Valentine’s Day is a wonderful opportunity to show the people you love just how much they mean to you. You might especially enjoy Valentine’s Day if one of your love languages is giving and/or receiving gifts! Gift-giving is more than just the monetary value behind the present; it’s more symbolic than that. In this way, gifts are visual symbols of love (or caring.) The intention behind the gift, and the deliberate process of thoughtful choosing and allocating, can be significant to the receiver. What better gift to give than a pleasure! It’s time to fill our cups, baby! Below is a guide for the best sex wellness gifts to give friends, partners, and loved ones.
Sex Boutique Gift Card
Spectrum Boutique is an inclusive and educational pleasure shop based online and in Detroit. Spectrum is geared towards all identities and avoids gendering their products, ensuring that everything in their store can be used by anybody! Their website is easy to navigate with a wide variety of toys, accessories, and educational books to promote healthy attitudes about sexuality. A gift card is an opportunity for the recipient to choose their own adventure. What’s not to love!
Vibrator
My favorite thing about Enby is how inclusive, climate-conscious, and community-focused they are. Finally, a sex toy shop that believes all bodies deserve pleasure! They also donate a portion of their profits to organizations that support Queer/Trans People of Color, which means buying from them is also uplifting historically marginalized communities. We love to see it! I’m obsessed with their astrology themed collections and the Sagittarius Season is especially speaking to me! This diverse and playful collection offers some exciting gift ideas for solo or partner play. My personal favorite is the Womanizer Duo Bordeaux vibrator — highly recommend it!
Massage Candle
Not all sex candles are created equal. This all-natural wax blend contains warm Linden Blossom, sweet Honey and Vanilla, and sensual Sandalwood for a subtle scent experience that doesn’t distract from the mood. Enjoy it solo or ahem, not solo by burning the candle until the wax pool reaches the outer edge of the vessel. Extinguish the flame and wait until the wax is cool enough to touch. Slowly pour onto skin, massage in, and enjoy yourself.
Condoms
Since we’re making pleasure a priority this holiday season, we might as well make safety one, too! This pandemic has taught us just how important it is to make health our number one priority – this also includes our sexual health! Valentine’s Day just got a bit naughtier. B Condoms is the only Black-owned condom company and its mission is to close the gap on health disparities by creating healthier attitudes around sex. Their condoms are odorless, vegan friendly, and all-natural. J’adore it! Show your penis-having partners you care about their pleasure and safety with B Condoms. Makes for a cheeky gift!!!
Dildo
Ardently is a Black-owned pleasure-centric sexual wellness company. They provide an approach that makes navigating identity, wellness, consent, and sexuality easy to understand. The Dalia G-Spot massager is a nominee for ‘Luxury Toy of the Year’ so you know it’s good! The dual end dildo maximizes the opportunity to achieve pleasure by reaching your G-Spot. It doubles as a tool for your Kegels exercises! Made with premium body-safe porcelain, this luxurious dildo is sure to help rediscover the art of masturbation.
CBD Oil
oHHo is a cannabis and botanicals wellness company dedicated to bringing you the best of the best high potency CBD and botanical products. Now that’s Plants with Benefits™. Their clean and sustainable products alleviate stress and bring on good vibes. This natural aphrodisiac is not only good for the mind but for the body, too! CBD is extremely beneficial in the bedroom with studies showing it can boost libido, aid erectile dysfunction, and help with poor lubrication. Enhanced sexual desire and more intense orgasms? I’ll take two!
Sex Kit
Woo More The Penthouse Suite Bundle sex kit is iconic and sure to please. This is the Rolls Royce of sex gifts. It comes with an organic lubricant, all-natural, after-play wipes, on-the-go single-use packets of their lubricant (that fits perfectly in your wallet or handbag!), and last but not least their signature vibrator I Cum First (the name says it all.) This one-stop-shop bundle has everything a pleasure activist could need and then some.
