What is a rose toy?
A rose toy is a palm-sized, clitoral suction toy that’s shaped (you guessed it!) like a flower. This small, silicone clitoral stimulator is made for vulvas, but you can introduce it to other erogenous zones too.
Plenty of people have been a fan of this sexy little gadget for some time, but the rose toy really made a name for itself on TikTok in 2024. Believe the hype because this clitoral stimulator is a social-media star for good reason: influencers around the world were left speechless (and breathless!) by the suction power of this innocent-looking toy.
How does a rose toy work?
Essentially, the rose toy works by stimulating oral sex. Rather than massaging your G-spot, like a dildo can, the rose stimulates external pleasure points with a sucking sensation.
But how? Well, the Lovehoney Rose toy uses our patented Pleasure Air Technology to suck air through the centre of the flower – while the toy’s soft, lip-like petals pulsate. Pleasure Air Technology is uniquely brilliant at teasing the clitoris; it creates massaging and pulsating sensations through changes in air pressure – while focusing on the skin around your clitoris to avoid overstimulation.
Given that 36.6% of women need clitoral stimulation to reach orgasm – and another 36% don’t need it to climax but their orgasms feel better if they do – it’s no wonder the rose toy is proving so popular.
How to use a rose toy
Before you buy your rose sex toy, make sure the one you’ve chosen is made of high-quality silicone. It’s this material that makes the soft, fluttery petals feel so sensual against your skin.
- Experiment with the different suction modes on your palm first, so you know what to expect before you start. It’s super easy to turn your toy on and switch between intensity levels using the two-button control. To build a little anticipation, tease your toy over other erogenous zones (like your nipples) before you touch your clitoris.
- Coat the petals in lube. This will help the toy glide over your erogenous zones, enhancing your pleasure. Bear in mind; you’ll need water-based lube because other types can degrade silicone over time.
- Hold the rose’s petals against your vulva — gently at first. Imagine where you’d like a lover to suck and lick your labia and clitoris, and you can’t go far wrong in placing your rose! If you’re not getting in the zone, try kneeling or straddling a pillow before pressing the toy to your clitoris. Rock your hips a little in this position, moving your vulva against the rose petals to get yourself really turned on.
- If you have penetrative sex with a partner, use the rose toy to stimulate your clitoris at the same time. This incredible combo could give you intense, blended orgasms. Thank us later!
What’s the best rose toy?
While the classic Lovehoney Rose is a huge hit, our top pick for the best rose toy is the Lovehoney Rose Glow 2-in-1. That’s right, the Rose got a glow-up! The Rose Glow 2-in-1 has both internal and external stimulation covered, thanks to the attached vibrating love egg — and it’s fair to say our customers are obsessed.
Sentient6 says: “This toy is a game changer. It gets the job done better than a man.” And another rose-loving customer found that, “[while] it could be quieter, it didn't wake the neighbours. But I think that I did!”.
If you’re after something simpler, the Fifty Shades of Grey Black Rose is an elegant twist on the Lovehoney Rose — with customers leaving comments like: “whoever invented these things deserves a Nobel prize or something. The different modes are great... if you last long enough to try more than one!”
How long does a rose toy take to charge?
The Lovehoney Rose is USB-rechargeable and takes 60 minutes to charge, with a runtime up to 65 minutes. Always check the product details of your suction toy for its charge and use times. You should be able to find this info in the user guide that came with your toy.
One thing we're asked a lot is whether you can use your Apple watch charging cable to charge your rose toy – afraid not! You’ll need a standard magnetic charging cable, rather than an Apple watch cable.
