NS Novelties and their line of sex toys, the Starlight Gems Lyra vibrator toy is made for cuteness. I can’t help but love the entire line. It is eye-catching and adorable. They do the fun and bright colors, different sizes, and plenty of different styles. But my favorite is that they add glitter as well. Again, everything is better with glitter! I like the glitter and the colors, it appeals to the younger crowd, or the first time buyer. The Starlight Gems Mini vibrator toy, Lyra, is a perfect example of a “first time buyer” category of sex toys.
One of the main reasons as to why the Lyra vibrator toy is the perfect first time vibrator for someone is because of its size. It is not intimidating at all. It is quite literally the length of my hand from tip of middle finger to the bottom of my palm, and about two of my fingers wide. The literal dimensions are seven inches long with six of those being insertable, and one inch wide … at its widest point.
Another reason why first timers love the Lyra vibrator toy is because of the material. It is made from TPE and is
flexible and comfortable. TPE is a body safe material. For a toy like this, I always recommend using water based lubricants. However, the packaging does say that you can use whatever type of sex lube that you have. I believe in playing it safe and that means using water-based lubes like Swiss Navy All Natural.
You do want to take extra care that you are cleaning properly. This is a more porous material than others on the market. So it has a greater chance of harboring bacteria. That is totally ok, so long as you clean when recommended, as well as how often it is recommended. Just use your favorite toy cleaner, warm water, and pat dry. Do this before and after each use.
Customers always question why we suggest that you clean a sex toy before use, especially if they cleaned it after the last time they used it. When it is sitting in a drawer, on a shelf, in the closet, etc., it is still getting things like dust built up on it. This material almost attracts it a little bit of dust and lint. So just be smart, follow directions, it’ll keep your sensitive parts happy. 🙂
The shape of the Lyra vibrator toy is a bit unique. A lot of people get turned off to the more realistic looking vibrating penis toys. This is cute, (sorry guys, as much as I love penis, I can’t say they are cute…or pretty.) It has a tapered bulb at the top, then it gets thinner. That thinner area is ribbed, and then it flares back out just a tad bit. (Thank goodness I can attach pictures!)
This design makes for comfort during insertion. It especially comfortable for anal play. That taper makes it glide in smoothly with anal lubricant (our favorite is anal morphine!), and the little ribbed area adds a lot of sensation also around the entrance of your anus.
This vibrator toy is more what I call a standard vibrator, there is nothing stopping it from being sucked into your body (no retaining ring). Just have you or your partner keeps a hand on it during anal play (and not go too deep), and it’ll keep yourself from any shitty situations. (Yea I know, how classy of me. I couldn’t help but make the joke.) No one wants a trip to the ER.
The bulb at the top also makes a great clitoral stimulator. The motor is directly in the bulb, making it impressively 
powerful. The Lyra vibrator toy takes two AAA batteries, and sometimes I feel like AAA batteries aren’t always going to lead to a strong vibration. Maybe I’m judging the batteries by their size, but I use very few AAA operated toys. This one’s power obviously caught my attention.
The batteries simply get inserted into the bottom. It is operated by a turn dial at the bottom to adjust the speed. I’m a fan of just putting it on full blast a laying back. I don’t have to do much work at all from my end to feel the effects of Lyra!
The Lyra vibrator toy does say waterproof, like many others. I would call this more splash proof. I’ve never submerged it in water to test this theory either. So I am not saying it is impossible, but just that I would not do it myself. I do however use it in the shower.
Starlight Gems Mini Lyra is just perfect. It is cute, covered in glitter, can be used vaginally, for clitoral stimulation, or with care, for anal play. Who wouldn’t want it?
Sex games are not the most popular selling item in the store by any means, but we do get a tons of questions about them. To want to play board games for adults, you need to have the time available, and be willing to keep an open mind. Yes, I love the idea of playing sex games! They help break you out of the normal routine, encourage a healthy and creative sex life, and of course add some excitement.
Here are our top 3 games for adults!
SEXPLICIT: For the more conservative couple, or to give as a gift at a wedding shower, I recommend one of our best
-selling sex games called Sexplicit. It is a perfect for someone that you may not know the secret details of their sex life, and is safe to give in front of others. Basically it is a sexy mad libs type of games for adults. It comes with 100 different scenarios and two pencils. The scenarios are all “fill in the blank”, so it gives enough to make it exciting; and is great change of pace, but you get to decide how naughty to make it! As the box says, “write your own naughty adventure”.
I like to suggest the couple playing the Sexplicit game fill out several cards at once. That way you can turn them all face down, shuffle them around, and then pick one out of the pile at random. Filling several out at once also means you have some for later. How fun would it be to slip one of these cards into your partner’s lunch they take to work that day? Can you imagine them finding it with a note stuck to it saying you can’t wait for them to get home? Sounds exciting, doesn’t it? This is certainly one of the sex games where you get your money’s worth, and you can revisit several times, for a different sexy outcome each time.
MONOGAMY: formerly known as “A Hot Affair” is another one of better selling games for adults. Maybe it is the fact that it is designed for a monogamous couple, (a lot of sex games aren’t), or the huge sticker that says “Adult Game of the Year”, but we sell the heck out of it! The description on the packaging says “a hot affair with your partner”. I am going to go ahead and say that the previous name of this game, “A Hot Affair”, was a bit misleading, since the game was intended to be played by just a single couple. They 
changed the name to Monogomy and created a logo out of the old name so people still understood the transition.
