Top 5 Best Sex Toys For Valentine’s Day

By

Sex toys are a great gift for Valentine’s Day – they let your partner know that you want to do naughty things with them all night long! Picking the best one for your partner (or for both of you) doesn’t have to be hard – in fact, shopping for them can be as much fun as the sex itself! You and your lover can shop together or you can pick a special gift out for her to use alone or with you. Here are the top 5 best Valentine’s Day sex toys – choose one or more for a night full of passion and explosive orgasms!

Ben Wa Balls

Ben Wa balls make an excellent Valentine’s Day gift because it is something that will not only titillate you and your partner tonight, they can help make your sex life better in the long run too. Ben Wa balls are small ball-shaped sex toys that are inserted into the vagina and held there. This will exercise the kegel muscles (the muscles used to stop the flow of urine). They can enhance g-spot orgasms during oral sex and will help tighten a woman’s vaginal muscles for more powerful orgasms. With regular use, Ben Wa balls can make sex feel like the first time all over again! The weighted spheres are inexpensive and can be made out of a variety of different materials including glass or silicone. Some are available with vibration to make the experience extra special!

Glass Sex Toys

Glass sex toys and are beautiful works of art in their own right – and they make excellent Valentine’s day gifts for your lover to use alone or for you to use together as a couple. Many glass pieces don’t even look like sex toys at all – they could be easily mistaken for a gorgeous glass sculpture or a paperweight. Only you and your partner will know what it’s really being used for! The best part of using a glass piece is that it holds temperature really well. If you want to experiment with heat and cold during sex, glass is the way to go. They are also very easy to clean and last a long time because the material is hard, smooth and doesn’t break down easily over time.

Prostate Massage

What better day than Valentine’s Day to try something new? If you’ve never tried prostate massage (and you’re a guy) you’re in for a real treat. You have to get over the initial apprehension of anal play, but after you’ve gotten used to it, you can experience wilder, more explosive orgasms than you’ve ever had before. If this is your first time trying prostate massage, start with small anal sex toys and work your way up to the bigger ones. Always make sure that any anal sex toy that you use has a wide, flared base on the bottom (a ring also works well) to prevent it from getting lost in the anal cavity and garnering you a trip to the emergency room. If you’re nervous about trying prostate massage for the first time in front of a partner, try a toy that is easy to use on your own during masturbation. Then work your way up to doing it with your lover.

Sex Swings

Sex swings will allow you to get into tons of different sex positions quickly and easily, making sex this Valentine’s Day super hot! Sex swings allow you or your partner to get into the more difficult sex positions without straining your neck, back or legs and can be used for intercourse, anal sex and oral sex. If you have a lot of space (and a lot of money to spend) try the stand alone love swing – the swing is mounted on a large metal four-legged stand. If you live in a small home or apartment or want to save a little money, try the over-the-door sex swing instead.

Bondage Kits

If you want to try a little bondage, try using a pre-made bondage kit. Usually these come with paddles, fuzzy handcuffs, feather ticklers, blindfolds and the like. Some of them are even made with soft heart shaped paddles and heart pillows, making them a perfect Valentine’s Day gift! Surprise your partner with a bondage kit and tell her that you’re going to tie her up and have her way with her – after she has her way with you! A little light BDSM and bondage can go a long way in making it a night you and your lover are going to remember for a long time to come.

3 Hot Oral Sex Techniques To Use This Valentine’s Day

By

Oral sex is the perfect sizzling hot Valentine’s Day gift. It lets your partner know that tonight, it’s all about her and her pleasure. Get ready to camp out down south and give her oral sex that will blow her mind and have her begging on her knees for more! Here are some tips you can use to go down on her that will keep her clawing at the sheets and screaming your name until she has an earth shattering orgasm!

Lick Slowly All Around Her Vagina

Instead of heading straight for her clitoris, use your tongue to explore every nook and cranny of her vagina. When giving her oral sex, don’t spare an inch! Make sure she’s clean and well groomed ahead of time and this should be an easy task. You can even use flavored lube to make your job even easier – and more enticing! Let your tongue brush lightly all over her vagina from top to bottom as you tease her and get her warmed up for the real thing. When you start to really get into it, form your tongue into a firm point and begin to lick and suck deeply. If you typically only lick her clitoris when going down on her, giving her this kind of oral sex on Valentine’s Day will make sure she never, ever forgets just how good you can be in bed!

Finger Her G-Spot And Give Her A Blended Orgasm

This is a great oral sex technique to try on Valentine’s Day, especially if your lover has never had a blended orgasm before. A blended orgasm is a mix between a g-spot orgasm and a clitoral orgasm, and can be one of the most powerful orgasms a woman can ever have. Learning how to give her a blended orgasm will not only make sex hotter tonight, it’s a technique you can use any time you really want to rock your partner’s world. Get her warmed up by licking her clitoris and priming her g-spot to be touched and fondled. Once she’s good and ready, slip your finger inside her vagina with your palm up and crook your finger in a “come hither” motion. You’ll be able to feel the g-spot easily (it’s much harder to do when she’s not completely aroused because it’s not engorged with blood and will feel like the rest of the vagina) and stimulating it is simple – just rub the g-spot back and forth or move your finger in circles. Switch back and forth between clitoris and g-spot stimulation until she’s begging you to bring her to climax. Then do both at the same time until she explodes! This may even allow her to experience female ejaculation if she’s really able to let go.

