15 Best Sex Toys of 2024
Don’t be deceived by its size – this petite vibrator stimulates the clitoris with a powerful tapping sensation, with the help of three speeds and six vibration patterns. Our in-house team of reviewers has collectively tried over 500 sex toys—the ones we featured here are amongst their tried-and-true faves. We also asked sex educators and therapists to share the products that have been the biggest game-changers in their clients’ and patients’ solo and partnered sex lives. The final list only includes options that earned two enthusiastic thumbs up. Our favorite palm vibe, the Le Wand Point, has a sleek stainless steel handle and an uber-soft ridged silicone tip. The heavier steel end allows the toy to provide more pressure than an all-silicone option , Finn previously told SELF.
Many sexual health experts suggest people having these issues use a vibrator to help them achieve orgasm more easily. “Sex toys come into direct contact with bodily fluids, bacteria, and potential pathogens, so without proper cleaning, they can harbor bacteria, viruses, and fungi, significantly increasing the risk of infections,” she says. Cleaning your toys after use also helps them work properly and last longer, she adds. There’s more to this beginner-friendly grinder from Cute Little Fuckers than meets the eye. The smiling star design “provides a [wide] variety of sensations and textures, which makes this a great external vibe and grinding toy, no matter the shape of your bits,” Finn previously told SELF.

If your vibrator isn’t made out of quality material or all that easy to clean, you probably won’t be reaching for it all that much, even if you’re horny 24/7. Simply put, if you’re regularly putting something near, on, or in your genitals, you’ll want to make sure that something is safe and that it can take a nice thorough clean after. This might mean that you stay away from those mildly sketchy super cheap vibrators and invest a little more, which doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll have to sacrifice affordability. Sex toys can be made from lots of different materials—some are porous, while others are non-porous.

It’s incredibly important to keep your sex toys hygienic, and luckily it’s really simple to do so.
