The Beginner's Guide to Gifting a Sex Toy

Recently I had a friend tell me she'd never used a sex toy and wouldn't know where to start in looking for one. It's not the first time someone has said this to me, but I was surprised by her; she's a sexually adventurous gal in a long-term relationship and I've known her forever. So of course my first reaction was to grab my phone, get on our website, and get her the perfect vibe. But then I realised, as a complete novice, she didn't know anything about vibrators, or lubes, or any other offerings for partner play or her own self-pleasure. And I had a brilliant idea, if I do say so myself: sexual favours - as in adult toy gift bags! Check out my top picks for sexual favours, for yourself if you're a sex toy novice - or create a few, if you have friends like mine who don't know where to begin.

Shop JOUJOU: Happy Rabbit G-Spot Rabbit Vibrator

What's the first thing anyone thinks of when it comes to sex toys? I'd bet money you pictured a vibrator when you started thinking about what would go in an adult gift bag. But there are so many options it can be overwhelming, and that's exactly why many women don't even have one or at least don't have the right one. First there's a fun classic, perfect for a small gift bag - the lipstick vibe. This is a great first toy, and despite being a powerful vibe, it's also a fun gag gift. Every woman carries a lipstick, and how shocked would you be to open it up and find out it was something much more personal? Suddenly you're wondering how many lipsticks you've seen casually lying about might have been for another function entirely...

LELO Mia 3 Lipstick-Style Vibrator

LELO makes the Mia 3, and in my opinion, it's the best of many options in this category of vibes. A strong vibe with six speeds, it’s so simple and versatile, you can bring it anywhere without raising an eyebrow. It will be your best commute and travel buddy!

But maybe you want a serious vibe, a grown-up toy that looks like what is. Every woman loves a rabbit!

Happy Rabbit G-Spot Rabbit Vibrator

If you’re looking for something more sophisticated, the Happy Rabbit G-Spot Rabbit Vibrator is an excellent choice for both newcomers and seasoned users. This stylish vibrator features a curved shaft designed specifically for G-spot stimulation and soft, fluttering ears for clitoral pleasure. With multiple vibration settings and a user-friendly design, it’s perfect for exploring new sensations and ensuring memorable experiences.

LELO Ida Wave Dual Stimulation Massager

For couples seeking shared enjoyment, the LELO Ida Wave is a remote-controlled couples massager that offers a range of patterns, ensuring satisfaction for both partners.

How about anal play? Perhaps intimidating for someone not accustomed to sex toys, let's start mild!

Lovense HUSH 2 Vibrating Butt Plug

The Lovense HUSH 2 Vibrating Butt Plug is a fantastic option for beginners. Designed for comfort and pleasure, this vibrating butt plug offers adjustable settings that can be controlled via an app, allowing for exciting solo play or intimate experiences with a partner. Its sleek design makes it easy to insert and comfortable to wear, providing a thrilling experience for both new and seasoned users.

For me, who would have thought eggs actually make excellent sex toys?

Tenga Egg Hard Boiled

Tenga has created a line of eggs, each with unique interiors to deliver various sensations and pleasures. You might be surprised to learn that eggs can also serve as fantastic sex toys! The Tenga Egg Hard Boiled is designed for men, but it's also a fun and unique option for women to explore. Each egg features a different texture, providing a variety of sensations for an exciting experience. They are easy to use, disposable, and perfect for quick pleasure without hassle.

Especially for beginners, don't forget the extras like lube, cleaner, and condoms! LELO has highly innovated condoms, designed to be more durable, thinner, and anti-slippage.

LELO HEX Condoms

HEX is named after its unique hexagon design that allows extra grip and more sensation for the man. It is one of the thinnest condoms on the market and has six flex points for increased pleasure.

Wicked Aqua Sensitive Hypoallergenic Lube

For lubrication, Wicked Aqua Sensitive Hypoallergenic Lube is an excellent choice, offering a smooth, long-lasting glide that’s gentle on the skin. It’s perfect for enhancing comfort and protecting against friction, making every experience more enjoyable.

LELO Antibacterial Cleaning Spray

After use, keep your toys in top condition with LELO Antibacterial Cleaning Spray—just spray and wipe for easy maintenance, ensuring your toys remain safe and hygienic. Spray them down and wipe with a clean rag, then rinse with water and air dry. It will even save you money if the toy had a silicone lube on it, as less product is needed than other same priced cleaners.

I created a gift bag for a friend who fessed up she had no clue where to begin with sex toys. A punny play on words turned into a full shopping cart and big ideas. You can make sexual favours for a friend or partner on any special occasion or just because. Personalise for each person's interests and the occasion; create a gift set for the ultimate intro experience!
