FIRST IMPRESSIONS:

I have always loved how realistic feeling Cyberskin is but have been wanting to broaden my range. So when I saw Fabio My Perfect Cock made from yet another skin like substance, I couldn't wait to test him out. The realistic shape with the slight curve in the shaft had my g-spot eager for a workout.


MATERIAL ~ ODOR:

Fabio is molded using TPR (Thermoplastic rubber) for California Exotics and produced in USA. Although it isn't as porous as the typical real skin feeling toys, it is more porous than silicone and scores a rating of 7 on the safety scale. It's hypo-allergenic, phthalate and latex free. Because this is somewhat porous, I highly recommend using a condom – particularly if you're not fluid bonded with your playmate or when using this one anally. The last thing you want is bacteria being absorbed and breeding in the material. Skin like dildos can tend to be thirsty when it comes to natural lubrication so some may require the help from a water based or silicone lube. Fabio has a strong play Dough odor but it doesn't carry a toxic obnoxious smell which I'm greatly thankful for.


COLORING ~ TEXTURE:

This dildo is more of a peach flesh color than shown in the picture. The head is a couple of shades darker than the shaft and balls. A lot of this coloring will come off with the first wash and fades some with time but there is still a slight difference to skin tone.

Fabio is dense and firm enough to enter either orifice but still very pliable to work with the shape of your anatomy. He has very lightly raised veins on a smooth skin feel shaft. There is some drag on the skin which requires lube or a reasonable amount of natural lubricant. The balls have a number of raised bumps to resemble a natural scrotum texture.


SHAPE:

Fabio is the typical realistic penis shape with a slight curve near the head, which helps with g-spot stimulation. The testicles (more like a uni-testicle) are attached to a solid suction cap base. This suction cap has a very shallow indent in the middle which causes it to be useless for hands free riding – it just refuses to stick to any surface. But works for those wishing to attach it to a harness and also for grip during thrusting. Due to his reasonably large size of 6.5” insertable length, 6” in circumference and 1lb in weight, this one does require a fair amount of work up.


CLEANING ~ STORAGE ~ PACKAGING:

This toy should be washed before and after every usage using an antibacterial soap or toy cleaner. Personally I don't feel wipes (even antibacterial ones) are quite enough for cleaning a porous dildo. TPR can not be sterilized by boiling. I'm yet to ruin a good toy and pot by trying, but I'm guessing one would be left with a melted mess. Once Fabio is thoroughly washed, I allow him to dry fully in a protected location where he isn't so likely to attract lint. It doesn't collect lint and hairs as much as silicone does, but given the chance, he will take on the odd piece.

Before packing this dildo away, it should be totally sprinkled with Renew powder or cornstarch to ensure Fabio keeps the soft skin feeling and doesn't become sticky. Never use baby or talcum powders as these have been suspected of causing ovarian cancer. Store this toy on it's own in a bag so as it can not come into contact with others.

Fabio arrived in a reasonably large cardboard box featuring a half naked guy and the dildo on the front. This one is definitely not discreet in any way. On the back is an actual size picture of the toy along with some basic information. Inside the box is a tiny bottle of maintenance powder and Fabio in a soft clear plastic bag.
I have kept the plastic bag for storing my toy but did away with the large box.


USE:

This toy is great for those size queens out there who are looking for something realistic to touch all the sides. I wouldn't recommend this one to beginners at all due to the size. And unless you're after a dildo that is very realistic, this one could be a little intimidating.

I do recommend this as an anal toy for anyone who is adventurous enough to give it a shot. I have personally used mine for anal play! I have only used this for solo play but it could be introduced into couple play once things are well worked up or have some fun using this in a harness.

I love my skin feeling dildos. I have recently added silicone toys to my collection but my preferred choice is still the ones that closely resemble a real human penis. I have enjoyed using Fabio orally, vaginally and anally with great satisfying pleasure. The only disappointing part about this dildo is the small head, although this doesn't affect the usage too much. I don't know if it's just that I'm use to more prominent size penis heads or that this one is on the rather small side. Mind you, this may be a great thing for some, making it easier to slide in for anal play.

I give Fabio a rating of 4 stars. I would have preferred to only take off .5 a point for the size of the head.

He isn't the best realistic in my collection but he adds variety. He also doesn't seem to require the cornstarch like the cyberskins. It will prolong him but at the same time, he doesn't get sticky so quickly. I do like having a skin feeling dildo that I can reach for and not having to worry about powdering him up.

I could be wrong, but I think the TPR will hold up a little better than cyberskin will.
