So what are the best sex toys to take on your travels?

Featuring a powerful motor with 10 different vibration modes at varying intensity levels, it's no wonder that the Rosebud Clitoral Suction Stimulator was Shelby‘s top sex toy, “For my anatomy, the clitoral suction toys are very stimulating,” she says. Its real charm is in its unbelievable ability to offer such a large variety of tantalising vibration patterns in such a compact form. This clit sucker certainly packs a punch and its small dimensions mean you can easily pack it in your bag ready for your travels.

Measuring up at less than 3 x 3 inches, this petite clitoral stimulator fits perfectly into the palm of your hand. And that was one of Shelby’s favourite features! The Rosebud being palm-sized was a massive advantage, “what I really appreciated about the rose was the accessibility with holding it ... its super easy to hold on to and manoeuvre” meaning users have a greater degree of control.

The Rosebud's unique design also deserves a mention. Crafted of ultra-soft silicone and featuring a gorgeously unique rose style design, this clitoral sucker is a master of discretion. Pretty in pink, this sex toy offers nothing less than good vibrations in the form of a small rose which could easily be mistaken for a piece of makeup or any other miscellaneous handbag item.

On top of that, the Rosebud differs from other clitoral stimulators due to its large flat surface area, which Shelby highly approved of. “I really appreciate the surface space because it reaches more parts of my vulva and stimulates my clitoris to even further an extent than just hyper-focusing on just ‘the button’” she says. So Shelby found that the Rosebud covered more of her erogenous zones, whereas typical clitoral suckers tend to focus primarily on direct, pinpoint precision contact with the sweet spot itself. For some, however, this targeted stimulation can overstimulate the nerve endings and feel too intense. The Rosebud avoids this by delivering climax-inducing sucking sensations to the areas encompassing the clitoris too, diffusing the strength of the sensations.

Typically a fan of clitoral stimulation when it comes to solo play, Shelby is the perfect toy tester when it comes to the Rosebud and her final review of 10/10 speaks for itself.

Next up, we spoke about another pocket rocket, in the form of the We-Vibe Tango X Cherry, a discreet orgasm-inducing bullet vibrator disguised in a lipstick-style shape. In Shelby’s own words, this bullet vibe was the most discreet of the 3 as “it barely looked like a sex toy”. Of course for Shelby, discretion isn‘t that much of a deal-breaker when it comes to picking her next travel-friendly vibe, “if I got checked at the airport I would have no shame about this because this is my entire job” she says chuckling away, ”but most people might be a little embarrassed, so it’s nice to have something on such a discreet level.”

As well as holding up on the discretion front, Shelby was impressed by the versatility of the We-Vibe Tango X Cherry and its suitability for first-timers. “Those types of more simple vibes are great for beginners and great for experiencing pleasure all over the body in different erogenous zones.” That's right, the We-Vibe Tango is also perfect for a spot of nipple play should you be so inclined and works wonders, deliciously heightening the sensitivity of all erogenous zones.

The cherry on the cake when it comes to this sweet rumbling sensation is the way it lends itself perfectly to both solo and couple play. “It's the perfect size to throw anywhere” Shelby states, “if you like to get into complex positions with your partner, I think the We-Vibe Tango is great to have as you can place it right next to any area you‘re trying to stimulate on each other”.

So, easy handling in all sorts of positions, ideal for beginners and a master of discretion. We’d have to agree with Shelby’s conclusions then, ”you can't go wrong with a vibe like that, it's so versatile!”

Finally, we picked Shelby's brains on the sublime Stronic Petite Mini Pulsator Vibrator. Perfectly sized for all levels of experience at just 4 insertable inches, this toy is the embodiment of ease and pleasure, demonstrating that good things come in all sized packages - especially petite. “I really appreciated the size” Shelby states, “some folks are like ... ’size matters’, for me I kinda like what some people would call average or boyfriend dick. Not too big, not too small, just the right size where it’s hitting all the angles I want” So it seems we‘ve found the goldilocks-esque ‘just right’ sized toy in the Stronic Mini Pulsator and its “perfect size“ according to our lovely pleasure expert is only one of its best features.

With its 5 speeds and 3 vibration patterns, this mini vibe allows for exciting experimentation. Once turned on, firm yet supple velvet-textured silicone pushes back and forth, delivering both a sensationally slow build-up of intensity and a sensual internal massage. Designed with a hands-free experience in mind, its wavy rippled and ridged texture means it holds in place allowing you to busy your hands elsewhere whilst it provides incredible g spot stimulation.

As an advocate for experimentation and discovering your preferences, Shelby mentioned that with the Stronic, she explored sensations both internally and externally, sharing that “the ridges were a very nice touch... internally they feel so great.“

The Stronic continues on its travel-friendly charm offensive boasting a secure travel lock feature and whisper-quiet function. Shelby highlights how the benefits of these features apply even to short-distance travel adding, “even if you‘re not travelling internationally or going on a flight, sticking a vibe into your bag or purse and going over to your partner's house, you don‘t wanna be on a train or in an uber and have it be going off.” Similarly “if you‘re travelling, staying in hostels or thin-walled hotel rooms, I think its really nice to have that”

So it seems this penetrative self-thrusting g spot vibrator is one of those sex toys you can’t live without once you‘ve tried it. A strong contender for a loyal travel companion.
