Sex Toys, Vibrators and Adult Toys | goop
The vibrator that feels like oral sex. The vibrator that’s made for deep internal stimulation. The one that does both, all while allowing a partner to control it remotely via your private app invitation. We’re living through a vibrator and sex toy renaissance: If there’s a sensation your vulva dreams of, it probably just hit the market in the form of a chic, body-safe silicone massager. And that’s just the (proverbial) tip.
Of course, not all sex toys are created equal—and as with all things sex and desire, everyone is different. We’ve included the ones we love most, organized by their most salient function, so you can choose which best suit your pleasure. Also included below: our favorite lubes, prostate stimulators, BDSM-friendly jewelry, and more sex toys to guarantee your world is rocked, every time.
Vibrators for External Stimulation
THE DOUBLE-SIDED WAND VIBRATOR
Wands provide a powerful rumbly external vibration, which is good for those who need more stimulation to get off. One end of this powerful toy has a wonder-ball with deep, rumbly vibrations for external stimulation. On the other side, a flexible end provides powerful and precise vibration for targeted clitoral stimulation. (You can use the slim end to penetrate one to three inches; it feels especially good pressed against the vagina’s front wall.) Each end of the wand offers eight pulsating patterns that vary in intensity, with subtle, ergonomically placed controls for uninterrupted navigation. It’s designed for safe bath and shower play. And it has an LED battery display so you never have to experience your vibrator losing charge in the heat of the moment.
THE VULVA VIBRATOR
If this sounds like a vague category, allow us to explain: The Ballerina is designed to fit in your palm and be placed on your vulva, with the narrower end positioned at the tip of your clitoris and the wider end on your vaginal opening. A silicone gel coating makes its texture squishable enough that you could indent it with your finger—which gives it a next-level feel that’s almost as good in your hand as it is on the clitoris and labia.
THE ULTRAFLEXIBLE VIBRATOR
Pom’s soft, flexible body sits comfortably in the palm of your hand, providing targeted clitoral stimulation.
It’s built to bend and move—just apply pressure with your fingers and it’ll bend, hugging close. (It’s
slightly smaller than the Ballerina, for context.)
THE VIBRATOR THAT FEELS
LIKE A TONGUE
You might not be able to tell from this picture, but the tip of the French Lover has a very thin soft silicone
tip designed to mimic the feeling of a tongue. Which means it’s great for stimulating not just the clitoris
but any erogenous zone—the flexible end lightly vibrates and can be flicked around for a delicate licking
sensation. It’s a great sex toy for a teasing buildup and for those who are sensitive to strong pressure.
THE HANDS-FREE VIBRATOR
Designed for partner sex, Eva II has flexible “wings” that are meant to be tucked under the labia to help
hold the vibrator in place so that all hands are free to support body weight or do whatever else you’d like
them to do. It might take some practice and adjusting to find the right position—pull one labium (lip) over
one wing at a time. It’s also a good solo option if you don’t like the feeling of vibrations on
your hand.
THE CLITORAL AND LABIA MASSAGE VIBRATOR
Named for its flame-shaped tip, The Firefighter gives strong and focused stimulation to the clit—and carries that
vibration to the labia. Four speeds and two pulsation modes help you build arousal, while the main groove puts
pressure right where you want it.
THE PULSE-AND-SUCTION VIBRATOR
The Womanizer feels a lot like oral sex. How it works: Turn it on and place the stimulation head over the
clitoris to form a seal—we recommend doing so with a water- or aloe-based lube—and let it do its thing. (That
thing: emitting pulses of air and light vibrations that create a sucking sensation around the clitoris.) It
fits nicely in the palm of your hand and is nearly effortless to operate. This is especially true if you turn
it on autopilot, which switches up the vibration patterns and intensity to mimic the variation of partnered
oral sex.
THE TAPPING TOY
Instead of vibrating, this toy makes a tapping motion with the small, motorized tip under its silicone surface. (Lora DiCarlo toys are engineered to approximate different kinds of human touch—in this case, the tapping of a finger.) Carezza runs at ten speeds: The slowest is great for warming up, and the fastest will take you to the finish line.
THE FINGER VIBRATOR
Finger vibrators, like the Fin, are designed to be effortless, feel natural to wear, and not distract from
the moment. Just slide your pointer and middle fingers along the grooves and change the intensity with the
power button on top.
THE DOUBLE-MOTOR VIBRATOR
Le Wand’s Double Vibe is perfectly palm-size with bunny ears designed to nestle between your labia and hug your clitoris. Each ear contains its own powerful motor, and the ears are flexible enough to pinch around the clitoris (or nipples) for a super close fit. There’s an optional ribbed silicone sleeve you can slip over them, too, for a different sensation.