Take Your Time (And Make Noise)

One thing that women hate when it comes to oral sex is feeling like her man thinks its a chore to go down on her. If he doesn’t like it, she’s not going to like it. Or, she’ll pretend she likes it for a few minutes and really won’t get into it. Let her know that you love eating her out and giving her an orgasm with your mouth. Show her that you’re really enjoying it by looking up at her now and then while you’re doing it and acting as though you’re really into it. Don’t lean your head to one side and lick as though you’re bored with it and don’t want to be doing it. She’ll never reach orgasm that way and your efforts (however minimal they may be) will be wasted. Instead, let her know that you love having your face between her legs by acting like it’s the most delicious thing you’ve ever tasted (yes, this really works!) and making at least some noise. You don’t have to be totally fake about it when giving her oral sex, but playing it up a little bit and showing her that you really love licking her up and down can go a long way in rocking her world. Don’t rush her through oral sex either – take your time and if you’re tired, don’t let on. Let her think you could happily be down there forever.

By giving your lover amazing oral sex and taking her to the next level this Valentine’s Day, she’ll never forget how incredible you are in bed – and she’ll be wanting to have sex with you all the time! Don’t forget that after you give her great head, she’ll want to do the same for you too.

Valentine’s Day Checklist – What To Do (And What NOT To Do)

By

Valentine’s Day is a day where you definitely want to have the right moves. When you’re in a relationship (or trying to woo someone new) on Valentine’s Day, you want to make sure not only that you don’t flub things up, but that you also leave a lasting impression. Here are some things to avoid this February 14th, as well as a few things that you want to make sure are on your to-do list for the big day.

Don’t Text Your Ex

You may be tempted to text your ex on Valentine’s Day, especially if you’re alone, but that is a huge Valentine’s Day mistake. If you’re single, you may be getting your hopes up only to get shot down if your ex is with someone else. Or, you may start a relationship up again that is doomed from the start because you and your ex are incompatible. If you are in a relationship with someone new, texting or calling your ex on February 14th will only make you feel bad when your new lover does something super sweet and amazing for you to show you that they care. If you get caught though, it can take matters from bad to worse and could possibly jeopardize your new relationship. Don’t take the chance – it’s so not worth it!

Your Boyfriend Isn’t A Mind Reader

Ladies, don’t expect your boyfriend or husband to know exactly what you want for Valentine’s Day. In fact, don’t even be surprised if he’s just not as into the whole flowers-hearts-cupid thing as you are. Because men aren’t hardwired to love Valentine’s Day or to know exactly what a woman wants for a gift, it’s perfectly okay and even encouraged to drop hints. We’re not necessarily talking about dropping hints that you want flowers or jewelry, but something more along the lines of letting him know things you think are romantic or special.

Consider Flowers Other Than Roses

Roses are very, very played out for Valentine’s Day. While they’re definitely a classic (especially if they’re red), they just aren’t going to give your lover the “wow” factor. Whether you have them delivered to her at work or surprise her with a bouquet on her doorstep, roses will only serve to show that you just can’t think of anything original. Try going with a zen-style planter with a tall pink orchid stem (bonus points because it’s a plant and won’t die right away like cut flowers will) or you can look for pink and white hydrangea blooms or tropical pink stargazer lilies. Red and pink tulips are also a fresh, creative choice for Valentine’s Day!

Don’t Break Up

Deciding that you want to break up with your partner on Valentine’s Day is just a low blow. Even if you simply cannot bear to be with them any longer, wait until at least the day after to break the news to your soon-to-be ex. You might want to consider faking sick or having to stay late at work so your significant other doesn’t end up spending a lot of money on you and end up regretting it later. Sure, you might be tempted to come out of the deal with a few nice things but a move like that will definitely earn you a bad reputation – not to mention, it’s definitely not the courteous, adult thing to do. Also, if you’ve been thinking of ending the relationship for awhile, consider doing it before Valentine’s Day, before your partner has had a chance to plan something big – and expensive. But if you haven’t made the decision by the 13th, you’ll have to stick it out until the 15th.

Make Sure You Say “I Love You” In A Unique Way

Don’t just buy your lover chocolate or flowers on Valentine’s Day. There are so many easy, cheap and amazing ideas out there that will help show your partner that you really do love them! From mowing the words “I love you” in the grass of your front lawn or dedicating a song to your significant lover on the radio, there are a thousand and more ways to make your partner feel super loved and super special this Valentine’s Day. Don’t settle for just a lame gift that doesn’t show you put any thought into it at all. The best gifts come from the heart and are actually very low cost – like stuffing balloons full of secret love messages or making them breakfast in bed with homemade orange juice and toast that says “I love you!”

