How to Use a Finger Vibrator - Svakom Australia

If there’s one sex toy that puts intimate pleasure at your fingertips, it’s this. Discover the best ways to use a finger vibrator in solo and partnered situations, whatever your gender.

What is a finger vibrator?

Generally, a finger vibrator is designed to wear on one or more fingers or hold between them. They are compact sex toys ideal for delivering targeted stimulation to external erogenous zones on adults of all genders during masturbation, foreplay or intercourse, making them a highly versatile addition to any collection.

Although they are relatively smaller than insertable sex toys, finger vibrators should not be underestimated when it comes to their ability to enhance your sexual pleasure and wellness. It’s a diverse category so there’s bound to be one – or more – that caters to your needs and desires. Choose from a wide range of shapes, sizes, textures, materials, and other specifications such as the water-resistance level, recharging capabilities, and app-compatibility

Why use a finger vibrator?

Orgasm almost anywhere, anytime. That’s one of the commonest reasons for using a finger vibrator. Their relatively small size means finger vibrators tend to be a discreet, portable and travel-friendly option that easily fits in a pocket or bag until you’re ready to play.

Finger vibrators let adults of any gender, relationship status or sex toy experience level explore their or their partner’s body with dexterity and precision whether that be to visit familiar hot spots or discover new ones. For example, finger vibrators can be used to stimulate external pleasure zones including the clitoris, vulva, penis, scrotum, perineum, nipples, lower abdomen, and inner thighs.

Important note: Never insert a finger vibrator anally for safety reasons due to the risk of it getting stuck inside the body. Instead, choose from the SVAKOM collection of body-safe anal vibrators.

How to use a finger vibrator

To help you get more out of every session with your finger vibrator, we've prepared expert tips and techniques for solo sessions and couple's time.

If you're interested in using your finger vibrator with your partner, remember that mutual consent and good communication are essential. Read more in our expert blog, How to talk to your partner about sex toys

1. Prepare

Get to know your finger vibrator by reading the user manual. Ensure your finger vibrator is fully charged and sanitized. 

Create a comfortable environment for your session. For example, you might like to have dim lighting, scented candles, music and erotica. Keep some high-quality water-based lubricant nearby because it’s a good all-rounder compatible with most sex toy materials. Allow your mind to relax and body to relax. 

If your session involves a partner, ensure they’ve freely consented to using the finger vibrator with you and that both of you can withdraw that consent at any time. Take into account each other’s sexual turn ons and turn offs before the session and as it proceeds.

2. Position

Apply lubricant to your finger vibrator and/or bodily areas it will target. Lubricant will help to enhance sensations and reduce friction between your body and the sex toy materials. (Remember that you should never insert a finger vibrator anally for safety reasons. Instead, SVAKOM try anal sex toys.)

3. Play

Explore the settings of your finger vibrator. Start slowly and if the options are available for your sex toy, vary the mode and intensity as your comfort level allows. You might like to try other features of your finger vibrator too. Depending on your particular sex toy, this could include different textured surfaces, a heating function, the ability to use it in water, or app-control.

Notice how the finger vibrator feels on your body. Do you need to adjust how you move it or how firmly you apply pressure? Would changing your bodily position help you discover new or hard-to-reach pleasure zones, or add extra stimulation exactly where you want it?

In coupled scenarios, you and your partner might like to use your finger vibrator during erotic massage, foreplay, oral sex, or intercourse. For example, a finger vibrator can be used to stimulate the scrotum or underneath the penis during fellatio, or on the nipples during cunnilingus. 

Finger vibrators are also perfect for increasing clitoral stimulation during sexual intercourse and a possible alternative to cock rings. Depending on your sex position, either partner can use the finger vibrator to deliver the clitoral pleasure that vaginal penetration alone might not provide.  

When sharing your finger vibrator with your partner, always maintain communication – notice and respond to each other’s body language and verbal feedback accordingly to ensure a positive experience.

4. Protect

Sanitize your finger vibrator after use, recharge if needed, using the and then store it in a safe, cool, dark and dry place. 

Reflect on your session and what you enjoyed or could do differently next time. You might also like to do this if you used you finger vibrator with your partner.

What’s not to love about finger vibrators? They’re suitable for adults of any gender and sex toy experience level, travel-friendly, and easy to incorporate in solo or partnered sessions. Be empowered to enhance your sexual pleasure and wellness and slip on a finger vibrator.