THE WEARABLE VIBRATOR
Place Moxie on the inside of your underwear, secure it with the magnetic clip, and get at it hands-free. To control the vibrations, choose from either the handheld remote (great for solo sessions) or the We-Connect app on your phone, which lets you link up with a partner on the app so they can tease you from any distance.
Vibrators for Internal Stimulation
THE G-SPOT VIBRATOR
Obviously, all internal stimulators can also be used for targeted external stimulation; that’s just not their main selling point. Located close to the root of your clitoris, your G-spot is stimulated internally, typically by applying persistent stroking pressure against the front vaginal wall after you’re already aroused. We designed this tricked-out take on a G-spot stimulator to maximize pleasure: It’s curved at the perfect angle. Dual-density silicone gives the tip an ultraplush feeling. And a self-heating function gently warms the vibrator to just above body temperature to promote blood flow and muscle relaxation.
THE RIBBED INTERNAL VIBRATOR
If you like the idea of a G-spot vibrator but want the added sensation of ridges that provide unique internal
sensations when moved in and out of the (sensitive) vaginal entrance, there’s the Romantic.
Vibrators for Internal and External Stimulation
THE RABBIT-SHAPED VIBRATOR
This riff on a classic is made with longer “ears” designed to provide constant contact both internally and
externally as you move. Its long head is firm and adjustable, which allows you to shape the angle just right for
internal pressure points, and the short head bends, which keeps it on your clitoris as you explore different
levels of penetration. Each head has its own motor that you can control independently. It also has an associated
app, where you can program custom patterns, and you can invite a partner to join—from across the room or across
the globe—and operate the Nova 2 remotely for you.
THE AIR-PULSE-AND-
PENETRATION COMBO
This dual-stimulation vibrator is made with an air-pulsing mouth that creates sucking sensations around the clitoris and an internal stimulation head that targets pressure points on the front vaginal wall. Insert the internal stimulation head into your vagina first, and then fit the mouth of the external one over the clitoris. The internal head hits the right balance between firm and flexible, so it’s easy to get the positioning right, and it’s designed to vibrate in sync with the device’s clitoral suction, which feels incredible.
Bullet Vibrators
THE SILICONE BULLET VIBRATOR
Bullet-shaped vibrators are popular sex toys—they’re easy to use, and thus good for first-time explorers. Externally,
the rounded tip feels good for targeted stimulation. You can also flatten the length of the vibrator against the
vulva for a broader, less-intense sensation. For internal stimulation, hold it by its end to insert it into the
vagina; it feels especially good pressed against the front wall.
THE DISCREET VIBRATOR
The Wink+ is made of smooth stainless steel, which provides a different sensation from that of regular plastic
or silicone vibrators. And it comes with an optional silicone cap, in case that’s what you’re after today. But
its most distinguishing characteristic is that it looks like a mascara tube.
THE CLASSIC BULLET VIBRATOR
This eighteen-karat-gold-plated bullet vibrator is compact, discreet, and shaped just right for pinpointed clitoral stimulation. The inside is stainless steel, so it has a satisfying weight to it. And it gives you ten (powerful, deep, rumbly) vibration modes—five steady intensities and five patterns—to play with.
THE REMOTE-CONTROL
BULLET VIBRATOR
Play solo or hand the remote control to a partner: The Lyla 2 comes with a motion-activated remote. Just tip the remote from completely horizontal—where the vibrator’s power will run at 10 percent of its max—toward vertical, where it reaches maximum intensity. You can also drop the remote entirely and cycle through Lyla’s six preprogrammed vibration patterns by clicking the power button on the bullet itself. Or if you’re feeling daring, slip Lyla in as you would a tampon, get dressed, and let your partner control your pleasure as you go about your day.
Non-Vulva Vibrators
THE WARMING VIBRATING PLUG
Tilt has two independently controlled motors—one in the plug end for stimulation of the G-spot or the prostate, and another on the longer, outer arm that can be used to stimulate the clitoris or the perineum. The sensation of the vibrations isn’t like a typical buzzing; it’s more of a deep thrumming, radiating sensation. The vibrator is designed to lie very flat to the body when it’s inserted. And at the touch of a button, it warms to just above your body’s temperature to encourage blood flow, which can help your body relax and also encourage an erection in either a penis or a clitoris.
THE VIBRATING COCK RING
The perfect cock ring should be comfortable, which means it needs to be not too tight and also have a vibration that’s not violently rumbly. Verge is comfortable and fits around the penis and testicles—you’ll want to put it on before getting hard. To stimulate the perineum, position the toy downward, and you’ll experience pressure on your perineum with each thrust. For a different sensation, you can position the stimulator upward, which would also stimulate the clitoris of a partner during penetrative sex. You can control Verge’s vibration settings manually via the power buttons on the side or connect by Bluetooth in the We-Vibe app.
