Lovense Lush Mini Review – My Sex Toy Guide

Good things come in small packages, which is perhaps why Lovense has made a mini version of their stellar wearable G-spot vibrator, the Lush 4. In addition to being quiet, wearable, waterproof, and boasting an LED light show, this vibrator now comes in a smaller shape that encourages lengthy foreplay sessions. This luxury app-compatible egg vibrator is smaller but as potent as her big sister. Does it belong in your nightstand? Find out in my extensive review!

Key Takeaways

I loved the Lovense Lush 4, but I was excited to see if the smaller version could match the pleasure its big sister delivered. To my delight, it was every bit as powerful but more comfortable to wear for longer periods. It’s perfect for tantra, date night, and anytime you want some buzzy pleasure. Since it is smaller and still just as powerful, I will be using the Lovense Lush Mini more than its predecessor.

Who Should Try It? If you have vaginal pain but have been dying to dip your toes into public play, this little cutie is the best choice. Anyone who has been intimidated by other wearables will find this a comfortable choice that stays in place, yet it is easy for first-timers to use.

Who Can Skip It? If you already have Lush 4, it only makes sense to buy Lush Mini if you prefer smaller toys, find the insertion painful, or find the size of the former uncomfortable during long play sessions.

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

What Is the Lovense Lush Mini?

The Lovense Lush Mini is a smaller version of the Lovense Lush 4. The website describes it as a remote-controlled G-spot egg vibrator, but it doesn’t come with a remote control. Instead, it’s app-compatible for long-distance and public play. It’s waterproof and has an impressive battery life. Plus, it’s a feast for the senses, courtesy of the customizable LED light show on the external arm.

First Impressions and Features

Unboxing

The Lovense unboxing experience is gratifying. It’s not over the top, but it comes with the essentials, like instructions and a charging cable (you can see all the items in the image below). Additionally, both billing and shipping are discreet, which is a plus. My only gripe is that it’s missing a storage bag and lube.

The Lovense Lush Mini has sizeable features, including:

• 7,000 vibrations per minute
• Rechargeable and IPX7 waterproof
• Customizable light show
• App-compatibility for long-distance play and remote control

Specifications

Lovense Lush Mini specifications:

• Material: Silicone and electroplated plastic
• Size: 1.2” insertable diameter, 3.79” length, 2.76” height
• Color: Hot pink
• Mechanism: G-spot vibration
• Weight: 2.1 ounces

How Do I Use the Lovense Lush Mini?

Using the Lovense Lush Mini is easy and fun. After the egg vibrator discreetly arrives on your doorstep, charge it. Align the magnetic pins with the charger, and when you have it in the correct place, the LED light will turn red (it should look like the image below). When the device is finished charging, the light turns off. When I tested the battery, it lasted three hours and ten minutes on the first setting after a full charge and then took less than one hour to recharge. The website estimated that it would last up to four hours and that seven minutes of charging would equal one hour of playtime, so it didn’t quite live up to that hype during my testing, but it wasn’t too far off.

Downloading the app and getting comfortable with the layout while the Lush Mini charges will make playtime that much simpler. If you’re going to have your partner play with you, have them download the app as well. Then, when you’re both online, you can send your partner a control link to surrender control of the vibrator to them temporarily.

If you’d prefer to use the button on the Lush Mini, that works as well. However, you won’t be able to deactivate the LED lights, so you may need to wear dark, thick clothes if you plan to engage in public play. To turn on the egg vibrator, hold the button down for three seconds. Then, a brief press of the button will take you through low, medium, and high intensities, followed by four preset patterns. Press and hold the button again to turn the toy off.

When you’re ready to graduate to using the app, press the button until the toy vibrates. Open the app, and you should see the device listed. Selecting the Lush Mini will connect it to your app. After that, you can build your own patterns, play with patterns others have created, sync them with sounds or music, and more. You can customize or turn off the LED light settings in the app as well.

