No one knows your body like you do, but even you might want to experiment with what you like. We've rounded up some of the best sex toys for women, from cult-favorite wand vibrators (Magic Wand, IYKYK) to glass dildos that look like a work of art. We've scoured the internet's best sex toy shops for clit-sucking vibrators, rabbit vibrators, anal toys, whisper-quiet vibrators, and the all-around best adult sex toys. Whether you're looking to upgrade your masturbation routine, incorporate toys into partnered sex, or generally upgrade your sex life, there's something here for you. Wondering what to look for when shopping for sex toys? We tapped the experts. "For folks with vulvas and vaginas, we need to remember that three out of four women need direct or indirect clitoral stimulation for optimal sexual pleasure," shares Rosara Torrisi, PhD, a licensed clinical social worker and AASECT-certified sex therapist at the Long Island Institute of Sex Therapy in Syosset, New York. If you're buying your first sex toy or you just need a recap, here are a few different sex toy products to know:
"Vibrators are a typical favorite and they come in both external, clitoris-focused design as well as internal, phallic options," shares Jenn Kennedy, PhD, board-certified sex therapist and licensed marriage and family therapist in Santa Barbara, California. (She is also the founder of Riviera Therapy and The Pleasure Project.) Penis Sex Toys
These types of vibrators typically stimulate the internal erogenous zone — you've probably heard referred to as the G-spot, though that term isn't totally accurate. Whatever you call it, there's a whole class of vibrators designed for G-spot stimulation.
These are typically bigger vibrators used to stimulate the clit or other external zones. They're often described as having rumbly vibrations.
These are all about dual stimulation. They usually have a longer shaft that goes inside, plus a smaller, flexible shaft - often with two soft nubs, or ears - that stimulate the clit. "Some folks appreciate internal and external stimulation," Dr. Torrisi tells us. I most appreciate when internal and external stimulation have separate controls."
"Toys that focus on the external clitoris that I love are air pulse toys from companies like Womanizer and Satisfyer," says Dr. Torrisi. These use gentle pressure to surround and stimulate the clit, a sensation similar to oral sex.
While most vibrators have built-in buttons to adjust settings to your desired effects, some are controlled via remotes or even apps on your phone. These are especially fun for partner play, since they give you the option to let your partner control the speed, pattern, and intensity of your vibrator.
These encompass basically any vibrating or non-vibrating toy that can be used anally. "If you're new to anal play, start slow and small," advises Dr. Torrisi. Any toy that's designed for anal use should also have a flared base for safety. Lube is also essential for easy gliding since your body doesn't produce any natural lubrication in this area.
These tend to be penis-shaped toys that can be used anally or vaginally. They're usually made of silicone, glass, or metal and many of them are compatible with harnesses for strap-on play. Some of them vibrate, but it's more common for them to be non-vibrating toys.
Many of these sex toys are great for solo play, but they can also be a fun part of partnered sex if you want them to be. Browsing for toys together "can be a big part of the foreplay as the mind starts to imagine how toys might be used," says Dr. Kennedy. "It's also a way to signal more of what you like, which is a thrilling way to grow the relationship."
Now that we've covered the basics, let's get right down to the best, high-quality sex toys for women to shop right now.

In the world of sex toys, LELO is synonymous with luxury. The retailer only releases one or two new toys a year, meaning each product has been thoughtfully designed and tested before it hits your doorstep. The Sona 2 Cruise is one of LELO's best sellers, and it's one Allure editors have highlighted before as the best clit vibrator. It's an external vibrator that uses sonic pulses across 12 intensity levels — all of which are controlled via an easy, three-button interface — to stimulate your clit. It's also 100% waterproof so you can use it in the shower or bathtub to unwind after a long day. Why it stands out: You deserve to treat yourself, and this body-safe silicone LELO toy is the most luxurious way to do so. Expert tip: The Sona 2 Cruise has a unique "Cruise Control" feature that unleashes a little more power when you press it against your body with increased pressure, which ideally happens when you're nearing orgasm.
