This Vibrator Had Me Moaning After A 3-Month Dry Spell
This vibrator bent to my body's every will.
Lovers Store When you’re 25 and you're on the hunt for the best vibrator for women in order to have an orgasm, it’s easy to think your sex life is doomed.
In an act of desperation, I bought new lube, researched libido supplements, saw a doctor (plus a therapist), and gave my partner detailed pointers, hoping these combined efforts would help me enjoy sex again.
Three months later, I was still dry as dust. So, I did the next best thing.
I got down and dirty with Fun Factory X Lovers Exclusive Semilino vibrator, a bendy, super-soft work of art if ever there was one.
Before the Semilino sex toy came into my life, I was settled on a dinky, straight-laced, hard as a rock bullet vibrator — the no-frills model that looks like an eggplant emoji.
The Semilino vibrator is a super-exclusive sex toy that can only be found in Lovers retail stores and on loversstores.com.
Lovers was founded in 1981 by a mother and daughter duo and has been an industry leader ever since. The company is on a mission to spread the message of sex positivity and wellness.
Lovers values inclusivity, well-being, respect, and empowerment. They have 41 stores in CA, WA, TX, TN, and OR and pride themselves on being your place for pleasure!
Limiting myself to boring jabs and ear-splitting buzzing, what was I thinking? After all, these are sex-positive times and women aren’t shying away from talking about sex toys.
I could have avoided months of discomfort, stress, and not being able to get off simply by upgrading to a better vibrator.
Semilino snapped me out of my dry spell. And I’m not looking back.

When I opened the Semilino, my eyes widened. This sex toy had ridges on ridges and curves for days. The silicone shaft alone made my lady bits sing because of the give.
I could already tell that this vibrator would bend to my body’s every will.
I’m a self-proclaimed headcase and no stranger to sexual dysfunction (hello, anxiety).
To my frustration, I’m a sucker for movies and TV shows with a lot of sex. This means that I’m constantly comparing my sex life to the stuff on the screens, nine times out of ten invaliding my desires to the cultural pressures of what normal sex “should” be/look like.
After receiving my Semilino vibrator, I figured it was time for a fresh start, though, so I charged her up, did some breath work, and fantasized about what it would be like to explore the depths of my newfound confidence.
The vibrator itself has a penis-like design (there’s even a head). Semilino comes to the bedroom with nine silicone ridges, a simple feature that makes clitoral stimulation much easier.
Ladies with sensitive, small clits know that fingers and tongues can be off-putting, even painful sometimes — especially at the beginning of foreplay when you’re not wet yet.
When I pushed the tip of the Semilino against my clit, though, I instantly noticed how comfortable I felt. The soft ridges formed a snug shelf under my clit, securing the vibrator in place while I did merry-go-round circles and up-and-down motions with the vibrator on setting one.
In Too Deep (Or Just Deep Enough)
Once I got going, I teased myself to level four, readying for penetration. I was wet enough before getting to level six, but once the Semilino was inside, I revved her up and started with slow, deep thrusts.
The vibrator isn’t aggressively loud like other handheld versions. Women who need to be sneaky can get off quietly and powerfully.
The six different rhythms offer a lot of room for customization. Personally, I’m a fan of the in-and-out fade, and it was this pattern that made me wetter than ever. You can angle the shaft to hit your clit while it’s inside of you, but I found this to be tricky with my body.
Using my left hand, I thrust away while happily massaging my clit with the other hand. The grip and sturdiness of the handle helped out a lot, a feature I was relieved to see after using twist-off-style vibrators in the past (nothing worse than accidentally turning it off right before orgasm).
I think a lot of women will appreciate being able to push Semilino’s buttons to adjust speed instead of twisting a cap to increase the intensity. This is particularly useful in the bathtub when you’re working with wet hands. Luckily, Fun Factory made the toy waterproof.
The only downside I got from the Semilino was the battery life. An hour in and it needs to be recharged, which is inconvenient when you want to take your time. My partner loved jumping in when it died, though, so technically that’s a plus.
The Bottom Line
This is a vibrator that makes solo and partner-play more enjoyable, and for that reason, I’ve been telling my close friends all about it.
The Semilino feels like an orgasmic earthquake with a range of speeds and patterns. Women who have a hard time climaxing or getting wet may find a happy balance with this toy.
The obvious orgasm perks are one thing, but I can honestly say that Semilino is the reason I'm more in touch with my body — and the horniest I've been in a long time.
