There’s nothing like the targeted action you can get from manual masturbation, and one of the best ways to dial up a solo session is the small but mighty finger vibrator. Generally made to fit—you guessed it!—your digits, finger vibrators slide onto your finger or between them, essentially putting the power pleasure right into the palm of your hand.
Combining precise stimulation with rumbly intensity, “finger vibrators are an amazing addition to solo sex because they allow you to use your hand as you normally would…while also providing vibration,” says Searah Deysach, longtime sex educator and owner of Early to Bed, a Chicago pleasure-product company that ships worldwide.
They also make an amazing first-time couples vibe, according to Andy Duran, the education director for Good Vibrations. Why? Well, for starters, they can be used to focus vibrations on literally any hot spot, he says—from the bum to the bosom and beyond—or for adding clitoral stimulation to penetrative sex.
Another bonus: Finger vibrators don’t look like biological penises. “For couples who are eager to avoid using representation toys, the fact that finger vibrators are nonphallic is a win,” he says.
They come in a variety of shapes and styles too, either for wearing on your finger like a thimble, adding a little texture to your fingertips, or worn like a massive ring. Ahead, we talked to sex experts about the best finger vibrators they recommend for targeted pleasure.
