Amazing as a clitoral vibrator, the Mystic Wand also feels lovely on vaginal lips, perineum, anus, or pressed up against a non-vibrating insertable toy (made of silicone or metal, both of which conduct vibrations).

After (or before) you've had your way with this toy, the wand also makes a great massager for other body parts. Use it to soothe tight and sore muscles anywhere on the body. The handle makes it easy to reach places like your back and neck without being a contortionist.

The Mystic Wand has a soft, velvety texture on both the head and handle that is pleasant to the touch. The top of the head is smooth and broad (about 1-1/2" across). The sides of the head are ridged. It is coated with silicone on the outside, but is plastic on the inside. This means that the toy is rigid, except for its flexible neck. The neck attaches the head to the handle. Having this moving part makes it easier to experiment and move the toy around to suit your whims.

There are arching contours carved into the handle, making it easy to press control buttons and adding tactile interest. They're shaped like the stylized lips of a woman's conch, but as a whole the handle is phallic. Very interesting...

You can watch the lights change colour while flipping through different settings, and the simple design of the buttons makes this toy a no-brainer to operate. There is a second, larger light that is pink and turns on when the toy is on, or flashes when the toy is charging.

Looking at the little photograph of this toy, I wasn't totally sold. I decided to purchase it because I heard so many good things about it. And I have to say, the Mystic Wand has a design that I have come to appreciate MORE after playing with it. It's elegant and it does the job really well.

According to sexual revolutionary Betty Dodson, the Mysic Wand reaches a strength similar to infamously powerful Hitachi Magic Wand (video). It ranges from deep and rumbly vibrations to powerful and strong ones. Sometimes I can feel the vibrations (lightly) all the way down to my feet! That being said, the vibes are not as strong in the handle of the Mystic Wand, so hands and fingers don't go numb or feel over-stimulated as with some bullet vibes. And the variable settings and levels provide a range of sensations from gentle to climactic.

The controls are very easy to use. There are elegant contours carved into the body of the handle that make it easy to locate the buttons. There are two buttons and one indicator light. One button switches it instantly on or off, while the other cycles through the 6 different vibration patterns. The light changes colour according to the strength of vibration (low-medium-high), or it flashes along with the different patterns. The first pattern jumps from low to high, low to high... Then, the next patter goes zzt--zzt--ZZZZt--zzt--zzt--ZZZZT, every third buzz is longer and stronger than the first two, with brief stops in between. Finally there's an escalating pattern that has a fun light show to watch as the vibe cycles from low to high, showing all three colours. If you press the 'next' button again, the cycle starts from the beginning.

So far I am really satisfied with how long the charge lasts in this toy. I've been playing with it to my heart's content (maybe an hour per day), then charging it every couple days, and it's been holding its charge well. Hopefully it's OK to recharge it without completely draining the battery. There are no specific instructions that came with this toy, so we'll have to wait and see...

As for noise levels, this vibe can be very quiet. However, I find that it sometimes gets louder depending on how I'm holding it. I guess there's some component inside that can rattle against itself sometimes.

Wipe down the toy with a cloth soaked in warm water after each use. Don't submerge it completely as it is not waterproof and has electrical components. Make sure the tab for the recharge plug is firmly closed so you don't get any water in there.

This product has a silicone coating over a plastic inner shell. As such you may wipe it down with a 10% bleach solution to disinfect.

The Mystic Wand comes with a white fabric pouch for storage. It's handy and keeps the dust from collecting (not that there's been a chance). I found it interesting to read about how Vibratex was the original purvayor Rabbit vibrators, and how they have been importing sex toys from Japan for decades. However, there were no specific instructions about the Mystic Wand in the packaging.

Comes in a thin clear plastic folded box with some basic text printed on it (name of vibe, company, and "for novelty use").

I've never taken a sex toy home, whether it be from a brick and mortar shop or online, and immediately played with it to the point of orgasm so many times as I did with the Mystic Wand. I think part of it was waiting for it to fully charge. It was tantalizing. I kept peeking into my bedroom to see if the flashing "charging" light had turned off to indicate that it was ready. This process probably took about an hour and a half.

This is my first vibrator with a handle (i.e. not bullet-style). I discovered that I really like having this phallic object in my hand while I'm masturbating with such a good toy. It's been a long-standing fantasy of mine to have a penis, and this toy is really satisfying in this regard.
