She suggests using this small wand to stimulate both internal and external areas. It's curved to help you reach that "G spot" where nerves are clustered. It offers 10 different intensity levels and several designs.

1. Size

Masturbation may be shocking to some but it is incredibly healthy. Studies have linked it to improved self-esteem, improved energy levels and sleep as well as reduced stress levels, improved sexual health and more. It can be fun and intimate with a partner. This is why it is important to choose one that feels comfortable and fits your lifestyle.

It's not necessary to go big to express your personality. Smaller models offer intense sensations too. Shaped like a bullet or egg, they're discrete and easy to hold. Rachael Schultz the wellness editor at The Good Housekeeping Institute, says they're perfect for beginners. "If you're beginning with sex toys, a petite vibrator that has just three speeds will give you plenty of options for self-exploration," she says. "You can apply it to nipples, the neck and inner thighs or even the clitoris for incredible sensations."

If you're looking for something with more power, consider a longer sex that you can squeeze or use to penetrate your partner during penetrative sex. One of our favorite products is the LELO Dot. It has a precise tip that can be placed in erogenous areas, such as the clitoris or perineum, for intense stimulation. It's also made of a silky-soft, body-safe material and comes in a range of colors to pick from.

The We-Vibe Harmony is another option. It's a C-shaped vibration that fits inside a penis, or dildo. It has two flexible silicone arms which can be used internally as well as externally. The toy is light, waterproof and can be synced to an app that has a companion app for additional options. Be sure to use an water-based fluid to minimize friction when using a toy with a friend or by yourself.

2. Battery life

With a burgeoning sex toy market, finding the perfect vibrator for you can be overwhelming. If you do a little study, you'll discover the right one that will allow you to explore the sensation of vibrating, increase self-esteem and build sexual interest and confidence, according to Hot Octopuss' sex educator Kelly Gordon. "Genital nerve endings were developed to feel vibration," she adds, so vibrators are a must-have tool for any person.

Take into consideration the dimensions and shape of an design when shopping. Many of our favorite options are petite, portable, and easy to use. For instance the We-Vibe Nova 2 is designed for a woman's body with a curvaceous shape and ergonomic handle that fits in the palm of your hand. It's also waterproof, and has seven vibration patterns and six built-in pleasure modes--plus Bluetooth compatibility for remote play with a partner.

The We-Vibe slender, slender device for vibration is a great alternative. It can be used as a massager or a rabbit, based on how you want to use it. The silicone is silky-smooth and the simple 2-button interface minimizes fumbling when you're in a long session. This is a great option if you're looking to share it with a friend or don't have any snooty housemates around.

It makes use of sonic waves to mimic oral sexual sex. This lets you have a non-contact orgasm and a dazzling mix of sensations. The sex is also flexible and the wings slide under your genitals to provide an intense clitoral stimulation. You can also squirt it with lube for even more clitoral action. You'll get up to five hours of battery life per charge, too.

3. Intensity

The ideal vibrator for the majority of people is not too intense. But, there are many options with different intensity levels. Some come with multiple intensities that can be used in a variety of ways, while others offer more targeted clitoral stimulation or internal stimulation. Some come with various patterns that you can change.

A small toy that vibrates is an excellent way to test out different options to get your juices flowing in case you're new to sexual pleasure. If you are aware of the factors that make them go with a good vibrator, a high-quality one can help you achieve an increase in your orgasm when you're masturbating or foreplay.

"Vibrators aid in stimulating the vagina and vulva which stimulates hormones that can lead to orgasm," sexual educator Carol Queen tells Mic. She says that the genital nerves are literally designed to feel vibration. The more you explore your pleasure and use your body more, the better you'll be at identifying what you like, which makes sex more pleasurable.

The buzzy vibrations of the Touch X can be turned up to a high intensity for a long-lasting pleasure experience, or they can be cranked right up at first to help you get to the orgasm earlier. It's also slim and discreet making it ideal for remote travel or to stash in a drawer on your nightstand.

This wand can be easily carried with one hand unlike some other vibration toys that are difficult to control. Additionally, it comes with 10 levels of intensity as well as various patterns for both external and internal stimulation. It can be used in the G-spot or inserted in a more general location like the clit, and it's even a bit flexible, so you can bend and twist it to locate your favorite spots.

4. Patterns

Vibrators were once thought of as sexual toys by sexy perverts who were confined. Since they've been featured in numerous mainstream media productions, and health-based talks shows, it's impossible to deny that more people now have access to and use vibrators than ever before. While that increase in popularity might have something to do with the lifting of the taboo around masturbation, the sheer range of options and features available has definitely also played a role.

Certain vibrators are specially designed for use in the oral region, remote while others can locate your G-spot or clitoris with strong vibrations. Certain vibrators for women are built to move to the music and are a great method of enhancing the dance.

Another aspect to consider is the overall vibe. There is no doubt that women prefer a device that has a captivating design over one that's more utilitarian. This is why many vibrators are in pretty, feminine designs and are wrapped in soft, smooth silicone. And some, like the We-Vibe Nova 2, have a handle that juts from the bottom and is outfitted with an ergonomically-designed grip to make it easier to hold and maneuver.

There are also bullet vibes which are smaller and often have a more subtle feel than wands. Some, such as the ROMP come with the option of a remote control and "squeeze function" that gives you and your partner the ability to regulate the intensity. It's also waterproof, so you can take it with you to the shower or bath to enjoy a relaxing time without hands either on your own or as a couple.

Wearable panty vibrations are finally available. These small, body-safe vibes attach to your underwear and are controlled remotely via a downloadable app on your phone or tablet. They're also easy to clean, and they can be concealed so you don't have to worry about roommates or parents watching.

5. Design

There are many choices when it comes to the design of your vibrator. Some vibrators are designed to appear like wands, and can be easily concealed in your pocket or purse. Others are erotic in shape and designed to stimulate your clitoris and other intimate areas, including the mouth. Still others, like the LELO Enigma an air-based technology that massages and stimulates your clitoris, while simultaneously blowing soothing warm air that can feel even more relaxing than the vibrations alone.

Certain people also have preferences about how they prefer to feel buzzy or rumbly sensations with their vibrator. Buzzy vibrations produce an intense sound and focus stimulation on the surface, while rumbly vibes are more deep and pleasurable. One sex expert says that if you're brand new to sex, the first option is better because it's less intimidating.

A few of our favorite female vibrators come with a combination of external and internal stimulation, like the LELO Dot which received top marks from reviewers for its dual thrusting abilities. The device has an easy interface that has buttons that make it easy to use. This eliminates the need to play around with it when you're on the go for long periods of time. It's also rechargeable, water-resistant and has a lock for travel to ensure it doesn't accidentally switch on in your luggage.

Another alternative is the visually appealing Lovehoney Rose suction toy, which offers plenty of internal stimulation with its Pleasure Air Technology and is designed to nurture your clit with an attractive flower-pot design. The sexy comes with a subtle design that won't attract the attention of your housemates who are naughty. It also has simple controls with only two buttons, making it simple to use by anyone. It's also a great option for couples as the body's flat shape fits perfectly into your love nook and delivers powerful vibrations.
