I had been thinking about trying a different model and this seemed like a perfect opportunity. This Ocean vibrator is made by Fun Factory, a brand I had heard a lot of positive things about, so it's fair to say I had high expectations from the beginning.

I have taken to reviewing feminine products or smaller, non-sexual items (for now) but I could not resist the Lovehoney Sparkly Nipple Pasties when I spotted them up for review. For a long time I have wanted some black crosses to cover my nipples, whether that be in the bedroom or for photos and that is what really grabbed me when I spotted these pasties on the forums.

To remove the traditional head of the Doxy Number 3 you simply unscrew it. To attach the Doxy 3 Rabbit Vibrator Attachment, you just screw it on. I tried my best to line the ‘rabbit ears’ up with the controls for ease of use. It looked pretty intimidating once it was put together ready and waiting. The Doxy Number 3 is smaller than other Doxy wands, but still pretty big. The attachment made it humongous!

I was selected to review the Classic Erotica Coochy Shave Cream Island Paradise for the Pleasure Panel. At the moment I am mainly interested in trying beauty items, so I was pleased to be chosen. Cara always sends her items faster than the speed of light so within a day, the item was with me. Time to get cracking then!

I had recently been eyeing up Lovehoney's new range of funky classic vibrators, the Positive Vibes, so it was a coincidence that Cara received the collection for the Pleasure Panel to review. I had never used a classic vibrator so I was looking forward to seeing what the Lovehoney Positive Vibes Vibes Before Guys Classic Vibrator was like.

This has to be one of the hardest reviews I have ever written. I've written a fair few in my time, mostly on adult toys, but never has one challenged me so much as this review for the Satisfyer Pro 2 Next Generation.

Massage candles however, seemed to be quite popular and marketed for use in a different way. I had pondered them for quite a while when, whilst placing an order on Lovehoney, I saw this little candle tin pop up in a '3 for £10' offer. I decided to try the Lovehoney Oh Vanilla Massage Candle and I am quite glad that I did.

Lately I have seen a new market open up for 'natural lubes'. They have intrigued me due to the more natural ingredients and mostly catering for vegans. I put myself forward to review the Sliquid Organics Natural Aloe Lube for the Pleasure Panel and was chosen.

I was selected by Cara to review the Adrien Lastic Little Rocket Vibrating Butt Plug from Bondara on behalf of the Pleasure Panel. I was very excited to have this opportunity. My last battery-powered vibrating butt plug died recently and I was looking to invest in something better quality.

This Fifty Shades Darker Release Together Rechargeable Love Ring has the ability to be very powerful but we have never managed to use it at that level. Once the ring is on and vibrating it was just too much hassle to adjust the speed. I also did not find the ridged edge anything special to grind against. Overall the experience was nice but that was about it, although we have tried it a few times.

Cara kindly selected me to review the Pjur Toy Clean Sex Toy Cleaner from Pjur.com in exchange for an accurate, honest review. I jumped at the chance as my old toy cleaning spray had just come to an end and I needed some more.

This Durex Massage Gel is condom compatible, light, non-greasy and won't stain. The added aloe vera soothes your skin and intimate areas and compliments the fact that it's a water-based lube. It's also fragrance-free and suitable for pretty much anything (anal, vaginal and oral sex, foreplay etc).

Pjur Superhero Strong Performance Spray is meant to significantly reduce premature ejaculation and help you last longer. You spray it directly onto the penis and give it a few moments to work beforehand. You are recommended to do a patch test first though to check you aren't allergic to any of its ingredients.

Despite being a bit of a lube queen, I relished the chance of reviewing a few samples of System JO H2O Water Based Lube that Cara had given me. The packaging is clearly for sample use only but it provides you with a basic list of ingredients...

It certainly made me orgasm clitorally and judging by the hundreds of positive reviews, it makes most people orgasm, whether that's by G-spot or clitoral. Since then, it is my 'old faithful' and I can be guaranteed an orgasm if I use it. Sometimes that's what you need. I urge you to try it yourself!

I was given the Durex XL Power Condoms (also known as Durex Comfort XL Condoms) by Cara Sutra in exchange for an honest review. In advance I asked her whether the XL Power was referring to performance or size. It refers to size, which is good for my partner as he is on the large size and prefers to use larger condoms.

I was given the System JO 12 Volt Female Arousing Serum to review as a Cara Sutra Pleasure Panel member. I was quite excited to try this product, in the hope it would enhance my sexual experiences. I have tried a few other products that claim to arouse a female, usually via a tingling sensation.

Cara Sutra chose me to review the silicone-free System JO Coconut Oil Hybrid Lube. I was interested in it due to its ingredients. It claims to be a fusion of water and coconut oil. I haven't tried coconut oil as a lubricant but I've heard lots about it, so naturally I was curious.

I jumped at the opportunity to review the Cock Candy Vanilla Flavoured Lube from MEO for the Cara Sutra sex blog. I am always curious about flavoured gels. I like to know if they make any difference to myself or my partner during oral sex.

By Chili Crimescene: I was given the Bondara Wrist To Thigh Bondage Cuffs set to review on behalf of Cara Sutra. I was quite curious about trying this as I had never tried this particular style of restraint before.
