When Panache offered a Sports Bra for review, I was very excited. Unfortunately they didn’t have it is my size, I’m a very awkward 28C which not many stores stock. Plus, sport isn’t really my forte! I do however, know a very well bossomed woman who is a keep fitness fanatic who takes part in horse riding, running, and trains with a personal trainer; my mother. She also was in desperate need of a good sports bra before giving herself black eyes.

Panache Sport is designed to keep your breasts in good shape by reducing bounce. When your boobs move around, they stretch and stress the Cooper ligaments which can cause irreversible damage. It is available in sizes B-H cup and and comes in a variety of colors including black, white, grey, purple and navy. So you can definitely find one to match your work out wear!

The Panache Sport is much different from the type of strong tank top bra’s she normally has from running shops. This bra is, well, like a bra! It is molded and has separate cups to support each breast instead of squeezing them down. It is very good quality fabric  which is made of light weight micro-fibre wicks. They are designed to keep moisture away from the skin and also has mesh panels to keep the skin cool. Wahey, no more sweaty boobs! She was very excited that she had received the hot pink color.

The bra also has smooth cups which reduce friction and these are underwired. The lovely thing about this bra is that the wires are wrapped in silicone and sewn between the layers of fabric for comfort. This works brilliantly, no digging in and brilliant support.

The straps on the bra are strong and wide which work well to disperse pressure on the shoulders so they don’t dig in with the weight of your boobs. If you wear racer tops, the straps also clip together at the back to they won’t be seen underneath your work out clothes.

The bra covers the whole breast. So when you wear your work out vests over it a cheeky bit of colour pokes through, not bust. This bra wouldn’t work for a Pamela Anderson running down the beach look.

What amazed her is how comfortable this bra is. You simply forget you are wearing it. As your bust is not crushed it gives you a great shape in your work out clothes. Bonus!

This bra has been thoroughly tested. During a horse riding lesson which consisted of a lot of trotting and cantering her boobs moved no where. It was the most comfortable lessons she had ever had! So if you’re a horse rider, this bra is definitely for you.

When it came to personal training, she said it was very easy to forget that she was wearing a bra as she could simply concentrate on her technique. Nothing on the bra rubs or digs in whether stood working with weights of laying on the floor. No red shoulders from where the bra straps rub and no sweaty boobs.
During circuit training the bra was wonderful and comfortable. The fabric and bust separation helps stop you getting hot and sticky.
Cardio consisted of burpees, jumps, squats and star jumps. The bra managed to survive these and give good comfort and support – impressive as she is a 32F!
During jogging the bra gives good support, however once speeding up to a sprint there was a bit of bounce. Of course, trying to control those monstrosities in all situations is difficult! For smaller busts though this wouldn’t be an issue.

On the whole a great work out “all round”  bra. Thank you Panache!

This is a brilliant sports bra and now highly recommended by my Mother!

Silicone+ is a silicone based lubricant available from Give Pleasure Products, a British company, in their Give Lube range which also features a water based lubricant and flavored lubricants.

The Silicone+ lubricant has a sleek modern silver and black design. The bottle features the ingredients and information clearly. The tube is easy to squeeze the lubricant out and the flip lid is secure meaning no accidental drips. The bottle is wrapped in see through plastic which must be removed before opening. The non gender specific bottle can easily mingle in with your other bottles you have left out and does not look suspicious should you have guests.

Silicone+ is made from a special blend of three high quality, medical grade silicones in Germany to provide an amazing quality lubricant.

Give Lube Silicone+ is:

• Latex condom safe
• Dermatologically tested
• Free from preservatives
• Oil free and unscented
• CE marked medical lubricant

Quality?

The Silicone+ lubricant is safe for vaginal, anal and oral sex, masturbation and massage and can be used with latex condoms. The Silicone+ lubricant should not be used with silicone toys as it can ruin their finish. It is best used between partners or for masturbation.

Performance

Silicone+ has a thick smooth consistency and is clear in color. It has no smell or taste which makes it good for oral sex and provides a long lasting glide. As it is silicone based it can also be used in water without washing off immediately should you wish to use lubricant in the shower.

Fantastic tasting sweet lubricants of a great quality.

Give Pleasures have extended their range once again and introduced Give Lube Raspberry and Cherry Oral Pleasure Gels. Aimed at oral sex, these gels are perfect if you don’t like the taste of your partner or want to make oral sex even sweeter.

