XtoysToosh Purple Silicone Butt Plug Small Review: A Gentle Starter
Editor's opinion
This is a genuine entry-level plug: slim at 2.8 cm, short in the insertable length, and made from body-safe silicone with a tapered tip. It suits first-timers and those wanting something modest, but the jewelled base and small size mean it is not the plug to grow into.
The Toosh Purple Silicone Butt Plug in small sets out to be an easy, unintimidating introduction to anal play. Everything about its dimensions and design points at the beginner: a slim width, a short insertable length, a tapered tip and a body made from soft silicone.
What a buyer needs to weigh is whether "small" is small enough or too small, how the jewelled base affects material care and long-term use, and how it compares with a plain-based silicone plug in the same category. Those are the honest questions this assessment works through.
The good and the bad
What works
- Slim 2.8 cm width suits genuine beginners
- Body-safe silicone that is easy to clean
- Tapered tip guides insertion
- No batteries or charging to think about
- Lightweight at 26g and easy to grip by the base
What to be aware of
- Insertable length of 6.5 cm is very modest, so growth room is limited
- Jewelled base is often a separate component, which can create a join to clean around
- Silicone body rules out silicone-based lubricants
- Decorative base is less discreet to wear than a plain flared base
Buy it if
Anyone new to anal play who wants a slim, manageable first plug, and experienced users who specifically prefer a compact, low-commitment fit.
Skip it if
If you already know you enjoy a fuller sensation, or expect to want more in short order, look at a medium width or a graduated set instead, as this plug offers little room to progress.
Design And Materials
The plug is made from soft silicone, which is the sensible default for anal play: it is non-porous, easy to sanitise and gentle against the skin. The tapered tip and smooth surface are exactly what you want for comfortable insertion, and at 26g there is very little weight pulling once it is in place.
The headline decorative feature is the jewelled base. It looks appealing, but a jewelled base is typically a metal or plastic setting fixed to the silicone, which means a hard element and often a seam where the two meet. That is worth knowing both for cleaning and because a rigid base sits differently against the body than the soft, all-silicone base of a plain plug.
Size And Who It Fits
At 2.8 cm wide with 6.5 cm insertable, this is comfortably in beginner territory. The narrow width is the part that matters most for a first plug, and this one keeps things gentle. The short insertable length also means it stays modest and easy to manage.
The flip side is that there is not much scope to progress. If you find you enjoy the sensation, you will likely reach for something larger fairly quickly. Toosh do make this in medium and large, so it can be treated as the first rung of a ladder rather than a single lifelong purchase.
Lubricant, Cleaning And Care
Because the body is silicone, you should pair it with a water-based lubricant. Silicone-based lubricants can degrade a silicone surface over time, so keep those away from it. Water-based lube is also the right choice for anal use generally, where generous application makes all the difference.
Wash it with warm water and a mild soap or a dedicated toy cleaner before and after use, and let it dry fully before storing. Pay particular attention to any join around the jewelled base, as decorative settings can trap residue in a way a smooth, seamless plug does not.
How It Compares
Against a plain silicone beginner plug, the Toosh trades a little practicality for looks. A one-piece silicone plug with a soft base is usually simpler to clean and more comfortable to wear for longer, while the jewelled base here adds visual appeal at the cost of a harder component.
Against a beginner set of graduated plugs, this is a single, cautious step. That is fine if you want to try one thing without committing, but a set can work out as better value if you already suspect you will want to size up.
The bottom line
As a first plug, the Toosh small does the important things right: it is slim, body-safe silicone, tapered and easy to handle. Buy it if you want a genuinely gentle introduction and like the jewelled look, but choose a larger size or a graduated set if you expect to want more, and be prepared to clean carefully around the decorative base.
Frequently asked questions
Is this plug suitable for a complete beginner?
Yes. The 2.8 cm width and short 6.5 cm insertable length put it firmly in beginner territory, and the tapered tip is designed to ease insertion. As with any anal play, go slowly and use plenty of lubricant.
What lubricant should I use with it?
A water-based lubricant. The silicone body means silicone-based lubricants should be avoided, as they can damage the surface over time. Water-based lube is also ideal for comfortable anal use.
Does it need batteries or charging?
No. This is a non-vibrating plug with no power source, so there is nothing to charge or replace. It is ready whenever you are.
How do I clean it, especially around the jewelled base?
Wash it with warm water and a mild soap or a dedicated toy cleaner before and after use. Take care around any join where the jewelled base meets the silicone, as decorative settings can trap residue, then dry it fully before storing.
Will I be able to size up later?
Yes. Toosh offer this plug in medium and large, so if you find the small comfortable and want more, you can move up while keeping the same familiar design.
