Sex Toy Review: Durex Play O and 2 in 1 Massage Mousse Twin Pack

2009-08-24T21:10:00.002+01:00

The Durex Play O and 2 in 1 Massage Mousse Twin Pack is currently excellent value on LoveHoney - just £14.99 for both! (At time of writing).

The pack contains Durex Play O Orgasm Gel which is created for women, by women in order to stimulate the lady parts and result in explosive orgasms. I didn't get too excited (pardon the pun) as I've used other similar gels before and not felt a damn thing, but this time I wasn't disappointed. The gel actually works. It gently makes your bits feel warm and tingly as the blood flow is increased. The stuff is fab either for use when masturbating, or when fooling around with your partner.

It washes off easily, doesn't go crumbly, doesn't stain and is condom friendly. A definite yes from me!

The second item in the pack is Durex Play 2 in 1 Massage Mousse. The great thing about this stuff is it's suitable either for a sensual massage, or as a lubricant. The ingredients make it safe for use all over the body, including the naughty parts. It glides on silkily and is good for light massage. Because of the texture, you're less likely to spill and make a mess like you perhaps would with massage oil. After a while, though, it can go a little crumbly and sticky. However, due to the excellent value of this double pack, I'd definitely recommend it anyway. You're getting a real bargain here - so splash out and have fun!

Sex Toy Review: Durex Play Vibrations Love Ring

2009-07-24T20:50:00.003+01:00

You'd think that one cock ring couldn't be that different from another, right? In this case, definitely wrong. The Durex Play Vibrations Love Ring comes in simple but attractive packaging, and retails at around £6.99. It's single-use only and the battery lasts for around 20 minutes.

One thing that sets it apart from many cock rings tested of late is the fact that the ring itself isn't very stretchy. Of course, it's plenty stretchy enough to insert a penis but not enough to give the option of being worn around the scrotum too, I suspect it would cause discomfort. So for guys who prefer to wear cock rings around the scrotum, give this one a miss.

Despite this factor, everything else was fabulous. It was noticeably more powerful than many other cock rings, without sounding like a low-flying aircraft. This results in delighting the clitoris and vibrating the entire penis - cue beaming smiles all round.

And really, there's not much else you can say about a cock ring. It's powerful and it works! I do think that the price is pretty steep for a single use toy, but if you're looking for that 'wow' factor or you've never tried a cock ring before, you'd do well to start here.

Sex Toy Review: Intimate Organics Intense Clitoral Stimulating Gel

2009-07-22T19:57:00.005+01:00

I was expecting something special when I reviewed the Intimate Organics Intense Clitoral Stimulating Gel, particularly given it's rather steep price for such a small tube. Sadly, I was disappointed. This stuff comes in different strengths, and I was using the most intense one. In short, it didn't work.

With other lotions and potions of this nature, the effects are usually pretty quick. But I put some on and waited. And waited. Then put some more on and fiddled around a bit in case I hadn't put it in exactly the right location (you know how fickle women's bits can be!)... but no. Absolutely nothing happened.

At best, it made a good lube, but in terms of producing nice tingly feelings or a more intense orgasm, it definitely did not do what it said on the tin. Save your cash.

Sex Toy Review: Screaming Two O Cock Ring

2009-07-15T00:01:00.000+01:00

As we'd enjoyed the original Screaming O Cock Ring so much, we were rather looking forward to the Screaming Two O Cock Ring. Instead of just having the one vibrating bullet, this little baby has one at the top and one at the bottom, so dependent on how the guy wears it, it will stimulate different parts.

Worn over the scrotum, the cock ring will stimulate both the woman's clitoris and the guy's balls and perineum, with the added bonus of vibrating the guy's penis. Worn above the scrotum, it will give thrills to the clitoris and woman's vagina and perineum. So it depends on how your guy wants to wear it! Of course, if it's worn around the ball sack then it'll likely delay his climax which may be necessary when wearing this thing!

