Climax Twist Wand Massager laying flat

The Climax Twist 7X Massager is a unique massager that bends two ways and is sold by Our Naughty Secrets. This massager is a foot long, and it has a diameter of about two inches in most places. It twists along the middle to go from a straight wand massager to a wand massager with a 90 degree angle. It also has a g-spot, insertable end along with an external wand massager end, and both ends have their own controls and motors.

Showing the flexibility of the head

The packaging is pretty. It’s huge packaging as the wand massager itself is pretty big (a foot long). The packaging is clear and pink, and it’s made from plastic. The Climax Twist comes with the recharging cable as well as a tray that the charger and the vibrator sit in. This box is wider than the toy itself and it doesn’t seem to hold up too well, so you probably won’t want to use it for long-term storage. It does look nice though.

The Climax Twist 7X Massager includes two ends, so not only does it twist in the middle, but it also was designed to be both a massager and an insertable toy. One end of the massager includes a rubber-tipped end that has vibrations in the tip while the opposing end also has vibrations and is a plastic, g-spot end. This g-spot end is pretty large at slightly over 2 inches in diameter (and in hard plastic!) while the head of the wand massager is smaller at about an inch and a half diameter. The head of the Climax Twist is smaller than the Hitachi, so Hitachi attachments will not work with this wand massager.

Showing the controls for the massager

As you can tell, one of the main selling points of the Climax Twist massager is the fact that it twists into both a long, straight shape as well as a 90 degree angle. It twists via the middle portion of the massager. If you apply pressure towards the right, the toy will start to move into the 90-degree style. There’s an arrow embedded into the surface of the toy in case you forget. It “snaps” into place, but there is no sort of button or anything that locks it into place like the JeJoue G-Ki does; the Climax Twist wand massager will attempt to switch designs when heavy pressure is applied.

The head of the wand massager end is made from rubber. I was actually surprised by this as the picture makes it look like silicone, and there is no scent straight out of the box. It is scentless. You can definitely feel the difference in the material texture, though, and as this is the only rubber on the toy (the rest is plastic), this may not bother you. I do have to wonder why this toy just wasn’t made with silicone, though, as it doesn’t seem like it would have made much of a difference for such a small portion of the toy.

Showing how the massager twists

The Climax Twist 7X Massager is rechargeable as well! It had a baby-bit of a charge when I first received it, but it doesn’t seem like it was supposed to have come with a full charge. An annoyance was the fact that it has no charging light. I have no idea if I managed to get it to a full charge at 12 hours of charge, but it seems to have charged okay. The toy charges via a little charging port near the control panel that has a phone-like cover port that keeps bodily fluids out of it. The massager can be charged while laid flat as well as at a 90 degree angle. It has a plug-in that stays plugged in really nicely.

The vibrations can be controlled by two different buttons for the two different ends. There is a dedicated on/off button for each end, and there is a dedicated 7-function button for each end as well. Both ends can be turned on at once, but it does make a toy a bit odd as somethines, if pressure is applied to one vibrating end, the other will start pulsating or things like that. For most people, I’m sure only having vibrations on one-end at a time won’t hurt. The buttons are very easy to press, and you do have to be careful during use not to press the buttons as it’s int he middle of the grip to avoid changing vibrations accidentally.

Showing how the massager twists

The vibrations are strong for a rechargeable. They’re on the higher end of moderate. They’re about 60% as strong as the lower setting of the Hitachi, but for a rechargeable, that’s pretty good. I was a bit disappointed by the fact that there’s only a single speed setting (with 6 patterns), though, so if you like to “ramp” it up, it probably won’t work too well for you as you only have the single speed setting. The vibrations are pretty deep and rumbly – not as much as the Hitachi, but still deep and rumbly. As for sound, both ends of the toy can be heard in the same room, but the g-spot end is much, much louder. The wand massager end may not be able to be heard outside of a closed door, but the g-spot end most likely could if it was not inserted; it’s pretty loud.

As a wand massager, it works okay. It seems much, much more natural, at least, when using it on myself, to have it laying the full foot-long, straight version for use externally. The 90 degree angle version is okay, but it feels difficult to get a good grip on the toy for good use while in 90 degrees. The 90 degree style may come in more handy for when a partner is using it on you or if you are attempting to use it during penetration. The vibrations mean that the Climax Twist will probably work pretty well as an external toy for those who desire stronger vibrations.

