Lovense Lush Anal Review – My Sex Toy Guide

If trying butt stuff was your New Year’s resolution this year, you’re in the right place. Lovense concocted a high-tech, no-experience-necessary vibrator for your ass. It’s beginner-friendly thanks to its incomparably slim dimensions, yet it incorporates Lovense’s state-of-the-art app and high-end features. Will this combination be a winner? No stone is left unturned in this butt plug review.

Key Takeaways

Lovense Lush Anal proves there is nothing to be nervous about for anal virgins. Exploring your backside can be intuitive and pain-free. This is one of the most feature-heavy butt plugs I’ve ever tried. The shape is perfect for first-time anal explorers, and the app is the icing on the cake. If you can afford it, this is the best first butt plug on the market.

The only drawback is that it’s small and can’t be scaled up. If you enjoy more pressure, length, and girth in general, this is a hard pass.

Who Should Try It? This is the ultimate purchase for someone brand new to anal pleasure and butt plugs. The size, design, and app-compatibility will ensure you have a pain-free, pleasure-filled experience. The app also makes it appealing for long-distance couples and those who need hands-free pleasure.

Who Can Skip It? If you’re looking for an anal toy to scale up so that you’re prepared for penetrative anal sex with an erection, this is not the butt plug you’re looking for. It’s very small and meant only for beginners. It also does not specifically target the perineum, so if you crave a P-spot orgasm, try another device like the LELO HUGO 2.

You Can Buy It on the official Lovense website for $129.

What Is the Lovense Lush Anal?

The Lovense Lush Anal is a vibrating butt plug meant for first-timers. Never had anything in your back door before? This is the butt plug for you. It’s as slim as a pinky finger, but the design is safe for anal use thanks to the flared base.

It’s also feature-rich. You can pair it with the Lovense app and give your long-distance partner control. You can sync it to the sound of your partner’s voice, try patterns that strangers have developed, or create something unique to you. It’s rechargeable, body-safe, waterproof, and quiet, making it an easy, if expensive, choice for a first sex toy.

How Do I Use the Lovense Lush Anal?

Unlike many butt plugs, the Lovense Lush Anal is a cinch to use. Its ease of use is largely due to its slim design. With other butt plugs, you need to warm up with a finger before inserting the toy, but not with this one. Simply charge it, wash it, and then use water-based lube on the internal arm as well as inside your anus. Slip the internal arm in and enjoy.

To turn the toy on, press the button on the external arm for three seconds. Pressing it briefly cycles you through the three preset intensities and five patterns. For more versatility and hands-free use, download the Lovense Remote app.

The website estimated that it would last for up to 237 minutes (I was quite gagged by the specificity) and would take 45 minutes to charge. That’s an out-of-this-world charge-to-use battery life ratio. When I tested it, it took around fifty-five minutes to reach a full charge and then lasted just over four hours on the first setting. At higher settings, the battery died much more quickly, lasting about an hour on the top setting.

To charge the Lovense Lush Anal, align the magnetic charger to the charging pins on the toy. While charging, it will be lit red (it should look like the image above), and when finished, the light will turn off. When you first turn the toy on, the LED light will blink a few times, signaling the remaining battery level with the colors green, yellow, and red. Unless you customize it in the app, the Lush Anal will blink red during use.

When you’re finished playing, wash the Lovense Lush Anal and store it in the box it came in or a makeup bag.

My Personal Experience

Whenever I receive a Lovense sex toy, my first question is: what can’t you do with it? That’s because the versatility of their app-compatible devices is unparalleled. It’s an app that makes their products futuristic, fun, and simple. That was the case with this first-time butt plug, too. The smartphone app worked well, as it always does. The connectivity was reliable, and the versatility was supreme. I had fun letting internet strangers control it temporarily, joining in on synchronized orgasms, and gamifying my masturbation experience.

I immediately fell in love with the design. It’s the smallest butt plug I’ve used, and it has the least bulbous shape. That maximizes comfort and makes it accessible even for people who haven’t considered anal play before. It’s the most beginner-friendly butt plug I’ve ever tried. However, the easy-to-insert size also makes it a little more precarious as a wearable vibrator. This one is so slim that I’d be nervous to wear it out. One sneeze and it could be game over.

I tried the Lovense Lush Anal, and so did my partner, and we both agreed it was the most comfortable butt plug we’ve ever used. It’s also the smallest, slimmest, and easiest to insert. I wish I had had this for my first time! It makes the user’s introduction to anal play gentle and straightforward. Everything intimidating about anal pleasure is eliminated. And it’s a toy that brings pleasure to people of all genders.