Sadly, the cock ring is single use - that is, you can use it more than once, but when the batteries are gone, they're gone. That's basically the only downside. The packaging isn't bad, it's functional and eye-catching and use of the cock ring is self-explanatory. It's probably a good idea to switch it on before putting it on too, as the switches are a little fiddly - NOT recommended when you've got lube covered fingers! The vibrations are powerful and it's fairly quiet... that is, it just sounds like a couple of bees in the room as opposed to a whole hive. You could get away with using it if someone was in the next room, I expect.

If you like cock rings, and in particular vibrating ones - go for this. It gets a thumbs up from both of us.

Sex Toy Review: Durex Play Very Cherry

2009-07-14T21:12:00.003+01:00

There's not really an awful lot you can say about a lubricant, is there? But I'll have a go. Durex Play Very Cherry is a sugar-free, condom safe lube. As you'd expect from Durex, it's high quality, the packaging is really nice and it's got a pump lid, meaning no spillages if you knock it over or merely forget about it in the heat of the moment.

It tastes absolutely gorgeous, if you like cherries that is. The closest taste I can think of is the cherry sweets in Haribo Tangfastics, which happen to be my favourites! So this stuff is perfect for oral sex, or swirling over your partner's body and licking off... just use your imagination, the possibilities are endless! It's fabulous as a lubricant too, for handjobs or female masturbation. It lasts ages and doesn't stain so as well as looking great and tasting great, it's good value for money too! It's widely available, but if you're looking for a bargain, check out LoveHoney, who are currently selling it at £3.99. (Price correct at time of writing.)

Sex Toy Review: Screaming O Silicone Bullet Buddy Vibrator

2009-07-06T19:39:00.004+01:00

I like the Screaming O range. It has a great variety of products and the prices aren't too high, so I was pleased when I was sent some stuff to review.

The Screaming O Silicone Bullet Buddy Vibrator is a cute looking thing which packs a punch! I received the bullet with the monkey sleeve, but the other ones available are bunny, dolphin, bear and worm. Also, when you order, LoveHoney aren't able to guarantee which one you'll receive as they're chosen at random. However, I don't think it really matters as you won't see much of it when it's being used for its proper purpose!

The toy is basically a bullet with a cute sleeve, which is removable. The batteries last around 80 minutes and are replaceable. The button is at the bottom, as with most bullets. It's a nice sturdy button which is impossible to get switched on by mistake if you've thrown it into your handbag or overnight bag. Therefore, this is the perfect toy for home or away. Only those in the know would realise what it was too.

The vibrations aren't hugely powerful, but still a lovely sensation, either for masturbation or for additional stimulation during intercourse. It's also fully submersible so great for bathtime fun!

Overall a lovely versatile toy which isn't too pricey. If you don't already have a bullet, you could do much worse than adding this to your collection. Though if you have one already, it's not different enough to warrant the additional purchase.

Sex Toy Review: Durex Play Ultra

2009-06-15T21:06:00.003+01:00

I've had my eye on the new Durex range for quite a while. Given they do condoms so well, I figured they'd be good at sex toys too. And as cock rings go, this isn't bad. The Durex Play Ultra isn't what you'd call a 'normal' cock ring; that is, it doesn't form a solid ring around the penis. If you can see from the photo, it kind of 'hooks' around the penis.

It's quite strange to look at, the vibrating part looks like a miniature penis and it took us a while to work out which way round it went on! There's a little booklet inside the box with full instructions, and you've basically got the choice whether you want it to stimulate the woman's clitoris or perineum. Unlike most cock rings, this doesn't do a great deal for the fella in terms of making his climax more powerful. Obviously he'll enjoy the vibrations but because it's not fully surrounding the shaft, it probably won't delay or intensify his orgasm. Basically, this toy is mainly about the woman. The battery pack included lasts for 20 minutes, and there's a spare one included. However, you'd better hope it doesn't run out mid-shag because it's so fiddly to get the battery changed that you'll both be fed up by the time you've got a new one in!

It does give the product extra value for money, though. You'd be a bit annoyed about spending just over a tenner on something you can use for 20 minutes. Even at 40 minutes it's still pricey, but still good fun.

Overall, not a bad little toy. The vibrations won't blow you away, but for women that find it easy to climax, it's a great way to spend your money.

