Lifelike Lover – The 7 Best Realistic Dildos from Lovehoney

   Kevin Foley
Shopping for a new dildo is exciting. There are always tons of options, ranging from smaller, innocent-looking toys to large, oversized alien-looking dildos best suited for the more adventurous types! Of course, these are just two extremes: what if you want something more in the middle? Well, if that’s the case then you may want to check out Lovehoney’s brand “Lifelike Lover”. This brand specializes in offering realistic, “lifelike” dildos to its customers. True, its interpretation of “lifelike” can be rather liberal at times, but still, you can expect to see plenty of detailing—-such as veins and skin texturing—-on these toys. Ready to take a ride down the realistic road to see what fun toys await? Keep reading to see the best realistic dildos and find your new Lifelike Lover!

Affordable, well-detailed, and made from silicone, the Lifelike Lover Realistic Silicone Dildo is the perfect all-around dildo! Measuring six inches long and equipped with a suction cup base, this dildo is offered in four different colors (each with the same design). You can even use it as a strap-on (provided you have the right size of harness!). Whether you’re shopping for your first dildo or looking to add to your collection, you can’t go wrong with this Lifelike Lover!

  • Suction cup base
  • Realistic detailing
  • Easy to hold

This Lifelike Lover offers amazing value for the money. It’s not even made from PVC (unlike a lot of other alternatives)! That said, while it may be a jack of all trades, these same qualities are the reason that some people may find it a bit lackluster. Measuring six inches long, this model certainly isn’t going to win any size competitions. It also has a girth of 1.27”, which may be underwhelming for some. For the average person, we think this dildo is a great option! However, if you’re a self-described size king or queen, this probably isn’t the dildo for you.

2 Cheapest

Basic Realistic Suction Cup Dildo

 Realistic Suction Dildo

  • Need a budget-friendly toy
  • Are fine with minor detailing
  • Don’t mind PVC

Realistic Suction Dildo

  • Want a silicone dildo
  • Prefer high levels of detail
  • Generally use larger toys

If you’re looking for a Lifelike Lover on a budget then this option may have already caught your eye: it costs less than $20! For that price, you get a 6.5” dildo detailed with large, pronounced veins in your choice of skin tone. Made from PVC, this flexible, phthalate-free dildo is a great option for a first-time dildo user. However, due to its width of 1.59” and an insertable length of 6”, even the more experienced users will enjoy giving it a go!

  • Affordable
  • Textured
  • Harness compatible
  • Suction cup base

  • Lazy detailing
  • Made of PVC

This Lifelike Lover is their budget-friendly option. As such, a few cuts have been made. Whether or not these cuts matter to you will decide whether this toy is a good match for you. Firstly, this toy is made from PVC, rather than silicone. Secondly, the veins on the shaft are oversized, making it look less realistic than alternative models. That said, the dildo itself performs well, offering decent length and plenty of girth to go around. If you don’t mind the few shortcomings that have been taken with this model then we say it’s a good investment!

3 Beginner

Basic Slimline Realistic Anal Dildo

 Slimline Anal Dildo

  • Want to try anal
  • Are planning on trying pegging
  • Have a small budget

Slimline Anal Dildo

  • Are experienced with anal
  • Have used bigger dildos before
  • Want over 6” of insertable length

The next Lifelike Lover on this list is the Slimline, a realistic and well-detailed dildo that’s perfect for any—and all—of your anal adventures! Offered in two skin tones, this dildo has a suction cup base that doubles as a flare for safe anal play. With a width of 1.27” and an insertable length of 6 inches, the Slimline is sized for the anal beginner. Combined with the affordable pricing, adding this one to your collection seems like a no-brainer!

  • Anal-safe
  • Realistic detailing
  • Offered in two skin tones

  • Firm design may not be for everyone

The Lifelike Lover Basic Slimline is a beginner-friendly anal dildo. As such, it’s not very big. This works well for its target audience, but it also means that more experienced users probably won’t get much enjoyment out of this toy. Being made from PVC, you will experience a slight rubbery smell the first time you take this toy out of its box. We recommend washing it before use, and continuing to wash it after every use (this will greatly help the smell go away!). There’s nothing particularly special about this toy, but it doesn’t claim to be special either. What it is is exactly what is advertised: the perfect introductory anal toy!

4 Vibrating

Rechargeable Remote Control Dildo

 Remote Control Dildo

  • Hate using buttons
  • Love vibrations
  • Enjoy a bit of extra length

Remote Control Dildo

  • Want a toy that will last for years
  • Need color options
  • Prefer silicone

This next Lifelike Lover has a bit more to offer than the previous models. How do you feel about extra length and the inclusion of vibrations?.. cause we think it’s awesome! Measuring eight inches long—-with 6.5” of insertable length—and equipped with an internal vibrator, this remote-controlled toy has more than one way to satisfy. Oh, and did we mention that it’s also waterproof? That’s right: you can enjoy remote-controlled vibrations and penetration, both on-land and off!

