【fermata recommends】8 pleasure items you'll want to tell someone about!
From a vibrator that raised $500,000 on crowdfunding to the world's first vibrator that can visualize orgasms, and more.
We'll introduce 8 items from 3 sex toy brands, ranging from products that will make you want to tell everyone about them to pleasure items perfect for beginners.
① Completely Hands-Free! Dame Products "Eva 2"
The marshmallow-sized cute vibrator, "Eva 2 ". Its most distinctive feature is that it's hands-free.
While a study shows that only 18.4% of women can achieve orgasm through penetration alone, many couples feel distant from their partner when using a vibrator because their hands are occupied.
This led to the development of the original "Eva". It's worn on the labia with flexible wings. It resonated with women and couples who shared the same concern, and in 2014, it raised over $500,000 in crowdfunding.
"Eva 2" is an improved version. Since your hands are free, you can hold hands with your partner or use it while embracing. The direction and position of use are also highly flexible (up, down, in, out, etc.), making it a fun product to experiment with various uses.
It's made by the American sex toy brand, DAME Products.
Traditional sex toys often had gaudy colors and startling shapes, making it difficult for women to keep them in their rooms or pick them up.
That's where Alex, who studied Sex Therapy at Columbia University Graduate School, and Janet, an MIT-graduated engineer, stepped in.
Based on thorough research and studies, they develop products that are visually and tactilely pleasing.

② Dame Products "Fin" - Use it like an extension of your finger
After developing Eva, Dame's second product was "Fin ." It's characterized by its design, which allows you to hold it between your fingers. Since it doesn't require a strong grip, your hand won't get tired even with prolonged use.
Based on feedback from nearly 2,000 men and women who used Eva, and inspired by keywords such as "sense of unity" and "blending in without standing out," Dame focused on the fingers, which are used naturally, and created "Fin," a vibrator that can be used like a part of the body.
It has a loop to put your finger through, so you won't drop it even if you let go. It's elastic and doesn't hinder movement, but you can remove the loop for more freedom of use. During development, it was repeatedly tested by men and women aged 20-60, both right-handed and left-handed, so it's shaped to fit anyone's finger. It's perfect for those looking for a toy that can be used alone or with a partner.

③ Quiet and flexibly bending Dame Products "Pom"
Also from Dame, "Pom " is a vibrator with a matte texture that makes you want to keep touching it.
The distinctive feature of "Pom" is its internally hollow body, which allows it to bend softly, making its shape adaptable to any body or hand movement.
First, it's recommended to hold it with your entire palm and place it against your body for stability. Slowly apply it to various parts of your body to find your favorite spots. Another key point is that it's especially quiet compared to other Dame products.
You can use it with peace of mind even if you're worried about housemates or neighbors hearing it.

④ Cute like a lipstick! Dame Products "Kip"
"Kip " is a later addition to the Dame product line and has a friendly shape. It's characterized by its ability to provide different sensations with its hard and soft edges and surfaces. At first glance, it might look like an ordinary vibrator, but in fact, its "rounded handle," "squishy edges," and "flat surfaces" each offer completely different experiences.
During Kip's development, feedback from approximately 100 people aged 19-74 who tested prototypes was incorporated. It's no wonder that the design is user-friendly from the moment you open the box and pick it up.
The visual design mimics a lipstick, and its size fits into a makeup pouch, making it a perfect product for travel or overnight stays.
It's also a nice touch that you can stand it upright with the tip facing up when you want to take a break. It's recommended for first-time vibrator users.

⑤ Explore your unique pleasure with app-linked Lioness "Lioness"
The smart vibrator "Lioness" is equipped with sensors, gyroscopes, and more, allowing it to measure physiological functions during use, such as pelvic floor vibrations, hand movements, and body temperature. By sharing this information with the accompanying smartphone app, you can explore which methods of use feel best for you. To date, it has provided over 30,000 women with the opportunity to "connect with their bodies."
Female orgasm is often invisible, making self-study difficult.
The Lioness smartphone app automatically graphs orgasms, so by changing the situation, place, and time of use, such as after drinking coffee or lighting your favorite aroma, you can explore the conditions and points that make you feel good.
fermata recommended situation: For the curious, and those who want to discover their own "feel-good"!
Lioness, a company that develops cutting-edge vibrators, aims to eliminate prejudice against "sexual pleasure" and increase people's knowledge about sex through individual data. Liz, the founder, who originally worked in sexual wellness, was surprised by how many people didn't know much about their own bodies, and so she founded Lioness with two tech-savvy colleagues.
⑥ Petal-like form YVEREST "TSUBAKI"
"TSUBAKI" has the form of a camellia flower.
The tip, which resembles overlapping petals, reproduces the sensation of being stimulated by a tongue. It can also be used by sandwiching it between two petals.
YVEREST vibrators are great for their attention to detail, meeting subtle needs such as an easy-to-hold slim handle, a design that allows them to stand upright, and direct charging without the need for a dedicated charging cable.
fermata recommended situation: For when you want to enjoy a different kind of stimulation from your usual pleasure items.
YVEREST is a sexual wellness brand from Hong Kong. Yoona, the founder, who was born and raised in Japan and traveled the world, realized that Western countries were making progress in addressing taboos surrounding female pleasure, and recognized a gap in the field of women's health and wellness, especially sexual wellness, in Asia, which led to its creation.
⑦ Bud-like slim vibrator YVEREST "TSUBOMI"
Also from YVEREST, "TSUBOMI" is inspired by a flower bud.
This design can be used both internally and externally, allowing you to enjoy various sensations with just one item.
With a slim diameter of 24mm, it's a vibrator that's easy to use for those who want to get used to penetration or are new to insertable types. Since its surface has fine undulating bumps, it's also recommended to apply it while rotating it.
fermata recommended situation: For your first pleasure time. When you want to try both internal and external stimulation.
⑧ Cordless suction vibrator YVEREST "SAKURA"
"SAKURA" is the world's first suction vibrator with a built-in USB charging base.
Suction vibrators are characterized by their ability to enclose the clitoris with a round, hollow suction part, providing a sensation akin to being sucked. Since they stimulate a precise point, it's recommended to choose one with a compact and easy-to-target suction part.
SAKURA is great because the suction part is compact as it's separate from the handle, and the long handle makes it easy to target while lying down.
Despite its cute appearance, it delivers strong stimulation with 10 levels of suction.
fermata recommended situation: For when you want to enjoy a sensation similar to oral sex.