The Oral Pleasure Gels are packaged in the same bottle as the Premium Aqua Gel and Silicone+  in a 100ml tube with flip top lid to ensure no spills. Each tube has it’s own color. The Raspberry Kiss lubricant features a pink center circle with the lube tube writing and a pink kiss in the top left hand corner. The Cheeky Cherry lubricant has a reddish orange centre circle and an image of cherries on the bottle. The different colors and images makes it really easy to distinguish between which lubricant is when when distracted.

Both lubricants taste very sweet as you would expect and there is a lot of flavor you can taste. The Cheeky Cherry Lubricant tastes like the cherries you get in pick and mix, and the Raspberry Kiss lubricant, which is my personal favorite, like raspberry gums. They both taste amazing but if you are not a fan of sweet things may become quite sickly. The lubricants are also very moreish. I may have sat here licking it off my fingers for quite a while rather contently!

Oral Pleasure Gels are CE marked medical lubricants, paraben-free and are dermatologically tested. The lubricants contain glycerin, however they do have added Panthenol to help counteract bacteria.

The lubricants have a good consistency and are a water based lubricant so are suitable for use with latex condoms and sex toys including silicone toys. The Oral Pleasure Gels also work well for sex as they aren’t too sticky like some other oral sex lubricants are. As water based lubricants are re-activated with water these Oral Pleasure Gels last a long time as they do not get the chance to dry out much when mixed with saliva. A little of these goes a long way.

The Raspberry Kiss Oral Pleasure Gel seems more orange red in color and the Cheeky Cherry is more pink. Personally I would have swapped the colors around.

Overall they are great tasting Oral Pleasure Gels and of the usual fantastic quality known by Give Pleasure Products.

Raspberry Kiss: Glycerin, Aqua (Water), Hydroxypropyl Guar, Propylene Glycol, Panthenol, Sodium Saacharin, Citric acid, Aroma (Flavor) CI14700 (FD & C RED no. 4)
Cheeky Cherry: Glycerin, Aqua (Water), Hydroxypropyl Guar, Propylene Glycol, Panthenol, Sodium Sacharin, Citric Acid, Aroma (Flavor), CI4720 (FD & C RED No. 4)

A must have for those into sensual play, the Wartenberg Wheel creates a fantastic feeling when against the skin and can be adapted to as much or little pressure as you wish.

Wartenberg Wheels are mostly used in medical play and for sensation play. They are also known as pinwheels, but named Wartenberg after Dr Robert Wartenberg who designed it originally for testing nerves.

The packaging for this toy is cheap. A plastic sleeve which is black on one side and clear the other so you can view the toy. It isn’t well made and splits easily. This toy requires a solid storage or at least a different storage place so you don’t damage your other toys.

This toy does not come with any information, direction or company name of where it was made.

Wartenberg Wheel

The Wartenberg Wheel has twenty two sharp points on the wheel which spins on an axis and a long handle with three indents for grip. It is an extremely simple design but very effective. It is around 7″ in length

The first Wartenberg Wheel I received broke, the pin which holds the wheel on came out and would not secure back in place. Uberkinky were great and sent out a replacement straight away as well as checking any other stock for this issue and making the suppliers aware. The replacement Wartenberg Wheel arrived quickly and works with no issues.

I loved it!

The feeling of this toy is addictive. Even whilst writing this I can’t help but pick it up and run it over my skin. The weight of the toy applies the perfect pressure requiring little effort and the wheel spins easily. If I push harder with the toy I create a line of red dots across my skin however if I am more gentle it will not mark at all. If I were to push hard enough I’m sure I would be able to break the skin and draw blood. It is very lightweight

As this toy is stainless steel it is fully sterilizable in boiling water so can be shared with partners. You can also clean it with rubbing alcohol, 90% water and 10% bleach, or just soap and water. Dry thoroughly before storing to ensure the toy does not rust.

What else

Another bonus of the stainless steel is that you can use it for temperature play also. Run it under warm water to heat it up or pop it in the fridge to cool it. It’s also great when paired with a feather with the soft and sharp sensations causing mayhem.

This toy is versatile and great for teasing or if you wish to, inflicting pain. A definite must have for your toy box. Suitable for those interested in expanding their sensual play and adding a new dimension or just curious to medical play.

If you’re feeling more adventurous you could try the triple or five head Wartenberg Wheels.

