What to do...

Ideas for Sweet Lola:
1. Vaginal (G-spot) use
2. Anal use
2a. Anal (prostate) play!
3. Couples
4. Temperature play

The Sweet Lola is a very versatile glass toy, especially for its price point. Both male and female-bodied people can use it with great results. The bulbed head makes it ideal for G-spotting (my favorite!) while the handle makes it totally anal safe -- certainly the head could also reach a P-spot pretty well. The handle is wonderfully grippable, even with slick hands, which makes Lola great for partner play. Speaking of which, the fact that it's totally sterilizable, non-porous glass means that Lola can be shared safely! Glass is also great for temperature play, though I personally love the already cool touch it usually has.

The Shape and Design




Lola measures:
Total length: 8"
Bulb and shaft length: 5.5"
Bulb width: 1.5"
Shaft width: 1"



I love the big head of the Lola. If you're normally slow to warm up to size, like I am, the fact that Lola is glass is a big help because one drop of lube goes a long way. Once inside, the smooth shaft is great for gentle movement, and the slight angle of the head presses against my G-spot in a perfectly delicious way! Other glass toys I've tried have curves that prevent comfortable thrusting.



The handle -- the circular handle is perfectly solid and feels just right to loop two fingers through. It's well-suited to use while thrusting it into a partner or for holding it at an angle for self-pleasure.


The shaft is totally smooth: no ridges, waves or nubs for texture play. Some might think that it's uninspired or vanilla, but I say it's good to have every flavor for whenever the mood strikes you. The reasonable price point makes Lola more than a good candidate, it's a deal.

One thing I will say -- the purple color looks so unique when it's against a stark white background, like in stock photos, but actually it's really lackluster in person. Compared to the 'true' colors of silicone toys, the translucency of the Lola really makes a difference in its actual color. Lola's almost more of a tepid pink than lavender/purple and I'm certain that cobalt blue is the better color to pick. Just in case it's a big deal to you!


Clear as Glass: Care and Maintenance

Lola was my first introduction to borosilicate glass dildos. Borosilicate glass is the same kind of glass used in scientific glassware and high-quality bakeware. Borosilicate glass differs from regular glass in that it's combined with boric oxide which adds thermal stress resistance to the material. Additionally, if something happens to this kind of glass, it will snap and break into large chunks, rather than shattering. Things to avoid doing to your glass dildo still include dropping it, but also uneven or sudden heating or cooling. Keep in mind that letting Lola rattle around with other glass toys can result in nicks, chips or scratches since they are of the same hard material.

The great thing about glass is that you could use any kind of lube you desire, water, oil or silicone based.
Even better, and this goes for most all glass toys...Care of glass is so simple. Compared to some of the anxieties I have about some TPR or other plastic toys, glass is such a breath of fresh air and the Lola is no exception. Glass is completely non-porous and the options for sterilizing it are many: boiling, bleaching, top rack of the dishwasher, toy wipes, soap and water, etc.

A glass toy, since it has no movable parts or motors and is resistant to humidity, sunlight and oxidation, will probably last longer than any other toy in your collection. Gosh I'm happy I got mine!

The Packaging



Like all SSA glass toys, Lola comes only with a velvet-like, red, drawstring bag. It's shipped wrapped in this bag and also wrapped in a square of bubble wrap. This isn't the most amazing presentation, but I think it's perfectly acceptable for a non-vibrating toy (i.e., doesn't need to keep any accessories together). I use the bag to protect and store the Lola, and in fact, I kept the bubble wrap too.

I'm so excited to say that this toy has risen to be one of my favorites. I keep coming back to it! It can find my G-spot unerringly and I always use it when I like a guaranteed, easy, quick orgasm.

Now, if they wanted to make it in a bigger size, or the exact same model but with texture, that would be something...