As an insertable toy, I must say that I’m surprised anyone thought this would make a good insertable for the average person. It’s an okay design, but it really doesn’t make a good g-spot toy on the g-spot end. The ridges where you can see what looks like a flexible aspect of the g-spot end actually ends up being kinda painful during use, and the two inch diameter is way, way too big for the average person (myself included). Especially as it’s made of hard plastic. If you tend to enjoy the Njoy Eleven or other large, hard insertable items, the g-spot end of the Climax Twist 7X Massager might work for you, but for the average person, I think this is going to stay much more external than internal.

A note is that this will seem to work better if you’re left-handed. Why? Because the “twisting” portion twists to the right. So when I attempt to apply pressure with my right hand (when in straight style), if you press the right way, it will attempt to go into 90 degree mode. For people like myself who really enjoy pressure on their toys, this happened more than once which did make it annoying. If you are left-handed, though, the toy’s “twist” function will be opposite the way you are applying pressure, so you won’t have that issue.

Cleaning this sex toy does require that you use warm water and antibacterial soap. It is not waterproof, so be careful not to get water on too many portions of the toy. Because the tips are made from rubber, make sure to use a condom if you want to share this wand massager with a partner. For the large, g-spot end, I recommend not using a thin condom as the tip of the toy may burst through the condom as the condom will be pretty stuffed already with the large diameter of the massager. This wand massager is compatible with all types of lubricant, and it can be stored virtually anywhere. Just be careful not to get it too hot as the rubber may not like that.

Overall, the Climax Twist massager is a strong massager that does an okay job at external stimulation. It provides a large stable of options and designs for whatever you feel like using that day. However, these options could use some improvements as the g-spot end is pretty huge, the wand massager can attempt to switch its angle during use, it is made from rubber, and it’s hard to accurately recharge this. If you want the flexibility of the wand massager, though, it does have the power to back its wand massager status up.

The Leaf Vitality vibrator sitting out

The Leaf Vitality vibrator is a new Leaf sex toy created by Swan Vibes and sold by this sex toys store. This silicone vibrator features two flexible leaf “tips” along with two different motors and controls for the motors. It is waterproof and rechargeable, with a diameter of about 3/4″ on the larger insertable end. The Leaf Vitality comes in this beautiful lime green color.

The Leaf Vitality has some really beautiful packaging. It comes packaged in a sturdy, cardboard box that displays the product and the product’s ahep on the outside of the box. It is a brown like it is made of recycled cardboard, and the box is very sturdy and will hold up to weight being placed on top of it. Inside the box, there is the vibrator, the charger, the instruction manual, and the storage bag. The box is much larger than the vibrator, though, so you may just want to keep the storage bag and recycle the box.

The Leaf vibrator series is a new line of eco-friendly sex toys made by Swan Vibes. This line of silicone vibrators is actually made by the same manufacturing plant that makes the Jopen Vanity vibrators, so you’ll probably notice a similarity in the controls as well as in the texture and feeling of the silicone. I actually enjoy this aspect of the Leaf vibrators as the Jopen Vanity sex toys have worked well for me in the past.

A side-view of the sex toy

The design of the Leaf Vitality is probably a design you haven’t seen before. Just like the rest of the Leaf vibrators, the Leaf Vitality has been designed with an environmental concept with two “leaves” that come out from the ball-like middle for dual stimulation. Each one of the leaves in itself is not very flexible, but they are flexible near the base which allows them to pull apart almost into a straight line. The buttons to control the vibrator as well as the charging port are in the middle of the center of the vibrator. The silicone material has a slight drag to it, but it is not plushy at all. It feels like the silicone is probably coating a harder material underneath (such as plastic) which is fine by me as harder materials tend to transfer vibrations better anyway.

Just like the other Leaf Vitality vibrators, the Leaf Vitality is rechargeable. The recharging port is located towards the center portion of the toy. The socket does take a bit of force to get it in, so be aware of that; you’re not hurting it if you have to push a bit harder. When its charging, it has a red light that shows up on the vibrator, and the red light goes away once the vibrator is finished charging. It comes almost fully charged, but you should still charge it to its fullest before using. The Leaf Vitality also has travel lock allow you to travel with it.

