Read more about how we test products.Best Types of Small Anal Toys for First-Timers
- Butt Plugs – These small plugs are designed to sit inside your butt, providing a sense of “fullness” that can aid your sexual experience and orgasms.
- Anal Beads – These beads provide stimulation during insertion and removal, with the latter often occurring near/during orgasm.
- Anal-Safe Dildos – These small dildos have flared bases that prevent them from being over inserted into the anus.
- Strap-Ons – These flared dildos are used in a strap-on harness, allowing female partners to “peg” their partners.
- Prostate Massagers – These massagers are designed to be inserted into the anus, specifically targeting the prostate. They often provide vibrations as an extra level of stimulation.
How to Choose Your Ideal Small Anal Toy
Not sure which toy to pick? Here are a few factors to mull over while comparing your options!
- Materials – Medical-grade silicone is usually the way to go! This is because silicone is a non-porous material that’s easy to clean, can be sterilized, and won’t retain smells (metal, ABS plastic, and glass are also non-porous). We recommend avoiding porous materials like TPE as they can harbor bacteria and can’t be properly sterilized.
- Size – We know this list is for “small” toys, but what does “small” mean to you? Consider both length and girth when searching for a new toy.
- Shape – The shape of your new toy will affect where it can reach/how effectively it can reach. It will also affect the stimulation it provides during insertion/use/removal.
- Vibrations – Although not necessary, many people find the addition of vibrations to be highly stimulating. You should make sure that your new toy offers a wide variety of vibration functions, as some toys offer more options than others.
- Waterproof – If you want to use your toy in the shower then waterproofing is a must! Don’t settle for “splashproof”; you’ll need a waterproof toy if you want to include it in your aquatic adventures.
- Suction Cup – Having an integrated suction cup will allow you to stick your toy to any flat, smooth surface. This is especially helpful if you want to ride your toy hands-free!
- Remote Controls – Using anal toys with buttons can be annoying since you can’t easily see/operate the buttons. Toys with remote controls are much easier to use, although they may cost a bit more.
- Price – Pricing shouldn’t be your main consideration, but it’s definitely still a factor. Depending on the type of toy you’re looking for (such as a butt plug or small strap-on), the average price will differ. We’d recommend closely comparing your favorite models to see if it’s really worth paying extra!

Still not sure if anal play is even for you? It’s time to settle the debate once and for all with possibly one of the cheapest small anal toys you will ever find. That’s not to say the Carnal Bliss anal beads lack quality, part of the official 50 Shades of Grey range they are endorsed by E L James herself.
A set of three smooth silicone beads adorn an extra thin and flexible shaft. Each bead gradually increases in size from the minuscule to the subtle, while the wide spacing between each ball allows for greater stimulation when removed.
Pros

That’s not to say you won’t feel anything. You’d be amazed how much even such small anal beads can enhance your orgasm. The only issue with the Carnal Bliss is you will inevitably be left wanting more.
The oversized ring loop serves the dual service of making insertion and removal seamless, while also preventing over-insertion, allowing you to play with full peace of mind.

A removable bullet vibrator sends buzzy vibrations from the bottom up. It also doubles as a flared base for safe play. 7 intensities are on offer so that you can find your own personal sweet spot.

Dildo Fun Factory Limba Flex M
My overall favorite small dildo is just as orgasmic used anally as it is vaginally. The Fun Factory Limba Flex M features a flexible metal core that allows you to bend the dildo into any shape. It will then retain that shape! That means you can direct that beautifully pointed head directly at your g-spot or p-spot.
With a slim diameter and tapered tip, the Limba Flex M is aimed squarely at newcomers to the toy scene. The suction-cup base also makes this the perfect toy for hands-free riding, as well as a first foray into pegging since it’s great for using with any o-ring strap-on harness.
The aesthetic is vibrant and non-threatening for anyone who prefers nonrepresentational designs and a subtle pop of color.
Pros
- ✅ Posable shaft
- ✅ Slim and modest size
- ✅ Harness compatible
- ✅ Suction cup base is powerful
- ✅ High quality materials that are easy to clean
- ✅ Versatile use
Cons
- ❌ Tapered tip may not be for everyone
- ❌ A bit on the expensive side
- ❌ Sanded silicone finish attracts dust and lint
Why I Chose It
I am a big fan of what the Fun Factory Limba Flex M has to offer! This is one of those small anal toys that just knows how to strike a balance between exciting and friendly. Dildos tend to present more of a challenge over anal beads or plugs, given their typically larger footprint. The Limba Flex though is very sensibly sized, enough to give a beginner a moderate challenge, without being frustratingly large. The best part? This version is actually availabel in three different sizes so you can find whatever fits your needs the best!
The flexible core means that you can pose and bend the shaft to target those sensitive areas with ease. The range of motion is impressive, as is the way it retains its shape even in use. If you’re looking for a pegging dildo, this is an exciting introductory toy. All you’ll need is a compatible O-harness and you’re away!
Prostate Lovehoney Booty Buddy Butt Plug
The Booty Buddy isn’t some intimidating antagonist. The Booty Buddy is a friend, a trusted confidant here to usher you into a new realm of prostate pleasuring delights. The satisfying curve mirrors the natural curve of your body, while that lightly accentuated head has been designed for one purpose and one purpose only, pinpoint p-spot targeting.
The included bullet vibrator slots straight into the flared base and offers 2 different speeds, alongside 5 patterns programmed specifically for anal stimulation. If you’re yet to experience the heady heights of prostate orgasming, finding this small anal vibrator is your sign to take the leap.
Pros
- ✅ Shaped to the bodies curves
- ✅ Perfect for prostate beginners
- ✅ Removable bullet vibrator
- ✅ Flared base
Cons
- ❌ Falls out mid-session
- ❌ A little noisy
- ❌ Not suitable for intermediates
Vibrations:
Why I Chose It
One of the best small anal toys designed specifically for prostate stimulation. The Booty Buddy has introduced scores of people to the secret world of hands-free, full-body orgasms. Beautifully shaped for ease-of-insertion and placing precise pressure on your pleasure spot. It’s even waterproof so you can take the fun with you anywhere.
The downside is that small size is likely to leave you wanting more. This is sized specifically for beginners, not those who have used similar toys before. The size also presents a second issue; the toy tends to slip out when in certain positions.

