It's recommend you take a good look at your new dildo before you use it. You first need to give it a through wash and then start to inspect it. You want to look out for any sharp edges or tears. If your toy is not porous, take extra precaution and check for any holes in the dildo. You don’t want to use it right away in case if you find something wrong with it, you will be able to return it.
When you are ready to use it, is when the real fun starts. First, you want to try it on your own, even if you want to use it with a partner later on. If you want, you can even make them watch, but the idea behind this is to get used to the sensation and try it own alone. Concentrate on the sensations and take your time exploring, don’t rush anything.
Set aside some time to play and do something that turns you on. Remember at the end of the day this is a sex toy, meant to be used for sexual activities, so in order for things to go smoothly you will need to be aroused (figuratively and literally). Relax and enjoy, basically. You can watch some porn you like, or take a bath, read an erotic novel… Begin by touching yourself and explore.
When you’re ready, don’t insert it right away. Take the dildo and rub it on your body and the genital areas you will be using the toys, whether anus, labia or vulva. It helps to think about this as foreplay, tease yourself and make you want and need the penetration.
When you finally start penetration, be careful by starting slow. Slowly start inserting the toy and pay attention to how it feels and how different it is from previous experiences. Try experimenting with different angles and discover what you like.
Something key here will be to use plenty of lubrication, even more necessary if you will be trying anal penetration. Don’t be shy about using lube, you will need it and it will make things easier. Even if you will be using it vaginally and feel enough lubrication, is always a good idea to lube up the dildo before you use it. Lube before use!