Product Review: Intimate Organics Sensual Cocoa Bean & Goji Berry Massage Oil

2009-06-09T00:01:00.001+01:00

I was impressed with the first product from the Intimate Organics range that I tried. This one has followed suit! The Intimate Organics Sensual Cocoa Bean & Goji Berry Massage Oil is divine. It smells gorgeous, like you should be putting it on ice cream and munching it - however, ingestion is not recommended, it's not supposed to be edible!

Anyway, as a massage oil, it certainly does its job. It glides on smoothly and doesn't leave any unpleasant residue, and a little bit goes a long way! It looks good, smells good and feels good - and there's not really much else to say! It is a little bit pricey, but because you don't need to use much at once, it should last you a long time and still be good value for money.

Product Review: Intimate Organics Energizing Fresh Orange & Wild Ginger Foot Foreplay Lotion

2009-06-01T18:50:00.002+01:00

I was a little unsure as to why this stuff was so special when it arrived to review. It just looked like any old foot lotion to me. That's until I used it. Wow. An odd thing to say about something that doesn't vibrate, I appreciate, but this stuff is GORGEOUS!

Intimate Organics Energizing Fresh Orange & Wild Ginger Foot Foreplay Lotion, as well as having the longest product name in the world, is organic. The clue's in the name, really. But that basically means that anyone should be able to use it, even if they have sensitive skin or are vegans. And trust me, when you smell it, you will be dying to use it. It smells so lovely I wanted to eat it. Often this type of thing smells nice in a perfume kind of way, but this stuff really smells of what it contains - yummy!!

The idea is, rather than putting it on yourself (although I wouldn't blame you, pop it on like you would normal foot lotion and you'll be whiffing lovely all day!), persuade your other half to give you a foot massage. You'll get the bonus of a foot massage and the lotion makes your feet smell and feel so nice that they'll want to continue playing with them. So if you like having your feet played with - this is for you! It's not cheap, but a little bit goes a long way and especially if you have small feet like me!

I loved this stuff and will definitely be buying more when my sample runs out! Yum!

5. Are you ever going to do some proper writing?

2009-05-16T22:11:00.000+01:00

Now this one IS offensive. I personally don’t see why erotica is looked down upon by people. Even if they do not approve of the subject matter, which is their prerogative, it doesn’t give them the right to dismiss the genre as not being ‘real’ writing.

I, for one, am not a huge fan of science fiction. But that doesn’t mean I think it’s a ‘crap’ genre, or somehow beneath others. It just means that it’s not to my personal taste.

Erotica writers don’t “have it easy.” We face the same challenges that those specialising in other genres do. There are various reasons why writers choose to produce work in certain genres, and some even writer across a variety of genres. It certainly isn’t because we’re less talented writers! Far from it, in fact. Many of my favourite books are erotic ones, and I read them because I genuinely want to, not just because it’s my “thing.”

My personal reason for writing erotica is that I’ve found it much easier to get my work in front of an appreciative audience. For me, writing is most enjoyable when you know people are reading and liking your work. And it would appear that they’re liking my smutty stories. Therefore, I’m going to carry on writing them, regardless of whether narrow-minded people think they’re “proper” or not.

So there you have it. Five impossibly annoying questions, complete with answers. I’d love to hear what you think of them, whether you’re a reader, writer, or both – regardless of genre!

4. Do you get turned on writing your stories?

2009-05-15T22:09:00.000+01:00

Writing, contrary to the beliefs of certain people, is a job. A fun and exciting one, but nevertheless, a job. Which means it’s something that a person takes seriously and does to the best of their ability.

Now, if someone was writing a crime novel, do you suppose they cringe or shed a tear every time someone dies? Of course not. They’re too busy ensuring that they’re maintaining the pace, keeping the characters and situations interesting and constructing something people WANT to read. Then they’ve got to go through and correct typos, grammar, tweak dialogue and remove or change unnecessary or weak words.

