Quick answer: the easiest toys for couples to start with are a vibrating ring (worn during sex, so both partners feel it), a small bullet vibrator, a remote-control egg and a water-based lube. Talk first, choose one toy together and begin on the lowest setting. The twelve ideas below go from gentle starters to more adventurous ones.
Bringing a toy into your relationship is not a sign that something is missing. For most couples it is the opposite: a sign that you are comfortable enough to play, laugh and try new things. Here are twelve couple-friendly ideas, from gentle starters to more adventurous picks, all available among sex toys in India at LustSutra.
Gentle starters
1. Massage oil or candle
The easiest first step. A slow massage builds trust and touch without any pressure, and it is a natural lead-in to more.
2. A good lubricant
Not glamorous, but it improves almost everything. A water-based lube works with condoms and all toys. See our lubricant guide.
3. Couples games
Dice, cards and dare games take the awkwardness out of asking for what you want. They are perfect for a date night at home.
4. Blindfold and feather
Taking away sight heightens every other sense. Simple, playful and very low-risk.
Toys made for two
5. Vibrating cock ring
Worn by him, it helps keep him firm while the vibrating part stimulates her clitoris during sex. One of the best-value couples toys there is. Read more in cock rings explained.
6. Bullet vibrator
A small vibrator is not just for solo use. Holding one against the clitoris during sex is one of the simplest ways to make it more pleasurable for her.
7. Wearable vibrator
Designed to sit in place during sex or foreplay, leaving both of your hands free.
8. Remote-control egg or vibrator
One of you wears it, the other holds the remote. Playful at home and an exciting secret on a night out.
9. App-controlled toys
Your partner controls the toy from their phone, from the next room or another city. Ideal for couples living apart; see our guide to long-distance couples toys.
A little more adventurous
10. Rabbit vibrator during foreplay
Let him use it on her, learning exactly what she enjoys. Many couples find this teaches more than any conversation.
11. Soft restraints
Plush cuffs or ties for trust-based play. Agree on a safe word first and read our bondage safety guide.
12. A masturbation sleeve for him
Used by her during foreplay, an open sleeve adds new textures and lets her take the lead.
How to bring it up
Talk outside the bedroom, frame it as adding rather than fixing, and agree that either of you can say stop. Our guide on how to bring up sex toys with your partner has phrases to use and what to do if the answer is “not yet”.
What couples worry about
“Will it replace me?” No. A toy is a tool, like music or candles. It adds sensation; it cannot replace closeness. Many men find that using a vibrator on their partner makes them feel more involved, not less.
“What will the family think?” Nobody needs to know. Orders arrive in plain, unbranded boxes, and most couples toys are small and easy to store.