Monogamy is one of the board games for adults. So if you intend to play the full game, it does take some time. I have heard people say that they usually do not make it through out the entire game. In many cases, it is because it gets too exciting, and other times it is because they underestimated the amount of time needed to play. It definitely can be completed quicker than Monopoly, so don’t worry, (no game last that long!). The other thing is of course people complain that a few of the cards do not fit their needs, or they just aren’t willing to try them. (LAME! Just kidding, we all have limits.) When you come across a card that is too far out of your boundaries, just put it off to the side and grab another. Some of the cards also involve alcohol. If you do not drink find something else to substitute, or skip those as well. The game includes the playing board, 65 intimate cards, 65 passionate cards, 65 steamy cards, 50 fantasy cards, 2 player’s pieces, 1 dice, 12 level pieces, and 1 rule sheet.
LET’S F*CK: For the couple, or group of people with no reservations, we sell one of the most daring sex games called Let’s F*ck, (star and all), “the XXX sex game”. No joke, it is that blunt. The back of the box has a picture of the board game, and the only description says, “Do you like to f*ck? If so, you’ll love this f*cking game!” Then list what all is included in the box, game board, spinner, 4 markers, and rules. And it
also says, “Note: If you are a slut, you can use the extra game markers and play with three or more players.”
This game for adults doesn’t take much time at all. You use the spinner to land on a color square, do that action, then finish the game when you land on square telling you to go to the bed. Then the spinner is used again to tell you what position. There are four markers, or game pieces, you can use. It is totally up to you if you want to use it alone with your partner, add a third party, or another couple all together. This adult game may have some crude language, but is much more direct. It adds the fun of truly naughty games for adults, doesn’t take long to play at all, and still gives you a new, fun way to get naughty in the bedroom. So, :”Let’s f*ck!” — and don’t forget to have lube on hand!
These sex games can all be fun. Here is a hint I am just going to throw out there and share with you, my loyal LoveWorks reader: bringing an adult game home unexpected is seen as thoughtful. It means you thought about your partner, and took the effort to do something one on one. Like I have mentioned previously, games for adults take time to play, and they are solely undivided attention between your partner, or group of people all involved in playing. So skip the over the bouquet of roses picked up from the grocery store on the way home, and stop to grab an adult game. It’ll be more fun for you too, guaranteed!
I have covered several different couple sex toys in the past. We've discussed different types of cock rings, vibrators designed specifically for partners, etc. By now, if you are familiar with my reviews, or know me personally, you know I love to encourage vibrators to be used with your partner. I can find almost any way to make any sex toy a couple’s sex toy. However, some toys are easier than others to explain. The Double Penetration Cock Ring with bendable dildo is one of those obvious toys you look at, and have a very clear idea of how it is used as a couple’s sex toy.
This couple’s sex toy is a vibrating cock ring, with an added dildo onto it. (Sounds amazing right!?) So 
if you have ever had any DP, (double penetration or double penetration cock ring), fantasies, they can now be recreated without the possible mess of adding another person. How cool is that? Obviously I have no judgments towards adding another person into a sexual relationship or partnership, or whatever. But for some people, another physical person simply isn't going to happen. It just isn't their thing. However, they may still have the DP fantasy. Problem solved! With this wonderful creation to mankind you are able to fill both holes, (vagina and booty), at the same time, or use a penis and the DP Cock Ring to double stuff one hole.
The bendable spine is a great thing, but can also be a tad bit annoying as well. It takes a little bit to get the hang of it. The spine is helpful, and is important. Everyone is built differently, and in order for it to fit comfortably in whatever desired hole, it needs to be flexible. Plus the flexibility of it creates more options for use. If it were hard and not able to move you would just have to hope that it fit into two holes comfortably, and you are limited to just DP. The flexibility is needed, but like I mentioned previously, it can be annoying. You have to use a little extra time to guide it correctly. It takes some practice. But practice and patience lead to great things right?!
Using the flexibility of the spine of the dildo of the double penetration cock ring is to your advantage is 
key to getting as many different positions from this fun cock ring as possible. Traditional missionary will result in your penis entering the vagina, and the dildo entering the anal cavity, with the vibration stimulating the clit. You could also stuff the vagina with the dildo and your cock, with the vibration stimulating the clit. Weather it is talked about or not, stretching and fully filling a vagina is another popular fantasy. If you prefer your partner being the one inside your ass instead of a dildo, you can flip it upside down. Then the penis can enter the anal cavity and dildo into the vagina. The vibrator will not be stimulating the clit in this position, but the testicles. Which is very exciting for most men. Honestly anyway you flip it, you’re going to have fun. Just remember, it takes some getting used to, and don't give up on trying it out. Find a way that works. There's a reason the Double Penetration Cock Ring has a 4.5 out of 5 star review here on our website, just saying
The clitoral stimulator on this double penetration cock ring is a plus too. It has a decent power, is removable, and requires AG13 batteries. So if you want to just use the bullet for stimulation you can. I have even heard a few people say that the vibration was too strong, (crazy, is you ask me), so they removed it for use. The bullet is made from a harder plastic that is ideal for strong vibration. The actual dong and ring are made from a jelly like material. The bullet is powerful enough to travel through the thicker ring and still successfully stimulate. How wonderful it is too!