The fabulous UberKinky have sent me the Fetish Fantasy Shock Therapy Kit!

The products on their site are things that I would never normally try, so I love that they will push my boundaries. I’ve never even thought about e-stimulation before, so this was new to me!

The Shock Therapy Kit is a Pipedream product, and comes in a sturdy box featuring a woman using the kit. Needless to say, she definitely seems to be enjoying it! I had visions of me screaming rather than moaning as I electrocuted myself, but look, I’m still alive! Although L’s flatmates probably thought he was murdering me.

Fetish Fantasy Shock Therapy Kit

The Kit contains a digital power control unit, or a remote to you and me, 4 adhesive pads, a bi-polar lead wire, instruction manual and a free mask.

Batteries

The remote only takes 2 AAA batteries, this put me at ease. If it only takes small batteries, it can’t hurt that much right?

How it works

The adhesive pads have a press stud like connection to the leads, and then it simply connects into the remote. The leads are long enough to allow you to not get tangled up and for your partner to control the remote if wanted.
The pads are extremely sticky! They are certainly not going to fall off whilst you are using them. You have to be careful not to touch them with your fingertips which can be quite tricky. They come with a piece of clear plastic over them to keep them sticky – so don’t lose these! I’m not sure how long the pads will last, I would say about 10 uses before you need some more as the stickiness seems to stick everywhere. You can purchase them separately for when they need replacing.

Instructions

The instructions are quite clear, and show the different settings. What it doesn’t mention though is that there’s a body which shows up on the screen. If you skip the modes, it will highlight different body parts which I think has preset combinations to work best for the muscles. There are up to 100 stimulation combinations – so if I try to explain them all to you I could be here a while!
Each mode also has a timer, so after around 10 or 15 minutes, it will shut off.
The free mask was made of a cheap material, but hey, it was free! It did it’s job.

Firstly I tried the Shock Therapy on my back – I used the kneading mode:

‘Gradually releases neural or muscular pain by providing deep pressure-point stimulation’

I trusted L to place them on my back as a lay down expecting a lovely massage. Oh how wrong I was. When it says deep, it means it! For two AAA batteries, this has a heck of a lot of power! On lower settings it’s quite nice, but higher settings were immense. I think one thing the instruction manual is missing is directions on where to place the pads. If they were actually on the right points it would have been much nicer I’m sure!

I then decided to try them on my breasts with the tap setting:

‘Promotes blood circulation with a tapping, throbbing stimulation pattern’

I’m sure I read somewhere that electro-stimulation heightens collagen production and increases elasticity of breast tissues, worth a try right? I can’t really say it did much for my boobs in such a short time, apart from making them dance about everywhere, but it was quite relaxing.

I have just placed it on my back on modulation mode:

‘Releases fatigue and relaxes muscles by providing combination of different speeds and intensities’

I’m not sure about relaxing muscles, it’s making me shrug every time it pulses!

Summary

I honestly didn’t think this therapy would be any good, but if you know where to put the pads and easily work out the settings it’s great. It’s not just for those who like to inflict pain on others, it’s also great for muscle tensions or if you’ve had a hard gym work out.

I do like that you can put the 4 pads where ever you like on the body so they don’t all have to be in one place.

It is great for beginners as you can control the intensity and speed yourself very easily and when you change the treatment it will go back to the lowest settings. The LCD display makes it very easy to understand the different settings as you can watch the speed/intensity/mode and understand which buttons are affecting what.

I would definitely recommend this to those interested in e-stimulation – or if you just want a good massage!

Another product to check out if you’re into this sort of thing is the Fetish Fantasy Bed Binding Restraint Kit.

Squeezer Teaser Nipple Clamps are also known as Japanese Clovers, or Butterfly Clamps.

They come in plastic pockets attached to cardboard. A disappointment compared to a lovely box. The cardboard features a porn star like lady, and look like they belong amongst the chocolate boobs and willy warmers. On the back of the cardboard it says they are an ‘adult novelty’, which I would disagree with. Novelties to me mean something just for fun, these are definitely toys!

Nipple Clamps

First try of nipple clamps

I must admit, they look a bit scary! In comparison to all the other Nipple Play toys, I thought they looked the tamest. However, I could be wrong! They are a lot bigger than I expected them to be measuring at 3.5 inches in length and 1.5 inches width. This made me fear that they would be bigger than my boobs!

