~Introduction

GAH! I'm just too tender for this kind of play!! I love having my nipples played with, don't get me wrong. I can usually get off on just that kind of stimulation. WHICH makes me incredibly biased in this review. I understand that there's a lot of people out there who love having their nipple's pinched, pulled, slapped around, and clamped down but I am entirely too soft for this kind of play. I do love getting spanked, my hair pulled, and any number of other degrading things, but to me, this is too much. I'm so sensitive, it only feels like pain.

However, this is still a cheap, economic solution for me to find out that I don't like that kind of action. I was very pleased with the toy overal, the materials are safe and they are very nonthreatening and cute little suckers. I can easily regift these to another friend, or safe them for a time when it does not hurt as much to pinch myself in such a tender place. They are so very cute and lovely, even I, who just now realizes how much I am currently opposed to nipple pinching and clamps, will keep them around for a very long time to come because they are still perfectly fine.

~Materials

The plastic for this toy, PVC, apparently ranks a 2 on the safety scale at Eden. I am not quite sure why they are ranked so low, as it does not mention it being a porous or having harmful impacts on your body. I am going to assume that, because they are only meant for external use (a reviewer did comment that one could use this on a clitoris, however, the toy is rather large for that kind of play), that, as long as you keep it clean, there should be no real problem.

Overal, the suckers feel slick, slightly soft to the touch, and very flexible. They kind of look like miniature versions of the plastic caps that go at the end of foldable metal chairs, or poster tubes. The bulbous end is slightly larger than the circular opening, with a tiny blob of plastic on top, like a tiny cap. The two colors offered, in my opinion, do look a bit silly in use, but eh. They are rather classic sex toy colors, though I wish the company would consider some variation.

~Use

Someone in their review commented that the toys come with a lack of directions. However, I did not truly that as a problem during use. Simply hold down on the bulbous end, the more you hold down the more tightly they will hold, and apply the circular end to wherever you want to pinch. Then, let go. The sucker will stick right on, no problem. That does give this toy a great amount of variation-- you can make them relatively loose, or go for a real tight squeeze, depending on what you're looking for.

These do stay in place. Pinch them on and pull at them, it will take quite a bit of yanking if you really get these little guys on tight enough. This was a rather disturbing aspect towards me, because I placed one on really tight and then I REALLY wanted to get it off, and it took a rather hard pull to remove it-- at least, a pull hard enough that it ended up hurting even more. But, if you like nipple play, then here is my terrified endorsement-- you will like it. It's not as extreme as a metal clamp, but these are determined little suckers.

Again, I did not have a very good time. This was the preverbal Everclear in the punch bowl at an already bad picnic. The evening was going fine when I pulled these out. My partner and I were trying out a few more of my new toys, and I suppose I was in already over my head. And then, ouch ouch, darn it, owwwww! He yanked it off, asked me if I was okay, and then I went about putting the rest of the toys away, and instead, we spooned our way to orgasm.

It was an interesting experience, and I'm glad I tried, but I don't really want to face the music again for a while.