One complaint I have heard is that it has a strong odor. I agree, it is made with the jelly-like material that can, when first taking it out of the packaging have a smack you in the face odor. Be sure to use a good toy cleaner to ensure it is cleaned properly before the first use, after each use, and then again before each use. The odor should go away after the first good cleaning. It may smell strong, and be a more porous material, but rest assured it is phthalate free. Phthalate free means there are no esters, softeners, or plasticizers. It is body friendly.
Recently I have had more women call asking if we sell vaginal dilators. The answer is YES. I do my best to be as empathetic as possible, and understanding. I want customers to know I am listening, and that I hear them, but most importantly I do not want them to feel ashamed.
There are many reasons why your doctor’s office may send you to the adult store for vaginal dilators. When I am training new employees, I always cover those reasons FIRST. It is so important to understand that sexual pleasure and medical reasons can, and more often than not, go hand-in-hand..
The reasons vaginal dilators are needed vary tremendously. You may need one due to certain types of cancer, or cancer treatments, menopause, vaginismus, vaginal atrophy, post radiation, adhesions, etc. The list goes on, but the vagina can lose some of its elasticity, and need to be retrained for more comfortable penetrative sex; or even just a more pleasant pelvic exam.
If someone has been living in discomfort for a long period of time, vaginal dilators are a great way to take back some of the power, and rebuild your sexual confidence. Having less pain is always a good thing, and is our goal at LoveWorks; make sure our customers choose the right products.
I am no doctor but I can provide information on different types of vaginal dilators. Other more specific information such as how long to use the dilator, or whether it really will help you, is a question that you must discuss with your doctor. But I do have some information I can share with you, and products I can recommend.
Vaginal dilators fall into the category of Kegel exercisers. To most people, it sounds counter-productive, but once the dilators are inserted, you will need to squeeze your vaginal muscles (the kegels), to help your body adjust and relax.
We sell two dilator kits in store. One is the Sinclair Select Dilator Set, and the other is the Dr. Laura Berman Dilator Set. Both are a bit different.
The Sinclair Select Dilator set is made with a medical grade, body safe silicone material. This material is smooth, tapered a bit, and will have some give to it for more comfortable insertion.
You must NOT use a silicone lube with this product; instead use a water-based lube, which will work just fine. Sinclair is a complete set of 5 different sizes varying from 2.8 inches long x 0.5 inches wide to 5.5 inches long x 1.25 inches wide.
The Dr Laura Berman Dilator Set is a vibrating set made from ABS plastic, (the hard plastic). There are 4 different sizes varying from 3.5 inches long x .75 inches wide to 6.5 inches long x 1.5 inches wide.
It also comes with a textured sleeve made from TPR for more comfort and pleasure if the plastic is too hard for you.
This set also works a little differently in the sense that you attach each size onto a handle. The handle makes it easier to control the insertion, and also provides the vibration.
Which dilator set you choose is completely up to you. I will say we sell far more of the silicone (non-vibrating) set, than the ABS vibrating one.
To insert the dilator, comfortably lie on your back. Your knees should be bent, and legs spread about a shoulder length apart. Be relaxed. If you are having difficulty relaxing, take a warm bath prior.
Start with the smallest dilator, add lube to it and yourself, and insert into the vagina slowly, and gently. You should feel a slight pressure, but you should not feel pain. If you feel pain, stop, and see about finding something smaller. If you do not feel any pressure at all, go ahead and size up.
Leave inserted for whatever amount of time had been discussed with your healthcare provider.
The amount of time suggested is usually less than 30 minutes per size at least once per day. What most women find, is that the insertion is the most difficult – but when the dilator is in place, it becomes much easier to relax and allow the dilator to stay in place.
As you relax, squeeze your muscles to allow them to work with the inserted dilator.
Like I said before, I am no Doctor, so you always want to verify this information with your healthcare provider. But I am 100% here to help you find what works for you, and to help make it a more pleasant shopping experience than you may have originally imagined.
We have spent the last 28 years helping people with their most intimate issues and concerns. Give me a chance to help you and make you feel comfortable as well.
These are the toys with the longest name in LoveWorks’ history: The Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys. Honestly, the names of these toys kinda drives me nuts, and not in a good way. I get they wanted to get right to the point, but it makes it awkward to talk about. ***Ok, rant over.
Regardless of how I feel about the name of these products, I actually really enjoy selling them. I like using them even better, obviously. I personally own the Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys #1, but I am lumping the two toys together in this review because there honestly isn’t much difference. The only difference is that the Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys #1 is a powder blue, and the prongs are a tad bit thinner. The #2 is a baby pink, with the more thick prongs.
If you want a toy you can use on yourself, and with your partner, this is the way to go. They advertise it, with pictures on the back of the packaging, as having upwards of 14 different ways to use it. Most make absolute sense, even for a beginner looking at it. However, there is a picture to suggest use as a g-spot stimulator, and I just don’t see that making sense or being feasible. I do not look at either of these models as being penetrative.
I think someone in the graphics department got confused, because this is not a We-Vibe.
Both Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys #1 and #2 have three motors. One in the base, and one in each little prong. There are two control buttons. One controls the base motor, while the other controls the prongs motors. Satisyer claims that between the two buttons, it gives you 100 different vibration combinations. They are rechargeable, easy to clean silicone, and waterproof.
