How to Warm Up Your Sex Toys
For self-heating vibrators and dildos, the answer to this question is simple – press the button, wait a bit, and voila – you’re good to go.
If you already have a collection of dildos that you don’t like using cold, you may have to get creative.
Hot water is always a good choice – it’s convenient and affordable. Most sex toy owners rely on this trick to get their favorites feeling warm and cozy. The problem with using hot water is that you don’t have enough control over how heated your dildo or vibe will get. Plus (and obviously), the trick isn’t compatible with items that aren’t waterproof.
Some people have been known to put their sex toys in the oven at low heat, but the risks linked to this approach are obvious.
Believe it or not, sex toy heaters are an actual thing. These products look like a pocket or a pouch you stick your sex toy into to get it warm. Most of these are quite affordable. They give you precise control over the degrees you’re going to achieve.
Whichever approach you choose, research and ensure that the heating method is compatible with your dildo or vibrator specifications. When in doubt, get in touch with the manufacturer. You don’t want to improvise and ruin an expensive item just because you’ve wanted to enjoy some heat.
Other Ways to Get a Warming Sensation
If you feel that getting your sex toys heated is too much work, there are a few alternatives to test out.
Heating lube is a quick and easy choice. The friction when using a sex toy or being penetrated will get the lube heated. Many people who have tried heating (or cooling) lube swear by it and enjoy the sensation.
To make such a product safe, always test it on your skin before slapping a liberal amount on your genitals. Make sure there’s no irritation or unpleasant reaction. The ingredients used to give the heating sensation (like ginger or cinnamon, for example) can sometimes cause sensitivities or even allergic reactions.
Massage oils can also deliver a warming sensation. Make sure that your chosen product is also recommended for internal use.
Finally, you can use regular lube warmed up before being applied. Putting the tube in a bucket filled with hot water will do the trick. That’s a simple, inexpensive and effective way to get the warming sensation without worrying about your favorite dildo or vibe.
Final Thoughts
If you don’t feel like warming up your sex toys or you’d like to try something different, give heated sex toys a try. Not only is it nice to use something that’s as warm as your body, the heat helps you relax and experience more pleasure.
With an added heating element inside the sex toy, there’s more room for error. That’s why you don’t want to go with a cheap toy. And by cheap, we mean a poorly constructed one. There are heated dildos that are reasonably priced and that perform exceptionally well.
