Jenna's Velvet Jewels Royal was my first step into the world of sex toys. I was a naive girl, blushing bright red as I looked through the plethora of choices I had available to me. Needless to say, I was overwhelmed. Then my eyes fell on this jeweled beauty. It was sky blue, had a sleek, elegant look, was accented at the base by multicolored gems, and most importantly, it wasn't intimidating. It seemed just the right size. It was pleasing to the eye and looked so smooth!

Once I got home, I couldn't wait to try it. And oh my goodness...I was in heaven! Up to that point, nothing had ever felt that good.

As time went on, I bought other toys, but this gem always had a place in my drawer.

It's great for beginners, but can be enjoyed by all. It's very smooth to the touch - almost "velvety"! This smoothness reduces the need for lubrication, but if needed, the nonporous, plastic surface enables you to use whatever lube you desire. Furthermore, the smooth, waterproof design makes for an easy cleanup as well. On a side note, the vibrator's nonporous plastic is hypoallergenic, latex-free, phthalate-free, and is a food-grade material. These qualities, along with its gentle curves, makes this toy an enjoyable addition to anal play as well.

The overall shape of the vibrator is excellent in design, especially for beginners. The rounded tip starts out small and smoothly expands to its full girth (in the perfect location to rub up against your G-spot). The neck then tapers back down towards the jeweled base. Essentially, it is a stylish, elegant, and curvaceous toy, designed to meet your needs.

I found the toy practical in design and easy to use. Its dial control allows you to effortlessly tune into your perfect vibration level - simply rotate the dial clockwise to increase the vibration and counterclockwise to decrease. That being said, because of this easy-to-use design, it is feasible to leave it on unnoticed, thus slowly eating away at the battery life. Hence, I suggest taking the batteries out between uses. Luckily, the batteries are easily accessible and simple to replace; just grasp the base by the gems and twist, the cap will pop off and the batteries can be removed. As for noise, on the lower settings, the toy is not noticeable to anyone but yourself, and/or your partner. However, at its highest setting, it does generate some noise, but is still not overly loud. In my experience, as long as you have a wall between you and the rest of the world, then this is a discreet toy. In regards to the strength of the vibrator, I was impressed by its performance. For how "wallet friendly" it is, it packs quite a punch at its highest setting. Lastly, I am pleasantly surprised by its durability; I have had it for over a year and it is still going strong. Honestly, I thought that at least a rhinestone would fall out at some point, but they never did.

The smooth, nonporous surface makes cleanup quick and easy, just use some soap and warm water! The only suggestion I would have is, that every so often, use a toothbrush or something similar to gently clean the rhinestones - this will ensure they keep their lovely sparkle. Happily, because of its smooth plastic surface, this toy does not attract pet fur, dust, "fuzzies", and so on. This feature helps in keeping it clean and makes storing it much easier. As for lubrication, if it is needed, the plastic material used in making this toy allows you to use whatever lube you desire: water-based, silicone-based, etc.

It knocked my naive, innocent little socks off.
