The Screaming O Studio Collection Vibrating Lipstick is very discreet and chic, perfect for an evening out. Looking like a regular tube of lipstick this is great for foreplay or solo play in public or in private. The tip is made of soft, flexible silicone and is 1 3/4" long. It's just the thing to tease and please when you're out on that sexy date night.

The vibrator is made out of hard plastic and silicone. The tip, or the lipstick, is made from soft silicone and the tube of the lipstick is made from hard plastic. The silicone tip on the vibrator is very soft and glides easily over the skin. It is made from food-grade materials, is hypo-allergenic, latex free, non-porous and Phthalates free.

Discreet is the key word for this vibrator, it looks exactly like a tube of lipstick. As a guy I would never really be able to tell the difference between a normal tube of lipstick and this vibrator if my wife just held both up in front of me. There are of course some differences, namely the vibrator is bigger than a typical tube of lipstick. There is also the company name on the tube, and "Screaming O" as well that does give away the product somewhat.

I like the black and red color scheme as well. I've joked with my wife that she needs a shade of actual lipstick that matches the shade of the lipstick on the vibrator. The black on the plastic casing is demure and discreet so that it probably wouldn't be noticed if someone went through your purse looking for something.

The actual vibrator has an angled silicone tip. This tip is very flexible and can be pressed into the skin for a deeper feeling of vibration. The plastic tube is also very easy to hold and not uncomfortable for use in different situations and positions. The top of the tube was also easy to take on and off, while the base of the tube is where you turn the vibrations on, and can be pressed accidentally while in a purse.

The dimensions for the vibrator are as follows:

Length: 3 3/4"
Circumference: 1 3/4"
Diameter: 1/4"
Weight: 0.2 lb

It is also waterproof, so you can use it in the shower. We did not try to submerge this toy, so I can't say if it would be good underwater, but it held up well in shower tests.

Like I said in the previous section, the controls for the vibrator are at the base of the lipstick tube. You simply press the button once to turn it on and then you cycle through the vibration levels, of which there are four, and then pressing the button a fifth time turns the vibrations off. If you need to turn the power off quickly, this can be annoying, but the button is very responsive and you can cycle through rather quickly.

The four vibration patterns are:
1. Constant vibration, low.
2. Constant vibration, medium.
3. Constant vibration, high.
4. Pulsing vibrations. (Referred to as "Multi-Pulse Tease Mode" on packaging.)

The vibrator runs on 3 watch batteries, which are included (plus 3 extras) and I was surprised at the amount of power there was with watch batteries. My wife enjoys strong vibrations and toys that usually tend to use watch batteries aren't strong enough for her, but with this toy she was pleased with the power. Overall I would give the power of this toy 3 Vrooms out of 5 on the Vroom scale. Each level of vibration was different, some toys indicate different levels and they feel the same to us. Not with this vibrator, each level of vibration has a distinct difference from the others. We have found that the the highest level of vibration and the pulse mode to be my wife's favorite.

The only real problem that we have with this toy is the volume level. For a discreet vibrator, this is a little louder than we'd like for it to be. I know that when you have more power the noise level is going to increase, but this is noticeable. We have tried to use this toy in several places and found that places with a higher ambient noise level were best suited for use. In a nightclub no one could hear the sound, but if we were to try and use this at dinner it would be noticeable to people at surrounding tables. We use this in the car quite a bit, with my wife in the passenger seat and I can hear a distinct buzzing while in the driver's seat. I give this 3 out of 5 on the Bee scale.

This is a very easy item to care for. With it being waterproof it would be easy to clean this with soap and warm/hot water. You can also use a toy cleaner or anti-bacterial wipes with no problems. Since this has a motor, it cannot be placed in the dishwasher or boiled to disinfect.

Since the tip is made from silicone do not use silicone-based lubricants with this toy. Only water-based lubricants should be used or else you could degrade the silicone on the vibrator.

Storage is very easy, especially since this is so small and discreet. We store this in a small box on my wife's dresser, you could also store this in a toy drawer, or in its original packaging if you chose to do so.

The vibrator arrived in black packaging, and wasn't terribly discreet. The company name and product name are at the top of the package, with clear plastic showing the actual vibrator through the packaging. Beside the vibrator is the phrase "Chic and Discreet Lipstick Vibe" which is in no way discreet at all. The back of the packaging has a description of the product, and also has a breakdown of the levels of vibration included.

Once you open the packaging a clear plastic tray slides out holding the vibrator, the cover and three replacement watch batteries. The plastic tray has a clam shell type opening and you can place the vibrator back in the plastic for storage if you would care to store it that way.

This could be given as a gift, but only to a good friend. Giving this gift at a large gathering might be a little uncomfortable, but overall the packaging is well done.

We like this vibrator a lot. It has good solid power, is easy to navigate and is great when used in conjunction with other toys as well. My wife has put this in her purse several times when we are going out for a date night and enjoyed it both for achieving orgasm and for foreplay when we are out. We're both a little shy and so have only used this in public once, in a nightclub. Otherwise we use this in the car or at home and have enjoyed it a lot.

The only thing keeping this from being a 5 star toy is the volume on the vibrator. If it was even at 2 Bees out of 5 I think we'd both be more comfortable with using it in different settings. But overall a great toy to have.