I’ve never had any toys for my nipples before. I tested these out on my finger first. For a start they didn’t hurt too much, then after a while, ouch! My nipples were going to hurt much more then my finger, so I upped the stakes. My ears. I left them on for a little while, but then my ear started to go numb! They are spring loaded and definitely have a good grip. Thankfully they are easy to get off with a quick release.

What they’re like

They aren’t too heavy but when attached to nipples they are definitely heavy enough. It is not specified which metal they are made of, but the tips are rubber. If you are allergic to any metals, it is best off you find some other nipple play toys to avoid an allergic reaction.

The only instruction the packaging gives is ‘Simply pinch the clasps open and release on your nipples.’ Don’t listen to this, there is a little bit more to it than that. I discovered, when aroused, they really don’t hurt as much as you would think. You can’t just place them on your nipples, you do have to be aroused. If you like having your nipples played with during sex, you should definitely give these a go. You can attach weights to the cords, I am too much of a wimp to even attempt that, but pulling on the cords created enough pain required. It was also suggested to me to put the cords in my mouth and pull upwards. The rubber tips have a criss cross pattern, which soon becomes imprinted on whichever part of your body you have placed the Nipple Clamps. If your nipples begin to feel numb, or the colour changes, then it’s time to remove the clamps before you damage the sensitive skin. Always be careful when placing and removing the clamps.

These clamps can also be used on the testicles, clitoris or labia. I must admit, I haven’t tried them there. I’m building up to it!

The only thing I didn’t like about these clamps is the nylon string for the weights, it does look a bit tacky, however is easy to replace with some ribbon. The packaging is forgivable.

Wrap up

Great next step for those who love nipple play. Can have weights added for those who are more daring! Packaging and cords look tacky, but can be exchanged for a box and some ribbon easily. Cheap, but does the job!

Overall a well thought out versatile piece of kit which every bed should have! Suitable for those without a headboard, secure, safe, and a lot of fun.

Anticipation

I have been wanting an under bed restraint system for a long time, I love being tied up myself, and tying up others. The furry handcuffs just weren’t cutting it anymore. Plus there’s not always anywhere to handcuff someone too! The bonus of this being an under bed kit is that you don’t need bed posts or even a headboard. It will fit queen or king size beds. It could possible even work on a sofa.

The irony of now being in possession of one is that I have no one to restraint!

Fetish Fantasy Bed Bindings Under Bed Restraints Kit

The Fantasy Fetish Bed Bindings Restraint Kit arrived safely and discretely from Uberkinky.

Packaging

The kit is supplied in a box featuring a woman using the system, with a rather disgruntled look on her face. There’s an illustration on the back which shows how the restraints are set up which is the only instruction given. It’s rather simple really. Out of the box the kit is in a plastic bag.

You wouldn’t really need the box for storage, as you could easily keep it on the bed and have the cuffs unattached so it isn’t obvious. It is also easy to fold for transport or to put in a draw if you wish. The straps are all neatly tied with elastic bands.

Installation

Trying to get the kit under the bed may be a two person job! I have an image in my head of the mattress falling on me as I attempt to lay it out. You can also lay the restraints in a ‘H’ shape so that the cuffs are along the side of the bed instead of top/bottom, or mix and match!

The straps are made from nylon webbing with plastic adjusters. To change the harness to the right size, just pull or release the adjusters. Just ensure you change the wrist/ankle straps to the same size. Having arms waving around at different lengths or one leg stretched too far isn’t much fun. Cuff up your partner the pull the adjuster straps to their preferred tautness. It is easy to tighten or loosen the straps with one move.

As the restraints are adjustable, you’re not limited to having your body completely strapped up, you can loosen the restraints to allow for some movement. Perhaps so that something is just teasingly out of reach!

Security of the device

The cuffs are simply secured using velcro. The velcro may hang over the cuff if you have slim wrists, you can always trim this down to size though if you wish. I would have preferred if they folded back through a metal hoop to make them easier to secure however this isn’t really a big issue. The inside of the cuff is soft so it won’t hurt your wrists/ankles in any way even when pressure or struggle is applied.

Summary

I love that there is a push fastener for fast release of the cuff should you need it. You can also attach the cuffs together to make them into handcuffs, or even use it for a hogtie. This also means that you can change the cuffs to any which you would prefer.

You can lay on the bed face up, so that you are spread open for your partner, or face down which work work well as a restraint for being spanked.

Overall a well thought out versatile piece of kit which every bed should have!