Compared to a non-vibrating dildo, this Lifelike Lover has a lot to offer your sex life! With vibrations, a suction cup base, the ability to be used safely in water, and a rechargeable internal battery, this toy seems to have it all. However, there are a few additional things to consider. As noted by a few users, the materials used to make this toy aren’t top-tier, so you shouldn’t expect this toy to last for years. The vibrations themselves aren’t the strongest, but this ultimately comes down to personal preference. Lastly, the button placement is poor, but this shouldn’t be an issue (since you have a remote!). It may not be the perfect remote control vibrating dildo, but—considering the low price and decent variety of features—we think it’s worth picking up anyway.

5 Extra Girthy

This Lifelike Lover isn’t for the beginner; it’s best suited for the experienced user. If that sounds like you then you’ll probably enjoy this toy! Girthy and lengthy, it provides a pretty good bang for your buck. That said, it is made of PVC, which is a bit of a downside. Like most dildos, it also doesn’t come with a case for storage, so you’ll need to find a safe, discreet place to store this bad boy yourself. The few downsides of this dildo are pretty common across other dildos, so—while that doesn’t necessarily excuse them—we wouldn’t consider them deal-breakers. Bottom line: if you like size, you’ll love this toy!

Like many other strapless strap-on toys, this Lifelike Lover can take some getting used to. Since it doesn’t have straps, you’ll likely need a bit of practice before you can easily position and use this toy. As this is fairly common we can’t really count it against the toy, but it’s nonetheless something you should be aware of. One thing we really liked about this toy is that it’s made of silicone! This makes it body-safe, which is especially important if you’re planning on wearing it for extended periods of time. Sure, it’s not perfect, but—for what it is—we think this toy offers excellent value for the money. No matter what you’re planning on using it for, this Lifelike Lover is one you’ll enjoy!

Many people have complained about the ejaculating function of this Lifelike Lover toy. With these types of toys, such complaints are fairly common. Let’s be honest: getting these types of toys to come “just right” is extremely hard! If you’re not willing to work on getting your technique perfect then this toy may be too frustrating for you. However, this toy really excels as a general dildo, which is one of its redeeming qualities. The texture and external detailing are extremely realistic, although the size may leave you wishing it was a bit longer. So, is this toy worth it? Well, that depends. If you’re willing to work towards the perfect technique or just want a well-crafted dildo then it’s a great option. However, if you’re after an easy-to-use toy then you may want to consider other toys.

Prefer Even More Realism?

If you love the idea of getting a Lifelike Lover toy but find the small size to be a bit off-putting, perhaps you just need something larger. Check out these larger, even-more-realistic options!

Silicone vs Plastic Dildos

As you’ve probably noticed by now, Lovehoney’s brand as a whole uses a lot of different materials in their sex toys. However, silicone and plastic seem to be the most popular—at least when it comes to dildos—-so let’s take a bit of time to compare these two options. Silicone dildos are the more premium option of the two. Being non-porous, they’re completely body-safe and can easily be sterilized. They’re also unlikely to cause any allergic reactions for the vast majority of users and are generally more “lifelike” than plastic dildos. However, these advantages generally demand a higher asking price. Plastic dildos—which include materials such as PVC or ABS plastic—are the more budget-friendly option. They’re just as durable and easy to clean as silicone dildos, but they can’t be sterilized since the materials used are porous. This is the major drawback of plastic dildos. Generally (although not always), plastic dildos will be less flexible and feel less “lifelike” than their silicone alternatives.

How to Use a Lifelike Lover

it’s very easy to use a Lifelike Lover: it’s just a dildo, after all! However, not everyone has used a dildo before, so let’s quickly go over the general process.

Get Ready

Get Ready

First things first: you’ll want to prepare your space, grab your toy(s), and get some lubricant.

Lubricate

Lubricate

Next, you’ll need to lubricate things (both yourself and the toy). We recommend only applying lube with the hand that you won’t be using to hold the dildo. Otherwise, holding on to your toy may pose a bit of a challenge!

Insert & Enjoy

Insert & Enjoy

Lastly, you can insert your toy. Take it slow and apply more lubrication as needed. Once you’ve fit the entire toy inside, you can enjoy yourself!

How to Clean a Lifelike Lover

The first thing you’ll want to do is determine what your Lifelike Lover is made from. If it’s made from silicone (and doesn’t contain any electrical components), your toy can be easily sterilized by dropping it into a pot of boiling water for five minutes. If not, then you can only wash it. Wash your toy using warm water and antibacterial soap, then rinse it off using warm water only. Pay it dry, then leave the toy out to air dry completely before storing it away. Never store your toy away when it’s wet or damp, as this will increase the likelihood of bacterial building up on your toy.

FAQ

Lovehoney recommends using your favorite water-based lube with your Lifelike Lover dildo!

If you take proper care of your toy and avoid using it with non-recommended types of lubes, you can expect your dildo to last for years to come.

Not really: it all boils down to a matter of personal preference! If you prefer realism then obviously a realistic dildo is best. However, if you’re after something a bit more adventurous then a realistic dildo may not be the best option for you.
