Germany’s JOYDIVISION FUNglide is a racy lube in a tube that has a consistency that’s not liquidy and not a gel… it’s right in the middle. Non-sticky, water-based and condom-compatible, this lube packs a punch by its mere flavor. I tested Sex on the Beach, which tastes like the alcoholic drink with the same name and it’s hard to believe that it does not have a drop of alcohol in it: it is flavored only with grenadine. While I usually don’t think alcoholic drinks go with the natural flavor of a woman’s or guy’s lubrication, the taste of this lube is fun enough for me to put it in other places and lick it off with the hopes that I can get looped in the meantime. The other flavors — because variety is the lube of life — is Strawberry Prosecco and Raspberry Daiquiri. Gee, now I can have a stiff one AND a drink!
Twist it, flex it, bend it, love it! The Screaming O has set a new sex toy standard with the OGee Twistee multipurpose stimulator, the first of its kind featuring a flexible core that lets you customize it to touch multiple pleasure zones that fixed-form vibes can’t reach. The OGee bends at any angle to hit every nook, cranny and crevice all at the same time! The OGee is powered by The Screaming O’s renowned super-powerful bullet. It features three speeds of vibration operated by a simple push-button. The OGee is made of soft silicone-based material with ridged G-Spot and nubbed clitoral textures for incredible sensations … O Gee! I enjoyed this item because of the flexible body. It allowed me to change the shape in over 10 different ways. I felt like I had several vibes in one. The power on this vibe was not very strong, but did the job. If you need stronger vibration, you can replace the bullet with another Screaming O bullet of your choosing. The packaging on this item is perfect for hanging or standing alone because of its flat bottom. It is a fun product for both new and advanced users.
I am a big fan of candy; however this Jaw Breaker Candy mouth gag from The Stockroom didn’t completely win me over. It’s very appealing to the eye and looks like a lot of fun. It could be great for someone who wants to play around with ball gags but doesn’t want to go all the way yet. Straps are PVC and come in black, red and — my favorite — pink. It’s super easy to clean and slips right through a plastic tube in the jaw breaker. The jaw breaker will fit easily in most mouths — both my boyfriend and I were able to take it. The flavor was a little too sweet for me but my boyfriend enjoyed it. This would be a sweet addition to your BDSM collection.

Forgiven has finally provided what the party person has been in need of for so long. This alcohol metabolizer is natural and chemical-free supplement that helps prevents symptoms such as dizziness, nausea — pretty much everything associated with a hangover. When taking the three capsules for every five to six drinks, the formula naturally helps break down the by-products of alcohol for a faster recovery. With simple usage instructions and detailed information printed on the package, if taken properly, no one should wake up with a hangover again. Personally, using Forgiven before and after drinking, I was able to have a few more drinks than normal before getting tipsy and I did not wake up to a banging headache.

The Breeze Flow is the perfect vibrator to get the job done. The length and straight-forward shape of the vibe is exactly what I look for in a toy — I can tell just by looking at it that this little device is packing a real punch. The Breeze Flow is extremely easy to use, with its push-button control that automatically powers it up. The different speeds offered a variety of enjoyable stimulations and I relished every one! Plus the flowery design etched on its surface gives it a feminine touch that allowed it to fit perfectly into my girly style. The petite and no-nonsense design also makes it very easy to travel with.
The bSwish bCute Curve comes in chic black and deep pink packaging that has a very modern, trendy appeal. I was excited to see what contemporary toy lied within. The brilliant pink color of the silicone really caught my eye and I liked that it came with a pouch that was just the right size to store my new plaything in. The Curve is meant for G-Spot stimulation; however its petite size just couldn’t handle an experienced G-Spot hunter like me. The Curve, in my opinion, is better as a clit stimulator because its vibrations seem to be pinpointed right under the tip. This vibe offered a variety of vibrations and is only powered by a single AA battery to my delight.
The vibrating balls toy is made of a phthalate-free and latex-free silky smooth material, and consists of a hand-held push-button controller attached to two vibrating balls at the end of coated wires. The controller has just one button you press for four different functions of different intensities, speeds and patterns. The balls are approximately the size of cherry tomatoes or large olives, and I understand are intended to be inserted into the vagina as the package indicates, and it also says to “run them along other body parts.” In trying out this product I didn’t really find that I wanted to insert two little vibrating balls internally (there’s not much feeling inside for such a toy), and trying to hold them in place wasn’t really working either. I just didn’t really see much use for this one. The smiling girl on the package looks like she likes it though — LOL. It is a waterproof product and can be used in the tub or shower.
The clear package allows you to see the product front and back, and there are no instructions needed. It uses two “AAA” batteries, which you just put in and screw on the push-button control cap. The material is a nice blue color and is a phthalates-free material that is cushiony and not too hard. There is an unusual odor to the material though, which I didn’t like at all. The shaft is flexible and you can bend from straight to curved to fit your body, but I didn’t like the “cracking” sound it makes when you bend it — it seems like you breaking it. The shape of the clitoral stimulator is nice and placed appropriately, however the vibrating bullet is placed in the head of the shaft, and the vibrations do not really transfer into it. If there were one in the clitoral stimulator instead of, or as well as in the shaft, it would be much better. It does have some nice rhythms and patterns to the vibrations, though. It’s also waterproof, so there’s fun in the shower and in the bath.
The Wisper Collection’s Mystery massager is packaged in clear plastic so I was able to see exactly what I was getting; and after visualizing the experience, I knew I was in for a good time.
This massager conveniently has three speeds, which was great because I was able to start slow and build the intensity. It isn’t a loud massager, which means you are able to use it discreetly. Also, it is waterproof which is a big plus for those who like to play in the shower. The Mystery was easy to use because there was only one button that turned it on and controlled the massage intensity. I think the size and shape of the massager makes it a great toy for beginners to experiment with anal play. This is because there are two balls on one end of the vibrator — one bigger than the other. The toy felt good rubbing against my clitoris especially because of the round shape. It also felt good going in and out of my vagina. I think this is a cool toy to use in bed with my boyfriend because it’s easy to use and feels great. I can rub it against my clitoris while he penetrates me or he can use it on me for anal play.
I can’t seem to get electrosex out of my mind! Check out my pal Harriet Donato’s review of the remote-controlled elecrosex Butterfly unit by Zeus Electrosex.

As open and curious as I am, the idea of using anything electric to masturbate was initially a creepy one, and it took a few weeks to get in the mood to try something so different. What once was reserved for people living “the lifestyle,” is now something anyone can try pretty easily. Zeus Electrosex is one of the only brands of e-stim items that — thanks to its inviting packaging and affordable price points — appears to welcome newbies. Some of the more well-known brands are quite nice, but their high prices and blank packaging are a bit intimidating, and trying them out would almost feel like jumping into the deep end before finishing my first swim lesson and putting on my floaties. Funny thing is the Butterfly is actually cheaper than most rabbit-style vibes on the market, so there’s really no excuse not to try it.
I stuck the Butterfly to my inner thigh to start, so I could test the power of the pulsations and ease myself into moving it closer and closer to my more sensitive spots. And alas, just as I’d been told, there was no ZAP! or painful poking feeling…it was almost like a light tapping that escalates, gets firmer, or tones down with just a push of a button. I didn’t get all the way to orgasm the first time, but I was pretty damn close, and I think as I get more comfortable with the idea of e-stim, I’ll be using the Butterfly more often.
