Play Mini Vibrator 101: Why, when and how to use
Introducing Play Mini Vibrator, a compact curvy vibrator that nestles nicely in your hand and against intimate areas.
Like the rest of the sex toys under the Bloomi Essentials, Play is designed with high-quality, medical-grade silicone, the safest material for toys — so everyone can join in on the exhilarating fun. Below, discover why, when and how using this mini-sized vibrator can elevate your intimate moments and routine(s).
What sets Play apart
You may be thinking, “Wait, isn’t this a bullet vibrator?” Yes, yes it is! However, we at Bloomi have intentionally decided to swap out “bullet” with “mini.” It's important to us that our devices are approachable, shareable and accessible for all body types and intimate experiences — and that includes peoples’ triggers and traumas associated with certain words, like bullet. Plus, “mini” just sounds way cuter, doesn’t it?
Most mini vibes are made with ABS plastic or latex, which can feel rigid when pressed against the body. In contrast, Play, like all of our devices, is made with medical-grade silicone, which makes it both the healthiest option for intimate skin and offers a soft, bendable shape.
Lastly, mini vibrators on the market typically have a small, rounded or flat “tip” to stimulate the clitoral surface. We didn’t want to limit your pleasure moments, so after gathering rounds of community feedback from people with penises and people with vulvas, we designed a multi-use mini vibrator with a powerful motor that can be held however and placed wherever.
Play is:
Made with medical-grade silicone: Medical-grade silicone is non-porous, meaning there are no small holes, which prevents the collection of dirt or bacteria. Even more, it’s hypoallergenic, making it safe for those with latex or vinyl allergies.
Phthalate-free: Most toys on the market are not made with 100% body-safe materials. In fact, many include phthalates, which are known to be a reproductive toxicant. But you don’t have to worry about that with Play, as it is phthalate-free.
Waterproof: Its soft silicone material is waterproof and easy to wash with warm water and unscented soap. You can also use it in the tub or shower, worry-free.
USB-rechargeable: A full charge with our USB charging cable allows up to one hour of continuous use.
Compatible with latex and water-based lubricants: Pair Play with a water-based lubricant, like Smooth, for comfortable insertion and/or stimulation. We also suggest using an external condom or dental dam if you’re sharing your toy with a new sexual partner. Note: Play is not compatible with oil-based products.
Why you should use Play
Whether you’re a beginner or a vibe connoisseur, a mini-size vibrator is a great tool to keep in your pleasure chest. It’s compact, making it an excellent travel companion, and powerful, making it a discreet alternative to larger vibrators.
If you need a reason to add a vibrator to your cart, here's one: Vibrators can help strengthen intimacy within your relationships, including with yourself and/or your partner(s). These sex toys allow you to explore something new, build novelty and motivate you to invite more pleasure into your day-to-day routine(s).
When to use Play
There are no limits when it comes to play time. You can incorporate Play into solo masturbation sessions first thing in the morning, in the shower, right before bed or on your next vacation. In fact, Play is small enough to store in your makeup bag. No one at TSA will ever know, trust.
Here’s one idea: Use Play with your partner(s) to create a fun opportunity to practice sexual communication and explore new sensations together. If holding onto a larger vibrator during intimate moments becomes distracting to either you or your partner, Play is a smaller, discreet solution. It's small enough to keep in your hand discreetly so that you can stimulate the clitoris during penetration or foreplay.
How to use Play
Play was designed with all intimate areas in mind, and we want to ensure you and your partner(s) get the most out of its features. Play’s rounded sides (on either end) feel nice to stimulate or run along the body while the slightly curved side nestles on the clitoris or anus for a more focused stimulation. Its powerful motor and settings allows you to use any end of the toy for feel-good sensations.
Step 1 - Charge Play
Get into the habit of charging your toy right after play time. This will maximize your toy’s performance and lifetime.
Step 2 - Get to know Play
Use Play’s instruction manual as a guide while you play with the settings. We suggest trying different settings on your inner forearm to discover the ones that best fit your personal needs.
Step 3 - Add a lube
Apply a water-based lubricant, like Smooth, on your intimate areas and Play. Try rubbing the toy on your intimate areas while the vibration settings are off. Immediately placing the toy on the clitoris or anus while the toy is vibrating can feel slightly uncomfortable if the body is not fully aroused or relaxed.
Step 4 - Clean up and store
We recommend cleaning up with warm water and our foaming wash Cleanse. Cleanse is gentle enough to use on both your toy and externally on your intimate areas. Once dry, store Play in its travel bag to keep it from exposed bacteria.
