Reviews; Lelo’s Ina 2

52.Ina 2This little guy is what I touched on in my previous review on the Soraya and is the new improved version of  Lelo‘s best selling rechargeable rabbit-style design. This little lovely comes in luscious purple, moss green, and a tasty yellowy orange. It has a velvety smooth silicone and toxin free plastic exterior ergonomically designed for your distinct and unique physical attributes. The INA™ 2 boasts 100% stronger vibrations from dual motors, that can oscillate if the setting is right, across eight different patterns, and yet again endless intensities. They’ve widened the stem and extended it for even deeper G-spot stimulation at 200cm, keeping the flexible finger hot on the job of clitoral stimulation with a stronger curve inward and down.They boast of it being waterproof, but I wouldn’t go so far as to say that especially for you heavy players in the shower, tub, or hell, jacuzzi! Given that the 4 button control area doesn’t appear to be water tight around their edges and the adaptor cover can rip off easily if your hard at it ;-). I would however say that is water resistant . Just saying. It is whisper quiet and also comes with the id pin, travel/storage pouch and country specific adaptor. There is a 2 hour usage time and a 90 day standby time. As with all LELO products, INA™ 2 arrives in a stylish gift box with a full 1-Year Warranty and 10-Year Quality Guarantee. Not bad huh?

 

Reviews; Lelo’s Soraya

1This little guy packs some serious punch! From the designers at Lelo this beautifully designed and lovely looking toy may be what you are looking for! Let’s start from the outside and work our way in. Soraya’s exterior is a combination covering of smooth velvety silicone and toxin free plastic available in vibrant pink, luscious purple, and for you die hard traditionalists, black!  It is a rechargeable pleasure toy and as such comes with a country-specific adaptor for easy and rapid charging with 4 hours of charge for your pleasure and a 90 day standby time. This baby is waterproof to accompany you into the shower or bath, and you’ll never have to worry about your favourite lube, lotion, or potion getting inside. It has an easy grip handle for full control and a 3 button interface for 8 different vibration patterns and endless intensities offered up through the dual action motors. One in the fixed full length for internal or external stimulation, and the flexible stimulator for clitoral sensation. It has an ABS core and delivers a whisper quiet ride. Provided is a satin storage pouch for those on the go and storage, an adaptor and INSIGNIA brooch for easy identification to the Lelo club! Did I mention a full 1-year warranty? Well there is, and I must say it is nice to see companies standing behind their products as they should, especially when it comes to items of a higher end product. The only downside I can see is the length at 220 cm which can be somewhat long especially if you are a petite little thing looking for quality. However in that case then I would recommend the Ina 2 which i’ll talk about in my next review. So plug it in, charge it up, and ride!!

As Seen In; Let’s Talk Safe Sex

Well it’s that time of year again, PRIDE, and I for one am looking forward to it big time! The people, the energy, the vibrancy, feeling, attitude, camaraderie, unconditional love and support! Need I say more? Oh yeah, the sex, lots and lots of sex, and more sex!

Celebrations like these generally warrant the abundance of love and PDA’s and not so public PDA’s. The closed door action, or in my case the open door action! Come on, I’m no angel and most of you know that from what you’ve read, seen, or taken part in with me and my gang. I love a good ol’ celebration as much as the next person and I get right down to it if given the chance! Go for it, call me the “ethical slut” I’ll gladly own that one.

We all get a little crazy during times like these and sometimes we find ourselves in situations where we are not as safe as we should. Yes I am guilty and felt just as equally terrible for not being as safe as I should have been, but I didn’t beat myself up over it. We all make mistakes, but it’s times like these that we should be just a wee bit (more…)

As Seen In; Sexual Shyness

Working as a sexual health awareness advocate has presented me with some interesting situations. Take for example the shyness exhibited by so many when it comes to sex. Hell, even in my younger years I was no stranger to it.

Remember buying your first “dirty” magazine? The questions about sex you want or wanted to ask? Who do you ask and are you comfortable asking that person, let alone even asking? What about your first venture into an adult store? Or making sure all the curtains are closed and the sound turned down while you trip on over to your favorite porn site for a little self pleasuring?

As Seen In; Lube

Velvet Steele by Kate McLaren

Velvet Steele by Kate McLaren

I just love it when I am doing trade shows and I ask, “what kind of lube are you looking for” or anything to do with lubricants and the guy pipes up and tells me that they don’t use lube cause he gets her wet all the time!

Say what? Shut the fuck up! You mean to tell me you truly think that you are the bomb and always get her hot and wet each time? You get her telling you the water is always warm so jump right in? Okaaay! (more…)

As Seen In; Sex, Sex, Sex!

Velvet Steele by Kate McLaren

Sex, sex, and more sex! Yes thatʼs whatʼs itʼs all about, that strange wonderful desire controlled by the not so elusive chemicals we call hormones. They dictate how we act, develop, desire, and for some control their every action and thoughts. Trust me, cause as some of you may know and for those that donʼt, hormones certainly have me by the short and curlyʼs! (more…)
