Put your Petal to the Metal!

A lot of people have metal in them already, 

a brace in one's leg, a hip,
maybe even a metal plate in the head! 

Now let's talk about the metal that gives 

you oh so much PLEASURE!

Metal toys may seem a bit too scary, 

but these are the same people that were scared about glass! 

Now if you LOVE glass toys, then why not metal?!?

Now let's remind you that you've come this far 

to have an open mind, 

let's keep you going in that right direction!

Metal still has all the benefits of glass.

It's non-porous,
ANY kind of lubricant can be used on them,
whether it's a thick & silky silicone based lubricant
or a thin & slippery water based lubricant.
One of the great things about
both glass and metal
 that differed from any other toy,
temperature adjustable!

Want a warm to mildly hot toy?
Slip it in a large microwavable bowl,
drench a smaller size towel in water,
wrap the towel around your favorite glass or metal toy,
place it in the bowl
and microwave to your desired temperature.
This should take no longer than 1 min,
depending on your microwaves capability.
Place your wrist over the hot towel,
if it feels too hot, let it stand and
cool down a little while.

Want a nicely chilled toy on those HOT summer nights?
Place in the fridge in some camoflage
(this varies with one's privacy i.e. kids,
parents, in-laws from out of town, roommates).
No access to a fridge?
Place in a container with water and ice.

Metal is great for people with allergies and 

who are very self aware of what they put inside themselves.

Cleaning these toys is a piece of cake!
Hot water and mild soap is all it takes.
Want it REALLY clean?
Invest in some great toy cleaner!

There is one HUGE difference between
glass and metal that makes metal stand on it's own.
Metal CAN NOT break!
Unlike glass,
these babies aren't going away
with a slight wack on one's night stand table.

These metal beauties can be used for anal,
vaginal, G-Spot, Prostate massage,
kegel excercises...
what ever you want...
and all of these can be done
with the same ONE metal toy.
No worries about bacteria growing,
not on metal.


So how about you embrace it like our
favorite fictional character
Anastasia Steele.

"My mouth is already open from panting.
I open wider, and he slides a large cool
metal object between my lips.
Shaped like an oversized baby's pacifier,
it has small grooves or carvings..."I'm going to put this inside you..."

Happy Friday!
;)

Oh those wondrous Balls...

Now, whether you have heard of the famous Ben Wa Balls from the latest book 

or you're just looking into improving your sexual health,

(Good for YOU, by the way!) 

there is no doubt that THE Ben Wa Balls,

are not new to the scene!

History of Ben Wa Balls

Ben Wa Balls are known to have been used as far back as 500 A.D. all over Asia. 

The balls were made of metal or ivory,

and were at first inserted into the female 

in order to increase pleasure for the male during intercourse. 

It didn't take Asian women long to figure out that the 

Ben Wa Balls could be used in order to induce an orgasm with the art of teasing.

Women in ancient Asia, from Thailand to China to Japan, 

used the subtle clanking vibrations to achieve the big O or for foreplay. 

The balls were soon attached by a silk thread or chain 

so that removal from the vagina became easier.

One of the first "western" encounters of Ben Wa Balls was made by 

Ralph Fitch, a famous English traveler, who was one of the firsts to explore 

Mesopotamia and India. 

About 12 years after Ralph Fitch encountered Ben Wa Balls, 

in the 16th Century, an Italian exploring Thailand 

discovered men using Ben Wa Balls to lengthen their penis'.

Do we suggest Ben Wa Balls for this use? 

Absolutely not, it sounds excruciatingly painful!

But there you have it,

Ben Wa Balls have an incredible history, 

and are possibly, not only the world´s first vibrator, 

but also the first organ enlarger!

What Exactly Are Ben Wa Balls?

Ben Wa Balls are small metal, glass or plastic balls that are hollow on the inside. 

An even smaller ball is often times placed inside, 

the rolling of the interior ball creates a small continuous vibration. 

The subtle continuous vibration has been known to bring on an orgasm. 

Some women will feel nothing at all. 

