Finger vibrators either slide onto one finger (like a ring) or fit between two of them and can be used on breasts, butts, clits, or anywhere else you like. The tiny, egg-shaped Blush Novelties Aria Flutter Tongue is adorable, but we found the Evolved Tongue Tied to be a better overall choice among tongue-style vibrators (see below). The tiny but super-powerful We-Vibe Tango is a good value for a rechargeable, bullet-style toy that is small enough to fit in a pocket but capable of delivering the rumbly intensity of a much larger vibrator.
