As the trend to “go green” spreads into the world of sex toys, we’re seeing more and more eco-friendly products, which I think is fantastic. Manufacturers are taking certain lifestyles and material preferences into consideration as well, and producing products to accommodate and suit those consumers. I love to support women-friendly businesses that produce such quality products. That’s why I requested the Cherry Bombin Restraints from GoodVibes.com to review. Read more…

I requested the Vida Zara from Fascinations to review because it’s so sleek and pretty, and as should be pretty obvious by now, I’m always willing to try vibrating sex toys. Vida has several high-quality vibrators, but I was particularly drawn to the shape of this one since the bulbous tip is bent for G-spot stimulation, but it’s not a drastic curve. Read more…

Believe it or not, this is only the second wand-style massager I’ve tried. My other wand is a Hitachi, and while I love it for its power and effectiveness, the size makes it a bit unwieldy. So when given the opportunity, I eagerly agreed to try a Huster Mini Mistress Massager from EdenFantasys.com. This wand has nearly all the power of a Hitachi, in a more compact size (it’s about 8 inches long) and with a secondary power option of plugging it into a USB port. I can see where that would come in handy.

Mini Mistress has 5 speeds of constant vibration, Read more…

As I’ve said before, I’m always eager to try glycerin-free, water-based lubes, especially if they’re made from all-natural ingredients. So when I saw the Blossom Organics Natural Moisturizing Lubricant on the list of products available for review from GoodVibes.com, I eagerly requested a bottle. I’m so glad I did! This is definitely one of the best lubes I’ve tried so far.

I love that more and more quality, all-natural lubes are now available. Blossom Organics doesn’t contain anything harsh or likely to cause irritation (no parabens, glycerin, petrochemicals, silicones, alcohol, hormones, artificial dyes, flavorings, or fragrances), and it’s “Ph balanced to mimic a woman’s natural chemistry” which is handy.

So here is a list of what it does have in it, along with brief descriptions since some of these ingredients have rather lengthy names.

• Organic aloe barbadensis leaf extract (aloe vera leaf juice which has healing and moisturizing properties)
• Sorbitol (a humectant and thickener commonly used in cosmetics)
• Hydroxyethylcellulose (a gelling/thickening agent derived from plants)
• Hyaluronic acid (scary-sounding name for a natural fluid present in our bodies, used as a topical humectant in cosmetics)
• Organic stevia rebaudiana extract (herb used as a sweetener, this explains the slightly sweet taste)
• Tocopherol (Vitamin E, which is considered to be good for skin)
• Sodium citrate (a preservative and antioxidant)
• Potassium Sorbate (a preservative)
• Organic extracts of paeonia albiflora (peony) root and passiflora incarnata flower (both are considered medicinal, plus with a name like Blossom Organics, I guess there needs to be some flowers in there somewhere)

Blossom Organics Natural Moisturizing Lubricant comes in a flip-top tube packaged in a thin cardboard box. The cap is flat, so the lube can stand up on its own, which is convenient. The lube itself is a gel consistency, but it’s a little on the thin side. As you can see, merely opening the cap and setting the tube down was enough to make some ooze out all by itself. I don’t have a problem with it dripping when using it, though.

The lube is clear, nonstaining, and rinses off easily. I can’t detect anything other than a clean, neutral scent, and while this lube really doesn’t taste like anything, there is a sweetness to it, which I find rather pleasant. This is a great choice to use when incorporating any kind of oral play. Plus, it feels so natural, almost soothing.

The best part, though? Blossom Organics lasts. With vigorous friction, it does get a but sudsy and somewhat stringy, but it still stays wet. Like most water-based lubes, you can always add a bit of water if you feel it starting to dry out or go sticky, but I haven’t had to do that.

What else can I say about it, other than I am deeply impressed. This is really a fantastic lube, and it works equally well for any type of activity, and it’s compatible with all sex toys. I’m overjoyed to have found such an excellent match for my body chemistry.

The Couture Collection Bliss remote egg from California Exotics is my most recent review product from EdenFantasys.com, and it’s definitely the best egg vibe I’ve tried so far.

My main gripe about most bullets and egg vibes is that their cords get in the way. I honestly don’t know why they aren’t all wireless nowadays, as we have the technology. Read more…

There are several perks to reviewing sex toys. One is getting to play with a wide variety of products, many of which I otherwise wouldn’t have ever tried. Another advantage is learning what sort of shape, size, and materials work for my body. Over the past few months I’ve grown very fond of certain brands, and Fun Factory has become one of my favorite manufacturers. Most of their products are out of my price range, but another really awesome thing about being a reviewer is that many online adult toy stores offer ways to earn reward points, so I can get the luxury toys I covet. That’s how I procured a DeLight Click ‘n’ Charge.

I did mention that I had a run of good luck in some sex toy giveaways recently, didn’t I? Well, I’m going to review another prize I won. This one came from a giveaway True Pleasures hosted to celebrate her birthday. There were a lot of awesome prizes up for grabs, and you could chose which one you were trying to win. I picked the Lady Calston Mini 4-play because I love rabbit-style vibes, and I had never seen this one before.  Plus, nobody else seemed to want it so I figured I had a good chance of winning. Strategy, you see. Read more…

By now I guess it’s pretty obvious that I love giveaways. I’ve had a run of good luck lately and recently received a Scorpion vibe from Good Vibes thanks to the giveaway hosted by screaming-violet.com. Read more…

I’m a bit of a foodie, thanks to being influenced by some self-taught gourmets in my youth. When I saw that EdenFantasys.com had a cookbook I’ve been coveting ever since spying it at a friend’s house, I eagerly requested it for review.

InterCourses: An Aphrodisiac Cookbook by Martha Hopkins and Randall Lockridge is not just another compilation of recipes elegantly packaged. Read more…

Fun Factory has come out with a line of products to “seduce you and all your senses” which includes a Kissable Love Fluid that’s available in yummy-sounding flavors like Chocolate, Coconut, Orange, Cranberry, and Strawberry. Being a big fan of Fun Factory sex toys and always eager to try something new, I was thrilled Fascinations sent me a bottle of the cranberry flavored Kissable Love Fluid to try. Read more…

I think it’s great to see manufacturers coming out with eco-friendly products. It’s a trend that needs to grow for the benefit of our environment. As a sex toy reviewer, I go through a lot of batteries, and while I much prefer rechargeable toys, those are often the more expensive options and cost prohibitive for many. That is why I am really excited to review the Solar Bullet that Babeland.com sent me. Read more…
