When Sex and The City’s Charlotte (Kristin Davis) discovered the Rabbit vibrator way back in that THAT iconic 1998 episode of the hit series, it ushered in a new era.
With sex toys unashamedly featuring in mainstream pop culture, it helped strip back many of the taboos around female masturbation.
WATCH: Tiny sex toys you can stash anywhere
Thankfully, we’ve come a long way in the two decades since and no longer are all toys something to be stay secretly squirrelled away in your bedroom drawer.
In fact, more and more products continue to hit the market. And, unlike the can’t-miss-what-that-is, phallic-shaped Rabbit that kicked off Charlotte’s self-love journey, many sexual wellness products are now so discreet that they can be hidden in plain sight.
From jewellery with hidden secrets and an array of vibrators that are worlds away from sex toys’ traditional shapes, these products bring new meaning to the phrase “if you know, you know”. Look, we won’t tell if you don’t!

Rianne S Heart Vibe Australia, $56.25, Amazon
This vibrator is so cute that you wouldn’t want to hide it anyway, but if there are prying eyes around, its shape won’t instantly give the game away. Shaped like a heart, the Rianne S Heart Vibe has 10 vibration settings and can be used externally all over the body including the clitoris, nipples, booty or on the tip of the penis. It comes in a gorgeous gift box and is available in three colours so is a perfect present for a partner or friend.
Missy, $129, Girls Get Off
This pretty little number is small enough to tuck away out of sight from prying eyes but still powerful enough to hit the spot and deliver orgasms every time. What are you waiting for?
Le Coq, $32, Frenchie
These discreet rings will enhance your next play (or make a great gift for going solo). Made from silicone and waterproof so you can take it to the shower or bath, they were designed to have them last longer and stronger while stimulating you.
The 10-function remote control vibrator slip snugly into your underwear to deliver tantalising, discreet pleasure. Feeling adventurous? Hand your partner the controls and head outside the bedroom wearing these bad boys. We dare you not to find yourself aroused.
LadyLibido Vibrator necklace, $111.20, Etsy
Some people wear their hearts on the sleeves. Others? Well, they wear their vibrators around their necks. This necklace is a bullet vibrator with a polished metallic finish that looks more like jewellery than a sex toy. Others will be none the wiser when you wear this as a stylish necklace and you’ll always have easy access should you need a sneaky treat for yourself.
We-Vibe Tango lipstick bullet vibrator, $81, Lovehoney
It appears that bullet vibrators that look like lipsticks are all the rage, with several versions available on the market.
We Vibe’s version is waterproof with eight speeds and built-in memory that remembers the last pattern you used (who doesn’t love something that knows exactly what you like?) while the similarly priced Naughty Bits incarnation is also waterproof, compact but has 10 vibration settings.
Unbound Bean, $42.02 (usually $52.53), Adore Beauty
The Unbound Bean is a pint-sized product (it fits into the palm of your hand!) that proves good things do come in small packages. There are six vibration patterns, it’s super quiet and waterproof and is billed as being the perfect beginners’ toy but unique enough for pros to “experience something new”. Oh, and did we mention the pastel colour options are too cute? Options include mint or quartz.

Womanizer’s Liberty Rechargeable Travel Clitoral Stimulator is the closest thing you can get to someone going Down Under… without the “someone” being present. It has six levels of suction and massaging air waves, push button controls and two silicone stimulation heads in different sizes. But the feature that makes it easy to hide? When its “travel cover” is in place, it looks just like an air freshener. Sneaky!
