System JO Peppermint Breath Fresh Spray for Men Review

2 out of 10
Here is my review of the System JO Peppermint Breath Fresh Spray for Men (click to purchase), which is infused with aphrodisiac and pheromones.

System JO Breath Fresh Spray for Women Review: Peppermint Flavour

3 out of 10
The System JO Breath Fresh Spray for Women itself is small and really discreet and easily fits in my purse and bag. I even put it in a jacket pocket on a night out which was handy.

System JO Premium Silicone Lube Review

9 out of 10
I have two things to admit before I start this System JO Premium Silicone Lube review.

DONA Flirty Blushing Berry Linen Spray Review

6 out of 10
I should have completed this DONA Flirty Blushing Berry Linen Spray review weeks ago... I tried. I swear. It was however impossible to complete this review with a stuffed nose and a bad cold. Now that I am back to my sexy(-ier) self, I present to you: the DONA Aphrodisiac and Pheromone infused linen spray!

System JO H2O Flavoured Water Based Lubricant Review (Various Flavours)

9 out of 10
Price:
£5.95
Brand:
System JO
Materials:
Water
I received three sachets of the System JO H2O Flavoured Water Based Lubricant (in three different flavours) to test and review. They are all 3ml sachets with basically the same design on the front, just different colours and a different photo of whatever the flavour is. Clearly this is water-based lube, since it has "H2O" in massive letters on the front.

Cock Candy Strawberry Flavoured Lube Review

8 out of 10
Price:
£5.25
Brand:
MEO
Shop:
MEO.de
Materials:
Water
...seeing the MEO Cock Candy collection had me very intrigued and I gave into temptation. The Cock Candy Strawberry Flavoured Lube comes in an easy squirt bottle, I think if it was a pump option I wouldn't have been as impressed as these sometimes can be a little difficult to fiddle with in the heat of the moment but no, it makes things super easy to drizzle and gives just the right desired amount.

System JO Strawberry Oral Delight Arousal Gel Review

3 out of 10
I have never tried any type of oral gel before, however, I was game for my first time when offered the opportunity to road-test this System JO Strawberry Oral Delight Arousal Gel.

System JO Clitoris Stimulating Gel Wild Review

1 out of 10
Price:
£12.95
A red and black box entered my life, looking very professional and, I must admit, quite impressive. The System JO Clitoris Stimulating Gel (Wild) was clear, unscented and slightly oily. I thought I was off to a good start! No unpleasant smell to put me off, no strange colour that would make me question the ingredients, it seemed like a good start.

Doxy Massager Vs Lovehoney Deluxe Magic Wand Comparison Review

9 out of 10
The head is glorious. It's free from ridges and has a smooth, padded texture. The high-quality finish is also a breeze to clean and maintain. There are a variety of wand attachments that will fit onto it - just like with Lovehoney's design. The cord is also incredibly generous, so you should get a good reach from the nearest plug point to the middle of the bed without needing an extension cord. The sensations it produces are nothing short of amazing.

System JO Coconut Oil Hybrid Lube Review

9 out of 10
The System JO Coconut Oil lube is a thing of wonder, for so many reasons. Firstly, I wonder what the instructions and warning say on the side of the bottle; the font is so incredibly tiny I am completely unable to read it, and am now waiting for an appointment with my optometrist.

DONA by JO Kissable Massage Oil Review: Chocolate Mousse

6 out of 10
The DONA by JO Kissable Massage Oil (Chocolate Mousse scent, Aphrodisiac and Pheromone Infused) proves too much of a good thing can actually be a bad thing. When I first saw The DONA by JO Kissable Massage Oil, my first thought was ‘ A bottle that small wont last long!’ To be fair it is a small bottle but boy was I wrong!

System JO Sex Toy Cleaner Review

9 out of 10
I was delighted to be given the opportunity to test out and review the System JO Sex Toy Cleaner. It comes as a 50.3ml pump dispenser bottle which would make it perfect for taking on travels but I have discovered that it tends to leak unfortunately. The blue and white packaging of the bottle is very unassuming, other than for the red writing 'toy cleaner' on the bottle you wouldn't really know what this was.

System JO Coconut Oil Hybrid Lube Review

4 out of 10
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.

Cock Candy Vanilla Flavoured Lube Review

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.

Cock Candy Cherry Flavoured Lube Review

10 out of 10
Price:
£5.25
Brand:
MEO
Shop:
MEO.de
Materials:
Water
I squeezed a good amount of the Cock Candy Cherry Flavoured Lube on to the penis, what I thought was the right amount to use. I was really expecting to get that awful chemical after-taste you usually get with these kinds of products - you know the one I mean, the one that leaves you gagging for a drink to take the taste away. To my utter surprise this oral sex gel is really tasty and actually tastes like morello cherries.
Je Joue Mimi Review

Je Joue Mimi Review

8 out of 10
Price:
£56.25
Brand:
Je Joue
Shop:
SheVibe
Materials:
Silicone
So how does it perform? Well for a toy this small I was pleasantly surprised, it isn’t the most powerful of vibrators but I would give it an eight out of ten, there is certainly enough power to get me off. The sensations are centred at the tip of the toy as you would expect and in use it delivers deep and rumbly vibrations. I love these sort of sensations so found it really good to use.

System JO Hybrid Lubricant Review

8 out of 10
Overall the System JO Hybrid Lubricant is a nice, almost gel like lubricant which covers well and lasts a good length of time, I did not have to reapply during any of my sessions despite only using a small amount. As a bonus, the handy and compact 30ml sized bottle means it could slip easily into an overnight bag for fun on the move.

MEO Extreme Anal Lube Review

6 out of 10
Price:
£15.00
Brand:
MEO
Shop:
MEO.de
On the cold toys the MEO Extreme Anal Lube was quite thick and I needed, what seemed like, a lot to cover them to my satisfaction. On first insertion the lube was a little “grabby” and not as slippy as I would have liked, but it go better as it warmed up. It became obvious at this point that the numbing effect is only skin deep and didn’t affect the inner sphincter muscles.

Durex Sexlection Gift Box: Sexy Selection Box Reviews

8 out of 10
The brand is best known for their ever-reliable condoms, various types of sexual lubricants as well as introductory sex toys. The launch of the Durex Sexlection Gift Box is an exciting entry for Valentine's Gifts and Christmas Gifts for couples. I hope to publish more sexy selection box reviews here at the Cara Sutra sex blog shortly.

We-Vibe Classic Plus vs We-Vibe 4 Plus Comparison Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£100.00
Brand:
We-Vibe
Materials:
Silicone
Although the Classic was okay, we really liked the power behind the 4+, particularly for Red. Be aware of placement for ladies though, not everybody will fit it exactly. The app is a fun, functional asset to the toy and will be particularly of interest to long-distance couples, as it provides a tangible alternative to merely watching or communicating with your lover.
