Women’s Health Picks 20 Sex Toys That Could 'Change Your Life'

CYBERSPACE—In a feature published recently on its site, Women's Health magazine highlighted “20 Sex Toys That Might Just Change Your Life.” Set up as a slideshow, the 20 picks were billed as “top pleasure boosts—whether you want to go on a solo mission or share the good vibes with your guy.” The Screaming O—whose Makeup Brush Vibe was featured—tipped AVN off to the product spotlight. Women's Health selected items from a wide range of manufacturers: drugstore brands like Trojan and Durex, large pleasure product manufacturers like California Exotic Novelties, and boutique manufacturers like Jimmyjane and Revel Body. The products were organized in four categories: Nightstand-Friendly/For a Newbie included discreet and playful choices: the Shiri Zinn Cupcake, the Crave Wink Vibe, the Trojan Vibrating Multi-Thrill 3 in 1 Vibrating Bullet, the Screaming O Studio Collection Makeup Brush Vibe, and the Lifestyles a:muse His & Hers Pleasure Massagers. Almost-Real Replica/For a Newbie offered items that looked more like sex toys but were suitable for new users: the Durex Play Allure Intimate Massager, the Adam & Eve Silicone Diamond G, the Jimmyjane Form 6, Lovehoney's Sqweel 2, and the CalExotics Bendies Stud Ballsy. Nightstand-Friendly/For an Experienced Pro: Included were the Revel Body Sonic Vibrator, Lelo Ora, Jimmyjane Form 2 Luxury Edition, Vibratex's Magic Wand and the We-Vibe 4. Almost-Real Replica/For an Experienced Pro: Highlighted the Adam & Eve L'Arque G-Spot Massager, Lelo Smart Wand, Afterglow, OhMiBod Lovelife Adventure and Vibratex Rabbit Habit. Women's Health also provided prices on the items, links to either manufacturer or retail sites, and a note on whether the toys were designed for solo or couples use. (See links below to AVN's reviews of some of these products.) “The Makeup Brush has been a favorite with first-timers and women who prefer soft massage-like vibration, and it’s no surprise that the editors at Women’s Health touted it not only for its feel but also for its incognito look!” The Screaming O representative Conde Aumann said. “It’s no big deal if this mini vibe is left out in the open or packed in a purse; it looks so much like makeup, no one will even bat an eyelash. It’s her little secret—and we promise that keeping a secret never felt so good!” The Screaming O Studio Collection Makeup Brush Vibe was recommended by editors at Women’s Health for its “blush-worthy” design that gives women a discreet and compact way to spice up their sex lives. Women’s Health writers recommended the Makeup Brush’s “tease” pulsation that transfers powerful vibration through its thick, flexible silicone “bristles.” See the feature in Women’s Health here.
