completely anal safe. As an alternative, the beads could also be used vaginally if the user wishes.

Traveling with these beads can be done, as they fold and flex easily, fitting into small spaces. However, if the user is easily embarrassed, they may wish to leave these beads home, as they aren't discreet in any capacity, and should TSA check your bag they're going to know you've brought along a sex toy.

The Passion anal beads are made from body-safe silicone. Silicone rates a 10/10 on the Eden safety scale for being non-porous, hypoallergenic, latex and phthalate-free. People with sensitivities to tastes or smells will enjoy these beads as they have neither and will not cause any allergic reactions. This particular silicone is velvety in feeling, flexible in nature, but firm when squished. The silicone's flexibility allows the toy to be wrapped up in a ball easily and springs back into the original form once let go.

The silicone is completely smooth and doesn't have any texture, so beginners who are intimidated by a lot of texture won't have to worry with this toy. The toy itself isn't shaped realistically, so the material doesn't add to any realism or realistic feel.

These beads are a superior take on a classic toy. It is designed to look like a string of beads, but the entire toy is made from silicone, making it completely body-safe. On the end there is an easy to grip handle made of two loops that two fingers can hook through to retrieve the toy when in use. The size of the beads range from small to medium but are a great fit for beginners and advanced users alike. The overall size of the toy is 13-1/2 inches in length with a 12-inch insertable length. The largest circumference of the final bead is about 3 inches. There are 10 beads in total on the 'string' of the toy.



These beads can easily be hidden but don't make the mistake of leaving these beads out in the open as they can be easily recognized for what they are and are used for. While not as obvious as a dildo or other realistically-shaped object, these beads could not be mistaken for anything other than a sex toy. Along the middle of these beads, there is a light seam, but this seam cannot be felt during the use.

The toy is meant for internal stimulation and does this well, both anally and vaginally. It provides a different feeling to that of a dildo or plug and is meant more for the sensation than thrusting. The balls on the 'string' make this toy unique in that when pulled/tugged outward, the balls create a 'popping' sensation, and when pushed inside feel as though the toy is ribbed. This stimulates the walls, caressing them when manipulated, and provides a full feeling when inserted. The flexibility of the toy makes it comfortable enough to move around while the beads are inserted and doesn't hinder movements in any way.

The beads can be difficult to insert at first due to the amount of flexibility, but it becomes easier the more you use them. When the beads are lubricated the material becomes very slippery, and while this helps slide the beads in easier, it also makes them harder to grasp hold of. While inserted, you can move around freely without worry of the toy slipping out, and you may be able to wear these under clothing; however, they are not comfortable in a seated position.

Silicone is extremely easy to care for and to store. To clean the anal beads you can wash them in hot, soapy water, put them in the top rack of your dishwasher (without detergent), boil them for up to three minutes, bleach with a 5% bleach solution (95% water), or simply wipe them down with toy wipes or a toy cleaner. Boiling, bleaching or placing them in the top rack of your dishwasher should not only thoroughly clean the beads but sterilize them as well. If there are any leftover residues, simply wash the toy again, making sure to get in between the beads themselves. Silicone toys should be boiled at least once or twice a month as a safety precaution. Always wash your toys before and after use to remove any debris that is on them, whether dust, dirt, fur, or fluids. This particular silicone is a lint and dust magnet.

Anal toys have a tendency to hold onto lingering scents. Boiling and bleaching may get rid of any unwanted scents, but you can also leave your toy out in the sunlight for a few hours, or you can store the toy with a sachet of natural potpourri such as vanilla or coffee beans. These methods should help neutralize any odors. Good old fashioned airing out may also help get rid of any unwanted smells by leaving the toy in a well-ventilated area. To try and avoid odor altogether, using a douche before anal use of the toy as this may help.

You may store your toy with other silicone toys, but keep separate from jelly, TPR, TPE, rubber, PVC, or Cyberskin varieties. If you suspect a toy is not pure silicone, do not store them together. Keep your toys in separate organza or Ziploc bags if you're worried about them reacting to one another. It is better to be safe than sorry for the life of your toys. As with all silicone, use only water-based lubricants when playing, as silicone lubricants may melt or disfigure your toy.

All contents were shipped discreetly in a plain, unmarked cardboard box. There were not any labels or other stickers verifying that there was an adult toy packed inside. The shipping address was the only thing provided on the box, and there was no way of telling what could be inside. If one were curious, they could google the address from the sender, but otherwise, you wouldn't know that this box was shipped from an adult toy shop. Users can feel confident that their package will arrive securely.

Inside of the box, the toy is packed under air pillows to reduce the movement of the toy while shipping. This keeps your toy from bumping around during transit and to make sure all contents arrive unharmed. The packing slip with the information on returns and exchanges was packed on the top of the air pillows. As you open the box, you will find your slip.



The toy itself was minimally packaged, as it only came inside of a cellophane bag. There weren't any instructions on care or use, but none are required with this type of toy, as it's all pretty straightforward. All shipping contents can be recycled as they are very minimal. On the cellophane bag there was a sticker with the serial number for stocking purposes. If gifting this item, it's recommended to use a gift box or bag to put the toy in. Let whomever you're gifting the toy know that it is an adult item if they are easily embarrassed.

These are a great tease for both women and men alike. Imagine, pulling these beads slowly from your partner anally while giving your husband/boyfriend a blowjob, or pulling them from your girlfriend/wife whilst penetrating her vaginally from behind. The sensations these beads create provides a unique alternative to the thrusting of a dildo. My girlfriend thoroughly enjoyed each pop of a bead from her, and according to her, feels delicious both vaginally or anally. Remember to never use these vaginally straight from anal, and thoroughly wash them before doing so.

My own experience with these anally yielded orgasmic results. The feel of the beads filling you up and then slowly popping each graduating bead from you causes toe-curling sensations.
