Love to Love Open Roses Medium Silicone Butt Plug – Plum Star

The Love to Love Open Roses Medium is a silicone butt plug with a flared base shaped like an open rose, finished here in deep Plum Star. It's soft and flexible, with a gradual taper that makes insertion feel steady and controlled, and the flower at the base gives you something easy to hold when it's time to take it out. It suits people moving past their first anal toy who want a plug that looks as good as it feels.

A taper that does the work for you

The body of Open Roses widens gradually from a narrow tip, so insertion is a slow, controlled build rather than a sudden stretch. That matters more than total size when you're learning. Push gently, pause at the point where it starts to feel full, breathe out, and let your muscles relax around it before you go further. After the widest point the plug narrows into a neck, and your body closes around that neck to hold it in place. Love to Love calls this a progressive insertion, and it's what makes the plug feel secure without effort once it's seated.

Soft, flexible silicone

The plug is made from 100% silicone with a soft, flexible feel. It bends a little as you move, which helps when you sit down, shift positions or wear it during sex, because it follows your body rather than pressing stiffly in one direction. The surface is smooth and non-porous, so it warms quickly and rinses clean. If you've only used a firm glass or metal plug before, expect something much more forgiving.

Is the medium size right for you?

The medium has 9 cm (3.54") of insertable length and a 3.7 cm (1.45") widest diameter. For a first anal plug, that diameter is on the fuller side, so it suits people who have tried fingers or a small toy and want a little more. If you're completely new, the Open Roses Small in Purple Rain is the gentler start. If the medium soon feels easy, the Large in Black Onyx is the next step. All three share the same rose base and silicone.

Using and wearing it

Use plenty of water-based lube on the plug and around the entrance, and reapply if you feel any drag. Lying on your side with your top knee drawn up is a relaxed position for the first try. Once it's in, you can leave it in place during solo play, foreplay or penetrative sex, where many people find the sense of fullness adds to everything else. Start with short sessions of 15 to 30 minutes and build up only if it stays comfortable. To remove it, relax, breathe out and ease it out slowly by the rose.

Cleaning and care

The plug is waterproof, so wash it under warm running water with mild soap or a toy cleaner after each use, then let it dry fully. Store it in its pouch or a clean drawer away from other silicone toys, which can react with each other if they rest touching for long periods. Silicone lube can also wear down silicone, so stick with water-based formulas.
