Glass? Colour? Texture? G-spot curve? How could I resist? I really couldn't.

Take care to start slow with this toy, as the glass is unforgiving and a thrust too strong can cause sharp pain or even bruising. I honestly can't think of an area I'd prefer injury to less than my vagina, and I don't have a lot of experience with textured glass just yet, so I was especially careful the first few minutes. It didn't take me long to find a good rhythm. With the advanced texture and the heavy, unwieldy material this is a toy best used slowly, especially with a partner.

I will say that I've been using this toy fairly regularly for about 3 weeks now, and I've never had any soreness afterward.

Glass is great for temperature play; it holds on to warmth and cold very well. I'm not a huge fan of cold, so I skipped that, but I tried running it under hot water and the heat held up well during play.

It is made of 100% borosilicate glass, which rates a 10 on the safety scale. That means it can be shared (if properly sterilized). This product has no smell or taste and doesn't hold on to the smell/tastes of any lubricant you might use after washing.

This is not a realistic toy in any way, which is how I like it.

It's hard to say if this toy is better for beginners or experienced users. I would consider myself to be closer to a beginner for glass products and I really enjoyed it. When it comes to texture it seems like people either love or hate it. If you love texture, you'll probably love this toy (regardless of experience level) and if you don't like texture, this isn't the toy for you. So, I would say that if your a beginner to glass or texture, your body will either love it or hate it, but the only way to know is to experiment.

There is so much to say about the design of this toy. The bubbles stimulate internally in a way that is different from any other textured toy I've tried. It's similar to the design of most anal beads, but larger and meant for vaginal use. Not that you couldn't use this anally, the handle is large enough to be safe, but it's a bit too thick for me to use in that way.

The heart at the end, as well as being adorable, makes a surprisingly easy to use handle.

I wont be traveling with this toy--even with a padded pouch I would be worried about it getting damaged. Also when I'm on vacation I usually go for quick and dirty release, and this toy is better suited for slow and intense.

It is not discrete at all. The person viewing it might be distracted for a second by how cute it is, but they're going to figure it out pretty quickly. For that reason I won't be leaving it out around where someone might see it.

Since every girls anatomy is a bit different it's hard to say if the curve will work for everyone, but I can say it worked well for me. The pressure is steady without being overwhelming.

The bubbles give a very interesting sensation that I warmed up to quickly. I would describe it as a undulating sort of feeling, hard to describe, but very effective.

Because of the bubble design, I find that this toy stays inserted better than most when not being held. Now it's not something you could walk around with it in, but I don't worry about adjusting position or grabbing something when I'm using it.

Because it's glass it is completely waterproof, so if your a bath time lovin' fan, this could be a great addition. Personally, I've always felt bath sex to be overrated. It's cramped, I have to be quick so the water doesn't go cold, I'm worried about my housemate needing the washroom. The water washes away natural lubricant and if your using lube (especially with glass) you have to be careful to not get things too slippery and drop anything. But that's me, I know lots of girls like the sensuality that water can offer.

Glass is one of the easiest materials to clean and care for. Unlike silicone toys, you can use any kind of lube with glass and you don't have to worry about deterioration.

Basically all you have to worry about is breaking it, but this kind of glass is very sturdy and is designed to break in to large pieces instead of shattering. Still, if you notice any cracks or chips it's time for a replacement.

Before I got it I thought it was going to be more difficult to clean that a standard vibe because of the texture. This was something I was more than willing to put up with, but thankfully I was wrong. The bubbles are far enough apart that you can easily wrap a cloth or wipe around it. You can also pop it in the dishwasher, if your so inclined.

The best way to store a glass toy is in a padded pouch. Some glass toys come with a pouch to use, but this one did not. EF does sell sell some for under 10 dollars. I will probably end up grabbing one of those eventually, especially since now that I know how amazing glass products are, I'm looking forward to adding some more to my collection. For now, I'm using the foam insert described in the packaging section.

Icicles 32 comes in a nice white and black box with high quality pictures of the product on each side and a magnetic window that you can open up to view the product.



Inside is a foam insert that the glass dildo fits in. The packaging is sleek, especially with the glossy pictures and the magnetic window, but the cardboard box isn't suitable for long term storage, opening and closing it will tear the flaps. The foam insert however, is perfect, the piece fits in snug and the foam is firm and durable. It's not the prettiest option, but certainly functional.