This is totally dependent on the sensitivity of an individuals Vagina. 

What Are Kegel Exercises?

Kegel Exercises strengthen the P.C. muscle a.k.a. 

the pubococcygeus muscles which helps prevent unwanted urination. 

As many of you know, as you grow older, you may have a tendency to leak urine 

whenever you laugh, sneeze, and/or cough too loudly. 

This is true for not only women, but also men. 

Doing Kegel Exercises helps strengthen the pelvic floor, 

meanwhile, producing a tigher vagina, and 

ultimately, stopping unwanted urination. 

If you don´t know where your P.C. muscle is, 

it´s the one muscle between your Pelvic bone and your tail bone. 

By strengthening your pelvic floor, both men and women are able to enjoy better intimacy.

How to Use Ben Wa Balls?

1. Use the restroom before placing the balls in the vagina.

2. With clean hands, Insert one ball at a time. 

Putting lubrication on the balls will help them glide in. 

(Women have said that inserting the balls is similar to inserting a tampon.)

If you’re not used to inserting tampons or if you’re having trouble,
you should lift one leg up. 

If that doesn’t work, try inserting them while lying down
with your legs spread open as far as you can.

3. Once they are in, Squeeze your leg muscles together
and then your PC muscles together to hold the balls in. 

The balls should push down a little bit inside your vagina,
and they will make your vagina feel “full”. 

Much like tampons, you should eventually get used to the feeling.

4. Hold the balls inside for at least 15 - 20 minutes a day
to strengthen your PC muscles.
Work your way up to a time you feel comfortable.

It isn´t unusual to hold them for hours for a better workout.

5. If any balls slip out, wash them well with a very mild soap and water,

or a proper Toy Cleaner, and slip them back in.

6. There are several ways to remove the balls including:
jump up and down, sneeze, cough,
sit and bear down as if you’re having a bowel movement,
or inserting lubricant to help them slide out, etc.

If you think you might have a hard time removing the balls, 

then you may want to purchase Ben Wa Balls that are strung onto a retrieval cord. 

Which are PERFECT for beginners!

In any case, it is NOT possible for the

Ben Wa Balls to disappear inside the body, from the vagina.

Keep in mind, when choosing your Ben Wa Balls,
that if the Ben Wa Balls are too heavy and small,

you may want to go to a larger size or even to plastic balls. 

The larger the Ben Wa Balls are,

the easier it is to hold them inside your Vagina. 

Conversely, the smaller the Ben Wa Balls are,

the harder it will be to hold them.

Smaller Ben Wa Balls are most highly recommended

for an experienced user only.

*A word of caution, many people forget about them long enough 

to make a run to the dry cleaners, grocery store or run other errands. 

You don't want the Ben Wa Balls to fall out during this time,
as that would be rather embarrassing! 

So don´t forget to take them out if you´re going for a run, 

going to the store, or going to do other errands.*

Overall Maintenance for Ben Wa Balls

Ben Wa Balls are easy to clean and because of they are generally smooth, 

hard surface, they can be cleaned with soap and water. 

However, some Ben Wa Balls have strings, some are not seamless,
some are textured or have other objects protruding from them.

In this case, it is strongly recommended that you use a  toy cleaner. 

These toy cleaners cost anywhere from $10-$16 and can be used to clean toys for a few months. 

Ben Wa Balls, compared to other toys,
are easy to maintain, clean, and use.

Overview of the Benefits of Ben Wa Balls 

Ben Wa Balls, Ben Wah Balls, Wa Bah Balls,
Wah Ba Balls, Burmese bells, Benoît balls,  

Duotone balls, Orgasm balls, Venus balls,

they´re nothing short of miraculous!

For pleasure for yourself or both you and your partner. 

For a strong pelvic floor and better health as you grow older. 

For the simple joy of attempting something adventurous,
Ben Wa Balls are here, 

they´re here to stay,
so give them a try.

