Hot pink! Lime Green! Named after something sweet! Covered in swirls of bumps like little dots of frosting! Visually, this vibe is definitely the opposite of the winter day I took it out of its box.

The Cotton Kandy is an adjustable speed hard plastic vibrator with a wrap of 100% body friendly silicone that's textured with rows of raised dots, each with an antennae-like tip extending out. Think very friendly sea anemone... The tips were a delicious tickle on my labia, although a very light sensation, lost when the vibe is applied with any pressure. The silicone wrapper and hard plastic middle means the vibe has no unpleasant odor, but it also means the toy doesn't have the give and flex of other toys labeled "silicone."

Toys that are 100% silicone can usually be easily cleaned and shared safely, because the silicone is non-absorbing. I recommend being very careful about sharing this vibe, though, because the surface texture makes it hard to clean thoroughly. You could use a condom, of course, but that would defeat the purpose of those little vibrating tips. The vibe is water-proof, which certainly helps with clean-up in addition to its shower/bath/pool capabilities. And always remember that silicone toys must only be used with water-based lubes!

The vibe speed adjusts by twisting the cap, from a light tickle to a fairly strong buzz. It is quite loud at its higher speeds, so be forewarned if you are not in the house alone!

This is also a substantial vibe, larger than it seems in its pictures. The diameter is close to 1 ¾ inches, and 8 ½ inches overall length. If this is your first vibe then:
1. yeah for you!
2. the diameter is about the size of four fingers held closely together, or four fingers and a thumb, if you have small fingers.

If that seems large to you, Eden has a wide selection of smaller vibes to explore.

While the vibe action of this toy is great, the fact that the surface can't be fully cleaned has definitely diminished its appeal. Some toys are designed for use and visual appeal, and some only for show. The Cotton Kandy is definitely the latter.
