From Evolved is this fun vibrator with wonderful ripples and bulges. It's pleasing to the eye and fun for the nether regions.

It is designed for vaginal use, but can also be used externally. It's great for solo sessions and playtime with a partner. It's completely waterproof and makes a great bath toy. Like all vibrators, it can be enjoyed on any erogenous zone such as nipples, neck, and inner thighs. Anywhere that feels good is fair game... except for anal. This toy does not have a flared base and should not be used anally. Doing so risks a trip to the Emergency Room.

It could be used by beginners as well as experienced toy users. However the rigid material and rippled texture might not be best for newbies. Hard materials like plastic feel bigger than what they actually are and the combined texture might be too much for some. However, it is a quality toy with lots of power. It's not likely to fall apart or stop working after a couple of uses.

Bliss consists of plastic which rates an 8/10 on Eden's safety scale. Plastic is nonporous and phthalate free. It is easy to clean. I feel perfectly safe using plastic on my hooha.

Plastic is a hard rigid material without any flexibility or give. Rigid materials are capable of giving amazing pressure, but they could also bruise. Be aware of the force you use with any rigid materials. Besides being rigid, the plastic is very smooth. It has some sort of coating because it feels somewhat velvety.

This design offers 3 ripples at the top and then several inches of straight shaft. The texture is noticable going in and with thrusting. Some texture is too subtle to be felt, but this is discernable. I find it very pleasurable, but I do prefer hard materials.

Some women may be interested in the shape, but not in the hard plastic. Evolved also sells a similar shape but in silicone. It is the Fleur De Lis Bliss. I don't own this particular vibe, but I do have a couple in the Fleur De Lis line. The silicone used is flexible and pliable. If you want the ripples but in a kinder, gentler vibrator, check that out.

I consider Bliss to be a medium size vibrator but on the small end of that designation. It is 7.5 inches long with 6 inches of that insertable. At its widest point it is 4.5 inches around. Keep in mind that the hardness of the material makes it feel even bigger. If 4.5 is your absolute widest girth desired, you may not like this. It's likely to feel more like 5 inches.

The three ripples are of slightly increasing size. The smallest one is at the top. It's small enough that insertion shouldn't be a problem. It's more bulbous than tapered, but I think the size is nice for easy insertion. Any type of lube, water based, silicone, or oil based may be used with it if needed. Under the head sit the next two ripples in ever increasing size. It's an interesting design that gives moderate texture.

My toy is lavender with the base a contrasting darker purple, but the toy is also available in pink. I don't think this is a very discreet toy. It's not phallic shaped or realistic, but most people would figure out it's a vibrator. It's probably best hidden away. It is small enough to travel. Be sure to take the batteries out when traveling so that it doesn't accidentally turn on.

Bliss offers nice strong power. It has 3 intensity levels- low, medium, and high. It does not have any pulsating options. If that's what you're craving, you best look elsewhere. I would rate the highest setting at 4/5 for intensity level. Even the low setting is capable of giving delicious vibrations. The vibrations are deep and rumbly and just lovely. They are quiet as well. They can be heard in the room, but no one outside the door will know what you're up to.

A simple button on the bottom of the vibe controls the functions. Simply push it to turn it on and continue pushing until you are at your desired setting. It does shut off when pushing the button at the highest setting. If you want to return to a lower level you have to turn it off and then back again.

It runs on 2 AA batteries. The dark purple cap unscrews revealing the battery compartment. It has an O ring protecting the motor and batteries from water.

Care for Bliss is easy-peasy. Wash with antibacterial soap & water, a toy cleaner, or a 10% bleach solution. There aren't any hidden crevices to be cautious about. It's just a quick clean up job. You don't even have to worry about getting the batteries wet since it is waterproof.

As mentioned above, any type of lube is acceptable with this toy. Also plastic doesn't react with other materials so there aren't any special storage instructions. It's really a low maintenance type of toy.

Like many of Evolved products, Bliss comes with its own amazing metal storage case. It's a rectangular tin with a specially designed inset for bliss to relax on. The lid is plastic & tin and snaps onto the bottom at each end. The top has a transparent plastic cutout that showcases bliss. It's a wonderful long term storage case. It's rectangular so fits easily on a shelf or in a drawer. How fabulous is that?

I love rigid toys that can give lots of pressure, so I love Bliss. I like using it vaginally. The texture feels especially nice for me while gently thrusting. I don't like to get to carried away because it could bruise. It does not hit my G-spot but I do enjoy the deep rumbles. I love to use it externally. I like strong pressure on my entire vulva area. Rigid plastic is great for that. I would be happy if it was just a tad bit bigger, but it does work well for me.