It’s no different for an erotic writer. We want to get our characters from A to B using the most high-impact words we can. So engrossed are we in checking for inconsistencies, repetitions and dull descriptions that we don’t have chance to become ‘involved’ in the text the same way we would if we were simply reading something. It’s a constant amending and polishing process until the story is complete. And in my opinion, by then, the writer is so familiar with it that they can’t possibly derive any enjoyment from it. After all, they know exactly what’s going to happen, and why, where and when. Talk about a spoiler!

3. Are your characters real people?

2009-05-14T22:05:00.000+01:00

This is always a fun one to answer. Not least because some people are always going to think you’re writing about them. And as much as I advocate fantasies, I can’t agree with this one. Many people aren’t interesting enough to write about, myself included. Maybe you’ll take bits and pieces from various people – their personality quirks, their looks, job, or whatever, but it’s unlikely that a person will be literally taken as they are and written into a story or book. This goes for vanilla writing as well as erotica.

Of course there will be exceptions to the rule. Perhaps the supermarket delivery guy is a sex god. But unless you have in fact slept with him, how do you know how he kisses, what he looks like naked or if he’s any good in the sack? There’s always going to be an element of fiction. After all, why write about a one-night stand who was totally hot, but had a tiny dick and no idea what to do with it? Not going to happen. You’d make him into a stud with an impressive cock, wouldn’t you?
So in short, no. None of my characters are real. They may bear similarities to real people, but since everyone has their good and bad points, it’s the fun part of fiction to embellish and delete as appropriate. Hence the term fiction.

2. Are your stories based on experience?

2009-05-13T22:02:00.000+01:00

I guess this is a varied version of question 1, but altogether more insulting. Luckily I’m not easily offended and therefore the question merely makes me laugh and/or roll my eyes. You see, I’ve written a lot of stories. Nowhere near as many as my writer buddies Portia Da Costa, Janine Ashbless and Saskia Walker, but still – a fair few.
Now, realistically speaking, how would I possibly have the time to do all these things I write about? If I had in fact done the deed on an army base; tackled not one, but two hunky builders at once and had a sex change in order to have sex with my female teacher, do you think I’d have the time to write about it all? No, I didn’t think so.

So, in answer to the question, no they’re not. It may be that I like a man in uniform and so develop a story around a character I created, but that’s as far as it goes. It’s all fantasy, whether it be my fantasies or those of other people. As long as people are enjoying reading my stories, who cares where the ideas come from?

1. Where do you get your ideas from?

2009-05-12T21:59:00.002+01:00

I often wonder if this is just a polite version of ‘So, have you really shagged on an army base then?’ But let’s imagine it’s not. This question is actually quite difficult to answer. Personally, I get my ideas from a multitude of places; conversations with friends, an attractive film star, books… the list is endless. It often only takes the tiniest idea for me to turn it into a story. For example, in Fantasy Assignment, a short story published in Xcite Books’ Seriously Sexy3, the main character has sex with an army guy in a truck on his base. That idea stemmed from me liking men in uniform, and also knowing that it’s a common female fantasy. All I need is a little seed of an idea, and a story will grow.

5 Questions NOT To Ask An Erotic Writer

2009-05-12T21:56:00.002+01:00

Having written erotica for six years now, I’ve come across a variety of reactions to this piece of information. Some are only a little surprised and fascinated to know more. Others find it amusing at first, then move on. Still more giggle like schoolchildren, adopt an expression of wide-eyed wonder and secretly think I must be some kind of sex-obsessed tart. Along the way, many people have asked questions. I’ve also talked to lots of other erotic writers who have been subjected to similar lines of questioning. So I’ve decided to sum them up to serve as a warning to non-writers and to give fellow writers a good laugh. Enjoy.

In the next few posts I'll be answering the following questions:

1. Where do you get your ideas from?
2. Are your stories based on experience?
3. Are your characters real people?
4. Do you get turned on writing your stories?
5. Are you ever going to do some proper writing?

Product Review: Nad's for Women Hair Removal Strips

2009-05-11T20:36:00.003+01:00

Hair removal is the bane of my life. If I could afford it, I would have electrolysis on my legs, eyebrows and bikini line. However, I can't and so I'm left trying to find the best solution. And I do believe this is it.

