Pure Romance products every woman needs, the foreplay edition

Hot Heart Massager and Burning Desire Massage Candle
 This portable and reusable heat pack is perfect for a relaxing and sensual massage.  When you start the reaction, the heart will stay hot for 45 minutes to an hour, and is perfect for massaging your partner, yourself, or just for keeping your hands warm on chilly nights.  Use it with our Burning Desire Massage Candle, which contains soy wax that never gets above body temperature.  Simply burn the candle for a few minutes until some wax has melted, then blow it out and use the plastic spoon to apply the melted wax onto the area you want to massage.  Then get ready for the most relaxing foreplay you've ever had!


Bosom Buddy
This tingly lip and nipple balm is really a must for foreplay!  It pulls all the blood to whichever area you apply it to, which causes you to tingle and heightens sensation.  You can use it on your lips and give you partner tingly kisses all over their body, or you can apply it to your nipples while your partner goes to town on the yummy flavor.  Just remember to keep this one above the hips, ladies!  We've got tingly products for your lady parts, but this one will just leave you squirming in your seat in a bad way.


Dust Me Pink
Do you have any spots on your body you wish your partner would pay more attention to?  This is your answer.  Dust Me Pink is a sugar-free dusting powder with a lovely berry flavor (also now available in cinnamon!) that you can apply absolutely anywhere on your body for your partner to discover.  Want to keep it really interesting?  Apply it to four strategic places, but tell them you put it in five places.  Then sit back and let them explore all night.


Tickle and Whip
Sometimes your partner just needs a little bit of training in order for foreplay to meet your needs, and that's where Tickle and Whip comes into play.  When they're doing things right, give them a little tickle with the fluffy feathers to encourage their good behavior.  And when they're not giving you what you need?  Give them a little snap from the soft and playful whip!  The feathers are also perfect for dusting on a little Dust Me Pink wherever your heart may desire.


Blindfold
You don't have to be into bondage to enjoy a little blindfold action now and again.  Eliminating your sense of sight heightens your other senses, so even the lightest touch from your partner can feel so much more exciting.  Incorporating a blindfold into your foreplay can be a great way for the same-old, same-old to feel brand new.


Whipped
This kissable, creamy lubricant is like the icing on the cake that is foreplay.  It's emollient texture is perfect for genital or small body massage, as it sticks around longer than a gel or liquid lube.  It also tastes great for those oral favors most of us ladies aren't big fans of (more on that next!).  Whipped is also great for use with our c-rings or sleeves, so it's not just for foreplay!


Great Head
You know that one thing that he loves but you aren't so keen on?  We all know the one.  Well, this product is here to help.  Great Head helps you give the best oral favors of his life in a few different ways.  First of all it creates the slick feeling in your mouth that really gets him going.  Second, it relaxes (not numbs) your gag reflex so you're not yakking while you're snacking!  And third, it tastes lovely.  Penises usually don't taste very good, but this'll make it seem like you're getting some calorie free dessert!


Ex-T-Cee
Now, even with all this foreplay, sometimes your body's just not responding as it should.  When that's the case, reach for a tube of Ex-T-Cee and leave your worries behind.  Just apply a pea-sized amount directly to your clitoris and you'll be ready for the big show in no time flat!

Lubricants 101

I often talk a lot about lubricants.  I always show them during my parties, and they're the most often asked about product in the ordering room.  I thought I'd share with you some info on lubrication in general and specifics on the ones that we offer.

Although lubricants have been around for years, women often don't realize just how great lubication can be for enhancing intercourse and other types of sexual activity.  Lubricants can be an essential part of maintaining sexual health by helping to prevent tearing, irritation, and discomfort during sexual activity.  Lubricants can also help to make sex more fun and enjoyable for both partners.  Often it's your partner applying the lubricant, which is a great way to increase arousal during foreplay.

Many women think that if they are not experiencing enough self-lubrication naturally, then they are not aroused or there is something wrong with them.  In reality, this couldn't be further from the truth!  Under perfect circumstances, your body naturally becomes lubricated when you are aroused.  However, external factors, such as stress, medication, diet, and even sleep patterns can affect a woman's ability to naturally lubricate, often not producing enough moisture to last the duration of intimate acts.  A small amount of lubrication applied to the penis, vagina, or bedroom toy will ease penetration and take the place of the natural lubrication that may be lacking, allowing the experience to be more enjoyable for both partners.  Lubricants can also help if you are practicing safer sex by using condoms; it can help to ensure that the condoms do not tear or break during sexual activity, ensuring they work the way they're supposed to.

While an abundance of lubricants are available in different colors, textures, and flavors, Pure Romance's line of lubricants come in two basic forms; everyday lubricants and playful lubricants.

