What do Fleshlights feel like?

The Fleshlight brand is based primarily around a male masturbation aid that gets its name from the hard outer canister that looks just like a standard flashlight or torch. This look allows for discreet storage of your toy – if it’s found nobody would even guess it’s a sex toy!

This range of toys is designed for very realistic solo play experiences that simulate real vaginal or anal penetrative sex. They can also be used as a training device to increase a man’s sexual stamina.

The inventor of the Fleshlight was an unlikely creator, an American policeman named Steve Shubin. His wife was pregnant with twins and her doctor recommended against sex during her high-risk pregnancy. Finding nothing on the market to meet his needs, Steve and his wife Kathy invested over $50K to invent the “Super Skin” material and came out with the first Fleshlight toy in 1997. It was branded to be classy, sleek and sexy – unlike the other products on the market which Steve considered sleazy.

Fleshlight toys are hot sellers across both our website and retail stores, as they come in so many different options that give a range of truly different sensual experiences. The range is so popular, statistics indicate that 75% of worldwide sex toy sales belong to the Fleshlight brand.

The soft inner sleeves come in over 100 different textural options and simulate both penetrative and oral sex, along with various colour options across the range that I’ll describe later. Most men have more than one Fleshlight in their toybox so that they can enjoy different feelings and textures!

One of the pros of the Fleshlight over other types of masturbation sleeves on the market is how easy the hard outer sleeve is to hold during use and how easy it is to clean for reuse. These features are a trade-off for the Fleshlight’s higher price point.

Another reason for their huge popularity is the high-quality materials and amount of testing the company performs on the toys. The soft inner sleeve of the Fleshlight is made from patented “Real Feel Super Skin” that is the softest and most pliable material available on the sex toy market. It simulates the feel of real skin and is a fully body-safe material. The sleeves supply intense customisable suction and incorporate multiple chambers of bumps and passages for intense stimulation during use. A cap on the end of the toy gives you control over the venting, so you can control the amount of suction.

The soft inner sleeve material can be renewed to its original feel after each clean by using the Fleshlight Renew Powder. Regular use of the toys can wear away the soft surface of the inner sleeve. The conditioning powder, made from corn starch, restores the feel back to it’s original “Super-Skin” softness. Just remove the inner sleeve and, after cleaning, sprinkle on enough powder to completely cover the surface with a thin layer. Re-insert the inner sleeve back into the outer canister and your toy is ready to go for next time.

The original Fleshlight model is the Original Pink Lady Vortex, and this model is designed to feel like the vagina of a young tight woman with multiple spiralled tunnels in the inner sleeve for high intensity solo play.

Over the years, Fleshlight has extended the range with Fleshlight Girls. These models allow you to experience the pleasures of your favourite adult erotica stars. These come in both vagina and butt models that are moulded as exact replicas of the orifices of famous adult erotica stars. Every version of the adult erotica star Fleshlights has a unique internal pattern of textures, with the anal version of the sleeve being tighter to be fully realistic. The butt version is also available as Fleshlight Boys with orifices moulded from male adult erotica stars.

As part of the range, Fleshlight also has several versions with different size and visual features.

The Fleshlight GO – Torque Ice is a smaller version that has a clear see-through external canister for viewing pleasure. So, if you’re a visual pleasure seeker this one will give you an extra reason to get excited!

If oral sex is your favourite pleasure, there are a couple of options. The Fleshlight Turbo Thrust Blue Ice has a see-through outer canister and see-through light blue inner sleeve that is designed with lips, tongue and throat surfaces for a realistic blow job feel.  Reviewers comment that it feels “just like getting head” and gives a “100% orgasm record”.

Another oral sex simulator is the Fleshskins Blue Ice. This is a unique Fleshlight that does not incorporate the typical hard outer case. It consists of a light blue see-through soft inner sleeve that has finger grip holes on one side. Having only the inner sleeve allows you to control the grip and intensity using your hand on the outside of the soft sleeve.

The Fleshlight Quickshot Vantage is the smallest toy in the Fleshlight range but is such a great option as it can be used for either solo or couples play. The Vantage is compact, convenient, and affordable and gives you a variety of different options for use. Similar to the larger Fleshlights the toy has a see-through hard plastic outer case with the “Super-Skin” sleeve inside. The toy is dual orifice as it has a cap on each end that can be removed. You can enjoy play with one cap off or both off for a completely different experience. 

With one end cap on it functions like a miniature version of the larger Fleshlight and you will feel suction as you move it back and forth over your shaft. If you take both caps off, you can slide the sleeve fully over your penis. This is the way my partner loves to use it. He says it gives him incredible sensations as it’s nice and tight and lets him build up to an intense orgasm. With both caps off and his penis fully inserted I’m able to caress the end of his penis with my tongue for extra enjoyment!

The Quickshot Vantage also comes in a combo pack with Fleshlight brand lube and antibacterial cleaner.

Fleshlight also has a range of dildo’s called Fleshlight Guys. These are moulded from the penises of international adult erotica stars such as Manuel Ferrara and Ryan Driller. They have a realistic feel with veined shafts and squeezable balls. Designed so you can live out your adult erotica star fantasies at home they can be used with or without the suction cap accessory (sold separately). As an added bonus they fit most harness types, so can also be used by couples for some pegging fun.

Other accessories available in the Fleshlight range are the Sleeve Warmer that heats up your inner sleeve before use for a totally realistic experience. You can also purchase a Shower Mount and strap that lets you enjoy your toys hands free. As mentioned above, Fleshlight also has their own lube and antibacterial cleaner. One I didn’t mention is the Fleshlight Fire warming lube which is a water-based lube option that gives that extra heating sensation!

There are also a couple of combo packs that come with a selection of different accessories such as the Fleshlight Go Torque Combo and the Fleshlight STU value pack.

If you are looking for a top of the range realistic experience, you can’t go wrong with the Fleshlight range. Take a look through the options I’ve discussed and pick the one that sounds like a good fit for your favourite senses. All those men can’t be wrong and I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.
