Notes from Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer)

Notes from Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer)

Go smaller than your ego wants, warm it up in your hands and use plenty of water-based lube. You can size up next time. Solo, stick it to the shower wall or take your time on your back with a lot of lube. Both are great.

Our favorite to learn on is Sliquid H2O. It's thin, silky and totally unscented, and it plays nicely with every silicone toy in your drawer.