Vibrators don't have to be complicated. The Maude Vibe proves it, with a streamlined design and just three speeds. What makes this vibrator particularly good for beginners is the comprehensive usage guide, complete with photos, videos, and a FAQ section — all of which can be found on the product page. Sex toys can be intimidating but Maude makes them far more accessible. It's also among the best toys for transgender women and nonbinary people.
Why it stands out: Some sex toys have seemingly endless settings and speeds, but most people don't need that many. This vibrator keeps things simple.
Expert tip: It's made with platinum-grade silicone that's soft to the touch and feels nice on your clit, nipples, perineum, or any other sensitive (external) regions.
If you're in a long-distance relationship, bookmark We-Vibe's website now. They're basically the best when it comes to sex toys that can be controlled remotely, including Melt, a unique vibrator that mimics the sensation of oral sex. The 12 intensity levels can be controlled from afar with the We-Vibe app, meaning you can put your partner in charge even if they're halfway across the world. Of course, it can also be controlled with the built-in buttons if you're using this for solo self-care. Why it stands out: I mean, it's a vibrator you can control from basically any (internet-connected) place in the world! We are truly living in the future.
Expert tip: According to reviewers, it's easy to use this during penetrative sex, especially if you're willing to experiment with different positions.
Some things are classics for a reason. Case in point: The Magic Wand. This iconic vibrator has been a staple of many sex toy drawers for decades, thanks to the powerful, rumbly vibrations it produces. Unlike the original Magic Wand, this version is cordless (though notably, you can use it while it's plugged in, which is not the case with many sex toys). It's also blessedly simple to use, featuring four speeds and four patterns, all controlled by three buttons.
Why it stands out: Why reinvent the wheel? If you want a simple and very effective vibrator, this is at the top of the list. (Plus, this model’s rechargeable battery means you’re not tethered to a cord like in years past.)
Expert tip: The Magic Wand is a good sex toy for people with arthritis or other hand impairments, thanks to the wide, easy-to-hold base and simple button interface. It's also one of the best sex toys for trans women and nonbinary people. "Even if you don't use it on your clit you can use it on your back," New York-based sex educator Octavia Leona Kohner suggested. We love versatility.
This sleek toy is designed to stimulate the feeling of oral sex. But while your partner's jaw might eventually get tired, this suction vibrator can keep going for hours. Four hours, to be precise. The Womanizer X Lovehoney Pro40 Rechargeable Clitoral Stimulator operates using "Pleasure Air Technology," which involves sending focused air pulses towards the clit to stimulate the nerve endings without actually touching them. According to many reviewers, it's a completely unique sensation that leads to incredible orgasms.
Why it stands out: This toy is a winner for many people with vaginas since it focuses on the clit without overstimulating it.
Expert tip: This can be used for masturbation (obviously) but the design also makes it easy to use during partnered sex.
A bullet vibrator is like the MVP of sex toys, thanks to the ease of use, creative possibilities, and generally accessible price point. This Supersex Bullet Vibrator from Tracey Cox has just over 1,000 5-star reviews on Lovehoney. Customers love that it's simple: There's one button and one speed, so you won't have to click through 10 settings to find the one you like. It's also fully submersible if you're looking to use it in the bath.
Why it stands out: $20 for a fan-favorite vibrator that practically guarantees tons of orgasms? Yes, please.
Expert tip: If you're looking to take a sex toy on vacation or to your hookup's place, this mini vibrator is easy to travel with.
Quick recap: A blended orgasm is one where your internal and external erogenous zones are both being stimulated simultaneously. These types of orgasms can be super intense, which is probably why there are many toys designed to do just that — including the LELO Soraya Wave, a popular rabbit vibrator. The larger shaft is designed to vibrate and move back and forth inside you, while the smaller one (the "ears" of the rabbit) stimulates the clit. You can activate either of the two arms individually, or both for a heightened experience. Admittedly, this toy is on the pricier side, but "you get what you pay for," as Dr. Kennedy points out. "Better toys are going to cost more."
