Why we love it: Revolve is (surprisingly?) a great place to buy sex toys. But considering the Dame Fin Vibrator quickly became one of the best-selling items on the site as soon as it launched, it seems like the secret’s out. So you might already know that the retailer isn’t just for snagging the latest designer bag or a sophisticated wedding guest dress. You can also grab sleek vibrators, plus massage oil candles, handcuffs, oral sprays, and more. If you’re a beginner, they have plenty of user-friendly options from brands like Maude and Unbound. And if you’re looking for something a little more experimental, they’ve got plenty of unique vibes that double as nightstand decor. (Hey, Goop.)
Standout toy: How cute is the Woo Vibez wand from Woo More Play? Grab onto that ergonomic heart handle and explore the five speeds this silicone toy has to offer. It can be used internally or externally and has a (very) long battery life of six hours. It also comes with a fun—although not the most discreet—travel case.
Frequently Asked Questions
How we test and review products
When Allure tests a product, our editors look at it from every angle in an effort to best serve you. We are particularly discerning when writing about sex toys. This is because of the increased risks that accompany sex toys.
Each device must be approved by a senior member of our team prior to appearing in Allure. Additionally, our editorial team consults sexual wellness experts about the science behind product claims and independently reviews any studies cited by brands. Testers consider performance across four primary categories: efficacy, safety (including ease of use), research and the science behind specific claims, as well as product value. To learn more information on what’s involved in our reporting, check out our complete reviews process and methodology page.
Our staff and testers
A beauty product is a personal purchase. You might be searching for a face cream to address persistent dryness or a new nail product to add to your Sunday self-care routine; you may simply be browsing around for the latest launches to hit the hair market. No matter what you seek or your individual needs and concerns, Allure wants to ensure that you love anything we recommend in our stories. We believe that having a diverse team of writers and editors—in addition to the wide range of outside testers and industry experts we regularly call upon—is essential to reaching that goal.
After all, can we really say a skin-care product is the “best” for people over 50 if the only testers we’ve solicited opinions from folks who have yet to hit 30? Can we honestly deem a high-end diffuser worthy of your hard-earned cash if it’s never been tested on curls? We’re proud that our staff spans a wide range of ages, skin tones, hair textures, genders, and backgrounds, which means that we are able to fairly assess any beauty product that comes into the beauty closet.