Now it’s time to get turned on. Listen to erotica, watch porn, or do whatever you do to get in the mood. To insert the G-spot vibe, find some water-based lubricant, as it is the most compatible lube for a silicone vibrator. Place lube on the internal arm of the vibrator and in and around your vagina as well. Slide in the internal, bulbous arm until it feels comfortable. It should easily reach your G-spot. Experiment with the various patterns, and consider wearing it for a while before engaging in foreplay with your partner.

When playtime is over, turn the vibe off, wash it with warm water and antibacterial soap, and then find a good spot to store it. The best idea is to purchase a makeup bag or other small, cloth storage pouch to keep it away from other silicone toys and out of the elements.

My Personal Experience

Bigger isn’t always better, which is the drum I’ve been banging since I got into the sex toy game. The more we learn about AFAB anatomy, the more we are learning that fast, enormous, and intense isn’t always the quickest path to orgasm. And Lovense clearly gets it. I loved the Lovense Lush 4, but I was excited to see if the smaller version could match the pleasure its big sister delivered. To my delight, it was every bit as powerful but more comfortable to wear.

When I tried it, it became quickly apparent that the Lovense Lush Mini isn’t that much smaller. When I checked on the website, it said it is 32% smaller. The original is a reasonably average-sized egg, and 32% less than that wasn’t a huge size difference to me. Only the bulb is smaller—the overall length is the same, so it reached my G-spot with ease.

It was far more comfortable to play with this egg for longer periods. It’s perfect for tantra, date night, and anytime you want some buzzy pleasure. Since it is smaller and still just as powerful, I will be using the Lovense Lush Mini more than its predecessor.

The light show is sexy, and the idea of playing in public feels downright naughty, too. But it’s easy to learn how to use this beauty, and it makes date night foreplay feel less intimidating. I appreciated the smaller size as well, since sometimes larger toys feel bulky, especially after hours of edging.

Packaging

As you can see in the image below, Lovense revamped its packaging, and the Lush Mini now features a sleek black interior. It is gently tucked into the box, along with instructions and a USB charging cable. At this price point, I wish it came with a storage bag (and some lube!) But, alas, it does not, so plan to grab some before your next solo play time!

Design

The design of the Lush Mini is nearly indistinguishable from its predecessor, the Lush 4, since they are both egg-shaped vibrators with a powerful internal motor and a lighted external tail. The external tail doesn’t have a motor, and minimal vibrations travel to it, so it is only functional as a G-spot vibrator. The shape of the egg naturally seeks out and puts pressure on your G-spot. If you take it out, the internal egg works well as a clit vibrator, though the C-shape prevents it from staying put very easily.

Fortunately, the decrease in size doesn’t make this feel any less secure during wear. I never once worried it was about to fall out, but I did wear panties to give myself an extra layer of reassurance. The design is flexible and durable, which is a tricky balance to find, but Lovense does it flawlessly.

Material

The Lush Mini is made from velvety, uber-soft silicone. It’s IPX7 waterproof, so you can submerge it and wash it easily. It’s perfect for bathtub or shower play, and it feels like a dream against your most sensitive skin.

Stimulations

As soon as I turned the motor on to test the battery, I was impressed. The vibes are strong and surprisingly rumbly, yet they are also quiet and originate from a smaller motor. As soon as my partner felt it, he too noticed how potent the stimulations are. Lovense didn’t sacrifice an ounce of power with the size decrease.

Sound Level

The website said that the Lush Mini would be as quiet as 36 decibels, which is quiet indeed. The noise from my house is usually around 30-32 decibels. I took this vibe to the coffee shop with me, and none of my friends noticed the noise coming from my pocket. When I tested the sound level, it ranged between 37and 57 decibels. And it’s much quieter when you get it in place—nearly undetectable. I felt entirely comfortable wearing this and answering the door when a package arrived, but I would also feel comfortable wearing it to the grocery store or other low-noise spots.

Build Quality and Dimensions

Lovense is nothing if not consistent. Their products are always seamless, gorgeous, and durable. There is nothing flimsy about them, which makes sense, given the price. Although the dimensions are smaller on this vibrator, the motor is just as powerful, and it easily reached my G-spot.

