Le Wand, Reviews, Silicone, USB Rechargeable, Vibrators

Review: Le Wand Point

For a long time, and perhaps even now, my drive for sex toys was driven by aesthetics. I love cute things, but in no other aspect of my life am I able to justify buying multiple versions of essentially the same product just because it looks different. I would never think to purchase different watches or headphones just to have a variety of styles, even if there were slight technical differences between them, but for some reason sex toys defies this thinking for me (and not just because I’m a reviewer). It feels like you can never have enough of them, and I am more than happy to buy a large range of dildos, butt plugs, vibrators and more, even if I already have one that does what it does, based solely on how they look. In fact, I even have multiple versions of the same product just so I could get it in different colours! My point is that I love the aesthetic possibilities that sex toys provide, and so today I want to talk about a company who has embodied this idea perhaps better than any other, and that is Le Wand.

5 Ways to Maintain Your Sex Life During COVID-19

Raise your hand if you’ve ever felt personally victimised by 2020… In fact, it’s hard to imagine anyone that has been unaffected by COVID-19 at this point, and as much as things are slowly starting to improve, I fear we still have a long way to go. Out of everything, the loss of experiences, whether it’s simply going to the pub or going away on that trip you’d planned, is what has seemed to hit people the most. But while those disappointments are easy to express and vocalise, I believe what we’re really missing is human connection and touch. Whether you have partners you’re isolating away from or not, intimacy is something that almost everyone craves, and often it is not just to fulfill sexual desires, but to create and maintain that deeper connection with those that you love. So, how do you achieve that when you’re apart? Well, there’s a lot more to it than just dick pics and phone sex, and so if you’re looking to step up your iso sex game then read on as I list my 5 Ways To Maintain Your Sex Life During COVID-19.

Clitoral Stimulator, Reviews, Silicone, USB Rechargeable, Vibease

Review: Vibease Ruby

All the way back in 2017, a company sent me two amazing products that were so unique that nothing again has ever quite compared. The company was Vibease, and the products were their flagship clitoral vibrator of the same name, and their rabbit vibrator Esthesia. There was a lot to like about these toys, from their strong vibrations to body-safe silicone material, but the thing that was special about them was Vibease’s app, which both products were compatible with. Not only was the app suitable for use in long distance relationships, but it also worked with Vibease’s erotic audio book series, meaning that the toy’s vibrations would increase or decrease in sync with what was happening in the book you were listening to. Perhaps the only downside to all of this however, is that these were Vibease’s only two products, so that once I had them there wasn’t anything new to get excited about. As such, you can imagine how I felt when I recently received an announcement from Vibease informing me that they were going to be releasing a whole new range, including products like the Vibease Ruby!

Ceramic, Deeper Blue Ceramics, Dildos, Reviews

Review: Deeper Blue Ceramics Lilac Matte

It was at a sex convention that I first fell in love with adult products all those years ago, but while so much has changed in this industry since then, it seems conventions, sadly, have not. Walking into a sex con, such as Sexpo, today, looks much like it did seven years ago, and if anything things have gone backwards. With the vast majority of products being non-body-safe, barely any representation from quality brands or retailers, and questionable guest stars, I find myself struggling more and more each year to attend. But the thing that keeps me going is the thought of finding a diamond in the rough, and by that I mean the opportunity to scout out new local businesses that I might not have found out about otherwise, and then share them with you all. In previous years this has led me to finds such as the MiaMaxx Hand-Held Thruster and Cloudnine Hummingbird, and it’s even where I first met Geeky Sex Toys, who I now work for. But it was at the most recent convention that I first came into contact with a small business who I believe represents everything this industry needs right now, and that business was Deeper Blue Ceramics.

Giveaways

Prioritising Pleasure Giveaway!

Let’s face it, things are pretty bad right now. Whether you’re stuck at home, have lost your job, or are “lucky” enough to be deemed as an essential worker and doing overtime (thank you!!), it’s hard to imagine anyone that this pandemic hasn’t affected at this point. Plus, while most of us spend more time at home, it’s far from the days off we usually daydream about. Anxiety is at an all-time high, and with financial uncertainties growing daily, even the usual comforts of online shopping and take-away food feel out of reach. Most of all, this contrast between both having more free time yet doing less is bringing up feelings of guilt and inadequacy in the best of us, whilst things like self-compassion and pleasure seem all but forgotten. Despite this, staying in touch with our bodies and minds has never been more important, and even if it may seem like the furthest thing from your thoughts, prioritising pleasure is essential right now. As such, I decided to put this giveaway together to help you do exactly that, and so I’ve teamed up with the amazing folks over at Xcitme to help send their fantastic new Sym-B Sensual Collection to five of you lucky readers!

Lovehoney, Reviews, Silicone, USB Rechargeable, Vibrators

Review: Lovehoney Gyr8tor

If I had to name one initiative in the sex toy industry that I really love, I think I would have to say Lovehoney’s Design a Sex Toy competition. Launched in 2009, the contest is essentially just a way for Lovehoney to come up with new sex toy ideas, except unlike other companies who may just take a customer’s idea and run with it, Lovehoney definitely make it worth your while. Aside from a $5K cash prize upon your idea being chosen, you will also receive royalties from the product if Lovehoney decide to actually make it. In fact, you’ve probably heard of the Sqweel, which, aside from being the first product to win the contest, went on to become so popular that it ended up making its creator over $600K AUD in royalties. So yeah, the Lovehoney Design a Sex Toy competition is a pretty big deal, and if you ever have an idea worth entering I’d highly advise it. Anyway, the reason I’m talking about all of this is because today I will be reviewing the latest winner of the contest, which is a toy so different that Lovehoney have even gone so far as to include the word “revolutionary” in its tagline. Introducing… the Lovehoney Gyr8tor.