Why it stands out: This velvety-soft bunny proves that clit action and penetration is a winning combo.
Expert tip: If you enjoy a partner making a "come hither" motion while fingering you, you'll likely love this toy.
Similar to stainless steel, "glass toys are durable, allow you to play with temperature, feel more sturdy, and are also easy to clean," Dr. Kennedy shares. Unbound Babes' dual-ended Gemini Glass Dildo has a beaded end that's particularly good for anal play, while the curved end with a bulbous head can be used to stimulate the G-spot (or also used for anal play). And unlike many other sex toys, you can throw this in the dishwasher if you want to. (Just ask your roommates first.) Why it stands out: Glass toys are affordable and won't ever betray you with a dead battery. Expert tip: You can easily use this along with a vibrator for a toe-curling sensation.
Much like a rabbit vibrator, Tracy's Dog OG Pro 2 Clitoral Sucking Vibrator is designed to provide internal and external stimulation. But unlike your standard rabbit vibrator, this toy has a clit-sucking feature that leads to incredible, leg-shaking orgasms. This vibrator can also be hands-free: Once you've got it where you want it, there's no need to keep holding it in place. If you want to change things up, it also comes with a remote so you can switch settings without bringing the show to a pause. Why it stands out: Some people need a little more stimulation to reach orgasm and this rumbly, suction-y toy is ready to provide that, especially on higher settings. Expert tip: You can also use the two features, G-spot vibrations and clit suction, individually rather than simultaneously. It's kind of like having three vibrators in one.
If you've been on TikTok lately, you've probably come across some iteration of this rose-shaped sex toy. In addition to being too cute for words, Lovehoney's Rose Clitoral Suction Stimulator gets the job done with 10 levels of pulsating suction that clit-havers are sure to enjoy. It's also easy to use, thanks to a two-button interface and magnetic charger — an ideal toy for beginners. A few reviewers mention that it can be a little noisy, so turn on some music or a white noise machine if you're playing with this in earshot of other people. Why it stands out: According to hundreds of reviewers, this suction vibrator really "rose" to the occasion. Expert tip: Why stay downstairs? The gentle suction emanating from this toy also feels great on nipples.
This unique wand vibrator will never die just as you're getting to the good part. It's corded, so as long as it's plugged into an outlet, it'll keep buzzing for as long as you need it to. While most vibrators use buttons to switch between predetermined intensities, this unique vibrator uses a rolling control dial that lets you, well, dial in the setting that works best for you. You can use it on the clit, on nipples, on penis heads, or practically anywhere else within reach of the lengthy cord. Why it stands out: Call it Old Faithful. A plug-in vibrator is simply more reliable. Expert tip: The power cord measures eight feet long, so you should be able to use this in most bedrooms or bathrooms. And hey, you could always grab an extension cord if you require more reach.
Many vibrators can be used during partnered sex, but Dame Eva II's design is undeniably unique. The small device tucks in against your clit and the flexible arms extend ever so slightly underneath the labia majora to keep the vibrator in place. (If this isn’t making sense, the product page has a helpful video). Long story short, you won't have to keep adjusting this toy during sex, no matter how vigorous things get. Why it stands out: As Dame's first product, this vibrator truly was designed for pleasuring people with vaginas. Expert tip: As with any toy, even one designed "for couples" or to be worn during partnered sex, you can use this solo as well.
Another popular sex toy brand to have on your radar is Satisfyer. This rechargeable suction vibrator provides 11 modes of oh-so-pleasurable pulses around your clit. And at $60, the Satisfyer Pro 2 Gen 2 Air Pulse Stimulator is far more affordable than similar suction vibrators that can cost well over $100. If you can snag it during a PinkCherry sale, you might be able to get it for even less. But once you've experienced what this toy can do, we think you'd happily pay hundreds of dollars. Why it stands out: It's affordable, sleek, and has thousands of glowing reviews. Expert tip: Experiment with placement and pressure to find the sensation that feels best for you. As the product description suggests "you'll know when you find The Spot!"
