Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator Review 2024: Best Budget Lipstick?

Boutique Voila Lipstick VibratorIn need of lipstick for your other pair of lips? You may not need to look any further than the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator. It looks like lipstick, and it’s perfect for anyone on a budget or someone who needs a lot of power.

But can it compete with the lipstick vibes from tried-and-true international sex tech companies? Join me for my Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator review to find out!

Key Takeaways
4.1 out of 5 stars

If you have ~$30 and want the most powerful lipstick vibe I’ve ever tried, get your wallet out. It’s loud, it’s proud, and it’s well worth the price tag. For a beginner vibe, you won’t find more bang for your buck.

Who Should Try It? If you’ve never tried a lipstick vibrator before, this one will set the bar a bit high. It’s perfect for someone who wants a travel vibe with power.

Who Can Skip It? If you need something truly discreet, this is probably not the vibe for you. It’s not the loudest toy I own by any stretch, but it’s far from whisper quiet as well. If you need a more quiet lipstick vibrator, I recommend Lovense Exomoon instead.

First Impressions and Features

Unboxing

The packaging isn’t the most luxurious I’ve opened, but it’s what’s on the inside that matters, anyway. The Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator comes in a thin cardboard package with a USB charging cable (image below). It doesn’t have a storage bag or lube sample, but that’s why this product is so affordable.

The content of the box

The box says, “sex toys for fun people,” which I like since I consider myself to be a member of that designation! All in all, no one will be buying this one for the box, but the unboxing was nicer than I expected for the price point.

The Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator has playful features, including:

  • Waterproof materials
  • Ten settings to choose from
  • Rechargeable

How To Use Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator?

Using the Boutique Voila is easy. First, charge and wash it. Grab some of your favorite water-based lube and put some on the toy. Then, use the one-button control to turn it on by holding it down for three seconds. Next, you can cycle through the intensities and vibration patterns until you find your fave. For more information, you can read our comprehensive guide on how to use a lipstick vibrator.

My Personal Experience

I loved this bullet vibrator. It’s a true through-the-pants vibe. That’s how powerful the motor is. You can be wearing two layers of clothes and still have this rip orgasm from you, one right after the other. I was blown away.

Even the lowest speed is incredibly powerful. However, when I pushed the button to cycle through the higher intensities, they didn’t necessarily feel stronger, just faster. They got quite a bit buzzier. But the sensation was still unbelievably strong.

Closeup of the power button

As a side note, the power button looks like an adorable little smiley face (image above). I like this approach to design, a silly or normal style, rather than the “sinful secret” marketing that is so common in the sex toy industry. Masturbating is fun and normal and adorable designs make it feel that way, and I think it can reduce the stigma.

The motor also likes to make itself known. This is one of the noisier toys I have and is far and away the loudest lipstick vibrator I’ve ever used. Full disclosure: When I was testing the battery, my partner thought it sounded like they were doing construction on our street.

Packaging

As you can see in the image below, the packaging is bare bones, but so is the price. It’s cute enough, and it comes with a charging cord, so this will be perfect for someone who wants a lipstick vibe but doesn’t want to spend a ton on giftability.

The packaging

Design

The design is pretty, but it’s also not super close to real-deal lipstick. This vibrator is much larger than any lipstick I’ve ever owned. It’s fit to stick a giant pair of lips. But if someone was just glancing through your purse without looking for something specific, it may fool them. And it could certainly fool a disinterested TSA employee, six hours into their shift.

However, aside from the size, this lipstick is vaguely realistic. The only thing it’s missing is a cover. Most people wouldn’t unscrew their lipstick to full length and then throw it in their purse without a cover.

Material

The material is body-safe, silky silicone. It’s quite soft and feels great against your skin. Better yet, it’s fully waterproof!

Stimulations

I have a confession to make: When I saw the price tag, I wasn’t expecting much power. After turning the vibe on, I was shocked. Was the first setting the highest? No, it was not; it was the lowest. This is just a powerful little lipstick vibe.

The device charging

I cycled through the settings and found that there were two higher settings and then a series of vibration patterns. The higher settings were faster and buzzier, but they didn’t feel noticeably more powerful to me.

Overall, I’d say this vibe sits squarely between buzzy and rumbly—but the vibrations are noticeably stronger than some of my other lipstick vibes from more well-known companies.

Sound Level

Strong vibrations aren’t silent, so this toy is noisy. I’d recommend adding some background noise in addition to shutting the door if you want privacy. There’s no way you’re going to sneak off to a public bathroom for a private quickly because it’s not that discreet.

When I tested the sound level, it ranged from 58 to 64 decibels.

Build Quality and Dimensions

The build quality is decent. It’s made from body-safe waterproof materials, which is the biggest necessity. However, the dimensions are quite big, bigger than any lipstick I’ve ever seen. It will still easily fit in your purse for travel or on-the-go masturbation. To get an idea, I snapped a photo of Boutique Voila Lipstick next to some real lipstick I own. You can see how it compares in the below image.

