Lovense Lush 3 Review – 6 Important Questions

I’ve owned a Lush 3 for 18 months, been on both sides of public vibrator control, and realized it’s not the best vibrator for every occasion. This Lush 3 review’s based on my & my boyfriend’s experiences with the Lovense app, climaxing in 6 important questions to ask about whether this “pink tail” vibrator is right for you.

The Lush 3 is strong vs. wearable G-spot vibrators, but — since most people need clit stimulation to orgasm hard — the Lush 3 “squirting” videos you might’ve seen are not the full story. How Lush’s vibration functions & power stack up, next:

Lovense Lush 3 Pros & Cons

What is Lush by Lovense? This “love egg” vibrator’s bulb inserts inside the vagina, where it vibrates the G-spot area. Then, its pink tail curls around outside—vibrating near the clitoris. Lush 3 is a strong mini-vibe, but it’s not for everyone.

Pros:

• Strongest wearable vibe.
• Good app connection.
• Custom vibration control.
• Pink tail offers light clit vibration.
• Long-distance control ready.
• Body-safe silicone.

Cons:

• Most people will need more clitoral stimulation to orgasm.
• Doesn’t stroke or apply pressure for intense G-spot stimulation.
• Doesn’t stay in well for all users: May slip out of the vagina.
• Tighter vaginas will find it too big.

Lush 3 is made of body-safe silicone outside, is waterproof and is USB magnetic rechargeable. Its “bulb” is 1.48 inches maximum diameter at the point or 1.37 inches diameter across left-to-right, and it has 3.5 inches insertable length.

Questions to Ask Before Buying:

I’ll say whether or not Lush is a good fit for you based on each answer!

1. Are you looking for a teasing vibrator / a warmup & foreplay vibrator? If yes, Lush makes sense; but see question #2:
2. Do you prefer clitoral stimulation to G-spot stimulation? If yes, -1 for Lush. (See the Lovense Ferri if you want a wearable clit vibe!)
3. Are you looking for a very strong vibrator? If yes, both the Lovense Dolce and Lovense Domi are more powerful. Lovense Lush 3 is fairly strong, just not as strong as those larger vibrators. (Lush power rating, next:)
4. Are you looking for an anal vibrator? If yes, say NO to Lush. It’s not safely flared, and may be tough to extract.
5. Are you looking for a vibrator to wear during sex (the penis-in-vagina kind)? If yes, -1 for Lush. Some porn artists manage this, but the Lush 3’s bulb is pointy, so it likely will not be comfortable sex.
6. Are you buying your first vibrator? I would not recommend the Lush 3 as a first vibrator unless: (A) you’re looking for public play or a foreplay toy specifically, and (B) you’re experienced with penetration. (The Lush 3’s bulb is not small.)

Our Lush 3 Experience Reviewed

I’ve somewhat-enjoyed the Lush 3 in two ways:

• For letting my boyfriend tease me as foreplay, or
• for (semi) public vibrator control.

The Lush 3 is sexiest with another person, 100%. It’s a tool for him to turn me on. We’ve played together in person, and “long-distance” (across town) on nights we’re not together.

This is the best long-distance play scenario: I’m home alone on a weekend night, and I text him that I have the Lush in… And it’s connected and ready. Whenever he wants. I go about my evening, relaxing, doing whatever.

Then, the vibrator kicks on. Suddenly. It’s revving up, rolling along, vibrating inside me. Vrooom! I like for him to give me limits: “Don’t orgasm yet.” I like for him to ask me questions: “Are you throbbing yet?” “Are you holding your cum for me?” It’s the anticipation, the tension building. The pleasure of the vibes, but frustration that they aren’t moving and stroking me.

I can half-come by myself. Have you ever had an orgasm where you felt a slight tremor, and you were kinda there but not really? That’s me and the Lush, alone. I need directions to come, which I can do upon request because I am such a pleaser. I don’t squirt from the Lovense Lush, but I do tend to push the vibrator out my vagina at orgasm. It’s not enough to satisfy: I wanna play with a thrustable sex toy, and/or a vibrator on my clit.

He’s loved building the tension as he controls the Lush 3 in me — not because he’s sadistic, but because he knows I’ll be really worked up and ready to ride afterward.

My Favorite Wearable Vibrator

I enjoy the Ohmibod Esca 2 (currently $50 cheaper than Lush) more, for secret vibrator wear. Mainly because Esca:

• Is rumblier. Its motor is robust & less buzzy than Lush on high.
• Is smoother. Esca’s vaginal “egg” doesn’t have a focused point that pokes me.
• Longer, flexible tail. Lush 3’s tail is shorter and always kinks to one side, weirdly. Esca’s tail is flexible, wider, and vibrates my clitoris more.
• Esca’s Club Vibe mode is the best in-public vibration, if you’re somewhere music is playing around you. Esca syncs IMO with more fidelity than Lovense’s ambient mode (“Sound”) and Esca’s vibration doesn’t stop when there’s a break between songs. I love music, and I find it super-hot how Esca’s intensity picks up with the rises and falls of good songs.

How to Wear Lush 3 Outside:

My Tip #1: I need tight spandex shorts. Lush will wiggle its way out when I walk at a nice pace, if it’s not secured. Not everyone has this problem, but the Lush wants to pop out of me. YMMV. I really don’t like its sharp, pointy “beak,” so maybe my vag is reacting to that.