Bellesa's Thrust does all the work for you. It's a rabbit vibrator, but unlike most, it stimulates your internal erogenous zones by thrusting. That's just the beginning. A set of rotating beads around the shaft stimulates your vaginal opening, plus, a uniquely flat exterior arm that ensures your clit is in on the action as well. According to the product description, the vibrator was designed using tons of input from Bellesa's community members and features the brand's "most advanced technology." It doesn't come cheap, but dozens of reviewers promise it's worth the price tag. Why it stands out: Rarely (if ever) does a toy have this many features dedicated to bringing you a dual-stimulation orgasm. Expert tip: Since there are multiple features to play with, you might want to set aside an entire evening to get to know this vibrator.
"We can't forget anal play," Dr. Torrisi notes. "Anuses are equal opportunity erogenous zones, because just about every body has an anus." This six-piece Bumper Booty Bundle Anal Sex Toy Kit from Lovehoney is good for newbies and those experienced with anal play, since it features toys of different lengths and shapes. The set also comes with a small bullet vibrator that can be inserted into the butt plugs or anal beads for additional stimulation, or used separately. The set also comes with an anal douche, which some people like to use before engaging in anal play - but you should know it's definitely not necessary to douche if you don't want to.
Why it stands out: Why pick just one toy when you can have five? Expert tip: Add lube, sex toy cleaner, and a pack of AAA batteries to your cart along with this kit so you can start enjoying these toys as soon as they arrive.
If you're more interested in internal stimulation, LELO's Gigi 2 is worth considering. It stimulates the sensitive spots on your vaginal wall using eight intense vibration settings. The gently curved shape makes it easy to position this device exactly where you want it, and it has a lengthy battery life of four hours. It's also made with soft silicone and features a quiet motor so your roommates and neighbors won't overhear your fun. Why it stands out: The uniquely flat tip ensures the toy comes in contact with your internal hot spots, leading to toe-curling orgasms.
Expert tip: The tip is designed to be flipped over, allowing you to easily use this as a clitoral vibrator.
Le Wand Double Vibrator has a unique design is great for clit stimulation, since the two nubs surround the clit and can be pinched together with just the right amount of pressure.

No matter where you use it, you'll enjoy the 15 vibration modes, six intensity levels, and removable textured sleeve.
Why it stands out: The futuristic design is unlike anything else in the sex toy market right now.
Expert tip: The sensations can be intense at the base but are less intense at the tips. Don't be afraid to experiment to find what works best for you.
A finger vibrator, as the name suggests, is designed to be worn on your fingers, allowing for easy maneuvering. Lovelife Rev is designed with accessibility in mind, meaning it's easy to grip, holds your fingers securely in place, and features just a single button. It has five vibration settings, plus it's waterproof and USB rechargeable. Use it on your or your partner's clit, nipples, perineum, or any other sensitive regions. We see a fun night in your future once this toy makes its way to you.

Water Soluble Lubricant When you're using a vibrator, finding the right spot is one thing. But keeping it in the right spot (especially if a partner is involved) can be surprisingly difficult. The beauty of this PinkCherry Wearable Butterfly Vibe is that it stays exactly where you want it to be. Made with ABS plastic and thermoplastic, this unique vibe is designed with a gentle curved shape and textured body that targets your clit while you're wearing it. You also don't need to keep track of a loose remote somewhere in the sheets while you're using this, since the spin-dial controller is attached. Why it stands out: Wearable vibrators can be a little tricky, often relying on Bluetooth apps or finicky remotes. This one is a simple introduction to the concept. Expert tip: This one can be used by itself, but you could also easily use this during penetrative sex or in tandem with a G-spot vibrator or anal toy. The possibilities are practically endless.