Ease of Use

This lipstick vibe is easy to use. It’s waterproof, which means it’s partially easy to clean. However, there are seams galore, so you’ll want to use a toothbrush for deep cleaning frequently. Otherwise, lube and other liquids may set up shop in the cracks.

Versatility

This vibe isn’t the most versatile one on the market. It’s made for clit vibration only, though I’m sure it would give your nipples or penis a good buzz too. If it’s internal stimulation you’re looking for, this won’t do the trick. However, it’s waterproof so it’s perfect for traveling.

Warranty and Support

The Boutique Voila comes with a worry-free three-year warranty. Three years is an excellent length of warranty.

Minor Issues I Found During Testing

Let me preface my minor issues by saying that I think, for the price, this little vibe is a winner. You can’t have everything for under $40. As for the price, I have no qualms.

That said, if you are looking for specific features, you might be disappointed. The extremely minor qualms I have with this toy are that it is loud, doesn’t have a storage bag, the seams will mean you have to spend a little extra time cleaning, and the battery light is a bit difficult to see. However, I still highly recommend this purchase as the best affordable bullet vibe in the biz. But for those who want something else, you check the best lipstick vibrators we ranked in this guide.

Lovense Exomoon

The Lovense Exomoon wins the award for the most realistic lipstick vibrator on this list. It’s quite realistic—it looks more like a lipstick than some of my actual lipsticks. The design makes the Exomoon discreet, and yet it also looks luxurious. The Exomoon comes with a storage bag, is quieter, and is app-compatible, making it perfect for long-distance couples.

Lovense Exomoon

Since the Exomoon comes with so many upgrades, which you can read fully in our Lovense Exomoon review, it also costs more—around $69.

We-Vibe Tango X

In certain circles, We-Vibe Tango X is the gold standard for lipstick vibes. It comes from an established sex toy company, it’s body-safe, and it packs a punch. However, when I tested them, the Boutique Voila outmatched the Tango X’s power by quite a bit. On the other hand, it’s also much louder. The Tango X could conceivably be confused for lipstick whereas the Boutique Voila is simply too large. But the biggest issue I had with the Tango X is that the toy has plastic that goes against your clit while the silicone end is the part you grab.

Boutique Voila and Tango X

It would be so much more comfortable if this was reversed, and the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator doesn’t have this problem. The deciding factor will likely be the price: the Tango X retails for $79, which is a much bigger financial commitment than you’ll have with the Boutique Voila. Read our We-Vibe Tango X review right here to help you with your decision.

Lelo Mia 2

The Lelo Mia 2 is another lipstick vibe, this version in a sleek black bullet shape. While this Lelo vibrator has a luxurious design, the vibration intensity just can’t compete with the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator’s power. It’s also made from ABS plastic and costs $80, which doesn’t seem like an excellent price-to-quality ratio. However, if you want very subtle vibrations and a travel lock, the Lelo Mia 2 might be a good purchase for you.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What Is the Best Lube for Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator?

Since the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator is made from silicone, steer clear of silicone lubes. Water-based lube will keep your toy in the best shape and prevent the non-porous silicone exterior from being degraded, which is what happens if you use silicone lube.

How Do I Charge Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator?

The Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator is easy to charge. It comes with a USB charging cable, so just plug that into the port, and connect the magnetic charging pins on the bottom of the lipstick to the cord. It should look like the image below.

The toy will start blinking, but it is the dimmest light on a sex toy I have ever used. You’ll need to cup your hands around the toy to see that the lights are blinking. You can find the lights just above the charging port. Since it’s so tough to see when the toy has finished charging, your best bet is to just let it charge overnight so you can be sure it’s done, rather than trying to see. If you’re still having trouble with how to charge a bullet vibe, click here.

The device charging

When I tested it, the lipstick vibe took just under two hours to charge and lasted one hour and fourteen minutes once fully charged. It was difficult to tell when the toy stopped charging because the battery light was so dim. That’s not an amazing battery-life to charge-time ratio, but that’s because of how much power this toy provides.

How Do I Clean the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator?

Since the Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator is waterproof, you can wash it with warm water and antibacterial soap or your favorite sex toy cleaner. However, you can use a toothbrush for detailed cleaning around the seams.

How Do I Store Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator?

The Boutique Voila Lipstick Vibrator doesn’t come with a storage bag, so you’ll want to purchase a small bag to keep it in. If you have other silicone toys, be sure to store them separately. Leaving silicone toys touching each other in your nightstand can degrade their body-safe coating, so purchasing a small bag is your best bet. We have a comprehensive guide on how to store vibrators right here.

Is the Packaging Discreet?
