Love may last forever, but sex…well, it can be a little difficult to maintain that same fervor. Just in time for Valentine’s Day, we’re taking a look at some sensual gift ideas to keep it fun and fresh.
Afterglow Natural Massage Candles – Pink Lotus Scent
$22.50 at A Little More Interesting
This product is a great way for couples to enjoy a tactile experience with one another. The candle is made of a special cream that melts into a lubricating oil from the heat of the candle – though at a much lower temperature than wax, so no need to worry about scalding yourself. Instructions say to drizzle this oil onto skin and massage in for a moisturizing effect. The scent of the candle is very refreshing, so even the massager benefits from an aromatherapeutic experience.
Under the Bed Restraint Gear
$59.95 at Priape
How much do you really trust your partner? Would you be able to relinquish all control to them for an erotic encounter? Furthermore, would it not be fun and a chance for some creativity if everything was left in your hands to pleasure your partner? These restraints can put a whole new slant on a romantic evening.
Flirt Soft Blindfold and Plume de Seductión
$10.00 and $13.00 respectively, $20 together at A Little More Interesting
This might be a fun addition to the restraint gear, or used separately. The blindfold can help with the element of surprise, while the Plume can be used to touch and tickle sensitive areas like the back, the soles of the feet, the nape of the neck, and anywhere else you may want to tickle.
Exxtasy Erotic Game for Men Only
$34.95 at Priape
Want to play a board game together? This ain’t no snakes and ladders – it is designed to challenge you to try new things with your partner depending the squares you land on, and cards you draw. It will set you back if you wimp out on something, but those in an adventurous mood may not be able to finish at all!
“The Whole Lesbian Sex Book” by Felice Newman
$34.95 at A Little More Interesting
Small world - you may recognize this as coming from the author of our Lesbian sex column! The synopsis goes, “whether you are lesbian, bisexual, queer, butch, femme, androgynous, or transgendered – and even if you have just discovered that you want to be with a woman – the whole lesbian sex book is for you.” It promises to be a wealth of womanly knowledge that has hands-on applications.
Clone-a-Willy Do It Yourself Vibrating Dildo Kit
$59.95 at Priape
The intrigue is pretty obvious. Imagine having a vibrating replica of your own, or your partner’s penis. It’s the next best thing to having a 3-way with a clone of your boyfriend! All you have to do is mix the molding powder with water and insert your erection to create a cast. The paste hardens in 60-90 seconds, after which you can pull out. Pour in the liquid rubber, optionally add the vibrator component and 24 hours later your clone is ready to rumble! IT’S ALIVE!
Tantus Vibrating Cock Ring
$55.00 at Priape
If you feel a little jealous that your penis clone can vibrate and you can’t, here is your chance to level the playing field. This cock ring helps to maintain an erection like any other, but vibrates to make an interesting sensation for you and your partner. The ring is made of silicone, and comes in red or purple.
O’My Flavoured Lubricants
$15.00 each at A Little More Interesting
Once standard lubes are applied to your partner, you may be reluctant to put those areas back into your mouth. Though most lubes are safe to ingest, they can taste and smell awful. These lubes exist on a similar premise as flavored condoms, and in fact are water based, sugar free, and condom safe. They come in flavors of Melon, Strawberry Cheesecake, Blueberry Cheesecake, Cherry, Kiwi Strawberry, Pina Colada, Capuccino, and Natural.
Fun Factory Delight
$169.00 at A Little More Interesting
No, it’s not a giant pink tentacle attacking that poor statue! This ergonomic G-spot vibrator is capable of multiple speeds, with some impressive pulsing action that is bound to leave you or your partner weak in the knees. The vibrator is self-contained and water proof. It recharges in its case, which plugs into the wall.
Nexus Male G-Spot Massager
Regular $50.00, Ribbed $100.00 at Priape
How often do you find a sex toy that claims to have health benefits on top of providing a pleasurable experience? This gadget works to massage the male G-spot under the power of your own muscles in that area, and doing a regular regimen of this apparently helps to prevent prostate cancer. You can give yourself a G-spot workout while engaged with your partner, or give yourself something to “chew” while sitting on the couch watching TV together!
So cheers to happiness, true love, and great sex!