Showing the control buttons

In order to control the vibrations, the Leaf Vitality uses the “Press and Hold” technology. This means that, in order to control the vibration strength, you just press down the button on the vibrator and hold it. As long as you are holding down the button, the vibrator will continue to get stronger until it has hit its maximum. To turn it off, you just do a singular press of the button. The Leaf Vitality has two separate motors – each in each one of the leaves, and there are two buttons on the base of the toy that allows you to easily control each one of the motors individually.

The vibrations do leave something to be desired. Just like the rest of the Leaf vibrators line, the vibrations are a bit buzzy and can only be felt on the surface. If those types of vibrations are okay for you, you might like it, but for me, I really would enjoy more deep, rumbly types of vibrations. The vibrations don’t get any weaker, though, when pressure is applied, which is good. They are on the lower end of moderate, and both of the leaves seem to be about the same amount of intensity. In a room with a television turned on, with both Leaf Vitality motors on full-blast, it can be hard to hear the vibrator. There is no way the vibrations can be heard outside of a closed door, and the vibrator does a good job of being pretty quiet.

Showing how far the leaves bend

For use, the Leaf Vitality certainly is very unique! The two different leaves are supposed to work for both internal and external stimulation at the same time. Judging by the curve and the buttons, the larger leaf is meant to be inserted while the smaller leaf is used for external, clitoral stimulation. I found that the opposite worked better for me – inserted the smaller leaf while using the larger leaf externally. Yes, then the buttons are upside down, but the larger leaf was created longer in length, so to get the external leaf to be where it needs to be at externally, using the longer leaf is needed. The shorter one doesn’t quite reach right where I want it.

When inserted, neither leaf really hits the g-spot or anything. It certainly is enough if you like to feel “something” inserted, but it is not enough if you are used to a more filling sensation or enjoy the feeling of being stretched or really filled. It does, however, do a good job of bringing vibrations internally if that’s what you enjoy. Just don’t expect it to hit your g-spot or provide any filling sensation.

Something I want to try for the future, though I haven’t yet, is using this like the Split Dildo – by inserting both of the leaves. The design and flexibility at the base of the leaves may make that very pleasurable – or not. I haven’t had the chance to try it yet, but if two different leaf sensations sound like a good idea to you, that may be a use you’ll want to consider.

Showing the packaging

Keep in mind that, if you like strong or hard-pressure stimulation externally, you’ll have to hold the external leaf onto yourself with your other hand. The base of the leaves are very flexible, so the leaf will tend to move away from your body as you apply more pressure with the toy. With that in mind, you’ll want to use your other hand to push the leaf up against you if that is the type of stimulation you want to try.

To clean your Leaf Vitality, it doesn’t take much effort. As one of the luxury adult toys, the Leaf Vitality is waterproof which means that you don’t have to worry about running water over it. Using warm water and anti-bacterial soap, you can easily clean off the material of the vibrator. Because of the design, covering this with a condom will not work very well, so you may want to keep that in mind. As the Leaf Vitality is made of silicone, it’s only compatible with water-based lubricant. For storage, I recommend storing it in the storage pouch that it comes with, but it can sit out if you’d like.

Overall, the Leaf Vitality is a good vibrator and has a good design, but it really depends on what you want it for. The design is really neat, and if you just want to experience surface vibrations both internally and externally at the same time, the Leaf Vitality could be exactly what you want. If you want a stronger vibrator that fills you up inside, though, the Leaf Vitality may not be for you. Thanks to TabuToys for providing one of their Leaf vibrators for my Leaf Vitality review.

Kinklab Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring packaging

The Kinklab Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring is a leather harness made by Kinklab and sold by FunWares. The harness includes a nickle-plated cock ring and is made with three locking buckles. It fits a 28″ to 44″ waist , and all three straps are adjustable.

The packaging for the Kinklab Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring is similar to other Kinklab pouch packaging. This butt plug harness comes in a flexible plastic bag with a button closure. There is a piece of cardboard that shows a picture of the harness and of the features of the Kinklab butt plug harness. This pouch is completely see-through, so it doesn’t store the harness discreetly, but it will keep the leather from shedding on other items. It includes a plastic D-ring, so you can hang this up if you wanted.

