The best love eggs to try now
Get crackin’!

Love eggs are a super versatile sex toy. They’re great for powerful internal vibrations, discreet orgasms, and can help tone your kegel muscles, which is great for intimacy. Your kegel muscles are the muscles in your pelvic floor, which contract when you have an orgasm; according to some research, stronger pelvic floor muscles can lead to stronger orgasms. Stronger pelvic floor muscles can also make penetrative sex more pleasurable for both you and your partner (if they have a penis).
How to use love eggs
Plus, there’s plenty of love eggs to choose from. If you go for a remote-controlled vibrating love egg, simply slip the egg inside your vagina (using plenty of water-based lube!) and use the external controls to find the best setting for you. Depending on the toy, there will be a part of it – usually a loop, string, or tail – that needs to stay out of you for easy and safe removal.
Ben Wa balls can be inserted similarly: using lots of lube slip in both the balls, leaving the string outside. We’ve also included a love egg for people with penises, the Tenga Egg, which can help elevate your hand jobs by slipping the stretchy sleeve over the head of their penises and using it to stimulate their shaft. In case we haven’t said it enough: you’ll want to use plenty of lube for this too.
As well as being fun for power games (insert the egg and give the controls over to your lover), subtle orgasms while you’re out and about or even while ticking things off your to-do list (they certainly make washing up more exciting), love eggs are a treat toy for traveling as they’re small enough to fit into your luggage.
"You can keep a love in for however long it feels comfortable for you," explains Gigi Engle, clinical sexologist, sex educator, and sex expert at Sextoys.co.uk. "I wouldn't recommend wearing one longer than 8 hours because I wouldn't recommend keeping anything inside the vagina for more than 8 hours."

Sexual benefits of love eggs
"Wearing a love egg can increase arousal, make you more aware of your deeper pleasure centers (the internal clitoris), and bring you closer to orgasm" says Engle. "The vibration is a bit muted, offering a more subtle pulsation than a regular vibrator, which usually has more intense vibration."
"Using a love egg during oral sex can greatly increase your partner’s overall sensations, offering deeper, full-body orgasms. Unlike bigger, bulkier vibrators, a love egg pops right inside the vagina, leaving the entire vulva open and ready for your mouth," she adds.
How we choose must-have sex toys
With a team of sex writers sitting on standby, we set them to work. Each of our three testers — who, FYI, all have vulvas but occupy various positions on the sexuality, gender identity and age spectrums — have tried out a whole host of toys from clit suckers, wands, rabbits, and pebbles.
After an intense examination of the toy itself, its box and the (if any) included extras, they got down to, um, business. Pairing each plaything with water-based lube, all our volunteers aimed for an orgasm, testing every pattern and feature en route.
Our crack team is also clued up on all the best materials and features, so any products we haven't yet had the chance to test are recommended based on our expert knowledge.
We've rounded up some of our favourite love eggs for all budgets and experience levels.
