40 SEX TOYS THAT INSPIRE US

Guest written by Rain Andersen (@wearenotfriends_) a veteran sworker with eight years in adult entertainment and three years working for Lovers.

Have you heard the phrase, “Life begins at 40?" It means that you've still got new skills, experiences, and knowledge to gain, even after 40 years of living. Last year Lovers celebrated four decades in the sexual wellness industry. To commemorate this momentous occasion, we created four categories of toys that have defined our journey in the sexual wellness space and categorized them as innovators, cult favorites, classics, and trend setters. 

In this blog, we will be taking a look at the toys that have provided us pleasure over the last 40 years!

THE CLASSICS

We selected ten classic sex toys that have stood the test of time. Hello, Hitachi Magic Wand! These ten products are ranked for their quality and renown in the sexual wellness industry. Performing best-in-class, these three sex toys have garnered a celebrity status among their peers:

The Magic Wand ($79) 
This iconic microphone-shaped massager has a long and rich history in the sex toy industry. Available in corded and rechargeable designs, the Magic Wand is most recognized for its strength, power, and signature rumbly vibrations. Use this distinctive hand-held vibe for a full body massage that ends in an explosive orgasm.

Womanizer Premium 2.0 ($209)
Womanizer is only 8 years old, so how did it become a Lovers staple? The Womanizer Premium 2.0 uses gentle, air-pressure technology to provide 360 degrees of stimulation to the clitoris. It's moisture sensitive interface responds to the lightest touch, and triggers the same micro contractions that occur during a natural climax. What's more classic than that?

We-Vibe Moxie ($129)
The panty vibrator will never go out of style, and the We-Vibe Moxie checks all the boxes. If you're looking to explore this classic style of foreplay, then get yourself this Bluetooth compatible toy from We-Vibe. The We-Vibe Moxie allows you to interact with your loved ones from anywhere in the world, and stays securely in place with it's magnetic base.

THE INNOVATORS 

Let's be honest, sex toys have come a long way (and we're grateful for that)! These toys helped to shape the industry through their innovative technology, imagination, and commitment to helping folks experience pleasure in new ways. We've been around for a long time, and we love toys that change the way we think about pleasure!
Let's take a closer look at three of the most innovative sex toys in our inventory:

Lovers Joy Stick Thruster ($99)
The Lovers Joy Stick Thruster is one of the most unique vibrators in our private label collection. It's wide and flexible base provides stimulation to the clitoris or perineum, depending on the preference of the user. Did we mention it can be worn as an anal plug OR a thrusting rabbit? The Joy Stick Thruster over compensates in the best possible way, providing pleasure to all bodies, inside and out!

SVAKOM Alex Neo ($159)
We've stocked Bluetooth cock rings, anal plugs, and prostate massagers, but we've never had a Bluetooth toy that strokes. Let us introduce you to the Alex Neo... a wireless, thrusting, Bluetooth compatible masturbator. The Alex Neo is the Nesting Doll of sex toys; remove the lid and inner sleeve for a quick and easy clean up that is beginner friendly!

The Snail Vibe ($160)
For years, companies have tried to create a vibrator that can simultaneously stimulate the vagina and the clitoris. A universal solution to dual stimulation felt like a distant fantasy of ours. Now, we have the SnailVibe. The SnailVibe is the latest innovation in dual stimulation, designed to hit every touchpoint of the vulva! The rigid lower arm is wrapped in smooth and buttery silicone, for true-to-life strokes. Watch as the snails 'shell' uncoils, as you receive deeper penetration. It's ultra wide, silicone spiral is 2.5 centimeters long, to accommodate diverse and changing body types.