Everyday Lubricants:
These everyday lubricants are safe to use, well, every day if you so desire.  These lubricants may actually improve a woman's vaginal and sexual health by preventing tearing, irritation, and discomfort, while replacing any moisture or lubrication she may be missing.  Everyday lubricants are safe for all women and are a must to keep next to the bed!

The majority of our everyday lubricants are water-based.  Water-based are available in both flavored and unflavored mixtures.  These lubricants do not stain, are safe to use with latex condoms and all other latex barrier birth control methods as well as all silicone bedroom accessories, and rarely cause irritation.  Because water-based lubricants are designed to absorb into the tissues, they can dry out during extended sex-play; however, they are quickly revived with a small amount of natural lubrication, water, or saliva.  Because of their versatility and effectiveness, water-based lubricants are the form of lubricant most recommended by sex therapists and experienced couples.  

Just Like Me:  Just Like Me is our lubricant that doesn't feel like lubricant.  Let me explain.  This lubricant absorbs into you vaginal tissues and helps your body create more of it's natural lubrication, so it doesn't feel like you're using any lube at all.  It is water-based, so is completely safe to use with all of our bedroom accessories, but is not recommended for water- or anal-play.  It currently comes in Original, Strawberry and Key Lime scents/flavors.

Sweet Seduction:  Sweet Seduction is what I like to call the birthday cake of lube.  It gets it's naturally sweet taste from glycerine, which is sugar-free, and, therefore, vagina friendly (sugar = yeast = bad news bears).  It is quite a bit slicker than Just Like Me, but not sticky or gloppy like some drugstore lubricants.  Sweet Seduction is water-based, so it also safe to use with all of our bedroom accessories.  It is not recommended for water-play, but can be used for anal-play.  It currently comes in Original and Vanilla scents/flavors.

Pure Silk:  Pure Silk is our toy-perfect lube.  It is water-based, which means it's safe for use with all bedroom accessories, but is designed to mimic the feel of silicone lube.  What this means is that it is thicker than Just Like Me or Sweet Seduction, but still water-based and -soluble (means it's easier to clean up than silicone lubes).  Pure Silk is perfect for use with all of our bedroom accessories, and is a great choice for anal-play.

Pure Pleasure:  Pure Pleasure is Pure Romance's one and only silicone lubricant.  Since it is silicone-based, it is not safe for all of our bedroom toys (silicone toys and silicone lubricant do not get along), but it is safe with all of our anal toys.  Pure Pleasure is the perfect choice if you are interested in either water- or anal-play.  And, remember, a little goes a very long way!

Playful Lubricants
Playful lubricants can be used in conjunction with everyday lubricants, but shouldn't take their place.  Playful lubricants don't help to improve the sexual or vaginal health of users in the way that everyday lubricants do.  That being said, playful lubes are great to use during foreplay (such as oral favors), small body massage, and mutual masturbation.  Pure Romance currently carries two different kinds of playful lubricants: warming and creamy.

Sensations Warming Lubricant:  Sensations warming lubricant is intended to be a great foreplay lubricant to heighten arousal and sensation.  Gently rub a dime-sized amount onto the skin; as you continue to massage, the lubricant will warm up.  If you gently blow (like you're fogging up glass) on the skin, the lubricant will heat up even more, giving your partner a pleasantly warm sensation.  While a warming lubricant may not be the best option for a full-body massage, Sensations is great for small area or genital massage.  Sensations is also great for oral favors, both ways.  Sensations contains oil so it is not safe to use with latex condoms or other latex forms of birth control.  It is compatible with polyurethane condoms though if you are practicing safer sex.  Sensations currently comes in Original, Hot Buttered Rum, Strawberries and Whipped Cream, Cosmopolitan, Watermelon, and Berry Vanilla flavors.

Whipped Creamy Lubricant:  Whipped creamy lubricant is intended to enhance love-making, as well as to create a comfortable experience for a woman and her partner.  The emollient texture can provide long-lasting lubrication and help to prevent discomfort during intercourse.  Whipped is a great lubricant to use with any of our toys that are intended to be used on a man's penis (c-rings and sleeves), aiding in the comfort of putting the toy on and taking it off.  Whipped is also great for full-body or small area/genital massage also.  Our formula is not compatible with latex condoms or barrier birth control, but is compatible with polyurethane condoms if you are practicing safer sex.  Whipped currently comes in Original, Strawberry Cheesecake, Vanilla Cupcake, and Cinnamon Dolce.

So whether you are looking for water-based or silicone-based, everyday or playful, Pure Romance's line of lubricants is sure to contain the perfect product for you!  Try different textures, flavors, and styles with yourself and your partner to find the perfect match.  Call or e-mail me today if you'd like to learn more about our line of lubricants.
