Picture this: me, sitting with my younger friends, regaling them with tales of the good old days when intimate toys and "massagers" for women were like relics from the Stone Age. While I tell them of my latest discovery: an intimate massager with two ends for internal and external stimulation.

I'm not gonna lie, sometimes I feel like a cranky old woman (albeit a loving one) as I describe the uphill-both-ways trudge of trying to get off with a measly INR 3000 vibrator that barely did anything. And don't even get me started on the ~INR 8000 ones - I’ve heard my friends moan and bicker about an expensive purchase that didn’t get them anywhere. Can you imagine?!

But here's the thing, my lovelies- even with all the advancements in toy technology, there's still no guaranteed way to achieve that coveted big-O in the first go. Why? Because everyone's anatomy and preferences are different, and what works for one person might not work for another. That's why I'm here to share my knowledge and expertise on all the ideal ways to use your toys. Trust me, when you find that perfect combination, it'll be like hitting the jackpot.

The Rose: Tik-Tok famous for a reason

But let's be real - finding a vibrator in the under-INR 8000 price range that actually does the job used to be like finding a needle in a haystack. Either it was weak AF and left me yelling "GIMME MORE!" on the highest setting, or it was so buzzy that my nether regions went numb before I could even get close to the big O. Or, the most common scenario, it was both.

But guess what? Those days are behind us, my friends. And it's #$%&ing awesome.

Seven years ago, a vibrator at this price point would have made me want to throw it across the room. But the Gulaabo Personal Massager? It makes me giddy with joy. It's not just visually stunning, but it's also affordable with Manzuri Select's Pay in 3 EMIs option. And there's no catch - you can buy it right now and pay only 1/3rd of the price with 0% interest.

And let's talk about that rose shape, shall we? It's a pin-point pressure-wave toy that's designed to look like a lovely rose. But here's the kicker - it also has another end that vibrates and can be used to stimulate internally, externally or anywhere else you please. My partner even asked me if it was the TikTok-famous rose vibrator when they saw it in my Manzuri Select cart. And while it's not that one, it's just as amazing. I mean, my mind was blown by all the possibilities. Plus, it's great for solo play or partnered play. What's not to love?

A mini guide on being careful and patient

Okay, okay, I admit it: I can never wait to dive right into a brand-new toy, whether it's a vibrator, a lube, or whatever else tickles my fancy. But, as much as I'd love to just rip that sucker open and get down to business, I know that taking my time and reading the instructions (while sipping on a beer and grooving to some smooth R&B, of course) is the responsible thing to do.

And speaking of responsibility, let's talk about cleaning. Sure, your new toy may feel creamy and dreamy, but you gotta give it some TLC if you want it to stay safe and perfect for playtime. A quick rinse with warm water and mild soap or an intimate toy cleaner will do the trick.

Don't forget to dry it off before storing it away in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Think of it like tucking your favourite stuffed animal into bed at night (except, you know, sexier).

Now, I know you're eager to get down to business, but please, please, PLEASE don't skip the lube. Using a good water-based lube is worth its weight in gold.

Silicone may feel silky smooth to the touch, but without some slick lubrication, you might not get the friction you need for a mind-blowing experience. And trust me, you want mind-blowing.

And then, just give in to the rumble

Oh boy, where do I start with this one? Let's dive right in!

So, I have to admit, I am a total sucker for the suction end of this toy. And trust me, I've tried a lot of toys in this category. But this one really hits the spot. Just place the suction cup over your vulva, turn it on, and adjust the suction and vibration levels to your liking. It's like a customizable pleasure machine!

And you know what's even better? This toy is as quiet as a mouse. No need to worry about any loud buzzing ruining the mood. Plus, the vibrating end is pretty damn amazing too. It's got just the right amount of rumble to get my internal clit going, but it's still buzzy enough to give me that "whoa!" feeling on the surface of my skin.

But, let's be real, sometimes that buzzy sensation can cause a little bit of numbness. No worries though, just rub the toy in circles against yourself and you'll be good to go. And the best part? The entire length of this rose vibrator buzzes when the vibrations are on, so it's always intriguing to hold on to.

I even like to go hands-free with this device, clamping it between my thighs once it's positioned where I want it. And, let's not forget the fun factor! I once made a little gag with my partner by putting the long end inside me while presenting the rose end as a gift. We like to keep things intimate and fun during playtime. And trust me, this toy definitely delivers on both fronts.

Pro-Tip!

Hey there, my over-stimulated friends! I've got a pro tip for you that might just change your playtime game. If you're like me and need to take it slow and steady to fully enjoy the pleasure, then try using this toy the way I do. I like to start by positioning the suction cup end over my clit, just barely stimulating it through the hood.

This toy has a buzzy, teasing quality that gradually builds up the excitement. Once I'm properly warmed up, I switch to the other end for a deeper, more intense sensation inside. Trust me, it's the perfect slow burn to keep you going as long as you want!

Embrace joy - on both ends!

You get not one, but two ends to play with and a bunch of different patterns and speeds to choose from. I like to stick with steady speeds because the sensations can be so intense that adding rhythm to the mix can be a bit too much for me. But hey, everyone's different, so do what works for you!

Now, the shaft of this vibrator is flexible enough to be comfortable when used internally, but not quite flexible enough for you to use both ends of the toy at once. But honestly, that’s not really my thing anyway. I like to keep my sweet inner and outer spot stimulations separate, thank you very much! It’s like having two different desserts to enjoy, why mix them together when you can enjoy them one after the other?

If you're just starting out with penetrative play, or if you prefer your toys on the slimmer side, this smooth and slim toy could be a great fit for you. Just remember to take it slow and have fun exploring all the different sensations it has to offer!

Discover all the right spots - yours, theirs, and everybody’s!

This product is perfect to be used with partners - shy and extroverted, newbies or experienced adventurers alike. Its features work for anyone as long as you try out all that it has to offer.

Don't be afraid to experiment with different techniques and positions; I and my partner had quite a rave trying this one out. Trust me, this toy is a game-changer. The sucking end and vibrating end are both incredibly powerful, so you can't go wrong no matter which one you choose. Plus, it's designed to be used during penetration or in combination with other toys, so the possibilities are endless.

If you're worried about overusing your Gulaabo, don't be. It's designed with your safety in mind, and you can use it as often as you'd like without any negative effects. Just remember to take breaks and don't forget to hydrate (wink wink)!

TL;DR: the Gulaabo massager takes me from bud to blossom

Are you still on the fence?

Let me be clear: I love it. So does my partner.

If you’re looking for an honest toy that can both suck and vibrate your bits (though not at the same time), you would do an injustice to yourself and your body if you purchase anything other than the Gulaabo Personal Massager. It’s a genuinely powerful dual-usage toy that does EXACTLY what it promises to do.
