The Intermediate Anal Pleasure Kit is a kit of three anal toys sold by MyPleasure. The kit includes the Love Bump (Love Pacifier), the Vibrating Pleasure Probe, the Vibrating Waves, Sensual Essence lubricant, and the Large satin bag that comes with the MyPleasure logo. Each one of the anal toys is made from silicone, California Exotics brand, and is claimed to be body-safe. The Sensual Essence lubricant is its own brand.
The packaging for the Intermediate Anal Pleasure kit was surprising to me. I was expecting all of the items to come packaged in the MyPleasure bag that the kit comes with. Instead, all of the items come packaged in large, individual boxes and the bag is included with all of the items. If you had been planning on giving this as a gift as a large set, it wouldn’t work out as well as you’d either have to take the items out of their boxes or repackage them in another box and wrap it. I honestly don’t know a way around this, though, as it would have been odd to have each toy out of its box too. Maybe plastic bags for each toy could be used? Either way, each individual toy comes in its own storage box, and as the boxes are too large to comfortably fit inside the bag at once, you’ll probably want to remove the toys from the boxes and just keep them in the bags.
This set is intended for people with some anal experience. This would be people who have had some regular experience with their fingers and small anal toys and are looking for something larger. These toys are not that large though. Two of them are about the size of two of my fingers, and the third is about the size of three of my fingers. Don’t expect these to stretch you at all, but instead, they should be a step up from when you get comfortable with taking a finger or two. The Love Pacifier is the smallest, then the Ultimate Satisfier is the next smallest, and the Triple Satisfier is the largest out of the three. As this kit comes with three plugs, you certainly could “work” your way up the size scale by using each one at a time.
Taking this anal kit apart piece-by-piece:
The Ultimate Love Pacifier is a silicone butt toy that is angled for pleasure. It does not vibrate, but instead, is mostly intended for insertion and then a gentle massage of the insides once inserted. Like the idea of the Aneros toys, this toy is angled to be able to be a prostate massager if you have experience with prostate play. The toy includes a ring around the handle that makes it easy to move around once inserted. If you have a vibrator that fits (a bullet is too small), you could possibly slip a small vibrator through here, but it would not sit comfortably between the cheeks. The material does have quite a bit of drag to it, and unless you use a ton of lubricant, it can be uncomfortable, so if that is a problem, you can cover it with a condom.
The Ultimate Love Pacifier (Love Bump) features two different bumps/curves on the shaft of the sex toy. The first bump is smaller which makes the toy easier to take anally. The second bump gets a bit larger, and after you take in the second bump, the toy gets smaller to help you retain the size. As long as you can take two or three fingers comfortably, you can probably take the Ultimate Love Pacifier without a problem. The toy doesn’t stay in nearly as well as a butt plug, but it will stay in if you aren’t too active. There are little bumps on the handle ring of the toy that will press up against the skin. As long as your skin is lubricated (and you don’t have jeans or something shoving the toy against you), the bumps/ridges feel pleasurable. They can be painful if there is too much pressure though.
The Ultimate Satisfier is another pure silicone anal toy that is included in this kit. This one, however, vibrates through the AAA battery that is inserted into it. It basically has a hole inside the toy where this bullet vibrator is inserted, but it is really difficult to remove the bullet, so I tend to leave it in; you can still change the batteries with the bullet in. The toy has two different speeds, and they are relatively quiet. They can be heard in the same room, but they can probably not be heard outside of a closed door. The vibrations are not the strongest, but you will certainly notice them during use.
The Ultimate Satisfier has a design similar to the Love Pacifier, but it tends to be a bit more intense. Instead of the two bulbs like last time, this one has three – and each one tends to be a bit more intense. The toy also has a small arm that’s going to hit the perineum during use, and depending on how you’re thrusting or using it, it definitely could massage the area. As the silicone isn’t very flexible, though, you do have to watch it as it can end up pinching or being uncomfortable. This toy is definitely more intense than the Love Pacifier, but it’s still not so big that intermediate users can’t use it. As long as you’ve had some previous experience with anal (not just fingers), the Ultimate Satisfier should work fine for you.