If, like me, you haven't got the time to keep going to salons and you don't particularly like the idea of a stranger fiddling near your bits, then Nad's is the answer. They do an entire range of hair removal products, for men as well as women, and here are my thoughts on a couple of them (I have samples of more, so write ups of those to follow).

Nad's For Women Hair Removal Strips come in two types - ones for your body and ones for your face (which are also suitable for your bikini line and more delicate areas, dependent on how brave you are!). They're made from natural ingredients so are unlikely to give you any rashes, and used properly they'll remove hair from the root, leaving your skin completely smooth. This means your hairs will be slower to grow back and they'll also be thinner and less coarse.

The strips are coated with wax, and the idea is you rub a strip between your hands to warm up the wax, peel the strips apart and apply to the relevant part of your body (read the instructions thoroughly on how to do it properly), smooth down firmly, then rip the strip off. It's not too painful if you're used to it, and it's probably best to start on your calves then work to the slightly more painful bits - mine tend to be knees and ankles! Then when it's no longer effective (i.e. not removing any more hairs) use the other strip. I found a much quicker and more effective way than rubbing the strips between your hands - blast them with your hairdryer, you'll get the job done much quicker.

The usage is the same on both sizes of strips, and I found the smaller ones OK to use on the more 'delicate' parts of the body, it just depends how brave you're feeling! The pack also contains wipes which remove all of the excess wax, meaning you won't stick to anything! Always a bonus! ;)

Overall, I'd recommend both of these products. They're quick, easy, not too messy and do the job. They're not expensive either. I've also just discovered that as well as being available in your typical health and beauty stores, you can get them from Amazon:

Sex Toy Review: Nookii Digitalis Delite

2009-04-16T20:33:00.004+01:00

The Digitalis Delite is possibly just a posh way of saying "cool vibrating thing that goes on your finger." Because that sums it up in a sentence. It's a sleeve which goes on to your, or your partner's finger. There's a vibrating bullet secreted in a different pocket of the sleeve. You also have a corded remote, which is what you use to switch it on and off and adjust the settings, of which there are ten.

The sleeve is soft and has nodules. It feels quite nice against your lady parts, but I'd recommend you use lube to stop it dragging against your skin. The vibrations are pretty powerful, and it is actually quite quiet compared to many toys I've tested. It didn't get me off, but nevertheless it still felt good. I suspect that women which find it easy to climax will love this toy - they may even find the most powerful setting to be too much and want to turn it down.

It's a great toy for couples play, but would be even better if the remote was cordless. It's a long cord, but I could still see it getting in the way if a couple were trying to have intercourse whilst using the Digitalis against the woman's clitoris.

Overall, not a bad toy. I do think it's pricey for what it is. They'd maybe get away with charging that much if it was rechargeable or something, but given the toy is nothing out of the ordinary, I think their asking price is too much. It is waterproof, pretty quiet and the bullet is removable... so it's versatile and I would definitely say if you don't already have a toy of this ilk, you could do much worse.

Click here to buy it from Nookii.com, for a rather pricey £29.99. (Price correct as of writing this blog post)

The Reunion

2009-03-31T18:43:00.003+01:00

As she pushed open the door to the bar, her heart was racing. She knew he'd be there, waiting for her. It'd been months since they'd last seen one another and she marveled at the effect he always had on her, even before she'd laid eyes on him. Would he still be so devastatingly sexy? Of course he would. If anything, he got better with age.

There he was. Tucked into a quiet booth in the corner, his head was down as he studied the book in his hands. She took the opportunity to study him as she tried to calm herself down. No good appearing at the table all flustered - not a good look. His long fingers held the book gracefully, and she remembered how they felt caressing her skin. His long hair fell into his face, and she found herself thinking how it felt tickling her thighs when he went down on her...

She shook herself. Now, this would never do! She was meant to be calming herself down, so as to appear beside him cool and composed. At this rate she'd be stripping off and throwing herself at him. Smoothing down her already perfectly smooth hair and tugging down her jacket, she sauntered over to him.

He was so engrossed in his book that he didn't notice her until she was sliding in opposite him in the booth. Looking up, surprised, he broke into a huge grin when he realised it was her.

"Well, don't you just look good enough to eat." He said, surveying her intently, still grinning.