50 Shades of Kink...

With all the hype of the infamous book

that has made BDSM practically bust into the mainstream,

making even suburban/city mommys enticed by the BDSM scene or

having them thinking of adding a little something more in the bedroom.

How about we go over a little

BDSM (Bondage, Discipline/Dominance, Submission/Sadism, Masochism) 101.

 First, what is BDSM all about?

BDSM is not a slavery aspect...it's a self conscious choice and a consensual agreement between adults.

BDSM plays with your other senses and is not solely devoted to sex.

It plays with you spiritually, mentally, physically and exploring all sorts of new sensations.

It allows you to explore your fantasies and go beyond role playing.

To solely get your BDSM 'Tips' & 'Education' from porno movies, is a bad idea...

Pornos with BDSM is made for 'Entertainment'.

A BDSM relationship is more than that,
it's an allowance to have someone win your trust and vice versa.

So, you want to simply dip your toe in the pond of BDSM... 

A great starter for beginners to such activities...

a blindfold...

having a blindfold on, makes the simplest touch have a completely different feeling.

Not knowing what's coming or where, makes your nerve endings have a shock of feelings.

Adding a restraint...

whether you choose handcuffs...

Bondage tape...

or

Rope.

Allowing yourself to be restrained is a way of showing your partner,

that you trust,

that you give up the will to move,

and are allowing your partner to have their way with you.

Perhaps a bit of  role playing,

for someone being bad...

and maybe needing a spanking.

Whether you choose to use your hand or with a softer rope whip, for instance a

Silk Rope Whip

This a an ideal starter for it's softer appeal.

Instead of a leather one(which are a great classic to the whip family),

a silk rope whip is less intimidating and once you feel this soft whip you'll want two

(seriously, it's very soft!)

Which ever little piece of kink you choose...

remember to have fun responsibly and with consent!

Searching for the great G-Spot

Yes, it's existence has been quite a debate. 

Even without the exact coordinates, 

nearly all women still have areas that they may find particularly stimulating. 

 With this in mind, medical experts say, 

the location of any such G-spot is likely as diverse as their beholders.

  We hope that the large group of women who love sex, 

would not change the ways that they have found to enjoy themselves 

and instead become fixated on making certain to stimulate their G-spot to orgasm every time.

Just relax and have fun!

Whether you have found yours or haven't,

if you're a believer or not...

exploring for a treasure isn't a bad thing right?!?

Here are some products, positions, and tips to help, and to enhance, your exploring!

Products

It's pretty and funtional...

Note to self...some women prefer a hard surface to be able to reach orgasm.

Next is Doc Johnson's Rock Star Stevie Vibe!

It resembles, a very much more expensive, Lelo's Gigi vibe.

there's no reason not to trust them to make a sexy toy right, and they have! 

The Stevie Vibe is sleek, powerful and at a fraction of the cost of the Lelo's Gigi, we'll take 2!

Positions 

Doggy Style

Get down on all fours with your man kneeling behind you and have him plunge inside you, grabbing your rear for balance. A little firm, well-placed stroking of your G-spot can open up a whole new orgasmic world. If he’s the exploring kind, encourage him to thrust far enough inside you so that his testicles hit your body.

The Wanton Wheelbarrow

Start by standing and facing a bed or a chair. 

Bend over until your head and arms are resting on its surface. 

Have your man stand behind you and grab one of your ankles. 

Make sure to keep your knee slightly bent 

as you shift your weight to the leg that's still on the ground. 

Lifting your foot to rest near his hip, he should enter you from behind.

In closing, if after ALL this useful info and still no deep G-spot fireworks...

there's no need to fret my pet!

Simply have fun with the exploring and the 'getting-to-know' your body better.

Just worrying and ONLY focusing on finding the G-spot

may be detrimental and damaging to your sexual self-esteem.

It may also discourage those who cannot find it on you.

*On a side note*

Women with an low embarrassment meter, should find out how they react to G-spot stimulation in private, before sharing it with a partner for the first time, since stimulation can elicit strong emotion, anything from laughing, crying and/or (whoa!) squirting.

Blow His Mind!

