Warm-n-Glow Vibes

Date: (12 November 2011)

I was really excited to find out I had won the warm and glow vibe from the Halloween competition with sex toys uk, thank you so much.

I collect unusual vibrators and I adore sensory play, the amount of times I have spent warming up my vibes to play with, I was really looking forward to using this without the hassle of carrying jugs of warm water to the bedroom.

PACKAGING
When it arrived it came in a tasteful fun box. "Novelty use only" made me smile, what does that mean exactly. does anyone know, are we meant to just look at it and Oo and Arhh at the light and heat... But the box states that it is for novelty and external use only.
"Any product use for medical purposes or for use that has an adverse effect on any function of the body is prohibited". Is masturbating a medical purpose.... how would you know if it had an adverse effect till you used it...?
Anyway I am using it and I am loving it.

DESIGN
The warm N glow massager is a 3 in 1 toy, a massager that warms and glows as well as a sextoy.
The waterproof massager is an unusual shape and is divided into 2 joined by a flexible neck. The pink PU coating is really soft and sensuous.
The full length of the massager is 17.5cm including button.
The head is 6.5cm long and its widest point is 3cm which tapers to a smooth blunted tip for comfort enabling a wider surface area for massage. The base is 9.6cm long and fits comfortably into the palm of your hand so you can reach hard to get at places.

The VIBRATIONS
The first is a slow vibration, this didn't do much for me, click again and the 2nd speed is fast and rumbly.
Click again and it turns off.
The vibrations are fairly quiet and cannot be heard through walls and certainly quite enough for a bath or shower.

USE
As a back pain sufferer I was looking forward to trying this as an added bonus for pain relief. On the base of the box it states "Therapeutic rays for increased blood circulation".
This made me think of something from a bad 60's sci-fi B-movie, a flash of light that shoots form the end and maybe a healing wave or pulse, this is of course a slight exaggeration as is the phrase on the box.
But that said the head really does heat up well and the constant warmth combined with vibrations felt incredible. But for me as a power queen, I felt it just needed an extra speed or a little bit extra from the vibrations. The vibes have a nice rumbly feel which is great for massage and it certainly got me there in the end with the help of the heat it was just amazing.
The image on the box is a little misleading in the fact the head does not sway, jiggle or move as extreme as the box shows.

THE HEAT AND GLOW
The heat was a great surprise for me as I really wasn't expecting to feel much warmth from such a; in their words "novelty item". The heat is a comfortable, enjoyable heat but does not get too hot to touch. It is hard to describe without measuring the actual temperature but its very warm and it maintained the same temperature until my brand new batteries started to die after approximately half an hour. Obviously if you want powerful vibrations and heat; the trade-off is the battery power, it didn't last long at all.
But then it had already completed its main job and I did and it was fantastic.

The head glows beautifully in the dark, (see my photos). I think these maybe small lights that heat up of some kind, (e.g. which is why they do warn us to only use this for external use only).
The massager continued to heat up till my batteries completely died so the heat seems to be linked to the power of your batteries, so if it becomes too warm turn off immediately.

This massager is more like using a mini wand but with the added bonus of having heat and is brilliantly innovative idea, this whole body massager really does help you relax.
If you are a lover of sensory play you will adore this little gadget, it feels incredible, the strong rumbly vibrations and the heat from the head certainly feels amazing against your clit, plus you can have a few inches of penetration should you wish, even though the box says "External use only", I'm still alive, nothing jumped out and ate me and I had no electric shocks.
But joking aside; something that heats up must always be used with caution and common sense.

CLEANING
The massager is made to be completely waterproof so technically you can clean it under warm running water, in the bath or shower I chose not to, as I do not 100% trust the seals and have yet to submerge this in the pursuit of science.
The head cleans well with sextoy cleaner, but it has some small hygiene issues, it has a moulding join on the head and the neck is made of a corrugated plastic; which has a small gap where the motor sits inside. There maybe a waterproof seal inside but we cannot see it, but most certainly this gap will harbour germs, so you must play close attention to this when cleaning, use a spray cleaner to get onto all the gaps.

CONCLUSION
A great innovative idea for toy collector who love sensory play, or someone who has every type of toy. A brilliant novelty gift for anyone who enjoys wands and body massage; the vibrations and constant heat feel incredible, the smooth head gives a larger surface area for the vibrations to work through, plus slight penetration should you wish.
But the main bonus with this massager is the fact of its warmth without having to prepare jugs of hot water in the bedroom and no more sleeping in the wet patch for my OH (there should only be one wet patch).
Plus its a great price for a fun toy like this.

The only con for me is the battery power; but I understand if you want power and heat there has to be a trade-off. I would also have loved an extra speed, I just felt it wasn't powerful enough for me.
That said I still thoroughly enjoyed this vibe and will be buying more batteries to enjoy the sensuous warming technology. Just seeing the head glow gives you a warm feeling and will also add a little fun for you and your partner. A great fun massager for yourself or with a partner; for theraputic or sensual purposes.