The battery life is clutch, too. Since it’s a small vibe, it’s perfect for edging, tantra, and public play—for those who dare to wear this very slim butt plug out and about. It looks cute while worn, too, thanks to the LED light show. And I could use it for hours without any discomfort or need to reapply lubricant.

The biggest question I have about Lovense Lush Anal is whether first-time anal toy purchasers would be willing to spend the money to get something so high-end. This product retails for $260, but was on sale for half that when I received it. $130 is still a high price, but it is an absolute steal for something so easy to use and so adaptable. If I could go back in time and buy my first butt plug over again, I would 100% get the Lovense Lush Anal.

Packaging

Lovense’s packaging is pretty and practical and Lush Anal comes in a sturdy box that you can use for storage (you can see it in the image below). It doesn’t come with a storage bag or lube, two purchases you may want to make in advance. It is giftable, and the unboxing feels like a splurge, which is a necessary indulgence at this price point.

Design

I’ve encountered so many anal vibrators that profess to be beginner-friendly and yet are not. Check the photo below: this butt plug is basically the size of my pinky. That is exactly the shape and size you want to start with the very first time you engage in anal exploration. The design couldn’t be more beginner-friendly.

One of the perks of the design is the LED-lit tail. You can control what colors glow in the app, making it a multi-sensory experience. It feels like there’s a dance party under the sheets, and it can make partnered sex extra memorable. It’s mesmerizing, and I’m obsessed with this function. You can also turn it off if you plan to use the butt plug for public play.

One thing to note is that no part targets the prostate. It will add a tingle of anal pleasure, but it’s so thin that it may not result in a prostate orgasm. It’s comfortable enough to use as a public play toy and wear for hours, but it’s so slim that I was nervous it would fall out.

Material

The Lovense Lush Anal is made from body-safe, waterproof materials like silicone and electroplated plastic. It’s every bit as pretty as it looks in the pictures. The manual mentions that everything Lovense makes is environmentally friendly and harmless for human use, which is music to my ears. The material is lavish and easy to clean.

Stimulations

The very first setting packs a wallop of powerful vibrations, which is always a good sign. The first two settings have a whisper of a rumble, and it gets buzzier from there. The stimulations were more than enough for my partner and me, and the vibrations worked well as a clit vibrator, too. Expect lots of power for such a small package.

Sound Level

When I tested the battery level, I wore this vibrator in my pants pocket all day, and not a soul noticed. That’s how quiet it is on the first level. When I tested the decibels, they ranged from 36 to 52, but the sound is nearly whisper-quiet once in place. It’s undetectable as long as there is a hint of background noise.

Build Quality and Dimensions

The build quality of this anal vibrator is gorgeous. It’s high-end, top-of-the-line; I cannot praise it enough. The external tail has an LED light that makes the experience even more of a feast for the senses. And the blend of materials is seamless.

The dimensions are where it really shines, though. This is the first truly beginner-friendly butt plug I’ve come across. You can use it without warming up with a finger, and that makes experimentation a lot easier and more comfortable. It’s small yet powerful and an absolute dream for anal newbies.

Ease of Use

When the versatility score is high, you can typically expect ease of use to be low. That’s because you must learn to use all the different features. Fortunately, Lovense has nailed how to make features easy to use. But you will still need to try the Lush Anal a few times before your body adjusts to it and learns whether you enjoy the functionality. If this is your first sex toy purchase, give yourself 3-5 times to adjust to the app, the button function, and the different rhythms and intensity levels.

The Lush Anal is refreshingly easy to use from start to finish. Since it’s waterproof, cleaning is easy as pie. You don’t have to worry about submerging it; just wash it with warm water and antibacterial soap, then let it dry before storing.

Another factor contributing to the ease of use is its one-button interface (image above). If you don’t want to deal with the app, all those backdoor vibes plus three intensity levels and five patterns are available with the touch of one button.

Versatility

The Lovense Lush Anal gets 10/10 for versatility. This anal toy has nearly limitless versatility.  It’s excellent for people of any gender. It works for long-distance couples. It offers hands-free pleasure. And it is made from waterproof and body-safe materials. If you have a clit and decide that you don’t want to use it anally, you can easily switch it for use as a regular bullet-esque vibe—which I did several times. There is nothing this vibrating butt plug can’t do, except ramp up in size for anal training.