My Tip #2: I need a space that’s very discreet. A nice trail where no one could hear that my vagina is buzzing, quietly. Lush 3’s volume is up to 63 decibels outside; but it drops down to 34 decibels max. when it’s in my vagina. That’s not too bad, though I find the Esca vibrator both more discreet & comfortable to wear in public spaces like coffeeshops or bars at night.

My Tip #3: Clench around the Lush, doing kegels as it starts feeling good. [Honestly, I think the pointy spike in the Lush’s bulb is again making me need warmup, to get used to it feeling sharp.] Eventually, we’ll find a bench or other clean place to sit… and I’ll be allowed to come then.

I’ve controlled the Lush 3, too. A M-F couple I was [briefly] dating owned one. And she asked me to control her pink tail vibe, late one night. We’d gone to a nice bar ’round midnight, where she told me when I should pull up the app and start controlling the Lush, already resting against her G-spot.

She was trying to remain “discreet,” even talking to the bartender. I could hear her breathing harder, occasionally, as I revved the Lush 3’s speed up and down, up and down fast. But I couldn’t tell if she was coming, or how much she was enjoying it, 98% of the time! It was an adjustment for me, because Lush’s vibration teases; I wanted it to make her moan & visibly come.👀

Why I Don’t Use the Lush 3 Solo

I don’t masturbate with Lush 3; don’t use it when I’m alone in my bedroom. Here’s why.

First, I love me a good G-spot vibrator, and can orgasm easily from vaginal sex alone.¹ But, I don’t come fast and hard on the Lush. Because: Lush 3 sits in place; it can’t be thrust up and down. The pink tail’s too flexible to grip and move easily. (Also, the damn pointy spike in it, again, irritates me.)

So, the Lovense Lush doesn’t create a downward pressure, pushing into the G-spot with repeated strokes. This is how the G-spot is stimulated, ideally: The strokes should (1) push forward into the front vaginal wall (belly button side), and (2) pull downward, on repeat.

As for the porn orgasms one may view, a cam girl with the Lovense Lush inside: We can’t know whether they’re performance art.

Lovense App Fave Features

The Lovense app has 3 consistent features that’ve been important to me over the years (since 2019 when I got my first Lush):

• Custom intensity control / custom pattern creation.
• Long-distance capable: With text, voice call, & video functions built in.
• Huge library of patterns other Lovense users have created.

Several features have come or gone. For example, you can’t sync the Lush’s vibration to free music off Spotify anymore; you can only sync to music you’ve bought.

Or, a new function is the “Speed Mode,” where your Lovense Lush vibrates harder as the Lovense app senses acceleration. If your partner is driving while you have Speed Mode running: 🚨Take care & be safe!!! Distracted driving can be deadly!²

How to Connect Lush 3 to Lovense App

To connect the Lush 3 to the Lovense app:

1. Press & hold the power button for 3 seconds (at the end of Lush’s tail).
2. A light will appear, showing it’s in “standby” mode.
3. Pull up the free Lovense app on your phone.
4. Click the link icon in the upper right-hand corner.
5. The toy’s name will appear.
6. Tap the Done link in the upper right-hand again.
7. You’re connected!

How to link up with a partner: If you’re physically together, you can let them control the toy directly through your phone. Or, better, they use their phone to connect via the Long Distance function (even if you’re 2 feet apart)! Just find the 💕Long Distance option at the bottom of the app. Here are fuller how-to Lovense app instructions!

Cleaning & Recharging Lush 3

Lush 3’s silicone is functionally nonporous, very hygienic. To wash: Just put normal hand soap on it, and wash it under running water in the sink. Rub the soap and water over the Lovense Lush with your hands. Then lay it on a towel to dry.

The Lush 3 is magnetic rechargeable. (Vs. the Lush 2, which is plug-in rechargeable.) It’s waterproof submersible now, IPX7, so you could use it underwater if you want.

The magnetic charging cable clips on Lush’s pink tail, seen below. A light will appear when the Lovense cord is connected right:

The Lush 3 will stay in standby mode for at least 3 hours, without much battery drain. (That’s how long I’ve worn it; it would feel too hard inside me, much longer!) When the Lovense Lush 3 is actively vibrating, 2 hours battery life is normal. It will be slightly more if you stay on the low end of the speed range, and just under 2 hours if you run it on high power all the way.

Lush 3 Recap & Rating

The Lovense Lush 3 is the iconic public sex toy, now. The one people recognize. It’s become very popular because it is very strong for a wearable “love egg.”

Yet: It is not Hitachi Magic Wand-level strong; and it is not a clitoral stimulating vibrator, not really. The pink tail gives light vibes over the clitoris, while Lush 3’s strongest vibration is inside the wearer’s vagina.

As someone who can orgasm on just the Lush, I’m the odd vag-owner out. But still, I’ve had harder G-spot orgasms from silicone dildos that I can thrust, and I find the Lush great as a tease rather than a main event. Fun foreplay, for fooling around. Overall, I’d rate the Lovense Lush 3 at 4.5 / 5 stars because it’s so strong for a G-spot wearable vibrator, with great app control; I’d only make it less pointy because I like broader G-spot stimulation!

Lovense provides a 1-year warranty if you have any technical problems.

NOTES

1. An estimated 75% of women don’t regularly orgasm from P-in-V sex without clit stimulation, so I’m in the minority.
2. Accidents are the leading cause of death in every U.S. age group between 5 and 44 years old (after 44, deaths from cancer and then heart disease pick up).