If there’s one skill that every man would like a woman to have, that is none other than knowing
how to give a B.J., giving head, or a blow job.
The old saying 'you have to give to recieve' doesn't fall far from this advice!

One of the most common mistakes that women make is thinking
that all the work should be done by the man in the relationship.

However, if you want to have a great sex life,
you should do your part and learn about the techniques
in bed that will give him the utmost sexual pleasure.

So what exactly does it take to give a man great head?

Below is a crash course on how to give a man great head,
which will lead him to have an orgasm that he is not bound to forget anytime soon.
So great, that he will want to pay you back again and again and again!

Step 1: Be In A Comfortable Position

Just like penetrative sex,
there are a multitude of positions that you can try while learning how to give a B.J. to your guy.
You can either have him lie down in bed, have him standing up or make him sit on a comfortable couch.

Let’s say that you choose the last position.
What you can do here is kneel in between his legs
so that you can gain easy access to all ‘the goods’.

Although it only takes a few minutes of direct stimulation for a man to have an orgasm especially when you’re using your mouth, you would not want to have things over too soon – so make sure that you’re in a comfortable position while going down on him.

Step 2: Start Giving Him Head By Slowly Licking Him

It doesn’t matter if he’s already hard or not.
The best way to start giving him head is by using your tongue in one long,
slow licking motion from the base of his penis all the way up.

Do this on as many sides of his penis as you can,
then when you feel that he’s all worked up,
that is the time that you can slowly take him into your mouth.

Step 3: Use Your Tongue, Mouth & Fingers

As you slowly take his penis deep into your mouth, make sure that you don’t ignore the rest of his package. Use your tongue, mouth and fingers to stimulate the rest of his shaft.  Use an up and down motion with your fingers to cover the part of the shaft which you cannot take into your mouth. Making an up & down motion with your mouth and hands, is just the beginning,
but don't forget to suck as well.
Creating a suction around his penis encourages more blood flow to his member and more sensation.

Showing him that you are really into it will be a huge turn on, so stare into his eyes and watch his reaction.  Finally, marvel in your sexual prowess at your being able to give him the ultimate pleasure in bed – and use every tool at your disposal to give him a mind-blowing orgasm that he’s not bound to forget anytime soon!

 

Tips

*Don’t forget to gently tug at, lick or even place one of his balls into your mouth
(if you know that he likes it or don't know yet, try it!)
You want to make giving head an extra pleasurable experience and unforgettable for him.

* A great tasty lubricant

is great incentive for the giver of the BJ, besides seeing your guy get off.

*Some guys may even like a pinky or fore finger graze his anal opening or to even be inserted.
(be sure to have neat, short nails.)
If not your finger, a slender vibrator or prostate massager

* Apply slight pressure applied in 'taint' or perineum area
(the area of skin between the scrotum and anal opening) with your thumb.
Lightly grazing with your finger tips will also give a tingle (close to a tickling) sensation.

*For the giver of this oral pleasure,
the gag reflex on some people may be more sensitive than others when attempting some deep throat action. An interesting trick for when you feel the gag reflex coming is to simply swallow.
This takes practice to know not to panic and to time it when
you know are going to place his penis deeper in your mouth.
Relax, breathe through your nose and if all else fails a quick fix is a throat numbing spray

 or gel/balm

 

Warnings

The worst way to receive a blowjob is for the receiver to

actually feel your teeth on him – so keep your teeth covered with your lips.

The best way to prevent accidentally grazing his penis with your teeth is by relaxing your jaw.

How To Pick The Right Toy For Yourself

With a zillion and one sex toys out there, finding the right one for you can seem like a daunting task. Everywhere you go, there's new online retailers that offer about a million different styles, products, and sizes of sex toys.

So how do you know which one is right for you?

Let me help you out.

Let me start my handy-dandy primer with this: quality matters.

Take it from me, who once bought the absolute cheapest vibrator possible only to have it nearly explode while I was using it. Not, as you might guess, something I want to happen to you. Or anyone. Ever.

