Valentine’s Day

Valentine’s Day is often associated with love, flowers, and well… sex. Whether you’re with yourself, a monogamous partner, or multiple partners this rosy season, we’ve put together a list of some hot things you can do to spice things up.

In spite of its capitalist intentions, Valentine’s Day can be a timely excuse to show oneself or one’s partner a little special love and care.

Self Love

Let’s face it - we all get caught up in our endlessly busy day-to-day lives - not to mention the hell of a year we’ve had. If you’re stuck at home, don’t forget that you can be your own safest sexual partner who knows all of the right buttons to press. So whether or not you care about Valentine’s Day - take a day to care about yourself.

Take a Bath

Set aside some time to relax and treat yourself to some not-so-guilty pleasures. A bath is a great way to unwind without any distractions. Bring in a glass of wine or maybe a joint. Leave the phone outside, unless it’s to play some soothing music.

Share a Joint

If you haven’t done this before, start off with a small amount and work your way into it. Also, don’t do this if weed isn’t legal where you live.

With Your Partner

If you have someone to share a day with, consider yourself lucky! Valentine’s Day can be a good opportunity to slow down and show some appreciation for your loved one.

There are several ways you can show gratitude towards your partner without spending a dime. Whether their love language is acts of service, physical touch, or words of affirmation, everyone has ways of feeling loved and appreciated.

If you already know your partner’s love language, use that knowledge to make them feel especially appreciated (we recommend doing this any day of the year). If you don’t know your partner’s love language, spend some time getting to know your partner in a new way!

Massage Oils & Candles

If physical touch is more your speed, try your hand at giving a massage! It may seem daunting if you’ve never done it before - remember, communication is key. Ask your partner what feels good and do more of that. (Wait, are we still talking about a massage?) Whether or not you or your partner are feeling particularly sexy shouldn’t stop you from sharing in some sensual pleasure.

Writing

What about words of affirmation? Have you ever tried to write your partner a poem or a love letter? You don’t need to be Shakespeare to make your partner swoon. Write something personal and from the heart.

The Bedroom

Lest we forget, be sure to prioritize safety and communication in all of your sexual activities! Whether you want to try out some new toys, or just need to stock back up on your favorite lube, this is a good time to introduce some heat into your love life.

Sexts 💕

Send your partner a sexy or message or two. Make a sexy scavenger hunt. Try out some role playing.

Has there been some lingerie sitting in the back of your closet? Try it on and send your partner a pic.

A few hot sexts can definitely set the tone in anticipation for a fun night.

(A gentle reminder that sexts should NOT be sent willy-nilly. Please make sure your recipient is comfortable getting sexy content. Consent is cool! And essential.)

Blindfold 👀

Try using a blind fold for a new experience. It can be a thrilling encounter and your senses are sure to be heightened.

Butt plug

Feeling kinky? Been thinking of trying out anal sex but don’t know where to start? A plug is a good place to begin. Make sure to use plenty of lube!

Penis ring ☄️

This one is for the fellas. A penis ring can be a great addition to the bedroom. They are said to make men last longer, and make orgasms more intense. Try it out and see for yourself!

Vibrator 🌋

A vibrator is a staple of every bedroom. Your female partner (or you yourself as a clit-owning person) will definitely thank you for this one.