Showing the overview of the harness

The Kinklab Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring‘s design shows that Kinklab definitely tried out their product and added in all of the features that bring it from “okay” to “wow!”. All of the buckles on the butt plug harness are locking buckles for extra bondage fun. The cock ring itself uses snaps, so you can change it out with another cock ring. Both the waist straps and crotch strap can be lengthened and shortened. There is a snap thatholds the butt plug holder piece on, so you can unsnap the snap to switch out/take out your butt plug instead of having to take off the entire harness. The crotch strap was made thinner than the waist straps for extra comfort. It definitely shows that Kinklab put some good thought into this product.

Enlarge picture if you want to see the leather shedding that it left behind in my photography area

Something to be aware of is that the leather of the Kinklab Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring does shed little fluffs of leather for awhile after you first own it. Once you’ve had it and used it a couple times, it will stop shedding as much, but at first, the black dots will show up on white fabrics, so you may not want to wear this with white clothing or play with it on white sheets if the leather pieces will both you. They don’t stain or anything, but they can be a pain to wipe up.

The Cock Ring on the front of the harness is a two inch cock ring. It’s also metal. Unless you are experienced with cock rings, I honestly do have a slight issue with this. Metal is very unforgiving and very hard to get fully “into” and out of. As the design of this harness pretty much requires that you use the cock ring around the base of your entire penis (instead of just at the base of the shaft) in order to fit comfortably, this means squeezing both balls through this metal ring – which is a scary thing to think about for unexperienced cock ring users. For experienced users, this two inch metal cock ring may work just fine. There is a saving grace of this though which only makes it slightly annoying: the cock ring itself can be switch out for other cock rings!

The cock ring

The neat thing about this cock ring is the fact that it can be exchanged out for another cock ring. There are snaps, much like a regular strap-on harness, that allow you to unsnap this cock ring and place other cock rings in its place. Cock rings similar to metal harness rings may work best for the design of this harness, or if you want something more flexible, strap-on O-rings that are large enough in diameter would be more flexible and would still fit into the snap holes for this butt plug harness. Regular cock rings that have width to them will also fit into this butt plug harness – though it’ll be a tighter fit in the leather.

Showing the butt plug harness portion

The butt plug pouch on the backside of the Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring will hold a variety of dildos. It actually is two layers of leather. The inner-most layer has a small rectangle cut in the leather to “hold” ring-tailed butt plugs (like the Njoy Pure Plug) in. This layer also isn’t fully riveted on the sides, so if you wanted, you could squeeze a flared base inbetween the two layers (though it is very hard to do and depends on which butt plug you’re using). Both layers are thin, but both are study, so this will do a good job of keeping your butt plug inside your bum. It doesn’t stretch much either (again, a good thing).

Is the harness the most comfortable thing in the world? No, not really. The boyfriend says that the strap between the legs can get slightly uncomfortable – especially the first time he wore it. He says that the leather seems to be softening a bit as he wears it (Or maybe he’s getting used to it), so it’s becoming more comfortable over time. He does say that it’s not painful – it’s just really awkward as it’s something that he’s not used to. He mentions that if you do a ton of walking around (wearing this during an active job during the day), it might chaffe a bit though. (If you were to do this, make sure you choose a non-restraining cock ring size). As long as it’s tight (tighter than your jean’s belt as the jeans may snag on it and pull it down), he says that he has no issue with the harness pulling down and slipping off. He does mention that he makes it pretty tight, though, around his waist – to the point that it’s uncomfortable for bending over. The fact that it includes a cock ring does help to keep it tight against your body as well.

Does it hold your butt plug in though? Surprisingly, yes! As long as you have this butt plug harness fastened securely and tightly, he claims that it doesn’t seem to try and “push” itself out like a butt plug would normally if you weren’t wearing a harness. He says that, depending on your body, the harness’s butt plug area may not be in exactly the right spot, but he says that it still does a great job of holding in the plug – even if it’s off slightly like his is (due to anatomy differences and the fact that you can’t “move” the butt plug holder along the strap of leather). You can, however, shorten and lengthen the strap itself which does help a ton. It is impressive that this butt plug harness does hold in the toys really nicely though. Whether a ring base toy (we tried an Njoy Pure Plug) or a flared base toy (we tried the VixSkin Spur), this butt plug harness seems to keep both types in just fine.

