Great idea @Stacy2

Hopefully it will flow with questions and answers after each review.

Hey @Stacy2 ,

We tested the Womanizer lipstick too and my OH was really surprised.

While the shape isn’t going to fool anyone into thinking its lipstick, we’ve thrown it into a makeup bag and with the lid on most people won’t give it a second glance ( we tested the pink and green one ).

She thought the angle of the nozzle relative to the body would be an issue as she has short arms but found it to worked really well when in a sitting position. The angles just worked for her were as her current top of the crop felt a little awkward in comparison.

We agree the build quality, the weight and the feel are very good. You think its going to be a bit unpleasant to hold because of what looks like sharp edges but the silicone and chamfering work well to disguise it. Never feels like you’re holding a box.

Lack of interchangeable heads is a complaint we have with every suction toy she has. Many times now its seemed a toy only needed a different size, shape or angled nozzle and it would of been so much more effective. I think that personalisation for your anatomy is really important and can make the difference between a meh experience and mind blowing, but then I suspect manufacturers are using it to increase sales of a wider range of toys. Feels just a little cynical.

My OH likes the softer power settings so the upper middle of the range worked for her. But yes, it gets really quite noisy at the top end and being more of an exponential ramp up than a linear, most settings are low. Toys seem to be maxing out at 8 settings these days. I think this was 6(?) I assume thats down to the current cost of the electronics. AI ruins everything.

The last 3 toys we’ve had have all been USB charging and its so much more convenient. To be able to just swap from phone charging to a toy instead of balancing one of the variable sized two prong magnetic connectors… yup. A step in the right direction and I was surprised to see this is waterproofed.

I think overall, the shape initially set our expectations quite low. The whole novelty approach never usually works for us and comes off tacky and old fashioned. But we were both surprised by the build and material quality, and the final result. In practice she preferred this to the Womanizer Pro.

It left me with mixed emotions @I_ll_try_anything - It’s super cute though and I’m grateful for the opportunity to test it.

There is definitely a market for it. I have the Womanizer Next and I couldn’t help but slightly compare - which probably isn’t fair given the price difference. I do have the mid-range Pro40 which when on sale is £80. Only £20 more than the Beauty. If I was looking to purchase a new suction toy I would probably spend that bit extra.

And yes the positive is the USB-C. Which the Pro40 doesn’t have. I did try being fair as much of it is just personal preference.

One thing I will say is the Womanizer boxes are some of the prettiest on the market. I’ve got a really bad habit of collecting sex-toy boxes, I’m building the ultimate rainbow :rofl:

@Stacy2 Phenomenal dress and detailed review, seeing as I’m the kind of guy that does the laundry what’s its wash and care requirements for such a garment?

Funny story actually @Long-John-Silver. I once did a Lovehoney Bra in the washing machine and the under-wire popped through, after speaking with customer care and hearing their advice, I now hand wash all lovehoney lingerie and use only a small drop of Non-Bio. Although I can’t speak for anyone else. And then, let them dry naturally :blush:

Thanks for your review @Stacy2 you look absolutely gorgeous in the dress. Your cleavage is to die for! :smiling_cat_with_heart_eyes: We usually wash bras in Minky bra wash bags, they are zippered little bags and you just fold it up and put it in the bag and zip it up and pop it in the washing machine on a delicate cycle in something like woolite (Sainsbury’s do a good own version and it’s cheaper and better.) and it makes them last longer without the faff of washing in the sink. Hope that helps X.

P.s, don’t put them in the dryer as well just hang on the airer.

Aww thank you @Hannahnim :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

I used to use my nan’s trick of using a pillow case - similar to how I wash trainers on delicate.

But because Lovehoney wouldn’t entertain a refund or replacement because of how I washed it, I now stick to their recommendation. I’d only worn it a few times aswell :sweat_smile:

Aww what a bummer that was a bit mean of them, especially considering how many pictures and reviews you’ve done as well. I’ve been trying to do some reviews recently so once they’re live, I’ll share them on the forum as well! X
