The bullet vibrator – the one that will always come through for you. Pun very much intended.
If you only have one vibrator, chances are it’s a bullet. There’s a reason why; it’s reliable and can deliver an orgasm every time. Not all of these little power players are made equal.
Below, I will cover differences and the best way to take advantage of everything your bullet vibrator might have to offer.
How to use a bullet vibrator
The obvious first question is, are you using the bullet with a partner, or are you on a solo mission? Then you can consider where you’re using it and how experienced you (and a partner?) might already be with toys. Finally, consider how many bells and whistles you’re looking for in your new toy.
One woman wolf-pack
Masturbation is more fun with accessories, and the bullet vibrator is a perennial favorite for a reason.
Since bullet vibrators are small and often pointed at the end, they’re great for direct stimulation to your clitoris. If you’re particularly goal-oriented or short on time, that’s a fantastic trait.
If you’re shooting for quality over quantity or speed, rubbing the vibrator all over your vulva and getting a good build-up in addition to finding some new favorite spots will help slowly build your orgasm, which can increase the intensity.
It doesn’t always have to be just the tip, either. Instead of focused sensations, turning your bullet vibrator sideways can increase the pleasure. If direct clit stimulation is too much for you, this is a delightful way to get a slow climb to the main event.
The best way to include your bullet vibrator in your solo pre-game is to consider any other area where that thrum might feel good. Try rubbing the vibe against your breasts and nipples, or inner thighs to see where those sensations can help the build-up.
Playing with friends
Accessories aren’t just for your favorite outfits. The bullet vibrator can pave the way to achieving orgasms during vaginal intercourse. Having a bullet vibrator can add some fuel to the fire even if it’s just ordinary missionary sex. A lot of women can’t orgasm through penetration alone, and that’s where bullet vibrators come into the picture.
If you and your partner are new to toys and don’t typically get very spicy, bullet vibrators are a sure-fire way to dip a toe in the water. They’re small, unobtrusive, and very easy to slip in between the two of you so you can get the clitoral stimulation that you need while still enjoying the penetration.
If you’re ready to graduate to the next level, using a bullet along with another toy like a cock ring allows you to harness the power handsfree. For this, you’re going to want to select a bullet that is standard sized and uniformly shaped to fit into a cock ring or get a cock ring equipped with a bullet vibrator.
Just because your bullet vibrator is a staple, doesn’t mean it can’t guest star in some of your more adventuresome bedroom activities. You can take any of your more taboo fantasies and go wild with your bullet. For example, if you’ve always wanted to try bondage, have your partner tie you up and see how much pleasure they can bring you with your humble bullet.
Speeding to the finish line
In my opinion, the very first thing to consider in any bullet vibrator is whether there are variable speeds. Having the option to speed it up or slow it down is the difference between an orgasm and a great orgasm.
The best way to use your variable speed bullet vibrator is when you have some time to explore and see what works best for you. Turn it up and down and get to know what speed is going to move your needle. There’s a wide range of options available from three to 10 speeds and up.
Another feature is the type of vibration available. Your most basic bullet vibrator might have one or three speeds in a buzz, but higher-end models will have ten speeds at three different types of sensations.
Location, Location, Location
Whether you’re going to use your bullet with or without a partner, it’s important to remember where you want to be able to use it.
One of the best ways to use a bullet is in the shower or bath. You’re already naked and wet, why not strike while the iron is hot? To pull this off, make sure the bullet that you’re buying is waterproof. A waterproof bullet also makes cleaning painless too.
If you have roommates or live with anyone that you don’t particularly want to hear the telltale buzz, the best thing you can do for yourself is pick a quiet bullet vibrator. There are plenty of options that are both quiet and still powerful enough to get you off.
While we’re on the subject of quiet bullet vibrators, if you plan on taking your bullet out of the bedroom and the shower, focus on whisper-quiet, and small bullet vibrators. Find ones that can slip into a pair of panties to level up any outing. The absolute best way to take advantage of these bullet vibrators is to hand off the remote controls to a partner and sit back and climax.
Depending on how adventurous you’re feeling, you can try to see if you can be as quiet as your vibrator in a restaurant or a movie theatre. Or, why not explore in an Uber on the way to a party?
Get a charge
Bullet vibrators are small and wireless, so you’ll need to consider how it’s powered up, specifically conventional battery vs. rechargeable. While the rechargeable is obviously very convenient since you’ll never find yourself looking in your junk drawer for a triple-A, you could find yourself with a dead bullet right when you need it.
Discreet and Portable
A perk of bullet vibrators is the compact and portable nature of this power player. If you’re looking for something to keep you titillated during your vacation with your partner or solo trip but can’t stomach the idea of airport security finding something that screams “sex toy” in your bag, bring your bullet vibrator. In addition to being small and typically nondescript, there are models out there made to be incognito. The more secretive ones look like a tube of lipstick as an example.
You might be asking yourself why you would even bother on a trip, but vacation sex is already the best sex. You’re not doing dishes or vacuuming, and routines don’t matter! You’re relaxing! What better time than that to play, have fun, and experiment?
Slippery when wet
I cannot stress enough that just because you’re not typically inserting your bullet vibrator, you don’t need lube. A good water-based lubricant is a must-have. The best way to use your bullet vibrator is with plenty of lube, no matter where, when, or with whom you’re using it.
Have fun exploring!