She felt the colour rising to her cheeks as she caught on to the double entendre. She was never sure if he said those things to intentionally embarrass her, or whether it was just an unfortunate turn of phrase.

Checking herself, she responded, "You look well."

He nodded, standing, and said "What would you like to drink?"

Ever the gentleman, she thought. After telling him what she wanted, she watched him walk to the bar, checking out his arse. Well, he was so blessed with good features that she just had to have a look! And, she had to admit, he did look good. He knew how to dress; pale jeans which encased his backside, showing it off to perfection, coupled with a plain white t-shirt which enhanced his naturally tanned skin and gave her a glimpse of the sexy tattoos adorning his arms. Well-built arms which were capable of pinning her down to a bed without much effort.

Oh dear, she was off again. This time, she didn't stop her thoughts from wandering. There wasn't much point. She knew where this evening would end up - the same place it ended up every time they saw one another. In bed. It was just the preamble that varied each time. Different bar, different town, different county. It didn't matter. All she knew for sure was that he'd have a swish hotel room booked somewhere nearby and when they'd both tired of the pretense, they'd head there together.

He came back, carrying two drinks and placed them down on the edge of the table, sliding hers towards her as he sat down. Then they began to chat, idly and about every day things at first. Then the talk turned more intimate. He'd asked if she was seeing anyone - which she wasn't - and if she'd been seeing anyone since the last time they met - which she hadn't.

"So I'm the last man that fucked you then?"

She looked around, startled, wondering if anyone had heard him and his blunt question. He never failed to surprise her. She felt her pussy moistening as she thought of her response. Words failed her. She nodded.

"Well, well," he uttered, lowering his voice this time, "Won't that pussy of yours be tight, wet and begging for my cock by the time I get you naked? I can hardly wait."

Again, she was speechless. She hated that about herself. Normally she was bright and articulate. But put her in front of him when he was talking dirty, deliberately trying to turn her on, and all she could do was blush and shrug. He, however, enjoyed it.

"Are you getting wet now?"

His foot found hers under the table, and he manoeuvred his legs so he had one either side of her left calf and began rubbing and squeezing it with his. Slowly, maddeningly. He knew she wanted him to touch her, but higher, more intimately, with his long fingered hands bringing her to an earth-shattering climax.

"Do you want me, sweetheart?"

She took a long swig from her drink, hoping the considerable alcohol content would give her the confidence she needed to play him at his own game. She swallowed, and brought the glass to her lips once more. She drained the glass quickly, and wriggled her legs so she was out of his grasp.

"Yes," she retorted, the sudden alcoholic buzz helping her find her voice, "I do. Now if you don't object, let's stop pissing around shall we, and go back to your hotel. I have something I'd like you to attend to."

Somewhat agog, he grabbed his own glass and took a couple of mouthfuls, then stood.

"As the lady wishes," he replied, "Wow, I like it when you're a bit forceful. I could get used to this."

And with that, they left the bar and hailed a taxi back to his hotel...

Product Review: Philips Satinelle Ice Epilator

2009-03-23T19:59:00.004Z

As someone who is a bit of a stickler for removing hairs, I've been using an epilator for a while. I hate the stubble that shaving leaves on your legs after just a day or so. Epilating is so much better as it lasts longer, and even when the hairs start to grow back, they're much softer and finer. All you have to do is epilate probably once a week or fortnight dependent on how smooth you want to be - and that's it. It's much less maintenance, you just have to be prepared for a little pain. But that gets easier and easier the more you do it, as you're removing less hairs at once. Plus, the Philips Satinelle Ice Epilator has made things even better!

This epilator is designed for sensitive skin. It's ultra gentle and gives you extra TLC by giving you the option to use the ice cooler, as well as the aloe vera sonic massage. It's curved to fit the shape of your body - which I found made it quicker to pick up the hairs, rather than having to keep going over the same piece of skin again and again. It's much quieter than my old epilator too, which resembled a lawnmower!

