UPDATE APRIL 2020: The Black Magic Pleasure Kit is no longer in production. This review remains as a reference for anyone who needs it.
The Black Magic Pleasure Kit is a collection of vibrators and lubricant made by Doc Johnson. The kit includes everything you need to experience some of the basic types of vibrators: a pocket rocket, a traditional vibrator, and a bullet vibrator. It also includes a small bottle of Black Magic Lubricant in order to make your play sessions even more fun. All of the items are made of plastic, and overall, the entire kit takes 3 AA batteries and 2 AAA batteries.
The packaging is absolutely adorable. It’s a bit large, but then again, it does fit three different vibrators and some lubricant. The outer packaging is a cute, purple design that is see-through and allows the buyer to see the toys inside the packaging. The packaging is definitely really cute, though, and it would be suitable for gift-giving. It’s a bit large for storage – especially since all of the items in the package are plastic which means that they won’t pick up hair or lint, so there isn’t too much of a worry with any of them.
Since this is a lot of items to go over seperately, I’ll go over each one individually. I will say that the group of items work together as a set. You probably don’t want to use them all in one session, but since they are packaged together, you actually save a deal on each item as you don’t have to pay full price for each item. Instead, you get them all as a set. Each one can be used at the same time or in the same session, or, like me, you might want to spread them out and use each one on a different session. It’s completely up to you, and the Black Magic Pleasure Kit gives you the freedom to do that. Plus, each piece is made from silky-smooth plastic that your fingers will glide over, and all of that material is also body-safe, so you don’t have to worry about using unsafe materials.
The strongest, and my favorite, of the vibrator is the traditonal, tall vibrator called the Black Magic Vibrator. This vibrator is made of the smooth, silky plastic that the rest of the vibrators are, and it’s basically your average vibrator. It takes two AA batteries which are extremely easy to insert, and out of the three, this one is the most powerful in strength. The dial at the bottom of the vibrator controls the vibration strength, and at the strongest point, this vibrator is on the middle of moderate in terms of vibrators. It’s not very strong, but it’s not very weak either. The vibrations lean towards the buzzier side of things, but I would think that most women would be able to orgasm through the strength of this vibrator. It can be heard in the same room, but this vibrator’s vibrations can not be heard outside of a closed door.
In use, this vibrator is pretty good as an external vibrator. Don’t expect to be able to comfortably insert this vibrator as I don’t think it was ever meant for that – the plastic is just too hard, too ungiving, and the end is just a bit too pointy. I’m sure some people will enjoy inserting it, but it just is not for me. It works okay as an external vibrator, but for me, I’m a bit more used to stronger vibrations. For this reason, I had a hard time with orgasm with any of the vibrators in the series. This vibrator got me over, but the rest couldn’t. It was definitely more difficult though. However, if you don’t regularly use strong vibrators or know you’d enjoy more moderate vibrations, you may find that the Black Magic Vibrator is exactly the type of vibrator you’d like to use.
The Black Magic Bullet is an interesting-looking bullet vibrator. This one includes a bullet/egg attached to a controller by about a two-foot long cord. This vibrator takes two AAA batteries which fit easily into the base of the vibrator. They are a bit difficult to take out though. The bullet/egg on this one is a bit oddly shaped. It’s thicker than the average bullet, but it’s not thick enough to be considered an “egg”, so it’s more in a moderate range of size. There are four different steady-speed vibration levels, and the controller can easy change between them with the up and down buttons included. These buttons are very easy to press, and a red light shows up on the controller to show you which level of strength that you are at.
The Black Magic Bullet is a good idea for couple’s play for us. Why? Because of the red LED light. This makes it easy, if I’m to hold the bullet on myself, for the boyfriend to control the controller and know exactly which speed that the bullet is on. We used this for external use, but it could also be pretty easily inserted as well. It’s just as quiet as the other vibrator, so it could be heard in the same room, but it can not be heard outside of a closed door. The vibrations are almost as strong as the traditional vibrator, but the vibrations on this Black Magic Bullet also seem to be much more rumbly. It does make a pretty good external vibrator – especially if you don’t need power-house vibrations.
The Black Magic Pocket Rocket is a pocket rocket style vibrator. It uses one AA battery which inserts through the base of the vibrator. The base then twists back on and works as your on/off switch as well. This vibrator only has one-speed setting, and it is, by far, the weakest of the three vibrators included in the kit. It’s about 3/4 of the strength of the rest of the vibrators, and to me, it does feel a bit buzzier as well. This one can definitely be heard in the same room, and it possibly could be heard through a closed door, but I don’t think it would be likely.
I’m not much of a fan of pocket rockets, to be honest, but this was does have a nice, smooth body which makes it easy to hold onto. The on/off switch can definitely be hard to flip, and it’s a two-handed ordeal which can be annoying. The neat thing about this pocket rocket is that it comes with an extra cap. The cap shown in the product pictures (and my pictures) can easily be removed to expose the three-ball design that most pocket rockets have. The cap can be slightly painful to use if you aren’t fully aroused and lubricated, so make sure to take the cap off unless you are sure you’d be able to take an intense texture.
The Black Magic Lubricant is a water-based lubricant. It comes in a one-ounce bottle that is very easy to use and pour. It is completely clear, and it looks a bit like thick water. It’s not quite a gel, but it is more thick than water as well. It doesn’t really have any strong smell, and it applies pretty easily to the body parts. It isn’t like water, so it does take a bit of smoothing around to get the surface properly covered. The lubricant does a good job of keeping things slick for awhile, but once it does dry, it does feel slightly sticky. It wasn’t bad enough that I had to wash up right away, but it was something that I cleaned up with a wipe as it was slightly annoying. The lubricant does a good job of lasting through the entire play session, though, and I never had to reapply it. It keeps things slick for a long time, but once it does dry, I did want to clean it up.
The ingredients for the Black Magic Lubricant include: Glycerin, Flavor, Mangifera Indica (Mango) Fruit Extract, Carica Papaya (Papaya) Fruit Extract, Ananas Sativus (Pineapple) Fruit Extract, Butylene Glycol, Alcohol Denatured Cirtic Acid, Water, Blue 1, Yellow 5, and Red 40. The only problematic ingredient I can see is the Glycerin which has been known to cause sensitive women to be more at risk for yeast infections. If you have problems with yeast infections, I probably wouldn’t use this lubricant, but otherwise, you could be good to go!
Cleaning this set is definitely very easy as all of the items are waterproof. You just have to use warm water and anti-bacterial soap. As all of the items are also plastic, you can sterilize by using bleach or by just using condoms with all of the items. The included water-based lubricant works well with the toys, but a silicone-based or oil-based would be fine as well. For storage, you can keep these wherever you’d like as plastic doesn’t pick up hair or dust or need special storage concerns. We’re keeping one of the vibrators by our bed in a cabinet, and it doesn’t give us any worries about it.
Overall, I like the Black Magic Pleasure Kit, but I do with that the vibrations were stronger. The moderate vibrations leave me wishing for a bit more power. At the same time, all of the items are good quality, feel comfortably and are easy to use, and can easily be cleaned, so if you want an easy way to try out multiple vibrators at once, the Black Magic Vibrator Kit makes it very easy.