Lovense App

The Lovense app adds so much versatility to this egg vibrator. It’s a must-try! The app turns your phone into a remote control, giving you easier access to adjust the sensations. You also have a lot more settings to play with—unlimited patterns are at your fingertips. You can send long-distance control to your partner no matter where they might be, using the Control Link feature in the app. Syncing the vibrations to your playlist and sounds in your area is also an option. Lastly, you can gamify your masturbation sesh with the app, making it even more fun to climax. Most of the games seemed geared towards men, but it’s still an enjoyable option to have.

If you’re feeling adventurous, you can try the roulette, which allows someone you don’t know to control your vibrator temporarily. Chatting anonymously with them is also on the table. You can download and use patterns that others have created and enjoyed. Further, the Lush Mini is a tip-activated G-spot vibe, so it’s an ideal choice for cammers who want to use the app to engage with their audience.

In the Lovense app, you can turn off the LED light if you find it distracting or adjust it to your preference. You can also choose a combination of colors or one solid color if you’d like to incorporate the light. The light changes as you adjust the intensity or pattern, adding an amusing element. Though it’s tough to see clearly in the video, the light it emits is stunning. Keep in mind that the light is lit during charging, so you may want to turn this feature off in the app after each use, if you charge your sex toys by your bed like I do.

The Lovense app had consummate connectivity while I used it, and I never experienced a problem or delay. It’s every bit as modern as it seems in the video. And the adjustments I made in strength and pattern happened in real time, without lag.

Ease of Use

As you can see in the image below, this is a one-function device with a one-button interface. It couldn’t be easier to use. But you can get extra utility out of it if you learn how to use it with the app.

Versatility

The Lovense Lush Mini is every bit as versatile as the Lovense Lush 4, but it’s still an egg vibrator that’s only meant for G-spot stimulation. The lack of a flared base makes it unsafe for use as an anal toy, and though you can use it as a clit vibrator (I did!), it’s not the most intuitive shape for that, since you are fighting the c-curve.

Thanks to the app capabilities, I was pleasantly surprised by its versatility. It’s waterproof, so it can go anywhere. Long-distance couples will be happy with its expansive app-powered possibilities. The Lush Mini is quiet and comfortable for tantra, teasing, edging, and long bouts of public play. And the external tail is lit (as I demonstrate below), adding an extra element of sensory pleasure. You can use it hands-free, too.

What’s more, you can use this vibrator alone or in a set. Lovense also has the Ferri, a panty vibe that stays put. Or, if your partner has a penis, they could use the Lovense Gush 2 in tandem for a long-distance party. It’s wearable, pairable, and pleasurable!

Warranty and Support

Lovense offers a one-year warranty on the Lush Mini.

Minor Issues I Found During Testing

The Lovense Lush Mini is pricey unless it’s on sale. Other than the price, I loved every aspect of this comfy wearable vibe.

Alternatives to the Lovense Lush Mini

Lush 4

The Lush Mini is 32% smaller than the Lush 4, according to the website. It’s only the bulbous internal egg that’s smaller, not the cord or the attaching external arm. Since that’s where the motor is, you might expect a significant decrease in power, but that’s not the case. The website claimed that they would be equal in power, and they were. The Lush 4 and the Lush Mini are the same price and boast the same amount of power, so you’ll have to decide based primarily on size. Some other notable differences are that the Lush 4 battery lasted longer and has a slightly better Bluetooth range.

We-Vibe Jive 2

The We-Vibe Jive 2 is similar to the Lush 4 and the Lush Mini, since it’s a bright pink, app-compatible, wearable egg vibrator. However, the Jive 2 comes with a remote control. The Jive 2 doesn’t stimulate the clit any more than the Lush Mini does, so if you need dual stimulation, you’ll have to look elsewhere. The Jive 2 costs $139, making it less expensive than the Lush 4 and Lush Mini. It comes with a storage bag, which is another plus, but Lovense offers the superior app experience.
