Nebula Series By Ibiza dildo in borosilicate glass 13

The Nebula Series by Ibiza borosilicate glass dildo is a quality option for exploring anal sensations. Borosilicate glass is a material I rank among the most reliable for this type of product: nonporous, hygienic, and able to withstand temperature changes without cracking. Unlike porous synthetic materials, you won't have to worry about bacteria or residue.

Material and care of the borosilicate glass dildo

Here's what you need to know about borosilicate glass: it's a special type of glass that contains boron instead of calcium, which makes it extraordinarily durable. I find that this material has two major advantages for a dildo. First, it doesn't retain anything—zero porosity, so it's easy to clean with soap and lukewarm water. You can also put it in the dishwasher if you want (on a gentle cycle), or even sterilize it in boiling water. That's a luxury you don't get with silicone.

Between us, the only thing to watch out for is that borosilicate glass is heavy and will break if you drop it on tile. Handle it with a minimum of care, but it remains an extremely durable material if you treat it well.

Size and dimensions: 18 cm for beginners or more experienced users

Model 13 is 18 cm long in total, with a diameter of 3.5 cm. I would classify this size as standard for beginners in anal penetration. Not huge, not minimal—just right for exploring without pressure. The base is wide (as stated on the product page), which means you won't have to worry about the toy slipping too far inside. This is an important safety detail that many people overlook.

The weight (186 g in clear, 190 g in pink) provides some substance without feeling oppressive. This density allows for gradual, controlled insertion.

Two variants: clear or pink

You have a choice of two colors. Clear offers a classic, streamlined look—you can really see the glass's raw material. Pink is more playful and colorful. In terms of function, there is no difference: same material, same dimensions, same performance. It's simply a matter of visual preference and discreet storage (the clear version is less noticeable).

Use and compatibility

A few key points about use:

• Lubricant: compatible with all types (water-based, silicone-based, and oil-based). The glass won't deteriorate, so you have complete freedom.
• Cleaning after use: mild soap and lukewarm water are enough. No special product is needed.
• Temperature: you can run it under cold or hot water before use to change the sensations. Some people like to cool it in the fridge for an invigorating sensation.
• Sharing: if you share this toy, use a condom and clean it between uses.
• Storage: keep it in a pouch or a dry place. There's no need for talcum powder as with porous materials.

I know people who find glass easier to maintain than any synthetic sex toy. No odor, no residue, no gradual deterioration. It's an investment that lasts.

Who it's for and who it's not for

Who it's for: Anyone looking for a high-quality, nonporous anal toy that's easy to clean. People who are sensitive to synthetic materials or prefer a “living” material. Those who want to explore temperature sensations. Also suitable for couples looking for a premium option for pegging or shared penetration. If you're new to anal play, this size (18 cm) is a good starting point.

Who it's not for: If you're afraid of fragile objects or regularly drop things, glass isn't ideal (there is a risk of breakage). If you're looking for something truly discreet or ultra-lightweight, silicone will be more practical. To start with a very small size, I recommend checking out our selection of silicone dildos, where you'll find more compact options.

Friendly advice— Borosilicate glass is a material that's often underestimated. If you're willing to invest a little and want a toy that will last for years without deteriorating, this one is truly worth it. And the temperature trick (cold/hot) creates sensations that no other material can really offer in quite the same way.
