DONA Flirty Blushing Berry Linen Spray Review

10 out of 10
The DONA Flirty Blushing Berry Linen Spray bottle is quite simply your standard spray bottle, affixed with a very pretty yet subtle label. Nothing about it screams ‘I’m a sex aid’ and it looks perfectly at home alongside other room, linen and body sprays...

Fun Factory Darling Devil Vibrator Review (with Hybrid Kit Power Pack)

6 out of 10
Price:
£73.00
Shop:
SheVibe
Materials:
Silicone
The toy is made from a good quality body-safe medical silicone, which unfortunately is a little bit grabby, attracting lint and dust from nowhere! The slightly bulbous tip and horns have some flexibility, with the shaft becoming more rigid going down towards the tail.
YES WB Organic Water Based Lube Review

YES WB Organic Water Based Lube Review

10 out of 10
Price:
£14.99
The YES WB Organic Water Based Lube is described on the website as “silky, smooth and non-tacky” and you know what I fully have to agree with each of those points!
NS Novelties Crystal Glass Butt Plug Review

NS Novelties Crystal Glass Butt Plug Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£24.00
The NS Novelties Crystal Glass Butt Plug itself is a bulb type and this one is the medium size in purple, the range has a couple of colour options and also small and large plugs available, I may complete the set...

Sliquid Organics Silk Hybrid Lube Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£12.99
You can never have enough lube. I use it very often, since sex toys feature heavily in my sex life, but it also makes sex without toys easier and more fun for many people. And Sliquid Organics Silk Hybrid Lube has the best of both worlds...
Sliquid Sizzle Stimulating Lube

Sliquid Sizzle Stimulating Lube Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£14.00
Brand:
Sliquid
Materials:
Water
This lube (the Sliquid Sizzle Stimulating Lube), however, is a sort of combination of the two; it is a water-based sensitizer but it’s qualified as a lube rather than a gel, so it comes in a much larger quantity.
NS Novelties Filly Tails Silicone Pony Tail Butt Plug Review

NS Novelties Filly Tails Silicone Pony Tail Butt Plug Review

8 out of 10
...add the pony tail and suddenly an otherwise blasé butt plug is magically transformed into a toy I simply can not live without! The tail portion of the plug is lovely. My particular NS Novelties Filly Tails Silicone Pony Tail Butt Plug arrived in black but it is also available in chestnut (brown) and palomino (blonde), or if you opt for the Unicorn Tails you can get it in a whole host of bright, fun colors! And not to worry, this tail is completely animal friendly and is made from faux hair. Zero My Little Ponies were harmed in the making of this butt plug.

Lovehoney Oh Vanilla Massage Candle Review

10 out of 10
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.
Sliquid Organics Natural Aloe Lube Review

Sliquid Organics Natural Aloe Lube Review

7 out of 10
Price:
£11.99
Brand:
Sliquid
Materials:
Water
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.

10 out of 10
Price:
£750.00
MotorBunny Sex Machine Review exploring real hands on performance, power, noise levels and how it compares to the legendary Sybian.

Bondara Long Multispeed Remote Bullet Vibrator Review | Pleasure Panel

5 out of 10
Price:
£24.99
Brand:
Bondara
Shop:
Bondara
Materials:
Plastic
The Bondara Long Multispeed Remote Bullet Vibrator is a vibrating bullet that I desperately wanted to love. Unfortunately, there’s a pretty big drawback to this item that prevents me from recommending it.
YES Organic Lubricants and Intimate Moisturisers Review

YES OB Plant Oil Based Lube Review

6 out of 10
Price:
£5.95
Materials:
Oil
I chose to test the YES OB Plant Oil Based Lube with my newest glass dildo which features a very large bulbous head. Normally I would only use a tint drop of water based lube on a glass toy but the sheer size of the head on this made me want to try something more substantial that was going to last.

YES BUT Water Based Anal Lube Review

10 out of 10
Price:
£9.95
Texture wise YES BUT Water Based Anal Lube is super thick, it's silky to the touch which surprised me, I've only found that sort of texture before in glycerine containing water based lubes which I actively avoid.

Wicked Aqua Sweet Peach Lube Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£8.00
Shop:
SheVibe
Materials:
Water
The consistency and texture of this Wicked Aqua Sweet Peach Lube really won us over. It is super thin and has a silky gloss like feeling, but surprisingly not runny. I can’t stand a lube that slides off right after you apply it.

Wicked Awaken Stimulating Clitoris Massaging Gel Review

9 out of 10
The first time I used the Wicked Awaken Stimulating Clitoris Massaging Gel, I was completely blown away by one of the best orgasms I’d had in weeks. It was extremely fast and even more intense. I thought this had to be a fluke, so I tried again. And it was awesome, again.

Loving Joy Bound Nubuck Leather Solid Ball Gag Review

8 out of 10
Price:
£19.95
Materials:
Leather
I was really pleased to be testing the Loving Joy Bound Nubuck Leather Solid Ball Gag for this month's Pleasure panel. Thank you Cara and Loving Joy for giving me this opportunity.
We-Vibe Pivot Cock Ring Review

We-Vibe Pivot Cock Ring Review

10 out of 10
Price:
£73.00
Brand:
We-Vibe
Materials:
Silicone
The We-Vibe Pivot is a cock ring intended for couples play. Wearing a cock ring restricts blood flow to the penis in order to produce a stronger erection or delay ejaculation to ultimately increase the length of sex.

Bondara Velvet Touch Silicone Vibrating Butt Plug Review | Pleasure Panel

3 out of 10
Price:
£49.99
Brand:
Bondara
Shop:
Bondara
Materials:
Silicone
Relatively new to anal penetration, I’m not always sure what I will like back there, but the prospects were exciting. However, ultimately in the end there were only a few positive features to this toy and they certainly do not outweigh the cons.

Bondara Super Beaded Remote Control Vibrating Masturbator Review | Pleasure Panel

5 out of 10
Price:
£14.99
Brand:
Bondara
Shop:
Bondara
Materials:
Plastic, TPE
I’m now becoming quite the connoisseur of masturbation sleeves. I’ve tried a variety of different sizes, textures, materials, shapes etc (not electrostim yet though, yikes). Now I know what I do and don’t like from them, I suppose I’ve come to expect certain things from them.
