Anal Fisting; Large Anal Toys: The Scandals Guide to Advanced Anal Play
Share
For experienced anal-play enthusiasts, exploring larger anal toys and anal fisting can introduce a completely different range of sensations. However, when you're increasing size and girth, preparation becomes particularly important.
The key is patience, plenty of lubrication, good hygiene and gradual progression. Bigger doesn't mean better if your body isn't ready, and there should never be pressure to reach a particular size.
At Scandals, we stock everything from training plugs and larger anal toys to specialist lubricants, douches and other essentials for experienced anal play.
Start Small and Work Your Way Up
If you're interested in larger toys, gradual progression is one of the most important parts of the process.
Rather than moving immediately from a small plug to an XL toy, consider working through several sizes. Tapered toys and graduated training sets can be particularly useful because they allow you to become comfortable with increasing girth at your own pace.
Our Anal Toys collection includes plugs, beads, training toys and larger designs for more experienced users.
For something designed specifically around gradual progression, take a look at the anal products available at Scandals, including training sets, larger silicone plugs and advanced anal beads.
Lubrication: One of the Most Important Essentials
The anus doesn't naturally lubricate itself, so using a generous amount of suitable lubricant is essential during anal play. When you're exploring larger toys or fisting, lubrication becomes even more important.
Different people prefer different consistencies, and there are specialist products designed specifically with longer sessions and larger toys in mind.
Prowler RED Fisting Butter
For advanced play, a thicker lubricant can provide the long-lasting glide many experienced users prefer.
Prowler RED Fisting Butter 500ml has a thick, smooth consistency designed for more intensive anal play. Its large 500ml size also means there's plenty available for generous application and reapplication.

Prowler RED Powder Lubricant
Another popular option for people who want more control over the consistency of their lubricant is Prowler RED Powder Lubricant Concentrate.
Powder lubricants are mixed before use, allowing you to prepare a larger quantity rather than repeatedly reaching for a small bottle.

Crisco
Crisco Vegetable Shortening has also become well known within some fisting communities because of its exceptionally thick, long-lasting consistency.
Scandals stocks the 453g Crisco Vegetable Shortening, which provides a dense, butter-like texture.
One particularly important consideration is compatibility: because Crisco is oil-based, it should not be used with latex condoms or other latex barriers, as oils can weaken latex.
Whatever lubricant you choose, check that it's compatible with your toys and any condoms or barriers you're using.
Choosing Larger Anal Toys
When moving onto bigger toys, don't judge suitability purely by the overall length. Girth, shape, flexibility and material can make an enormous difference.
Look for toys that have:
-
A secure flared base or suitable retrieval design
-
Smooth, body-friendly materials
-
A tapered shape where appropriate
-
Dimensions suitable for your current experience
-
A surface that's straightforward to clean
-
Enough flexibility for your personal preference
Scandals carries everything from graduated plugs to considerably larger toys for experienced users.

Preparing for Anal Fisting
Anal fisting is an advanced activity, so communication and patience are especially important.
The receiving partner should always control the pace and be able to stop immediately if something doesn't feel right. Preparation should be progressive rather than attempting substantially greater girth straight away.
Hands and nails should be clean, with nails kept short and smooth. Remove rings, watches and other jewellery that could scratch the skin. Disposable gloves can also provide an additional hygiene barrier and a smooth surface.
Most importantly, never force progression. Pressure and stretching sensations are different from sharp or significant pain. Pain is a reason to stop rather than something to overcome.
Douching Before Anal Play
Some people prefer to douche before anal play because it can help them feel cleaner and more confident.
Douching isn't compulsory, and excessive douching can cause irritation. If you choose to douche, use comfortably lukewarm water, be gentle and give yourself enough time before beginning any sexual activity.
A traditional bulb douche is convenient for occasional use, but regular anal-play enthusiasts may prefer a shower attachment.
Prowler RED Shower Shot
The Prowler RED Shower Shot Douche is designed to attach to a compatible shower hose and features a pliable nozzle, providing an alternative to repeatedly filling a traditional douche bulb.

You'll also find bulb douches and other cleaning options in our complete collection.
Avoid using harsh soaps or household cleaning products internally. More cleaning isn't necessarily better, and overdoing it can irritate sensitive tissue.
What About Aromas?
Aromas are another product category associated with some adult and fetish scenes. Products such as Iron Fist Aromas are sold as room aromas and should always be used strictly according to the instructions and warnings supplied with the product.
Never ingest aromas or allow the liquid to come into direct contact with the skin, eyes or other sensitive areas. Keep the bottle securely closed when it isn't being used and store it away from heat, flames and children.

Don't Use Numbing Products to Push Your Limits
When you're experimenting with greater girth, being able to recognise what your body is telling you is important.
Avoid relying on numbing products simply to accommodate a larger toy. Pain is an important warning signal, and significantly reducing your ability to feel it can make it harder to recognise when you need to stop.
Progress through sizes because your body is comfortable with them, rather than because discomfort has been masked.
Hygiene and Toy Cleaning
Always clean anal toys according to the manufacturer's instructions both before and after use.
If toys are shared between partners, use suitable barriers or sanitise them where their materials allow. A toy that's been used anally shouldn't be transferred to another body area without being properly cleaned or having its barrier changed first.
The same principle applies to hands, gloves and other equipment.
Don't Forget Aftercare
Give your body time to recover after particularly intensive anal play.
Temporary sensitivity can happen, but persistent pain, significant bleeding or symptoms that concern you shouldn't simply be ignored. Allow yourself adequate recovery time rather than immediately repeating an intensive session.
Your Advanced Anal Play Essentials
A well-prepared setup might include a selection of graduated toys, plenty of lubricant, cleaning equipment and anything else that helps you feel comfortable and relaxed.