Soft Lovehoney Super Soft Galaxy Plug
In a galaxy not so far away we envision a world where nobody has to fear their first anal toy experience. The Lovehoney Galaxy Butt Plug is here to bring that vision to fruition. Made from liquid silicone this is one of the softest small anal toys we’ve seen.
A squishy rounded tip and lightly tapered shaft come in at 4 inches of insertable length, making it easy to use and comfortable to wear for extended periods of time. There is also a suction cup on the base for hands-free anal riding.
Commence countdown. Target destination – Uranus.
Pros
- ✅ Super flexible
- ✅ Suction cup base
- ✅ Comfortable for extended periods
- ✅ Eye-catching design
Cons
- ❌ Not suitable for public wearing
Why I Chose It
When looking for a first anal toy, many people focus on the insertable size and often overlook flexibility, a big mistake. Butt plugs made from firm materials such as glass or metal represent much more of a challenging experience than softer ones like silicone.
The Lovehoney Galaxy is made from liquid silicone. A material that is going to yield to your body rather than resist. If you’re looking for a small anal plug you can wear comfortably for a long time, even if you are more experienced, this is a good one to consider.
Just note, while the suction cup base is great for at-home fun, it isn’t ideal for wearing out in public. As one user commented, it can be quite embarrassing when you find yourself suctioned to a restaurant chair!

Pros
- ✅ Range of vibration functions
- ✅ Particularly petite
- ✅ Travel lock and storage bag
- ✅ Waterproof
Cons
- ❌ A little noisy

Vibrations:
Why I Chose It

Blush Luxe Cici Dildo
The Luxe Cici by Blush is a beginner-sized toy, marketed as your first love affair with dildos. The shaft features an accentuated curve, designed for prostate or g-spot stimulation. The head is modestly bulbous for a little added stimulation without sacrificing ease of insertion. Combine the satin-smooth silicone with water-based lube and this toy is going to slide effortlessly into any orifice.
The flared base also makes for a petite anal dildo that is O-ring harness compatible. An all-round versatile dildo, aimed specifically at those just starting to dip their toes into a thrilling new world.
Pros
- ✅ Petite size
- ✅ Range of colors
- ✅ Curved for the g-spot / prostate
- ✅ Harness compatible
Cons
- ❌ Quite firm
- ❌ No vibration function
Why I Chose It
The Blush Luxe is the ideal first dildo for both anal and vaginal use. 4.75″ insertable length and 1.5″ diameter is very modest, yet still more than enough to be pleasurable. The head is slightly bulbous but certainly not exaggeratedly so. The flared base prevents over-insertion and can even be slotted into a harness if that’s what you’re after.
It even comes in three vibrant shades to add a little splash of color to your nighttime romps. The shaft has a rather significant curve and is certainly on the firmer end of small anal toys. That’s great for p-spot / g-spot stimulation, less so for extended use and positioning.

Butt Plug or Anal Beads?
Two of the most popular types of small anal toys are butt plugs and anal beads.
But, what is the difference between these two legendary sex toys and which one is the right choice for you?
Butt Plugs
Butt plugs are great if you want a low-key sex toy you can use to enhance other sexual experiences. The anus is packed full of super-sensitive, pleasure receptive nerve endings.
Butt plugs are specifically designed to sit snugly in the anus and continually apply pressure to these nerves. As plugs are also designed to stay put, your hands are freed up to do their own naughty pleasuring.
Small anal toys such as plugs are perfect to use during penetrative vaginal sex or while using another sex toy to add a whole new dimension of stimulation.
Anal Beads
While anal beads can be inserted and left similar to a butt plug, they typically provide much less sensation.
Where the majority of the pleasurable sensations come from is during insertion and removal. As each bead passes the anus you will feel an intense level of stimulation. Small anal beads are particularly effective when removed at the point of orgasm.
Where butt plugs are well suited as a complimentary sex toy, anal beads are more of a main event.
Anal beads are also great for beginners as they generally graduate in size, starting from a small and easily insertable bead. You also have more freedom to choose the length that you would like to insert.