My preference for using the Multifun #1 that I have is similar to how you would use a cock ring. Just rest it at the base of the penis, with the penis inserted through the opening. Depending on how it is positioned, depends on the intensity of vibration. It offers clitoral stimulation and testicular stimulation for my partner. I do prefer it where the larger base offers more clitoral stimulation during the penetration, and the prongs are stimulating the testicles.
Both sides vibrate, with all motors turned on, and I always say the larger the area is for clitoral stimulation — the less guesswork necessary. However, with it flipped the other way, it offers more full testicular stimulation. The prongs, at times during thrusting, kind of offer a unique feel of a little hug to the clitoris. Who doesn’t want their clitoris to receive a little hug surged with vibration here and there.
The Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys are also very enjoyable for foreplay. The prongs can gently pinch, or squeeze nipples, or any other body part really. It is great to rub the vulva with the prongs for a little tease, or again use the base of it a more full coverage feel. The “multifun” is fun to assist in performing blow jobs as well. You can clamp the prongs on the testicles, and go to town. You can also use it to aide in stroking while performing oral.
Honestly, the Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys #1 and #2 are fun toys if you can forgive their long name and just call them “MultiFun”. They are great for a beginner who wants to open their eyes to possibilities, or an experienced person trying to find a way to spice things up. The possibilities are countless. I like to tell people it is like a cock ring, but also an all in one couples toy. It is a must have in everyone’s toy box.
Oh, and besides being a great toy, a special award should be given for creating a sex toy with the longest name known to the industry … The Satisfyer Endless Love MultiFun Couples Toys. Damn!
The clitoris actually has more nerve endings in it than any other part of a woman’s body. And those feelings and nerve endings are stimulated when a female libido enhancer is added to the fun. This explains why external stimulation feels so amazing, and is typically the easiest way to reach an orgasm! Sometimes something as simple as the seams of your jeans rubbing against it unexpectedly is enough to believe all those nerve endings exist. (Yes, that really happens to women, yes, I might really like those unexpected surprises and occasionally try to recreate them more than I'd like to admit.)
For woman who may be lacking a sex drive, or libido, we may recommend a female libido enhancer such as a cream, gel or oil to apply directly to the clitoris. Sometimes women just get caught up in their own heads. Using a female libido enhancer can remind the mind that there is something down there, and that it needs attention! They all are designed to encourage blood flow to that area and in doing so, make it engorged and more sensitive. This sudden increase of sensation all at once, helps give that drive to enthusiastically jump on something and ride it back! OK, maybe not exactly, but great feelings and things will happen. Although we carry over 100 sex gels online, I have my favorites.
There are 3 top selling female libido enhancer products in the store, and they are listed in the below paragraphs in order of personal favorites. Believe it or not, I am lucky enough to have actually been able to try all three of the following. (Years of working here have many benefits.) They each offer a different sensation, warming, cooling, or tingling. It really is just a matter of try each type to see what you like best. All female libido enhancer products are applied about the same way. You put one or two drops onto your finger and massage gently onto the clitoris. You will feel something happening very quickly, but it needs one or two minutes to take the full effect.
My first female libido enhancer item I suggest, (and my personal “go too” favorite), is “On” by Sensuva. At one point it was voted the number one female libido enhancer across the internet. On is all natural, made in the USA, and menthol free. I am very upfront when selling this item, because I am aware it is not for everyone, this stuff gets HOT! You want to make sure to not use more than two drops of the oil at first, and that you are putting it only on the clitoris. If it gets onto any other part of your vagina it burns.
You will still feel the warmth quite a bit, and it may scare you at first with how hot it does feel like it is getting, but bear with it. After a couple of minutes it turns into the best, most wonderful feeling ever! I do not NEED to use female enhancements of any kind, I WANT to for fun, but this one was beyond fun the first time I used it. It caused me to have so much extra natural lubrication, and I am pretty sure the neighbors considered calling the police for noise control. As soon as it took full effect I was ready to go! Literally a mind blowing experience, multiple orgasms, and some of the most intense orgasms I have ever had. It comes in a tiny eye dropper bottle, but does have more than 50 applications inside. Your partner won't notice it as long as they do not get it on their mouth area. It will sort of make their mouth numb, and no one wants that! But boy it is worth it!
If that one seems a bit scary, or you absolutely do not like the idea of a warming female libido enhancer, I then suggest my next favorite, “Awaken” by Wicked. You may be familiar with the name Wicked, as they are a familiar porn company. In the last several years they have branched out to making lubricants and now female libido enhancer oils. A really cool thing about Awaken is that they are a cruelty free, vegan, “made in the USA” company. A lot of people laugh when I mention that it is vegan, but it actually means a lot when it comes to something that has the potential to go inside of your body. Awaken is free of any l-arginine, glycerin, and paraben, and maintains a well-balanced ph level. I like to describe Awaken as a tingle or buzz. It isn't warming, and it isn't cooling. It just feels awesome. I actually haven't used this with a partner, just on solo play dates, so I can't tell you if it would taste bad or not. I assume there would be some tingling of the lips, probably not the best taste, but wouldn't be harmful to ingest. I am sure it would not be preferred though! One or two drops and you are going to want to get off immediately, it all feels so good.
