Sexual Bedroom Essentials Reviews: Must-Have Products for Pleasure & Intimacy

Whether you're looking for ways to enhance pleasure, improve comfort, or add excitement to your bedroom adventures, you’ll find honest, in-depth reviews right here.

What Are Sexual Bedroom Essentials?

Sexual wellness and pleasure go beyond vibrators and dildos. These essentials help set the mood, enhance intimacy, and ensure you have the best experience possible. Some of the most popular categories include:

  • Lubricants – Water-based, silicone, anal lube, flavoured options & more.
  • Massage oils & candles – Turn foreplay into a sensual, relaxing experience.
  • Sex enhancers – Performance boosters, arousal gels & intimate sprays.
  • Adult games & gifts – Spice things up with fun and flirty play.
  • Condoms & protection – Stay safe with reliable, high-quality options.
  • Sex toy cleaners – Keep your favourite toys fresh and hygienic.
  • Latex care – Polish and maintain your latex clothing.
  • Storage solutions – Discreet and hygienic ways to store your toys & gear.

Why Quality Matters

Not all lubricants, massage candles, or sex enhancers are created equal. Some contain irritating ingredients like glycerine and parabens, while others offer luxurious sensations that take your pleasure to the next level. My detailed, no-nonsense reviews help you find the best products while avoiding the duds.

Price:
£19.99
Brand:
Lovehoney
Materials:
Oil
Massage candles are amongst my top favourite bedroom accessories. I love how they effortlessly combine a relaxing visual & scented ambience with hands-on sensuality. I was therefore very excited to be offered some massage candles from Lovehoney's new Apothecary range to test & review. I have both the Arouse and Seduce scented Lovehoney Apothecary Massage Candles.

ONE Vanish Hyper-Thin Condoms Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£9.99
Materials:
Latex
Firstly, thanks to Cara Sutra for sending us this pack of ONE Vanish Hyper-Thin Condoms to review on the blog. We’ve recently started to use condoms again and after not using them for so long we weren’t used to the loss of sensation condoms can cause. We hoped this 12-pack of thin condoms would shift the balance.

ONE Mixed Pleasures Condoms Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£12.99
Materials:
Latex
We’re becoming big fans of ONE condoms right now based on this and our last Vanish hyper-thin review, so play safe folks and experience intimacy as close as it gets with the ONE Mixed Pleasures Condoms Pack.
ONE Oasis Water-Based Lube Review

ONE Oasis Water-Based Lube Review

5 out of 10
Price:
£7.99
Materials:
Water
I didn't actually know prior to this review that ONE made anything other than condoms, so I was curious to see if the ONE lubricants were worth raving about or not. I haven't been impressed with other condom brands that have branched out into lube in the past, but I hoped this would be a different story.

Liquid Silk Opaque Water Based Lube Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£2.40
Materials:
Water
It stands to reason that a lubricant that takes it’s name from one of the finest materials on Earth should attempt to live up to that reputation of luxury and care. And it does. The Liquid Silk lubricant is, simply, one of the finest personal lubricants you’ll ever have the pleasure of using.
Earthly Body Strawberry Edible Massage Oil Review

Earthly Body Strawberry Edible Massage Oil Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£16.99
Materials:
Oil
This oil is strawberry flavoured and is designed as an edible massage to ensure an erotic and romantic massage. Although I have a smaller size bottle, the full size bottle of Earthly Body Strawberry Edible Massage Oil you can buy through the links contains 236ml - so it's a decent size for if your planning a night away with some goodies and has an easy unscrew lid to allow access to tip easily onto your partners back or where else you might fancy…

New York Toy Collective Love Bump Vibrating Ball Sack Review

7 out of 10
You can really enjoy the feel of a heavy set of balls slapping against you when you are having a vigorous play session. When I fitted them to a dildo on one of my Fucking Machines it really did hit the spot – there is something so feral about receiving a good pounding and having a heavy set of balls bouncing off your clitoris.
Lovehoney Couple's Sex Toy Advent Calendar 2021 Review

10 out of 10
Time to introduce the sexy STAR of the festive season: the Lovehoney Couple's Sex Toy Advent Calendar 2021 (aka Lovehoney Best Sex Of Your Life Sex Toy Advent Calendar).

Boy Butter Original Oil Based Personal Lubricant Review

Boy Butter Original Oil Based Personal Lubricant Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£7.95
Shop:
SheVibe
Materials:
Oil
The lubricant provided a really smooth feel, and was somewhat sheeny in its appearance but really did not feel sticky or feel like it left too much of a residue after use.  The Boy Butter Original Oil Based Personal Lubricant was fairly long lasting and did not require much of any reapplication during use and did provide quite a consistent slide to it for a a good period of time.
Mates SKYN Natural Condoms Review

Mates SKYN Natural Condoms Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£12.99
Materials:
Latex
The relationship may have come to an end but my love of sex and play has not and my skin to skin play is on hold for the time being so I was in need of plenty more condoms! As it would happen Cara's sex toy tester program had just started and she required a reviewer to test out the Mates SKYN Natural Condoms which I was more than happy to volunteer my dick for.

Lubido Hybrid Lubricant Review

Price:
£9.99
Brand:
Lubido
Shop:
Bondara
Materials:
Silicone, Water
The first thing you can’t miss about the Lubido Hybrid Lubricant is the colour and we love it! The white colour makes a pleasant change from other lubes and its likeness to cum adds to the excitement. The bottle has the Lubido branding with purple bubbles and a pump action dispenser including a handy safety clip to avoid any unwanted squirting.

Lubido
Shop:
Bondara

Often if I’m doing a bit of online shopping of the risqué nature I will just add a bottle of lube “just in case” or “it always comes in handy!”  Along comes the lubricant we have today, the Lubido Aloe Infused Anal Ease Lubricant to give it its Sunday name.

Price:
£14.99
Brand:
ID Glide
Materials:

My first explorations in the world of lube drew me to the popular and easily-found Durex range. Through my years of reviewing sex toys, sexual products and pleasure enhancers, I discovered and still love the Sliquid lubes for masturbation and sex.