Jewelry

While jewelry may seem cliche, don’t underestimate the fact that almost every women loves things that are pretty and sparkly. If you want to ask her to get married, a ring is great on Valentine’s Day, but your girl will appreciate a nice pair of earrings or a tennis bracelet just as much. Just make sure to put some thought into it – if she works with her hands all day, a channel set ring would be a better choice than a marquis diamond.

Flowers

Sure, it’s just as cliche as jewelry, but very few women won’t love a gorgeous bouquet of blooms. The trick is, however, to make giving the flowers unique. Surprise her at work with a bouquet of flowers – IN PERSON. She’ll love the attention! Do it right before her lunch break and then take her out to lunch. When she comes back, it’s all her coworkers will talk about! Bonus points if you get a quickie in the car – or at least make it look like you did. Whatever you choose to do, just don’t be the guy who has his secretary send her a tiny, overpriced bouquet off the Internet or the guy who gets the discount flowers from the supermarket after all the good ones have been picked through.

Chocolate

Chocolate is a popular Valentine’s Day present, but it’s easy to go very wrong when buying your woman chocolates for the big day. We’re not talking about the box you can simply grab at the store with the rest of your groceries. These heart shaped boxes can be pretty, but they’re usually filled with cheap tasting chocolate and gritty fillings. This Valentine’s Day, give her fine imported or Godiva special order chocolates. She’ll swoon over those.

You can make it really special by finding out what chocolates she really likes. For example, lots of people don’t like dark chocolate or coconut (especially the cheaper varieties) and many boxes of mixed chocolates have a large ratio of these flavors. If she doesn’t like dark chocolate, go for a milk chocolate mix or hand select which chocolates she’d like. Many specialty chocolatiers and candy stores will allow you to put together a box of chocolates that you pick out.

Wine Or Champagne

Another great Valentine’s Day idea is to surprise her with a bottle of her favorite wine or champagne – you know, the kind she loves but it’s just a little over her price range so she never buys it for herself. Make a point to enjoy it with her. This is where you can make the gift truly special, by enjoying a nice, long conversation with her while relaxing over drinks. Make sure to bring a back up because if she really likes it, one bottle isn’t going to be enough for the two of you!

Weekend Getaway

You’d be surprised at how much a simple change in scenery will rev up your sex life and make Valentine’s Day super special. Even if it’s just for the weekend, a simple getaway with just the two of you will be just the ticket to a perfect weekend. Or, you can simply book a hotel for that night if you don’t have the time or funds to splurge for the entire weekend. Make sure you’re booking a nice 3-5 star hotel, not the sleazy motel across the street. The venue you choose will make a difference. Bonus points if you bring the high end chocolate AND the champagne.

Spa Voucher

Women love to be pampered, but unfortunately, it is a rare woman indeed that will actually spend that kind of money on herself. For Valentine’s Day, get her a massage voucher. Or a hair voucher. Or nail voucher. Or all three. You get the idea – let her know that you feel like she’s worth it and that you appreciate all of her hard work and everything that she’s done for you. Take her to the spa and be there to pick her up when her appointment is finished.

Sex Toy

While getting her a sex toy as a gift can definitely backfire if you’re not careful, all you have to do is pay attention to what she likes and what she doesn’t like in bed to make sure you get her one that she’ll like. If you choose the right toy, you’ll show her that you really do know her well and know what she enjoys. Pair a sex toy with another gift, such as a massage or a night at your favorite hotel, for the perfect Valentine’s Day evening.

Photograph Of You And Her Together

Show your love for your girl by giving her a gift of a photo of you two together in a nice keepsake frame. If you don’t have good pictures of you two together to frame, make your gift a photo shoot together. Get them professionally done and give it to her to put on her desk or hang up in her house – or your house if you share one. This is a super creative and sweet way to show your lover that your relationship with her is important to you and you want to celebrate it on Valentine’s Day.

Comfortable Pajamas

Lingerie is a popular gift for Valentine’s Day, but let’s face it – how often is she really going to wear it? Probably just the once. Come to think of it, isn’t lingerie for her really a gift for you in disguise? It’s kind of like getting her a fishing pole for her birthday – you’re really getting her a present that is for you to use. Instead of getting her lingerie, get her high end, comfortable pajamas to wear that shows her you care about her and her comfort. A sweet set of silky pajamas will make her feel loved and pampered – and it probably won’t be long before the pajamas come off and you get to enjoy the night in your birthday suits.

A Love Book

A LoveBook is a wonderful Valentine’s Day gift, because it’s something that will last forever – a book full of things you love about your partner that you made yourself. It’s an easy gift to give, because the program used to make the LoveBook guides you through the process, but it also allows you to be as creative as you want and customize your LoveBook completely. It’s something she can read every day that tells her each little thing that you love about her.
