BUYING A DILDO FOR BEGINNERS – THE MOST IMPORTANT POINTS AT A GLANCE

As a beginner, you don't need to be overwhelmed by the stress of making a choice. Here are the 7 most important things to consider when buying your first dildo:

1. 📏 SIZE: SMALL IS OKAY

If this is your first dildo, choose a smaller model. You don't have to go for something large right away. A length of 12-16 cm and a narrow diameter is perfect to start with. Comfort is paramount.

Tip : Use a measuring tape or compare it to an object to get a realistic idea of ​​the size.

2. 🌸 MATERIAL: SAFE AND BODY-FRIENDLY

Choose a dildo made from body-safe materials such as:

  • Silicone (soft touch) – flexible, hypoallergenic and easy to clean
  • Glass (borosilicate) – smooth, sturdy and hygienic (only if you dare)
  • ABS plastic or TPE – often cheaper,

Avoid toys made of jelly or rubber without a quality mark – they may contain plasticizers.

3. 💧 LUBRICANT: A MUST FOR COMFORT

Always use a good lubricant. A water-based lubricant is recommended for silicone dildos. This prevents friction and makes the experience more pleasant and safe.

4. 🎯 INTENDED USE: G-SPOT, VAGINAL, ANAL?

What do you want to use the dildo for?

  • Vaginal? Choose a straight or slightly curved model
  • G-spot? Choose a curved dildo with a thicker tip.
  • Anal ? Make sure the base is flared so it can't slip through.

5. 🤍 WITH OR WITHOUT SUCTION CUP?

A suction cup gives you extra possibilities. You can attach your dildo to a smooth surface and enjoy hands-free play. Not essential for beginners, but worth considering!

6. 👩❤️👨 SOLO OR WITH PARTNER?

If you want to experiment with a partner, choose a model that's comfortable for both of you. Consider a strap-on compatible dildo or a double-ended model, for example.

7. 🧼 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Hygiene is crucial. Choose a dildo that's easy to clean with warm water and a mild toy cleaner . Store your dildo in a clean, dry place—preferably in a separate bag.

SAFETY TIPS FOR BEGINNERS

  • Use condoms when sharing a dildo with your partner
