The Pink Allure, or should I say Ruby Allure as I have lovingly renamed it, as the swirls and studded bumps at each end to me are a lovey ruby red. However; to keep from being confusing I will just refer to it as the Allure for the rest of the review.

The Allure is a double ended glass dildo made of Pyrex. Each end of the 8" long, 1" thick toy has about 3" dedicated to two different raised glass patterns in the ruby-red color. It also has a slight curve to each end, but not enough that I really noticed it again my g-spot, however it may work for others in that department but because I have other toys I prefer for my g-spot this was not an issue for me. The raised texture on each end made it easy to hold onto no matter which end I seemed to pick. It was very smooth to the touch both in the hands and inside the body, which because you don't want to insert the whole thing you get about 5 inches of insertable length no matter which side you pick. While some have said this toy is fine for anal use I am hesitant to try it because of the lack of a flared base. Because of this I have only tried it vaginally. Because it is made of glass this toy is extremely body safe, non-porous, and phthalates free. You can also play with the temperature of the toy by placing it either in warm or cool water to change its temperature.

The swirl side was the first I tried as it seemed like the one that my body would take the easiest. Even though it looks like a screw, one doesn't have to spin it to get it to simply slide in. Though I did find a twisting motion to be an amazing feeling inside.

The studded side took slightly more getting used to. With 20 of the small bumpy studs that run along the sides but not the top, it too felt great once I got used to it both with a simple in and out motion as well as twisting it inside of me.

Even along the outside parts of the vagina, each textured side was amazing to use though I did prefer the feeling of the studded side against my clit. With the right amount of lube it was a very nice tease before actually using it for any penetration.

The Allure came in a simple velvet like pouch with an almost satin like finish inside for storage. Which I found would be very discreet for travel as it hides the phallic shape of the toy. Though personally I find the toy itself to be so pretty I almost want to leave it on display to just enjoy the look of it.

Care and Cleaning is the best part as Pyrex can hold up to almost anything, so long as you aren't banging it around or dropping it from high distances. You can use it with any type of lube that you want to though I prefered it with a water based lube as I find those to be less sticky. As for cleaning, you can use soap and water or toss it into your dishwasher. Because of its size I would suggest in the basket where the utensil go so that it doesn't fall into the bottom of said dishwater.

Ah... My first glass toy is still a favorite from my toy box right now. With the A/C on in my apartment, it has also become a nice treat to use on my neck when I am a little overheated after coming in from the heat. The nubbed side offers a slightly massaging feeling over the more tense parts of my shoulders and neck. So, it is a nice surprise to find a mundane use for a toy.