Lovense Remote App

The Lovense app is one of my all-time favorite sex toy apps. It is easy to use and has reliable connectivity. The app itself is intuitive and techy. Plus, it works well for cammers who can enable tipping for different functions. It also helps you involve all your senses, something most sex toys could only dream of accomplishing. For instance, you can alter the cat-eye LED light on the tail. You could also sync the vibrations with your favorite song. These small changes can help you customize this toy into something unique that is tailor-made for your anal pleasure.

To start using the Lovense Remote app, download it on your phone. Then pair it with the plug by pressing the plus button and then selecting “add toy”. Hold the on button until the toy is in pairing mode (the light will turn blue), and the app will connect to it automatically.

Once inside the Lovense Remote app, you will have access to the many entertaining, versatile ways to operate this vibrating butt plug. You can create your own pattern or see what others who have purchased the same vibrator enjoy. You can use a control link to send to your long-distance partner to give them control, or to give to someone in your audience if you’re livestreaming as a cammer. And you can even use a control link anonymously with a stranger on the app whenever you’re feeling daring. There’s a chat function, too, so that you can chat with whoever has control of your vibrating butt plug, as well as video and voice calling.

You can sync the vibrations to music in the Beat Sync page, or play a game that rewards you with stronger vibrations. There’s also the Pattern Plaza, where you can join a group of people who are all using the same pattern at the same time. It’s sexy anonymous togetherness, and it’s a unique experience unlike anything else I’ve tried. There’s also Speed Mode, where your vibrator intensifies in tandem with your acceleration, which makes driving to date night a lot more interesting.

These features are so much fun; it’s truly a one-of-a-kind masturbation experience. To get the most out of it, you’d have to spend weeks tooling around the app. The Lovense Remote app provides endless fun, creativity, and customizability, and it makes masturbation so much more than a quick path toward orgasm. Who knows, you could even make a friend who loves anal vibration as much as you do!

Warranty and Support

Lovense Lush Anal is covered by a one-year warranty. The brand also offers a ten-year quality guarantee, which provides you a discount on your next device once your first purchase wears out.

Minor Issues I Found During Testing

To be perfectly honest, I found no issues during Lovense Lush Anal’s testing. The only drawbacks are the drawbacks of any sex tech device: it can’t be everything, and it won’t work for everybody. The Lush Anal won’t work for people who want a large size, intense pressure, or something that targets the perineum. It’s also pricey for a vibrator meant for beginners. Other than that, it’s bound to please.

Alternatives to the Lovense Lush Anal

Lovense Hush 2

Lovense Hush 2 was the slimmest butt plug I have used until I tried the Lush Anal. It’s luxurious, black, and has impressive stimulations. The Hush 2 is compatible with the Lovense Remote app, so you have access to the same long-distance and gamification features. It comes with a slinky black storage bag and a recharging cable, but it’s not as easy to insert as the Lush Anal. On the other hand, it stays in as a wearable well. The Hush 2 may be the next stop if you plan to gauge up sizes slowly. You could grab a Hush 2 for $200.

b-Vibe Rimming Plug

The b-Vibe Rimming Plug is an excellent choice for someone who wants a semi-realistic rimming experience. It has a series of beads around the neck, the portion of the body that is around the opening of the anus, that rotate when turned on, simulating licking. It also offers internal anal vibration, or the combination of both stimulations for you to choose from. The neck of the b-Vibe Rimming Plug is sizeable, so this won’t work for longer-term wear or public play because your anus will tire of the size more quickly.

It comes with a remote control but isn’t app-compatible, so it’s not the best choice for long-distance partners, but it will work for hands-free stimulation. It’s also splash-proof rather than waterproof, so it won’t work for shower fun and is a bit more complicated to clean. The Rimming Plug can be yours for $165.

LELO HUGO 2

Anyone seeking high-end prostate stimulation should consider purchasing the LELO HUGO 2 instead. It is similarly expensive (retailing for $189), and it is designed with prostate-targeting vibration. If you’ve never had a P-spot orgasm before, this is a tool that can help you reach your goals.

The LELO HUGO 2 comes with either a remote control or app compatibility, and it is a gorgeous, sleek black. The battery life is much shorter, but it also has a motor meant to stimulate the perineum. It’s a must-have for those who want an opulent, dual-stimulation prostate massager, but it’s not the ideal purchase for beginners, as the shape is much more intimidating and will take a while to work up to.