The third female libido enhancer I suggest is “Liquid V” made by Body Action. Before ON or Awaken we could not keep this stuff in the store! If you are someone who knows for a fact that warming is not for you, then this is what I would certainly suggest. Liquid V is a cooling stimulant. Again, applied the same way as the others, and this one is a bit thicker, closer to a cream or gel than an oil. It comes in a small bottle, again with around 50 applications. Liquid V does contain menthol and l-arginine. Both are not harmful in small doses, however l-arginine is not recommended for use for a person who has genital warts or herpes. It has been linked to trigger outbreaks. On that note, the good news is that it is safe to use with condoms! (See that lovely timing I have?) It has been a few years since I have used Liquid V, but I do remember how it felt. I remember that one time I applied it for the quick car ride to a partner's house. I jumped their bones as soon as I arrived, I was ready to go!
Using a female libido enhancer is more than only helping you get in the mood. Yes, it will help with that, but it also is about adding more fun and excitement. Bringing that "desperate desire" back into the bedroom. Being so ready to go that you would hump their leg if it meant it would get you off. (Was that a weird thing to say? Lol) Anyway, most of these are available in store in smaller, single-use trial sizes to experiment with before committing to a larger size. Trial sizes are not available online however.
But do not think that because one female libido enhancer product did not work for you, none will work for you. Everyone (and every product) is different You must keep trying to get the right product to make the man in the boat the happiest. 🙂
Somehow food and sex go hand in hand. Not because most people want to actually have sex with food, but because sexual pleasure and food both release dopamine.
Dopamine is a neurotransmitter that sends all the feel goods to the rest of your body: the food you crave and pleasure are both known to release this satisfactory chemical. That is what makes edible underwear, and specifically, edible panties, such a fun gift.
Everyone loves the idea of edibles: edible panties, edible underwear (and even edible handcuffs and penis rings and uhhh, other things!); it is an exciting idea. We actually sell quite a few of them. They do make a really great gift, but mostly for that, “OMG, no they didn’t!” shock factor.
As a gift to be given at bachelorette parties, or even as a white elephant exchange, they are great. Always a big hit, and a great reason for an actual “laugh out loud” response. Edible panties are certainly worth the laugh, and affordable enough to be added to any actual gift.
The idea of edible underwear, isn’t always a practical one. When do you put them on? Sure you can slip into them quickly while your partner is in the shower, and be sprawled out on the bed by the time they get out. That is the practical thing to do. Then there are people like me who want to go have a night out, and come home with a sexy surprise that has been right under your partner’s nose all night.
There is no way you can incorporate edible panties in that way. Wearing them underneath your clothing for an evening at the movies or out to dinner, with plans of stripping down with a sexy gift for your partner is out of the question!
I imagine it would be comparable to having a stick of gum in your pocket all day without the wrapper. Eventually it would just become a sticky mess, but in this case a sticky mess in much more delicate parts. In other words, it might not be edible underwear after that! No thank you!
The Crotchless Edible Panties are always a popular seller. Like I said, they are really great for a gag gift, but they tend to be more like a dried-up fruit roll-up attached to some string, like a tie on bikini bottom. A HUGE disappointment if you really did have something more sexy in mind like your partner “nawing” near your delicate bits in search of a juicier surprise.
We also sell the other styles of edible underwear like the Candy Posing Pouch and Candy G-String. They are similar to those hard candy chokers that were a big hit back in the 90’s.
It is some elastic string that are strung with hard candies that fit like “under-roos”. They are a bit more practical. They fit a lot more like underwear.
Your partner can actually successfully eat the candy off the string in a single chomp, one by one, to build anticipation.
But the chances of your partner eating all the candy in one go is slim. It is a lot of little hard candies to eat! Like I stated previously, they are attached with an elastic string, and occasionally, they will snap back.
That is exciting if you are into that sort of thing, but not so much if you aren’t. Especially not to have it snap back in your face. I can see the headline: “Edible underwear fights back; man in ER with candy up his nose”.
The only thing I didn’t mention is the flavor. The panties that are like fruit roll-ups taste similar to that product; while the string is a decent flavor of licorice. The candy posing straps, g-strings, and handcuffs, are quite tasty, but I don’t suggest “finishing your meal”. There will be other things on your plate that require your attention besides the candy. It is not a lot of calories either, so there is no excuse!
Regardless, Edible underwear may not being as practical for use as the name suggest; receiving them as a gift or introducing them to your partner for fun, may still bring something more positive into the bedroom.
Edible panties are a gift to make you giggle, but also open up the door to other possibilities. Edible underwear play can come in many much more pleasant forms, and this could really open the door to those other possibilities.
And what man doesn’t like candy and …. !
Lubrication and the eternal questions: What is the best lubricant for sex? This can be a slippery subject for some people, but you should know that it is ok to need an additional lubricant, and it is ok to want it. It is ok to add a lubricant for sex! You shouldn’t listen to Rhonda Rousey, the once undefeated female UFC fighter got a lot of grief for “lube shaming” a year or so ago. She commented something along the lines of that a woman should never need a lubricant for sex in her life, and she if did, it was because the guy was being lazy and not taking his time.