Kink-Friendly Accessories
VIBRATING NECKLACE
Here for the transition from night out to night in: This pretty, bullet-shaped pendant is made of stainless
steel, finished in twenty-four-karat gold, and completely waterproof (so it’s easy to clean). And it looks great
layered with other necklaces and with whatever you’re wearing. Or not wearing.
THE BLINDFOLD
The butter-soft leather overlay gives this padded eye mask an edge. And the mask provides complete blackout—which makes it an excellent foundation for other erotic surprises.
Tools for Pelvic-Floor Connection
HIGH-TECH TRAINER
Elvie is a small, smooth, waterproof pod that you slip in just as you would a tampon. Via Bluetooth, the pod
links to the Elvie app, which tracks your progress through gamelike five-minute pelvic floor exercises. If
you’re interested in strengthening your pelvic floor but unsure how to do it consistently, this makes it pretty
simple.
the pelvic clock
Developed by a former Olympic rhythmic gymnastics coach, the Pelvic Clock is designed to help increase flexibility in the lumbar spine, improve hip mobility and alignment, relax tight hip flexors, and strengthen the core. You lie down with the Pelvic Clock under your sacrum, warm up your hips with some gentle stretches, then repeat a series of exercises with simple instructions based on the face of the clock, like rocking your hips from three o’clock to nine.
YONI EGG
Another way to approach a Kegel-like physical practice, if crystals and energy healing are your jam: Insert the
egg into your vagina and feel the connection with your body by squeezing and releasing the egg. You might begin
with a ten-minute session, if comfortable; build up a practice if it brings joy.
Lubricants and Massage Oils
WATER-BASED LUBE
Water-based lubes are what you want to use with rubber latex, polyurethane, and polyisoprene condoms and
toys. (Oils compromise the efficacy and integrity of latex condoms and can degrade some sex toys over time.)
MASSAGE OIL
One could argue that the key to a good massage is an ultrahydrating oil that lends a silky quality to every
touch. Province Apothecary’s blend of coconut oil, sunflower-seed oil, and vitamin E does just that—and it
smells amazing. The delicate mix of bergamot, clary sage, ylang-ylang, rose, and jasmine is sensual and
relaxing.
OIL-BASED LUBE
This luxurious bedroom oil is made with coconut and sunflower-seed oils. It’s also infused with vitamin E,
evening primrose oil, and rosemary leaf extract. It’s the most hydrating intimate oil we know of and gives
just the right amount of slip once applied to skin.
MASSAGE CANDLE
Here’s a remarkable invention: a candle that doubles as a luxurious treatment for skin. Light the candle and the blend of argan, coconut, and shea butter melts into a nourishing oil that leaves skin moisturized, nourished, and soft. (You can pour the melted candle directly onto skin—it’s warm and soothing.)
THE LUBE WARMER
This small but mighty device delivers a uniformly measured dollop of warmed water-based lubricant into your
fingers. All you do is pop in one of the accompanying Pulse pods, press a button, wait a minute, and hold your
fingers under the dispenser for two seconds. (If you’ve ever handled a lube bottle that’s gotten lubed up
itself, you’ll appreciate this feature.) The warmer automatically turns off an hour after last use, and it has a
locking function so that it never goes off when you don’t want it to.
Conversation Starters
PROMPTS FOR PARTNERS
It may not be a toy, but it is a tool: This journal is designed to be picked up right after sex. In each entry,
you fill out a set of prompts—first one that you and your partner fill out individually, then another that you
do together. You reflect on what felt best, what you each want out of play, and how you’re growing together. If
talking about sex ever feels awkward, the journal includes a guide to managing those feelings, too. End goal?
Greater openness, deeper intimacy, and a bit of silliness.
PLEASURE GAME
Loaded with conversation prompts for you and an intimate partner, these cards make a game out of falling deeper in love. They’re perfect for cozy nights in (and any other time you want to feel close to your partner).
More support
SUPPLEMENT
Everyday stress and anxiety, hormonal fluctuations, and fatigue can all impact female libido and sexual health. Which is why we formulated DTF with three key ingredients to support healthy sexual function, vitality, and mood in women. First up, Libifem® fenugreek extract, which has been clinically studied to support healthy sexual arousal and desire in women and provide support for symptoms of menopause. Next, shatavari, an adaptogenic herb traditionally used in Ayurveda to support female health. And for mood support, saffron extract.*
SEX PILLOW
Made of soft foam (with a removable, machine-washable cover), it looks like a regular throw pillow when you
want it to. But when you need it, the wedge shape helps you hit the perfect angle.
In the Name of Ridiculous But Awesome
GOLD RUSH
Yes, this is a twenty-four-karat-gold dildo. It’s sculpted with a rounded end for deep penetration and a
flattened end for clitoral stimulation. You can think of the Olga as the Aston Martin of sex toys: super sleek,
dripping in luxury, built for performance, and you’d feel f*cking cool driving one.
