Blush Anal Adventures Matrix Atomic Plug - Martian Wine

The Blush Anal Adventures Matrix Atomic Plug is a rechargeable anal plug with a remote control, combining three movements: vibration, a shaft that twists on itself and a row of rotating beads. It measures 14,6 cm in total length, of which 10,2 cm is insertable, and it is 3,8 cm wide. You get 10 vibration modes, 5 shaft rotation speeds and another 5 for the beads. It is fully submersible with an IPX7 rating, remote included, and runs for about 45 min per charge.

Who it suits and who it doesn't

If you enjoy playing in water, both the plug and the remote can be submerged, so the bath is no problem. It offers plenty of fun for couples: the wireless remote lets your partner choose the rhythms and speeds. If you want more than vibration, you'll find three movements you can combine, plus a shaft that bends to change how wide the rotation swings. If you have sensitive skin or a latex allergy, it offers some peace of mind: it contains no latex, fragrances, phthalates or paraffins, and the brand presents it as hypoallergenic.

How to use it and look after it

1. Before you insert it, bend the shaft to the position you like: the more you curve it, the more the rotation changes, from a contained movement to a wide one.
2. Insert it tip first, as it tapers to make entry easier, until the wide base rests outside and holds it in place.
3. With the 4-function wireless remote, you control the vibration with its 10 modes, the shaft rotation and the bead rotation separately, each with 5 speeds.

It runs on a rechargeable battery using the Magna Charge system. On a full battery, you get about 45 min of use.

• It can be submerged in water.
• Use it with a water-based lubricant.

Compatibility

• Lubricant: Anal Adventures considers it safe to use with water-based and hybrid lubricants.
• Water: It has an IPX7 rating and is submersible, remote included, so you can use it in the shower or the bath.
• Charging: It recharges with the Magna Charge system and gives about 45 min on a full charge.
• Remote: You control it with a 4-function wireless remote, no app needed.
• Skin: It is free from latex, fragrances, phthalates and paraffins, and the brand describes it as hypoallergenic.

General tips

Common good practice for this type of product; these are not the manufacturer's instructions.

• The anus doesn't lubricate itself: use plenty of lube and add more as soon as you feel any friction.
• Start slowly with your body relaxed, breathing deeply as you insert it. If you feel pain, stop: anal play should never be forced.
• Don't move it from the anus to the vagina without washing it first, or change the condom covering it.
• To remove it, pull gently on the base and take your time; a little more lube helps.
• The first few times, wear it only briefly and gradually increase the time as you feel comfortable.
• Start at the lowest intensity and work up gradually: that way you'll find the rhythm you like sooner.
• Charge it fully before first use and, if you go a while without using it, give it a charge now and then: the battery holds up better if it isn't left flat for long.

How it differs

• Pipedream Remote Control Silicone Plug: Both have a wireless remote, but the Matrix Atomic Plug is IPX7 and submersible, remote included, whereas the Pipedream Remote Control Silicone Plug is only stated to be water-resistant and gives no IPX rating. The Matrix suits you better if you want to use it in the bath; the Pipedream, with 9,7 cm insertable against 10,2 cm, suits anyone after a slightly shorter plug with vibration only.
• Honey Play Box Noah Blue: The Honey Play Box Noah Blue is controlled through an app that lets you customise patterns and make it vibrate to music, and its battery lasts 55 min against the Matrix's 45. The Matrix, on the other hand, uses a physical remote and separates vibration, shaft rotation and bead rotation, each with its own settings. If you'd rather control it from your phone, go for the Noah; if you want more control over each movement, choose the Matrix.

Before first use, read the manufacturer's instructions that come with the product: they are the reference for its use, cleaning and safety.
