Vibrators Are Great for:

• Stimulating the clitoris
• Stimulating vagina and vulva
• Enhancing male masturbation e.g. vibrating cock rings, vibrating sleeves
• Enhancing sex between you and your partner
• Stimulating lightly the anal region without penetration
• Stimulating nipples
• Reaching an orgasm faster
• BDSM playing

Generally, you can use a vibrator on any erogenous area of your body to boost pleasure. Besides its obvious uses, you can also use a vibrator for sexual health purposes.

Some studies have found that women who use vibrators regularly suffer from less pelvic pain and urinary incontinence. The use of a vibrator may also treat erectile dysfunction in men.

Types of Vibrators in Malaysia

In Malaysia, vibrators are available in various shapes, shades, and intensity modes. The most common types of vibrators, based on their target area include:

External. External vibrators are designed for use on external organs such as the clitoris, vulva, nipples, or scrotum. They are usually smaller than internal vibrators and have a simple vibrating mode. They also tend to cost less.

Internal. Internal vibrators, as their name suggests, are for internal organ use e.g. vagina or anus. Their size is usually medium (6-8” long) or large (9”+ long) and up to 3” thick. They resemble the shape of a dildo or penis.

Combo. Combo vibrators are intended for both external and internal use. They have more features compared to simple external or internal vibrators. For instance, you can use a hybrid/combo vibrator to stimulate your clitoris and your vaginal G-spot at the same time.

Based on intensity level, vibrators come in:

Single vibration mode. Vibrators with a single vibration mode come with only one default level of vibration (typically medium intensity). They usually cost less than multiple-level vibrators and are great for beginners.

Multiple level/adjustable intensity. Vibrators with many levels have at least 2 levels of intensity. You can adjust the level of intensity by pressing a button an X number of times or rotation. Due to their multiple intensity levels, these vibrators also tend to cost more.

Based on their shape, vibrators also come in bullet, dildo/penis, wand, pen, micro, egg, or tongue shape among others. You may also find vibrators with a hybrid shape for varied uses.

Vibrator Material Comparison

Vibrators are typically made of silicone, thermoplastic rubber, metal, and/or a combination of the above.

Here is a breakdown of each material:

Silicone. Silicone is currently the most common sex toy material. Silicone vibrators produce a more tingly vibration compared to others. Silicone may consist of 100% of the vibrator’s material or be added as a coating. Due to its non-porous texture, it is highly resistant to pathogens e.g. bacteria. It is also easy to clean and maintain. The only cons of silicone are its higher price and incompatibility with silicone-based lubricants.

Thermoplastic/soft rubber. Thermoplastic rubber is a special type of rubber produced for added elasticity and flexibility. It is much softer and more flexible compared to silicone. Soft rubber vibrators are also cheaper compared to other materials. They are, however, porous and that makes them more prone to bacteria, fungi, or virus infections.

Metal. Metal vibrators are usually made of stainless steel, aluminium, or other metals. They are extra firm and durable with heat-retaining properties. For instance, you can heat them in a water or ice-cold bath for a more intense sensation. They are also very hygienic and easy to clean. On the downside, they can be expensive and too rigid/firm for some people.

How to Choose the Right Vibrator in Malaysia

Choosing the right vibrator depends on your desired level of intensity, the material, safety standards, and your budget. There is no single vibrator that works for everyone.

We, therefore, recommended the following types of vibrators in Malaysia for different user needs:

• For a flexible, long-lasting and easy-to-clean product, go for a 100% silicone vibrator.
• For starters, a small silicone or soft rubber vibrator with a single vibrating mode is a great choice.
• For more advanced users, a metal or silicone-based vibrator with multiple vibration levels would work.
• For those looking for something firm and long-lasting with heat-retention abilities, a metal vibrator is a top choice.
• For those looking for a fully intense and varied sexual experience, a combo feature vibrator e.g. with a suction mode would suffice.

Now, if your budget is tight and you are not allergic to rubber, you can buy a soft rubber or PVC-based vibrator. Otherwise, you may invest in a silicone or metal vibrator.

How to Make the Most of Your Vibrator

Your vibrator is a great tool for enhancing your sexual pleasure either solo or with your partner.

However, using a vibrator boils down to your individual and/or partner’s preferences. So feel free to experiment, set the mood, and play as you like.

If you looking for more direction, here are some tips that will help:

• Start with a bullet or mini vibrator. Bigger and more complex vibrators may be too overwhelming for starters. If you are using a vibrator for the first time, it’s best to start with something small or simple.
• Make sure you power your vibrator properly. If you want to enjoy your vibrator for a long, make sure you use the right batteries or charge it properly. Read the package instructions or manual to check the exact power source. You don’t want a vibrator that will die off after a few seconds or stop working altogether.
• Set the atmosphere. Whether you use your vibrator alone or with a partner, setting the mood will take your sexual pleasure to new heights. So spray some arousing smell around the room, light a candle, and wear your sexy lingerie to get in the right mood.

• Switch between different intensities. If your vibrator has multiple intensity levels, switch between at least three levels for a more varied and intense sensation. For instance, set at low for a few seconds, then at high, then at a medium level, etc. We suggest a cycle of 8-10 seconds for each level before switching to another.

• Clean your vibrator after use. Neglecting to clean/disinfect your vibrator may put you at a high risk of infection. Some waterproof models allow washing and rinsing with water and soap. Alternatively, you can use alcohol-free or natural wipes to wipe them clean. In any case, make sure to read the cleaning instructions on the package.