Buying quality doesn't mean you have to spend a zillion dollars, just try and go with the middle of the road toy, price-wise.

With that said, let's find you a sex toy!

I like to keep my sex toys versatile, especially when it comes to speed. That way I can adjust the speed and intensity whenever I want.

Most vibrators feel great on the clitoris, so anything you pick should be great there.

I love the 10x Power Bullet 

for clitoral stimulation. The 10x Power Bullet gives you a strong vibration & variety in pulsation. If you prefer a cordless option T.C.B. Bullet.

T.C.B. really does 'take care of business'!

Its simple design gives you 3 speeds by push button, quiet and much strength, despite its small appearance!

If you're looking for something to reach the G-spot (up inside the vagina) they make a lot of great vibrators specifically for that particular area.

The Couture Collection Seduction Stimulator

It's curved design makes great contact.

If you want a blended orgasm (I highly recommend!), go with something like the

G Kiss

which will stimulate both your G-spot AND your C-spot (clitoris) at the same time. They make a ton of different varieties of these. You have your choice of these, whether girth, length, rotating, bendable, etc.

If you're looking to be discreet about your sex toy, there's the

Maxi Wanachi

which (supposedly) fools airport security every time. It'll also fool nosy roommates and children, should you want to hide your sex toy in plain sight, looks like a neck massager.

My favorite, though (and yes, I've tried them all) is the We-Vibe 2,

which is a vibrator you can wear while having sex with a partner. It feels amazing for both involved and (here's the best part) can be used solo, too. It's like two for the price of one!

There's a We-Vibe 3 which is the exact same design, but has a wireless remote, charging dock, 6 modes instead of 9, and 4x more stronger vibrations.

 Happy Shopping and Happy Friday!

Sex Voltz!

This 72 hour pill is a great blend of active ingredients and herbal supplements.

For men that weigh less than 200 lbs, one pill is sufficient, if he's over 200 lbs. then it's safe to take 2 capsules. This pill is becoming a favorite for men of all age groups, from the 21-39 years old, this pill is allowing them to get an erection again faster after climaxing. For the men in the over 40 age group, this still gives them the results without the 'hangover' headache.

It provides a firmer, harder erectile response, improves sexual performance, and longer lasting sexual sessions.

This pill can be taken with alcohol, in moderation.

For best results take on an empty stomach for the pill to kick-in with-in 30-45 minutes, if food has been consumed, then wait 5 hours after a meal to have the same kick-in time. With any enhancement pills, it shouldn't be taken by anyone with diabetes, high blood pressure or existing heart conditions. 

Now our beginner vibe, it's been around for awhile, but it has yet to disappoint,

Lia Dual Stimulator

It's sleek, quiet, powerful dual motors, pliable, pure silicone, with 10 different functions.

This is a great beginner dual vibrator with it's slender design and easy operation.

It's 5" in length and has a 1" girth.  

The powerful motors are strategically placed for G-spot stimulation and clitoral stimulation.

The ridged design is pleasurable without being overwhelming.

This vibrator gets an 'A+' from us.

The next two vibrators are new to the scene but they're making waves of satisfaction across the board!

The advanced vibrator pick is from the

Couture Collection Colétte Curved Massager

This one is new, but WOW is it powerful!

It has 7 functions of vibration, pulsation & escalation. It's flexible shaft moves with you, feather touch controls with luminous LED lights, that light up to which vibrating motor is being turned on, silky smooth unscented silicone, whisper quiet, it can be used in and out of water,

3 motors throughout the shaft, and a fast automatic on/off button. 

It's 6.25" long and 1.75" in girth.

Powerful, is one word to sum up this seamless sleek vibe!

Last, but certainly not least, the highly-anticipated

We-Vibe 3

The We-Vibes were great to begin with, but now it's COMPLETELY seamless, 

has a wireless remote, 40% more power and a high tech magnetic charge station.

Toys have come a long way, and this one takes the cake for best in show.

We hope for more new exciting toys in the New Year so we can keep brining you the very best!