The epilator also comes with an attachment which is for your bikini line. I was feeling brave, so gave it a try - and it was nowhere near as bad as I expected. If you can use it on your legs, you'll be able to use it on your bikini line - much more effective than shaving, and without the unsightly lumps and bumps! Of course you may be a little red for a while, but just put plenty of cream on. Then when your skin gets used to regular epilation, it won't be so bad. And well, it's worth it for the smoothness!

Philips have thrown in a glove which helps exfoliate your skin before use, and made this model rechargeable! So you can use it either with or without the mains cords - which is fantastic - the last thing you want is a dead battery when you've only done one leg! I'd recommend you read the instructions regarding the battery though, they do recommend that the unit's battery is flat before you plug it in, to conserve the overall life of the battery.

Overall, I'm really, really impressed with this epilator. I was happy with the results on my legs and bikini line, and had no qualms about ditching my old epilator. This one is far superior, and at just over £40 (current price on Amazon as I write this) it's a fab price. You'll make your money back in the end, with the savings on razor blades and shaving foam!

If you haven't got an epilator at all, this is a fantastic first one, as it really does the job and minimises the pain. If you've already got one, I'd recommend an upgrade. It's that good.

Saving It For A Rainy Day...

2009-03-16T20:21:00.002Z

Clara woke up to the sound of rain lashing against the bedroom window in their holiday apartment. Groaning, she glanced across at her boyfriend, Ben. Despite the sudden change in weather it wasn’t cold, and the bedsheets were draped across his hips, leaving his tanned upper body on display. Clara let her eyes roam across Ben’s muscular body, smiling as she thought of the numerous times she’d had her hands all over it, and he hers.

They enjoyed an active and varied sex life, though on this holiday, the thin walls had prevented them from being too adventurous. But now an idea had popped into Clara’s head.

She slipped out of bed and across to the window. Peeking through the curtains she could see their small ground floor terrace was wet, little puddles collecting where the ground wasn’t quite even. Beyond the terrace, she could see the swimming pool. The lights dotted around meant it wasn’t pitch black and Clara could see there was nobody out there. She grinned, and stole back to the bed.

Soon Clara had awoken Ben and brought him up to speed on her plan. They dressed, left their apartment and headed for the pool. It was still raining heavily and by the time they got there, they were already soaked.

“What if we get caught?” Ben hissed.

“We won’t. It’s the middle of the night. And it’s raining. Who in their right mind would come out in this?”

Ben was about to point out that they were out in this, when Clara silenced him with a kiss. He could feel her taut body through her saturated clothes, and when she pulled away he saw her nipples were erect; hard, like little stones.

Clocking his gaze, Clara stripped off slowly, teasing him. Ben had already been nursing a semi, but the sight of his wet naked girlfriend had the blood rushing to his cock immediately. Clara’s long dark hair was plastered to her, and rivulets of water ran down her body, making Ben want to follow them with his tongue.

He made to step towards her, but Clara giggled and slipped away from him and headed for the steps leading into the pool.

As her lithe figure disappeared beneath the water, Ben undressed. He wondered if the water would be cold, but figured that by the time he got his hands on Clara, he wouldn’t care.

Ben quickly followed Clara. The pool was a little cold, but after a few seconds his body became accustomed to the temperature, and he swam towards his girlfriend, who was waiting at the other end of the pool, her elbows propped on the side.

The mixture of being naked in a public place, the rain splashing off the surface of the pool, and Clara’s soaking wet, luscious body was driving Ben wild. But he knew Clara was horny too, which was why she’d suggested this in the first place.

Clara grinned as Ben headed towards her. The look in his eyes spoke volumes. She knew she was going to have the fuck of her life in a few short minutes, and her pussy was wet and ready. Clara had always had fantasies of skinny dipping; and of having sex in the rain. Tonight she was going to fulfil them both, and the fact it was deliciously risky turned her on all the more. She parted her legs slightly in anticipation, enjoying the rush of cool water to her private parts.

Ben reached out for the side of the pool to steady himself as he reached Clara. His arms either side of Clara’s, their bodies met; so familiar, and yet so alien in these circumstances. They’d had sex in the shower before, but to be completely submersed in water, and to have it pelting down on their heads was a new experience. And one they both intended to enjoy.

