The Best Anal Toys

Shopping for
Anal Toys
Buying anal toys can be an intimidating experience! There are so many products on the market â how do you possibly begin to choose the best anal toy for you? Once youâve read this guide, youâll feel more knowledgeable about the types of anal sex toys available, so you can make an informed decision about what will suit your needs the best.
Never in recent history has butt play been talked about so transparently. Exploring with a new anal toy is a lot of fun, but the most essential part of making the experience pleasurable is education. Education empowers you to experience new and exciting things while also allowing you to know exactly what to expect, which is a big determining factor in how much fun you will be able to have.
Here at Matilda's, we like to make sure you have all the information you need to make an informed decision about pleasuring your bum, so we've put this list together to walk you through different types of booty toys, butt-plugs and everything you need to know about choosing the right anal toy for you or your partner.
ANAL PLUGS
For Fullness
What Are They?
Butt plugs are designed to be inserted into the bum for sexual pleasure. They are in some ways similar to dildos. However, the designs of butt plugs is different from that of dildos: plugs are shorter and have a flanged end to keep the plug in place. Basically, a plug has been designed to stay in for the duration of use, whereas a dildo is used to simulate intercourse (the in and out motion).
Should I Give It A Go?
Definitely! Here's why: The anus has a high concentration of nerve endings, so even shallow insertions feel delicious. Inserting an anal plug during sex feels great for a woman! Plugs provide an incredible feeling of fullness and make orgasms more intense.
A female wearing a plug is also pleasurable for a male partner during intercourse, as it creates a subtle pressure on his shaft. Plugs can arouse the prostate too (located up the front wall of the anus), which produces orgasms more intense than those from penile stimulation alone.
Is It Safe To Use?
Absolutely. The flanged end ensures that the plug will stay firmly in place. Some people even walk around wearing a butt plug when they're out and about â to make trips to the supermarket more pleasurable and playful, one would assume! So yes, they are entirely safe to use.

ANAL VIBRATORS
For Those Good Vibrations
What Are Anal Vibrators?
Unlike plugs and probes, anal vibrators are designed to produce a variety of sensations, with a range of movements. They rotate, vibrate, and pulse â all at different speeds. Anal vibes have very powerful motors to ensure that vibrations are able to travel through the strong muscles of the rectum and sphincter. Although good for men and women, men find them particularly pleasing since they deliver great sensations straight to the prostate (the male G-spot).Â
The Petite Sensations Vibrating Anal Plug
What Different Types Are Available?
You can choose from vibrating prostate massagers, anal beads, probes, and even vibrating butt plugs. What you choose will be determined by what you like. Men might prefer vibrating prostate massagers, while vibrating anal probes are often small and slim enough for both experienced users and novices.
How Are They Different To Normal Vibrators?
These toys have been designed specifically for anal stimulation. They are generally smaller and slimmer than vaginal vibrators, which means they can be used in the bum safely. Anal vibrators also have a flanged base, which eliminates the potential for the toy to disappear in the body.

What Are They?
Anal beads are a set of beads or balls, attached by a flexible material, and usually in a series from small to large, making them easier to insert. Anal beads are worn during playtime or lovemaking and then pulled out at various speeds depending on what sort of effect you are looking to achieve. Usually, this is done just at the point of climax to intensify orgasm.

Who Can Use Anal Beads?
Everyone! Anal beads can be used solo or with a partner, by a man or a woman (although it may be more intense for a man because of their prostate). Beads are a great introduction to anal sex for beginners, as they can show you how pleasurable anal play can be. Anal beads also come in various sizes, perfect for beginners or the more experienced.
Why Should I Try Anal Beads?
The anus has many nerve endings and the sensations caused by anal beads being pulled out, one by one, can maximise arousal. Put simply: anal beads will make you feel really good, and they can help you orgasm faster and harder. Anal beads are particularly recommended for beginners because you can insert as many beads as you feel comfortable with, giving your body time to adjust to the sensations.

PROSTATE MASSAGERS
For Incredible Male Orgasms
What's The Big Deal About The Prostate?
Ah, great question! Prostate orgasms are a lot more intense than the orgasms you experience from just penile stimulation, so it's worth knowing where and what this little love button is! Prostate Massagers are very popular sex toys for men, offering deep, intense pleasure.

Where Can I Find My P-Spot?
The prostate is a male gland that is roughly the size and shape of a walnut. Located in just beneath the bladder and in the front of the rectum, the prostate can be stroked and massaged during sex, which will give the man super intense and powerful orgasms. So powerful, in fact, that it is even known as the male G-spot!
What Is A Prostate Massager?
A prostate massager is designed to slip up the rectum and massage this very spot. The toys' shape is similar to a finger and has a slightly curved head to reach the gland. Some prostate massages vibrate for extra sensations.

Unique Anal Toys
Anal Probes
What Is An Anal Probe?
A probe is like a small, slender vibrator or dildo, with a tapered tip and smooth body. Some vibrate, others do not. They can be used for men or women, making them versatile anal toys. They are usually longer than regular vibrators, allowing for deeper penetration, which allows for prostate and G-spot stimulation. Anal Probes are loved for their versatility: They can be used for anal play, and deep vaginal stimulation. Basically, they're great fun to use, regardless of what you're in the mood for!
Anal Probes
They are great for men during prostate stimulation or for women allowing G-spot stimulation. Anal probes can be used for all your intimate adventures. Their sleekness is perfect for replicating the movement of intercourse.
What Would I Use It For?
They come in various shapes, sizes, and materials based on your needs. Itâs the ideal toy for precision stimulation of the pleasure zones for either men or women.

ANAL DOUCHE
For Hygiene
What Is Anal Douching?
The term âdoucheâ derives from a Latin word meaning âpour by dropsâ. This is an appropriate word, since douching is the act of sending a pressurised jet of water into either the vagina or bum for the purpose of cleansing. While douching was once primarily promoted for vaginal hygiene, it is now popular for cleansing the anus before engaging in backdoor pleasuring.

Should I Douche And How Often?
Anal douche is a matter of personal preference. Some couples might prefer a planned, prepped, and more tidy exchange, while others thrive on the raunch of a spontaneous experience. Then there are some who find the prep as stimulating as the sharing itself!
Anal Stimulation
Regardless, it is important not to over do it when it comes to anal douching. Limit your rectal rinsing to a maximum of 2-3 times per week, and make sure youâre not being too aggressive. The anus consists of beneficial bacteria along with very sensitive tissue that you want to keep healthy and happy for future adventuring!

ANAL LUBRICANT
For Comfort & Pleasure
The anus doesnât produce natural lubrication as a vagina does. So plenty of lube is always essential when playing in this region â so why not use a long-lasting anal lube? Youâll be pleasantly surprised at how much more comfortable and sexier backdoor sensations can feel with anal-specific lubricants.
Pjur Anal Lubricants. Available in Water-based and Silicone-based.
Anal Lube Vs Water-Based Lube?
Anal lubricants are thicker than water-based lubricants, more slippery, and last a lot longer, taking anal play to a whole new level, as they keep slick the entire time. The viscosity of the anal lube also helps to protect delicate tissue in and around your anus. Anal lube works well with steel or glass toys â however, you MUST switch to water-based when using any silicone toys.