Our society seems to intent on telling everyone else how to live, what product to use, what size to be, and so much more. I never imagine I would hear “lube shaming” of women FROM A WOMAN. Rousey’s comment made me laugh on one hand, because it made me realize she has never dated any men with extra-ordinarily think penises. Without a good lubricant for sex, it just wasn’t going to happen – regardless of 
how “patient” or “lazy” the guy was.
Maybe the partner isn’t taking time or is being lazy in the case of a few people, but it is not that way for the general population. There are so many needs for adding a lubricant for sex. The obvious need to find the best lubricant for sex is dryness — which is COMPLETELY normal and not because you have a lazy partner. There are so many reason as to what can cause dryness from medical, natural, and medications – and women who have given birth will also tell you that they rarely get as much vaginal wetness afterwards. In speaking to customers one-on-one, I find that most don’t realize that their over-the-counter allergy medicine will cause dryness; yes, even in the vagina!
Finding the best lubricant for sex helps to avoid the risk of skin tearing which can increase the transfer of STIs. Lubricants also just lead to a more satisfying or more pleasurable experience with or without a partner. But the key remains to find the best lubricant for sex that you and your partner will both enjoy.
Rousey most likely didn’t know that the number one cause of condom breaks is due to a lack of enough lubrication, because the condom itself can affect a woman’s ability to generate more lubrication for sex and the sex act.
There are so many different kinds of lubricants as well, I’ll be writing specifically about water based, silicone based, and hybrids. Each lubricant for sex reacts differently for each person using it. A general complaint with a lubricant is that it gets sticky or tacky. If you are encountering that problem pay attention to what kind of lubricant you purchased. Everyone is made up of a different body chemistry, so switching from water based lube to a silicone based lube, or from silicone based lube to a hybrid lube fixes that tacky reaction.
Sometimes however, (and I hate to admit this), the tackiness or stickiness is because you bought a cheap crappy lube (probably at Walgreens. Oops I didn’t mean to say that). I always tell customers LoveWorks is a specialty store, so we are going to carry better quality products, and be more knowledgeable about which lubricant for sex are better than your average drug store brands. Feel free to ask and share with us what you do or do not like about the lubricant you previously tried. We can help you find a great match, and your comments remain with us as we talk to other customers and finding the best lubricant for sex in LoveWorks.
Water based lube is probably the most popular form of a sex lubricant on the market. They are typically the cheapest type of lube sold. Of course, this is going to depend on the brand as some lubricants will be more expensive than others. But usually in each of the different brands, water based lube will always be the cheaper option. Water based lube is always toy and condom friendly. It cleans very easily, no staining of the sheets or clothing. Your body also absorbs water, so any water based lube will eventually get absorbed into the skin. Which is why you get a tacky or sticky feelings more often with a water based lube. Just apply more lubricant and it should solve the problem quickly.
One of the best lubricant for sex is from the brand “JO” and is called H2O. It is available in classic, warming, or cooling. It is a higher-end water based lube, and it has been found to be less sticky or tacky than others. I always like to look at the ingredients listed in water based lubes and compare them just for fun. JO H2O only has 5 ingredients. From my view point, that is the way to go. Less is best when it comes to what you are putting inside of your body, (no pun intended, lol).
Silicone lube is by far my favorite! Unlike water based lube, your body won’t absorb them, therefore they last a lot longer. Unfortunately they can be (much) more expensive, but a little bit of silicone lube goes a long way. You will likely use only 1/10th as much silicone lube versus a water based lube. 10 to 1: that is a huge difference and when you use it you will understand why.
Because massage oils are not made for internal use, I like to recommend silicone lubricants for that purpose. They don’t absorb, so they stay slick, and if it turns into more than a massage, it is already made safe for entry with no irritation. The ingredients tend to be really good for the skin and leave it so silky and smooth, so silicone lube is great for people with sensitive skin.
The saddest thing, and the major drawback for a lot of people is that the silicone lube can NOT be used with most sex toys and is not recommended for use with condoms. Silicone lubes applied to a lot of sex toy materials will eventually break down (destroy!) the material and make it look as it were melted over time; ruining the sex toy, or lessening the effect of the condom.
Silicone lube sometimes stains, so caution needs to be taken while using it to not make a mess, however higher quality brands are not as big of a problem. The best lubricant for sex made of silicone is not washed-away or “cleaned” as easily by water because water will not break them down (but that is a good thing in some ways too). It means you can use them in the pool, shower, or even the rain if you feel up to it! If you have ever had sex in a pool you know it can be a bit of a struggle at first, but a bit of silicone lube will ease that right away. Men usually complain more than women because they put the lubricant for sex on their hand, and then apply to their penis. After that, they need something to wipe their hands on – and the slick feeling doesn’t go away so easily! But when they realize how well the woman likes it, they usually forgot about the slippery hand.
Uberlube is an absolute amazing silicone lube. Once a customer tries it, they don’t buy anything else – everyone agrees it is the best lubricant for sex! Uberlube lasts forever (it seems), and leaves your skin feeling so silky and smooth. It is also one of the most pure forms of silicone lube to purchase on the market today. A true pure silicone lube will have fewer than four ingredients. Uberlube has 4, with one of them being essentially a fancy word for vitamin E. Some alternative uses for Uberlube would be to apply between the thighs to prevent chaffing, as a tattoo brightener and skin serum, as well as a hair serum. Hey, we want you to find as many uses for your silicone lube besides using it only as a lubricant for sex!
