One of the best perks I am privy to as The Intimacy Advisor is getting to try all of the latest, greatest, newest, and funnest sex toys and bedroom essentials on the market! The selection available out there is HUGE, and it can be a little intimidating, especially if you’ve never really explored the world of intimate products before. Many women haven’t found what they love yet, or they haven’t even tried because they don’t know where to start. True Story: before I worked for Lover’s Lane, I owned two sex toys, both purchased from less-than-reputable online retailers. One was a simple, battery-operated, hard plastic bullet with changeable heads, and the other was a cheaply made silicone vibrating dildo that didn’t really do much for me, if I’m honest. I hadn’t yet met the AMAZING Romance Specialists at Lover’s Lane to show me the way. Now I have seen the light, and it is good! Read on for a brief rundown of MY current personal faves, with a little snippet about why I love each one. Whether you own one sex toy or twenty, hopefully this can serve as a jumping-off point to encourage you to treat yo’self with your next one! After all, you deserve it!

My Magical New Bullet:
Remember that hard plastic, bumpy-tipped bullet I mentioned above? This is the toy that allowed me to feel good about throwing that one away! The Unicorn Power Rechargeable Bullet by Evolved truly lives up to it’s magical name. Perfect for solo and couple play, it’s got a comfy finger loop for great control so you can hit the spot every time. It’s ten different vibration patterns will have you seeing unicorns…even the lowest setting is enough to seriously satisfy. Tiny and quiet but remarkably powerful, this fantasy finger bullet definitely deserves a spot in your nightstand drawer!

My DIY Dildo:
This toy is just an all-around fun concept: It’s an arts & crafts project, a bonding experience with your lover, and a new favorite dildo molded precisely on my partner’s member, perfect for when I’m missing him. He has to travel a lot for work, and I recommend this Clone-A-Willy Kit to anyone who has to spend lengthy stretches away from their lover…it’s like they’re there, even when they can’t be…at least as far as your orgasms are concerned. Plain old penis-shaped dildos have never done much for me, but this one matches my favorite penis, so it’s a winner! The vibrating bullet that goes inside makes it that much more fun as well! Pro Tip: Make sure you read the directions carefully before you begin, and have all of the ingredients within easy reach…once the molding process starts, it goes pretty quickly, so you’ll want to move efficiently to get the best copy of your man’s best asset!

My Tube of Smooth Moves:
The Garden of Edo Love Kit from Lover’s Lane offers all of my favorite sex and foreplay products in one convenient canister. Sensual massage is one of my favorite ways to bond with my lover, and the exotic green tea massage oil in this kit feels great and smells SO. FREAKING.GOOD. The aphrodisiac oil and enhancing gel make every sexual encounter that much more intimate and intense. The bath salts also smell great and leave your skin feeling super soft and silky, perfect for an evening of self-care. Most importantly, this kit comes with my favorite lube (and one of our best sellers): the Toko Organica lube feels amazing, never gets sticky, and has a very subtle light sweetness to it, but no strong scent or flavor, and it doesn’t irritate my fairly sensitive skin, which I know is an important concern for many women. Plus it’s water-based, so you can use it with all of your favorite toys AND for partner play!

My G-Spot Dream:
The Orange County Cutie is part of the sunny-colored California Dreaming Collection from CalExotics. All of these toys have great designs and fun features, and they’re sold at a nice price point for high quality toys. This one is a perfect G-spot toy for me. Everything fits at a nice angle, and the 10 vibration patterns and three thrusting speeds means it hits the right spot without being too intense, which some women experience as pain…there are a lot of nerve endings in that G-spot of yours! The cute lily shaped rabbit tickler on the outside adds an extra layer of pleasure for your clit!

My Awesome Air-Powered Clit Miracle:
You may think I’m being hyperbolic with that heading, but honestly, not so much. Womanizer has everything figured out in their Womanizer Premium toy, available in pink and black. The Pleasure Air technology that doesn’t come on until it’s right where it needs to be, and turns off when you pull it away means this toy is discrete yet dangerously pleasurable! Even though the toy is whisper quiet, you’ll have a hard time staying that way yourself! All Womanizer products are my favorite to give as gifts because of the gorgeous packing and the quality of the toys, and while I was a little put-off by the name at first, believe me, these products are 100% pro-female empowerment and sex-positive!! It is one of the best brands Lover’s Lane has to offer! If you don’t have a toy that gives you perfect clitoral orgasms, you’ll definitely want to check one of these out for your self-love sessions!

My Sexy Secret:
If I’m gearing up for a night of romance, these are my favorite panties to slip into. The sexy crotchless Pearl Thong design with a gorgeous sequin applique is ultra-seductive for your lover, and the strand of pearls draped through the opening is the real treasure for you! The smooth pearls gently move around your lady bits with every motion, stimulating and turning you on more and more, without anyone knowing it if you don’t want them to! Women often assume that lingerie is just to give the man some eye candy, but it’s made for you, too! These will make you feel sexy at any size (they come in One Size and Full Figure Sizes!) and just a little naughty, because they hide the secret of the stimulating pearls. Paired with just a dab of a daily intimate moisturizer or even your own natural lubrication, they’ll provide a slippery sensation that’s hard to beat, until you’re ready to kick them across the bedroom for a night of ecstasy.
I hope you’ve enjoyed this peek into my “pleasure chest”! Whether you’re new to toys or an experienced user, I hope I’ve given you some ideas of what to try next, whether they’re for partner play or your own self-love routine. Every woman’s body is different and amazing, and everyone has different turn-ons, likes, and dislikes in bedroom toys. If you’re ready to see what works best for YOU, head into your nearest Lover’s Lane store and let a Romance Specialist help you explore our many demo toys from all the best brands, and get ready to explore deep and wonderful levels of intimacy with yourself, or with your lover. If you find something you’re obsessed with, writing a review of the product on the LoversLane.com or SexDrive.com website is a great way to get the word out so other women can read your words of wisdom and use them to help find something perfect for them! Happy International Women’s Day! Keep empowering yourselves and each other in the bedroom and beyond!
Yours,
~The Intimacy Advisor <3
