Position of the Week: The Starfish
When I think about vibrators, I realise that although they're really adaptable, they seem to be commonly marketed towards women.
According to condom pioneers Durex, the message is simple: condoms are the only form of protection that can help stop the transmission of STIs and prevent pregnancy. And we happen to agree with them.
In this day and age, with so many different colours, textures and varieties of condoms available, there is no excuse for not protecting yourself and your lover from infection and unplanned pregnancy.
This guide will explain exactly why condoms are so important, how to use them and how to choose the right style of condom to suit your needs.

Lovehoney Community member Shadow Collector is one very lucky lady. Not only did she receive a Secret Wishlist Present from an anonymous forum friend, but we've also chosen the review she wrote of it as our Review of the Month. The prize? £100 to spend at Lovehoney!
We loved her in-depth review of the Icicles No 24 Tentacle Glass Dildo. She even pointed out features we hadn't noticed, like the perineum stimulation offered by the textured nubs:
"The raised glass nodules provide the kind of feelings that, previous to this toy, I only have imagined existed. There is nothing that can compare to the cool, firm feel of glass. Furthermore, the handle’s shaped so that with every thrust it’ll also tickle the anus."
"To the amazing person who blessed me with the Icicles No. 24, thank you. You've changed my outlook on sex toys for the better, and it was already pretty darn positive. I love this piece and any texture aficionados will love it as well."

What is a condom? And why are they so popular for ensuring safe sex?
Well, firstly, barrier methods of contraception (which is what a condom is) are the only type of contraception that protects you and your partner from STI's as well as unwanted pregnancy.
When used correctly, they offer an astonishing 98% success rate, but in order to be properly protected, you need to know what you're doing.
In this weeks video, Jess and Sammi give you the lowdown on latex (and non-latex) love-gloves, condom-friendly lubes and everything else you need to know before putting one on.
Come back next week for part 2, when we show you exactly how to put a condom on (properly!)
Dildos eh? For many they’re the go-to toy of choice for an amazing orgasm.
For others, they’re a mysterious unicorn whose powers have not yet been revealed.
You know lots of them look like real dongs, you know some of them don’t. You know they go inside you… somewhere. But how far does your knowledge go?
From what they’re good for to what they’ll do to your vagina, we respond to most commonly asked dildo queries found in the depths of our forum.
Hold on to your seats, hats, horses, and sex cushions: we're penetrating the world of dildos.
A typical day in the life at Lovehoney can often lead to unusual and unusually entertaining conversations and to equally unusual parts of the Internet. Currently we're stroking our chins over how best to make fake vaginas and marvelling at the ingenuity displayed by people who have had similar thoughts.
The classic site Home Made Sex Toys has a great article on how to make a Fleshlight style masturbator, which is quite possibly the best use of an empty Pringles tube we've ever seen.
"When stored with the lid on, the homemade flashlight can be conveniently camouflaged as an innocent can of potato chips," says the site. Yes, camouflaged right up to the moment that your mum comes round and reaches for the pre-dinner nibbles…
Over at Steady Health there's a fantastic thread which details how to turn a towel and a rubber glove into an uncannily realistic fake vagina. It does sound fantastically complicated though. I know I'm biased, but I would suggest that treating yourself to a male sex toy from Lovehoney is a lot less hassle (and, dare I say it, a lot more fun).
But it's great to see someone pitch in with some great, succinct advice: "Bubble wrap and ice pack quite good"
If 'beautiful' is the last word that springs to mind when you think about your sex toy collection, then you probably don't own a glass dildo yet.
Lovehoney has a wide range of glass toys, with a variety of textures and shapes, from glistening beaded dildos to handblown butt plugs.
So no matter what your preferences are and what body parts you have, you'll find a gorgeous glass object to fulfil your desires and add new sensations to foreplay, sex and solo fun.
Whether you're buying for yourself or a lover, shopping for bras can definitely be confusing. Underwired, non-underwired, cupless, peek-a-boo… What does it all mean?
Figuring out the correct band size and cup is the first step to success, but choosing a style that suits you or your partner is also essential. Just like how not everyone would choose skinny jeans over bootcut, the coverage, cup style and cut make a huge difference to how you feel about your new bra.
It's also important to keep your bust size in mind while choosing lingerie. Some styles look wonderful on women with cup sizes of A - C, while other cuts are more flattering on a larger bust. Below, we explain the most popular bra styles, and explain what body shape they're best for.

A question we get asked a LOT at Lovehoney is "how can I make my penis bigger?"
Now, we like to remind people that bigger doesn't necessarily mean better, and it's often better to learn some tips and tricks to use what nature gave you.
There's a lot of truth to the old saying "it's not the size, but what you do with it that counts".
But for those penis-owning people out there who want to boost the size of their boner, there are several ways of doing so, for both short and long term gains.
If you hunt around the internet (or have a peep in your junk emails, for that matter!) you'll trip over dozens of ways to increase the size of your penis.
However not all of these methods are particularly safe or reliable (bee stings anyone?!) and some can even lead to shrinkage later in life, so it's really important you do your research and choose a safe way to magnify your meat flute.
In this weeks video guide, Jess and Annabelle tell you 4 sure-fire ways to do exactly that!