A hybrid lubricant is a combination of water and silicone. Typically it is a white in color and thicker. The thicker lube is so nice because it is less messy. It goes where you want it to go, without getting all over the bed, etc. You get the benefits of a silicone lube, with the ease of a water based lubricant for sex. Hybrids are still longer lasting, but they do clean up easier than a silicone based. You still want to use caution when it comes to what materials your toys are made of.
However, in the store our current number one selling lubricant in general, is the Sliquid Silk. Their lubricants in all varieties sell amazingly well. Sliquid Silk is vegan friendly. Being vegan friendly in my opinion, is super important because it means it should be really friendly for internal use. Sliquid in particular is made for people who are super sensitive. It has a neutral ph and encourages the body to maintain its natural ph. Sliquid Silk also emulates your body’s natural lubrication, so it works with, and encourages your own lubrication to produce. I am telling you, it is AMAZING!
When choosing the best lubricant for sex for you, make sure it is one that works for you. Do not settle for tacky or sticky lubricant that you don’t like after the first or second use. Throw it away and buy a lube that makes you feel good. Of course, when using any lubricant for sex (but especially silicone lube), use caution to prevent spills, as the floor and other surfaces could become slick and potentially dangerous. And have a wash cloth on or near the bed for any potential “whiners” who feel their hand is too slippery! Other than that, have some fun.
If you visit a LoveWorks’ store, ask us any question you would like. If we don’t know the answer, we will immediately find it. But you would be surprised how much we can tell you about our products. We are very happy to tell you about the best lubricant for sex or any other item! Don’t be shy – just ask!
The most common topic I address in the stores is “marriage romance”. In particular, the question I get asked most is, “how do I spice things back up again?” Couples who have been together for extended periods of time are seeking that “new love” feeling from their partner again. It makes total sense. Marriage romance fades as habits and patterns form in a relationship early on. Sometimes it comes down to one of two sexual positions once or maybe twice a week. The answer I give is simple: foreplay! It can be defined as “sexual activity that precedes intercourse”. So basically, whatever turns you on, and gets the blood flowing.
Foreplay can start during the day. Take the time to text more often during the day, and get creative with your texts. You can’t send the 
average, “do you want me to pick up dinner” boring type of text. Remember, this is Marriage Romance 101: Your message needs to be something more sexy, more personal, more exiting. Let them know you’re thinking of them.
One simple way to open the conversation is to send a simple and quick “I am thinking of you” message. Then shortly after, let your intentions be known. Share a memory of your favorite wild night with your partner. That text opens the door for further conversation. Continue corresponding through out the day getting naughtier and naughtier with each text. Marriage romance doesn’t happen without effort – this is something that you must work toward.
In the store we currently have such a large selection of lingerie for under twenty five dollars. That would help with visual foreplay. Sometimes the extra effort to put on something sexy is enough and it is appreciated. The removal of it can be fun too. My personal favorite is to put on the entire outfit, stockings, garters, the works, but then put on clothes on top of it all, usually a dress or skirt and have a date night out. The entire night is spent “accidently” showing peeps of what’s underneath. It is easiest done by hiking a skirt up in the car, or crossing my legs, and showing the top of the thigh high where the garter meets. Making it an “accident” doesn’t draw much obvious attention to it, but just enough they can’t wait to get home and rip your clothes off to see what’s underneath. That is one way to restore marriage romance with basic teasing and naughtiness.
I also suggest a blindfold for any type of fun touching. When you eliminate one of the senses it makes the other senses get heightened. We do sell some in the store, but in reality, you can use nearly anything as a blindfold. Keep this in mind with the following suggestions I make or come up with other marriage romance ideas on your own.
Using ticklers, (especially while blindfolded and unaware of exactly what it is), add a wonderfully surprising and different texture to play. 
Of course you can use your hands or fingers gently, feather ticklers, rubber ticklers, or for a more advanced person, a pinwheel. We call various types of the Wartenberg Pinwheel in the store and online. I say more advanced, because it is incredibly intimidating to a lot of people. It certainly looks scarier than it actually it.
The pinwheel is made from steel, and has a rolling head of sharp looking prongs you roll over the body. Use the pinwheel gently across the nipples, feet, genitals, or any other pleasure zone. Since it is made of steel, you can place it in the freezer for a few minutes to cool it down. In cooling it, it will add a total mind blowing effect. Similar to using an ice cube, but without the wet mess.
Marriage romance is about “time”. Taking the time and interest in exciting your partner; gently and lovingly teasing your partner until both of you are worked up and remember the initial excitement that brought you together.
Another popular form of foreplay on our marriage romance guide, would be edible play. I will say this is more popular with the younger crowd, or beginner, rather than the advanced or older group. It can seem a bit cheesy sometimes with the edible panties, or edible lubricants in their cutesy containers. However, the entire “game” of edibles should not be so overlooked.
We have body drizzles and chocolate paints that are actually good tasting, and less messy than chocolate syrup! The Sensuous Deluxe Body Chocolate is actually very yummy! It is thicker, so it is a “less messy” chocolate than a syrup or body drizzle, and comes in a great little jar for storage and a brush for painting on the body. Once opened the chocolate does need to be stored in the fridge. But it is by far the best, most authentic flavor you will get. Our marriage romance section also includes the full line of “Gelato” premium oral gels from JO. They include Salted Caramel, Tiramisu, Creme Brulee, Hazelnut Espresso, and Mint Chocolate. The taste is impressive!
