It’s true — a nifty little plaything will definitely make your stressful Monday way more enjoyable. Whatever your needs and desires, here are the sex toys to make the day – and those that follow – a standout.
1/ Coco de Mer Roseravished Massage Candle, R620, Matildas
Flowers and candles are verging on boring when it comes to celebrating Valentine’s Day, but a candle that melts into a sensual massage oil? That’s something we can get on board with. Featuring shea butter and almond oil, this candle is scented with sandalwood and rose with notes of armoise, cardamon, cedarwood, patchouli, pepper, rosemary, geranium and vetiver. Light it up and glide it on.
2/ Lelo SONA Clitoral Massager, R1 984, PassionFruit.co.za
Using gentle sonic waves instead of conventional vibrations, the SONA is not your average clitoral stimulator. For starters, it doesn’t just stimulate the bits of you you can see – it stimulates the entire clitoris. It also features eight different vibrating options so you can pick the one that gets you off just the way you like it. Use it during foreplay with your partner, or ditch the partner and have all the fun on your own.
