How to use a vibrator for the first time

• Our number one tip is to make time for yourself when using a vibrator for the first time - don't rush your pleasure. Choose a time when you don't have to worry about rushing out to do things. If you live with family or friends then we would advise going for a time when you're home alone to avoid any unwanted interruptions.

• Create an atmosphere that gets you relaxed and in the mood. We love lighting a candle, turning off the lights and playing some music. Find what works for you and create that sensual space. 

• You may want to read an erotic story online or watch some ethical porn (Bellesa is great for this) to warm things up. If you'd rather leave it to your imagination then put away your laptop and switch off your phone to minimise distractions. 

• Use lube. We can't stress this enough. Lube will transform your vibrator experience by making your vibrator glide over you, heightening pleasure and avoiding any potential discomfort. Most water-based lubes work well with toys, but always check your vibrator material and the lubricant most compatible with it.