Continuing with edible play, Kamasutra makes a wonderful edible body dust. The brand Kamasutra actually makes a ton of really great “marriage romance” or relationship enhancement items. I love to recommend them to customers. The brand makes their items look as if they were created and packaged for adults.
Like I said previously, a lot of foreplay items look really cheesy by their packaging, and I think that is why fewer older or more advanced couples are less likely to try them.
The number one selling body dust would be the Honey Dust in Honeysuckle flavor. It is packaged in a little satin pouch, and comes with a hand held size feather tickler. You simply dip the feather tickler into the powder and tickle your partner with it on any of their naughty bits. Then you can nibble it off. It is deliciously delightful!
Also comes in strawberry and raspberry.
I feel like an intimate massage is sometimes the easiest way to get someone naked and 
ready for a good time. There are edible massage oils, but I personally prefer to steer away from those. They tend to have some form of sugar in them, and that means they can get tacky quickly. I find that there are two amazing options, both are actually made by Kamasutra as well. Set the mood which is sure to aid your marriage romance with one of Kamasutra amazing massage candles. The candles smell absolutely sensual, literally to die for! After the candle is lit for about 15 mins, blow the flame out and pour onto your partner’s back and start massaging. The wax is actually made up of coconut oil, shea butter, and plenty of vitamin E. The wax from Kamasutra candles will not burn the skin!.
It does offer a great warm massage, without the irritation a warming oil sometimes has because of that ingredient. I use the coconut pineapple scented one as often as I can get my partner to rub me down with it! My skin loves it, my aches and pains love it, and the end result is always worth loving! 😉
Kamasutra also offers a more basic, but grown up style massage oil line. Their Aromatics Sensual Massage Oil line is by far the most 
popular in my store! It is a non-warming blend of essential oils in several different scents. The most commonly sold Kamasutra scent is the sweet almond. These oils also have a high dose of vitamin E, which make them amazing for the skin.
They are pretty powerful smells, but essential oils are a sought out thing right now. And we love the Kamasutra line of oils and lotions because they have been around for many years without any negative comments from our customers.
Just remember foreplay or marriage romance enhancement can be simple, but it is mostly about bringing you and your partner back together, or about doing that little extra to add some extra spice back into your life. There is always more than what I mentioned in this article already such as sex dice, games, vibrators, etc., but it’s all about what peaks your interest.
Also, all the items I specifically mentioned above look really well together in a basket or arrangement. They make a wonderful gift if you need to leave any hints for your partner. Plus, you can take that special basket of goodies and make plans for a naughty weekend getaway. We don’t call it marriage romance for nothing!
Bullet vibrators come in all different sizes. They all do the same thing; which is to offer clitoral stimulation. What size you want to get is total personal preference. California Exotics makes teeny tiny mini bullet vibrators, that happens to be excellent sellers here in the Spring store. It is called the Whisper Micro – Heated mini bullet vibrator.
This mini bullet vibrator is fairly standard; the remote is attached to the bullet by a cord. It requires two AA batteries for use. The mini bullet vibrator actually does heat up slightly. It will not be so much that you get burned or irritated by it, but just enough to send you over the edge will climaxing and sort of take it to another level. I know this area is already pretty hot down there, (temp and physically, lol), but adding a bit of heat really helps spice it up.
Far smaller than most (hints the micro part of the name). It is only an inch in length, and 0.35 inches wide in length. I have to say that 
I dislike this vibrator, for that reason. It is too tiny. It has a decent speed, but it is so easy to lose grip of. There have been many times I was using one of these mini bullet vibrators, and then lost my grip right before climaxing! That is THE WORSE thing that could ever happen, in regards to sexy solo time. We still sell it quite often, so that has to be just my personal opinion. Who knows, maybe I just don't hold on as tight as I should, but after I had that happen a couple times I was done ever using mini bullet vibrators.
I actually know for a fact that an old friend of mine holds this particular bullet very near … or at least in her car. One night her husband and I went out for drinks. We had a great time and stayed out until the bar was forced to shut down. I fell asleep in the car on the ride back to their house. No one likes a drunk driver so I crashed on their couch that night.
When I got up to leave in the morning I noticed something hanging out from the bottom of the passenger door from the front seat of their car. It was one of the mini bullet vibrators we sell! My friend probably entertained her husband on the ride home, and thought she had it tucked back into her secret hiding spot of the car But nope, it was there hanging out by its cord. To be funny I took a picture of it dangling from the bottom of the door and sent it to her with the caption, "what even happened last night!" She was just thankful I gave her the heads up that it was out dangling in her driveway! Lol.
Truth is you wouldn't have been able to see it from the street or anything, and how it caught my eye, I don't even know. But it sure gave us a good laugh. The mini bullet vibrators are small enough to hide almost anywhere – as long as you remember to hide it!
The point is that just because one person doesn't like a toy, doesn't mean you won't. It is such a personal choice, and in the end only you can make the choice for yourself. You know your body better than anyone else. Recommendations can be made all day long. But they are just that. You get to choose what works best for you, and we have plenty to choose from!
But when it comes to mini bullet vibrators, this one by CalExotics is one of the best.
