Let’s talk about something I genuinely love talking about: self-pleasure.
Ladie, yes, you. Let’s be honest for a moment. Between school runs, work deadlines, WhatsApp groups you never agreed to join, Zoom calls that could have been emails, and trying to remember where you left your glasses (spoiler: they’re on your head), it’s very easy to forget one crucial thing: your pleasure matters too.
Somewhere along the way, many of us were taught that pleasure was optional. A “nice to have.” Something to get around to once everyone else was fed, watered, and emotionally supported. But masturbation isn’t indulgent, it’s empowering. It’s stress relief without a prescription. It’s better sleep without counting sheep. And it’s a reminder that your body is yours not just a vehicle for carrying bags, children, and the mental load of an entire household.
Enter LELO, the Ferrari of pleasure products. Sleek, luxurious, beautifully engineered, and completely unapologetic. This is not a plastic panic-buy from the bottom drawer of a chemist. This is grown-woman pleasure. The kind that says, “I know what I like, and I’m not embarrassed about it.
”And the star of the show? Soraya Wave.
First of all, it’s gorgeous. Properly gorgeous. The kind of thing you’d happily leave on your bedside table rather than hiding like a guilty secret. It’s elegant, sculptural, and feels more like a design object than a sex toy. But don’t let the beauty fool you, this thing means business.
The Soraya Wave is designed for dual stimulation, targeting both the G-spot and the clitoris at the same time. Essentially, it’s multitasking, something we women are extremely familiar with. Why have one sensation when you can have two, working in harmony, like a well-run household (but much more fun)?
One of its standout features is LELO’s patented WaveMotion™ Technology. Instead of just vibrating and hoping for the best, the internal arm moves in a gentle “come-hither” motion, like fingers that actually know what they’re doing. It’s subtle, rhythmic, and incredibly effective. I genuinely found myself thinking, “Well. That explains a lot.”
The ergonomic design and extended internal tip mean it works with your body rather than forcing you into awkward angles that feel like you’re doing yoga you didn’t sign up for. It’s intuitive, comfortable, and thoughtfully designed for different bodies, because shockingly, we’re not all built the same.
With 12 different settings, you can tailor the experience exactly to your mood. From soft and soothing (perfect for winding down after a long day of being everyone’s everything) to full-power “do not disturb.” You’re in complete control, no instructions, no pressure, just listening to what your body wants.
It’s also fully waterproof and made from ultra-soft, body-safe silicone. It feels warm and luxurious to the touch, never cold or clinical, and yes, it’s perfect for the bath or shower if that’s your idea of self-care. Candles optional. Locked door recommended.
Now for my honest take.
This toy made me laugh. Not because it was funny, but because of how unexpectedly effective it was. That surprised, slightly hysterical laugh that says, “Oh. So this is what I’ve been missing while I was busy doing literally everything else.” The dual stimulation feels uncannily intuitive, as if someone finally read the manual we were never given.
It’s indulgent, playful, and deeply affirming. It’s like fingers and fireworks had a very competent baby. I laughed, gasped, and yes… may have startled my dogs.
More than anything, the Soraya Wave is a reminder that pleasure is part of wellbeing. It’s confidence, connection, and claiming space for yourself, no apologies required.
If you’ve been curious, hesitant, or quietly disappointed before, this is the toy that genuinely changed the game for me.
Treat yourself. Laugh a little. Lock the door.
You deserve it.
