This phthalate free penis sleeve came with pink and white beads. It's smell reminds me of superglue, but its a faint smell that I only noticed initially. The material is slightly sticky and very stretchy.

I tried it on the Hawaiian Dreams dong first. I thought that covering the irritating decorations on it with something that brings extra pleasure would be a win win. The first time I tried this it didn't feel good. I could feel the hard beads too much. My second experience trying this was more successful. The beads felt good. I'm not sure, but I believe the positioning of the beads makes a difference. But the sleeve kept slipping down. I kept my hand firmly between the sleeve and the base to try, futilely, to prevent it from slipping further, but then the sleeve scrunched up.

Next I tried it on Mr Softee, thinking that with a rubber dildo there would be less slippage, but I had the same problem. I didn't lubricate the sleeve on the inside. Possibly the lubrication seeps under it during use. It does feel good this way, but its fighting a losing battle to keep it from sliding down.

Putting it on is a challenge. It works best to insert two fingers from each hand and gently expand it, keeping your fingers where the rows of beads are so they don't slip out of their pouches. Then slip it on. I managed to punch a small hole in it between one of the beads and the rim during one of my first attempts to use the sleeve. How did that happen? I was being careful. It requires considerable adjustment just to put it on.

Washing it is another challenge. I found it difficult to get the beads out without them flying out in search of their own adventures down the drain or in the cat box. I found it was best to put the drain plug in, then slowly remove the beads and wash them separately to make sure I don't lose any more. I happen to have beads that are exactly the same size so my sleeve still is complete. 8mm beads are what to look for if you need replacements.

I tried this sleeve with my man too. It was more difficult to put it on him than on a dildo. Penis skin moves and I was afraid of hurting him. Then we applied plenty of lube and carefully in he went. But we weren't feeling the sensations I expected. The darn sleeve had scrunched up at the base of his cock. It rebels against going inside me. And one of the bead pouches split open and a bead fell out. We never found the bead. His only comment about it was "How much did you pay for that?"

I would like to delude myself that it’s my powerfully strong pelvic floor muscles clamping down that prevented the sleeve from entering, but I just don't think that's the case.