The Triple Satisfier is another vibrating anal toy, and this one comes with a removable bullet inside of the toy. It takes 3 watch batteries, and the toy comes with 6 watch batteries, so you have all the batteries you need and more. The vibrations are not too strong; they are on the weaker side. This may be because the silicone is pretty thick around the bulb of the toy, and the vibrations don’t travel nearly as well towards this bulb as they could. The vibrations, though, are relatively quiet, so that helps you be more discreet when using the toys.
The Triple Satisfier is, by far, the largest one of the three. This is because this is the one that most resembles a butt plug instead of just a prostate-type toy. It has the large bulb at the tip and the smaller shaft to aid in rentention and keeping the butt plug in. The bulb is pretty darned large, though, at about and inch and a half, so this is definitely the largest toy and is on the upper end of “intermediate”. Again, the silicone is pretty draggy to the touch, so you want to make sure to use tons of lubricant, and this butt plug actually features two different “arms” that can touch the perineum or the clitoris and perineum – depending upon how you use it. The toy does tend to stay in really well, and out of all three toys, this is the toy with the most flexible perineal arms for the most comfort. As the bullet is removable, you could definitely wear this under clothing as there wouldn’t be a bulge once the bullet is removed from the base of the toy. Again, though, it is pretty large, so this is the hardest to “take” of the three items.
The Sensual Essence Gel Lubricant is a small, 2 ounce bottle of water-based lubricant. It’s paraben free, and the 2 ounce bottle should be enough for multiple play sessions. We’ve used it a couple times with each item, and as long as you tend not to use a ton, you should be fine for ten or more uses. The lubricant is relatively thick which is great for an anal lubricant. It tends to stay where you place it without running too much, and when you shake the bottle back and forth (just to give you an idea of the consistency), the lubricant doesn’t “move” at all in the bottle. If I hadn’t used it, I’d probably guess it wasn’t a liquid at all. The lubricant tends to work really well for anal as it’s thick, but it does get sticky after awhile, so you certainly will want to wash it off afterwards. For coming with the kit, though, you do get your use out of it, and it is thick and stays long enough for you to get some good use out of the toys. It’s not the best water-based anal lubricant out there (as it can be sticky), but it certainly gets the job done.
Ingredients of the Sensual Essence Gel lubricant (taken from the MyPleasure website): Water (Aqua), Propylene Glycol, Glyceryl Polymethacrylate, Glycerin (vegetable sourced), Sodium PCA, Sodium Hyaluronate, Na-Carbomer, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Disodium EDTA, Quaternium-15
The set works well as an entire set. Each one of the toys is slightly different than the other, so you really get a whole “feel” for the idea of intermediate anal pleasure without having to spend a ton of money. None of the toys are so similar that you feel like you purchased the exact same item, and each one is a decent toy. With the curves involved, it seems like the items seem more slanted towards a prostate-owning audience wanting to try prostate pleasure, but the items can definitely be used by anyone. According to the website, the set can also be used for g-spot pleasure, so that’s another plus.
Cleaning this kit is pretty simple. Each one of the toys is waterproof, so you just have to use warm water and antibacterial soap to clean the toys. We’ve found that soaking them in water overnight helps prevent any unwanted scents as does using condoms with them. As each one is silicone, only use water-based lubricant on the toys, and you can store these however you want – I’m keeping them in the included MyPleasure storage bag. They don’t seem to pick up too much lint or fuzz, though, so you can keep them where it works best for you.
Overall, I like the Intermediate Anal Pleasure Kit. It includes three different toys that provide three different sensations and are three different “skill” levels. I would say that the kit seems slanted toward prostate pleasure, but anyone could use this kit. The silicone on each one of the toys creates too much drag for the submissive’s taste, but condoms or extra lubricant got rid of that problem. I also like the fact that some of them vibrate and all of them are made from Safe and Pure silicone. If you want an affordable silicone anal toy set, this one could be it. Thanks to MyPleasure for providing this pleasure kit for my Intermediate Anal Pleasure Kit review.
