Jess

One of the most common sex toy questions we get asked is "how do I care for my Fleshlight?"

Like many sex toys, a good scrub under warm water followed by a spritz of antibacterial sex toy cleaner keeps your toy fresh.

But have you noticed how real feel toys, like Fleshlight, THRUST and TENGA, don't feel the same after cleaning?

In this weeks YouTube video, Jess gives you step-by-step instructions for how to clean your realistic sex toy and maintain its soft skin-like feeling.

(Hint: use renewer powder!)

This week, we made Roy read us cards from the Lovehoney Oh! Talk Dirty Sex Game (alongside a few terrible 'Dad Jokes') in silly accents. The task? Don't laugh!

See how we got on in this weeks sex vlog as we play our very own version of 'Innuendo Bingo'!

What is a condom? And why are they so popular for ensuring safe sex?

Well, firstly, barrier methods of contraception (which is what a condom is) are the only type of contraception that protects you and your partner from STI's as well as unwanted pregnancy.

When used correctly, they offer an astonishing 98% success rate, but in order to be properly protected, you need to know what you're doing.

In this weeks video, Jess and Sammi give you the lowdown on latex (and non-latex) love-gloves, condom-friendly lubes and everything else you need to know before putting one on.

Come back next week for part 2, when we show you exactly how to put a condom on (properly!)

A question we get asked a LOT at Lovehoney is "how can I make my penis bigger?"

Now, we like to remind people that bigger doesn't necessarily mean better, and it's often better to learn some tips and tricks to use what nature gave you.

There's a lot of truth to the old saying "it's not the size, but what you do with it that counts".

But for those penis-owning people out there who want to boost the size of their boner, there are several ways of doing so, for both short and long term gains.

If you hunt around the internet (or have a peep in your junk emails, for that matter!) you'll trip over dozens of ways to increase the size of your penis.

However not all of these methods are particularly safe or reliable (bee stings anyone?!) and some can even lead to shrinkage later in life, so it's really important you do your research and choose a safe way to magnify your meat flute.

In this weeks video guide, Jess and Annabelle tell you 4 sure-fire ways to do exactly that!

If you're lucky enough to be travelling abroad for your holiday this year, you might be considering taking some sex toys with you. Excellent!

Now, there are some things to think about before you travel.

Are sex toys legal in the country you're visiting?

Will you be stopped at the airport?

How much lube is the right amount of lube?

Learn the answers to all these questions and more with Jess and Sammi in this week's YouTube video.

One of the most exhilarating things you can do alone, masturbation is great for the body and mind.

But did you know that you can make your solo leisure time even better with just a few accessories?

We've compiled our favourite ways to jazz up a hand job in the video above.

Use all of our tips at the same time to make 'getting to know yourself' at least 500% better*.

Your partner's asked you to peg them.

You've said yes.

You already know the basics: warm up, use lube, talk to your partner etc...

But what about what you don't know?

We picked the brains of several couples who regularly peg to find out what you can expect from your first pegging experience.

This is what they told us...

(Yesterday's blog: '7 Things You Should Know Before Being Pegged')

1. You Know Nothin' (Dong Beau)

As with most sex play, your first time is unlikely to be your best, and the same goes for pegging.

If this is your first time pegging, you're probably not ready for how talkative pegging needs to be, or how you'll need to practice "driving" your new temporary appendage.

Additionally, if you have pegged someone before, but this is your first time with a new partner, don't assume you know how it'll go.

Most peggers say that pegging with a new partner is like pegging for the first time again, so be ready to re-learn most of that you thought you knew.

So, you're thinking about trying pegging for the first time.

You already know the basics: warm up, use lube, talk to your partner etc...

But what about what you don't know?

We asked several couples who peg on the reg(ular) to tell us what to expect from your first pegging experience.

This is what they told us...

(Tomorrow's blog: '7 Things You Should Know Before Pegging Someone')

1. Expect the Unexpected

If you're about to try pegging for the first time, chances are you've already imagined what you think it will be like.

Now, we hate to burst your bubble, but it's unlikely that your first pegging experience will live up to the fantasy.

Much like first-time sex, pegging requires practice to make it great (and that's just getting the pole in the hole!)

Don't be disappointed though. Once you have the physical side of pegging down, you can focus on other elements, like domination and role play, to fully realise your fantasy.

Why a Massage Wand Vibrator?

'Cause they're magic!

As well as being magical, wands are wonderfully versatile and can be used for all sorts of play, from romantic massage right through to kinky fetish fun (and everything in between).

They're a great non-intimidating introduction to bedroom accessories, particularly for couples who'd rather steer clear of anatomical toys, and offer loads of play options without looking like a body part.

Plus, with just a couple of attachments in your midst, a wand can bring the pleasure of several toys, in one neat package.

This allows you to explore a whole world of pleasure, without dedicating your whole wardrobe to sexy products.

(Not that there's anything wrong with that!
