Buying a toy for the first time can be a daunting experience. Looking at 12 inch dildos and weighted love eggs when you thought eggs were only meant for a frying pan can be a lot for someone to take in. We all have different preferences when it comes to our bodies, so it’s best to think about what sorts of things get you going before you buy that bedroom bff. Not sure where to start? Don’t worry, TNLC is here to hold your hand through the process…

It’s not a negative thing to own a sex toy…

I guarantee you more people have them hidden away in their draws than you think. Especially when you are in a relationship it can be quite daunting suggesting to your partner to bring toys into the bedroom. It’s important to understand that it’s not a negative thing, it’s just another exciting thing to add into the mix!

Understanding what you want…

If you are a couple it might be easier to go shopping together to see what you are working with. There is a common misconception that toys are always used for penetration when that’s far from the truth. Toy’s can be used to help you ease yourself into sex if you have been struggling. There are many different toys for beginners for you to try out to see what you like.

You don’t just have to buy a vibrator…

There is so much out there like clitoral suction, love eggs, dildos and so much more. Your classic bullet vibrator doesn’t work for everyone. Remember, no two vulvas are the same so what works for one, might not work for another. 

Lube up!

It can be daunting using a toy for the first time, feeling the new sensations that come with it. Lube up if you aren’t feeling confident as this will make it more comfortable and gentle on you. Lube also helps if people suffer from dryness. Sex is about being as comfortable as you can, to make sure you maximise your self pleasure!
