Wondering how to use a bullet vibrator? We’ve got your back. These tiny but mighty vibes are an excellent choice for those exploring vibrators for the first time.  

In a bustling sex tech world, we can easily over-focus on the bells and whistles of new sex technology. But no matter what new toys develop, bullet vibrators have lasted the test of time. 

And there are good reasons for this. 

Why bullet vibrators are so great

Bullet vibes are a no-frills sex toy. They’re simple but effective. These little pocket rockets are only around 3 to 4 inches long and utilize simple ascending vibration settings. (Intensity options start low, then strengthen gradually.)  

Because of their simple design, these vibrators are incredibly discreet, ​​great for travel, and are a wonderful addition to partnered sex. 

They’re primarily used for direct clit stimulation and should not be used for penetration. This works out for a lot of gals because only 18% of women can orgasm via penetration alone. Most of us need clitoral stimulation in order to climax. A trusty bullet vibe is a great option for this.

5 tips on how to use a bullet vibrator   

Using a vibrator might seem straightforward (apply to clit, boom done) but in taking that approach you’re seriously missing out. We advocate for taking things slow and building up. (Details below.)

It’s best to begin with a clean, fully charged vibrator. If you want, add some water-based lube for a frictionless glide.

Once you’ve done that, try these 5 top tips on how to use a bullet vibrator like a pro. 

#1 Be your own tease and build up to an orgasm  

Going for direct clitoral stimulation using the tip of the bullet vibrator will certainly deliver an orgasm quickly. But, without building up, it’s likely to be a quick and “shallow” orgasm. 

(Hey, there's no shame in that game.) 

But if you can take your time exploring broader vulva stimulation and teasing your way around your body with the bullet –– your orgasm will seriously thank you. 

You can totally go straight for the gold. But to experience a longer-lasting and intensified clitoral orgasm, take your time building up your arousal. 

Tease first, direct stimulation later. 

#2 Explore all erogenous zones 

You can use a bullet vibe all over the body to increase arousal. The best places to explore are your erogenous zones. When these points on the body are gently stimulated (with tickling, kissing, gentle touch, or vibration) sexual arousal is naturally heightened. 

Use this little massager to stimulate around the nipples, nape of the neck, stomach, and inner thighs before moving to the hotter spots. 

Try creating small circles, or gently tracing your curves with the vibrator. (Remember it’s all about a good build-up.)

#3 Start on the low end of the settings

If you’re new to vibrators, we recommend starting on the lowest setting before working your way up. 

At first, try using the vibrator lengthwise rather than at the tip. The tip is where there will be the most concentrated vibration. When working up, start horizontally, then enjoy the tip intensity later. 

#4 Use as a hands-free panty vibe

Try enjoying hands-free broad stimulation by laying the vibrator lengthwise in your panties. Yup, bullet vibrators make great panty vibes. And who doesn’t like a hands-free orgasm? 

After you’ve freed up your hands you’re free to touch yourself elsewhere or to turn the steamy pages of your favorite erotica. 

#5 Slip the bullet into partnered sex 

These little vibrators are amazing additions to partnered sex. They’re super small, won't get in the way, and both parties can enjoy them. After open communication and enthusiastic consent, bust out the bullet and try out these tips below.

How to use a bullet vibrator with a partner: 

  • Give your partner control and let them explore your body with the buzzing bullet while you get more and more aroused. The power play here is just delicious. 
  • Use it during penetration for blended orgasms. He can tease you with it or you can hold it in place.
  • Use as a teaser/primer during cunnilingus. (Vibrators are teammates, right?) 
  • For lesbian couples, bullets could be fun for mutual use. 
  • And yup, guys can enjoy these vibes too. Hold or slide the bullet vibrator lengthways along the shaft of the penis. 
  • Circularly stimulating the perineum with the tip for an external prostate massage.

How to take care of your bullet vibrator 

All sex toys are a bit different but there are some universally applicable rules when it comes to toy care.

All sex toys are best maintained if they are: 

  • Cleaned after every use with mild, unscented soap and warm water
  • Charged after every use (extends the life of the battery)
  • Used with water-based lubricant only