Clara let go of the side of the pool and wrapped her arms and legs around Ben, who was still gripping the side of the pool. As he couldn’t then touch her without making them both sink, Clara took control and began kissing his neck whilst pressing her breasts against his chest, making his cock twitch and jump.

Desperate to feel it inside her, Clara manoeuvred back slightly, so she could angle the head of Ben’s hard-on ready to slide inside her slick wetness. The sensations were already amazing; the cold water, the rain pelting down on them and dripping off their bodies onto one another – Clara knew she would come in no time. She bore down, and Ben’s cock slipped inside her easily, causing them both to moan in ecstasy.

Ben’s fingers gripped the side of the pool tightly as Clara rode his cock. As he had no leverage with his feet he had to simply float there whilst Clara did all the work. Still, she didn’t seem to mind, and her cries told Ben her orgasm wasn’t far away. He bent his neck and kissed her deeply, his tongue exploring her mouth as his cock explored her cunt. Both were warm and wet, and turned him on no end.

Clara ground her crotch roughly into Ben’s, desperate for some extra friction against her clit. She was so close to coming, and she knew Ben would be too. Their lips were still mashed together, tongues playing in one another’s mouths, moans escaping from both. As Clara gyrated against Ben, she felt the familiar beginnings of her orgasm, and she bit Ben’s lip as she rode out the wave.

Pulse after pulse of Clara’s orgasm clenched Ben’s cock, and he let go. Orgasming loudly, he emptied his balls into his girlfriend.

Seconds later, they reluctantly parted and slumped against the side of the pool, heads resting on their arms and facing one another, grinning stupidly. Ben shivered involuntarily.

“Cold, sweetie?” said Clara, still grinning. “Come on, let’s go back to the room. I know a great way to warm you up.”

Sex Toy Review: Go Ringo Cock Ring

2009-03-09T20:40:00.002Z

The last vibrating cock ring we tried was a firm (ahem) favourite, so we were quite looking forward to giving the Nookii Go Ringo a whirl. Unfortunately it did not quite live up to expectations.

The cock ring is in attractive packaging and looks good quality. It even has some tips for use just in case you're not accustomed to these kind of things. The ring is stretchy, of course, to go around the penis, but unfortunately not stretchy enough to also go round the balls which was a disappointment to both of us. Regardless, we carried on and enjoyed the pleasant titillation of the vibrations. They weren't particularly strong, which was disappointing, but it still felt nice. The nodules weren't situated very well so I didn't get any sensation on my clit, just around the opening of my vagina where the vibrations came from the other half being inside.

Another down side was, despite the switch being fully 'ON' the toy started, well, stopping. One minute it would be happily buzzing away, and we'd be doing our thing, and the next minute it would stop. Then start again, then stop. It was almost as if the thing had a loose connection which disconnected every time we moved. Luckily we could laugh about it and it didn't really ruin the moment. After a while though, we popped the silly thing off and carried on doing the business.

Overall, not too impressed with Go Ringo. It's not very powerful and is pretty pricey, particularly since after 30 minutes the batteries will go and suddenly you're left with a standard cock ring. Let's just say I've had better, and it was much cheaper - The Screaming O Cock Ring.

Product Review: Philips Personal Grooming Set

2009-03-04T19:49:00.004Z

I get fed up with the unsexy lumps and bumps that come of shaving your bikini area, so when I was given the chance to try out this trimmer from Philips, I snatched their hand off!

The set is more than just a trimmer - it comes with six grooming attachments, allowing you to trim your bikini line, shave your legs and comb and trim your eyebrows. It's rechargeable, with the charge lasting up to one hour. It can also be used wet or dry - perfect for the shower as you can wash away the hairs you've removed and not worry about the mess!

It's very easy to use, just fiddle around with it and the attachments for a few minutes and you'll soon have the hang of it. One thing I'd like to point out though - it's definitely more for grooming your hair rather than removing it. If you're an all off/completely smooth kind of a girl, I'd suggest hair removal cream or the traditional razor, this set just doesn't give the same kind of effect which makes you feel like a sex goddess. So basically, this is a great product dependent on your exact needs.