The locking buckles

Have a locking fetish? This harness can also be locked on! All three of the buckles (the two waist straps and the crotch strap) are all adjustable, and all three can also be locked on using the locking buckles that is uses. The buckles allow you to easily adjust the sizing of this harness, and with the locks on them, you can easily lock someone “captive” into this piece of bondage, too.

Cleaning this is a bit of a pain. This is leather, so it can not be sterilized. This means that this is fluid-bonded. Assuming that you use lubricant with your toys (like you should!), you’ll probably end up with some sort of lubricant on the harness. Leather shouldn’t be cleaned with soap and water, so you’ll want to just wipe it down with a damp washcloth and make SURE to let it air dry all the way. For this reason, it’s probably a one-person harness because bodily fluids are certainly going to get on the leather in one way or another. For best storage, let the leather sit out somewhere where it can air, but you can keep it in the storage pouch as well.

Overall, the Kinklab Butt Plug Harness with Cock Ring is an amazing butt plug harness. It’s adjustable in many ways, and while not extremely comfortable, it’s comfortable enough to wear to keep your butt plug in. It locks for extra bondage fun, and it keeps both flared and ringed base plugs in just fine. It does, however, come with a metal cock ring, and to use the harness, you have to use SOME sort of ring. However, the cock ring itself includes snaps to change out the ring, so if you aren’t use to using metal quite yet, you can change it out for your favorite type of cock ring. I also wish the leather didn’t shed quite so much, but it’s improving the longer we own it. I really can’t recommend this butt plug harness enough if you need one because it does do a good job of keeping toys in.

The box of the Male Playing Cards

The Male Playing Cards from Evolved are a deck of 54 cards and is sold by this sex toys store.. It includes the typical 52 cards along with two jokers. The deck is mostly an erotica (not pornographic) deck of pictures, and just like Evolved’s other female playing card decks, this one is done really tastefully. The cards come in a typical playing card box that is covered of pictures of the pictures of the cards that come inside the box.

There are 52 cards inside the box, and each one is of a male. All of the males are really muscular, and the majority are white. There are a couple different ethnicities represented, but the majority of the males are European-looking and white.

Honestly, if you’ve seen some of the fancy jean ads (like Abercromie and Fitch), those are about the same types of guys as I see in these cards. They are posed about the same way too – looking off away from the camera, wearing sunglasses, or other photography aspects.

Showing the cards laying out

There isn’t really much nudity. There are a couple male butts, but there are no penises to be seen. Most of the males are wearing boxer-briefs or tight jeans and are just shirtless. All of the men are showing off their chest, and all of them are very toned and muscular. Personally, this isn’t my preferred type of body type, but the males do look attractive, and they are really nicely and artistically posed. It’s nothing lewd at all, and it’s probably nothing more “sexy” (except the man-butt pictures) than what you could probably see somewhere in a women’s magazine ad.

The card design is nice. Each one of the cards has a bit of a “western” theme to them. Each one says “Evolved Playing Cards” on the back and has the link to Evolved. It also shows two little crossed guns with a western-looking design. On the front, it shows the picture of the guy for the majority of the card, and it has the suit and number on each corner (as well as the upside down version like most playing cards). It also has the Evolved website link on each one of the cards on the side too.

Showing one of the cards

These male playing cards seem like they’ll hold up pretty well. Each one is laminated like a regular playing card would be. It’s more glossy than matte than a poker playing card deck, but it’s about on-par with what you’d expect if you purchased any other picture-type playing cards. It’s slightly bendable, and with very long use, you’ll probably bend the edges a bit, but for regular use and hold up, it’ll be fine. The Male Playing Cards are also slightly laminated, so you can easily wipe up fingerprints or if you spill something on them.

Overall, the Male Playing Cards are high-quality, and they should last a long time – even with frequent use. The guys on the cards are not my cup of tea, but judging by media and advertisements, they are probably the cup of tea for most women and men, so most people will probably enjoy them. If you want good-quality cards that feature shirtless and sometimes show butts, these cards are a good choice. I purchased my Male Playing Cards at EdenFantasys for my Male Playing Cards review.
