Tease by Lovehoney Soft Bondage Kit (3 Piece)

I got this to introduce some light teasing with my partner and it has been very sensual.

The cuff wrap and the blindfold feel silky and smooth against the skin and are very comfortable. The feather tickler is great to touch when used and is very good quality. I was apprehensive to begin with as I thought the feathers may fall out easily, but not a very good quality tickler.

Overall, this set provides a sensual delicate introduction to teasing enjoyable for both partners. I'm not that confident in dominating, but my partner enjoys being dominated every now and then and this made me feel really comfortable to begin dominating.

Bondage, what is it? Well, when typed into google the first thing to come up was 'the state of being bound by or subjected to some external power or control. 'Scary right? Well, if you're interested in experimenting, wish to add a little 'bondage' to your relationship, without your SO running for hills, then look no further.

We were lucky enough to receive this set free when purchasing another item. Thanks Lovehoney. The set includes a feather tickler, satin wrist cuffs and a satin blindfold, all we needed to indulge in some sensual exploration, aka bondage.

The Lovehoney tease soft bondage kit arrived in the classic, no-frills Lovehoney packaging, a clear cellophane packet. Each item has a cardboard tag with hints and tips, nice touch.

Bound me:

The wrist restraints are essentially a long piece of satin material. They work perfectly, offering a 'restraint' without the hassle of locks, not something we are into personally. To be honest it scares the hell out of me. These, however, very much appeal. They are not only aesthetically pleasing. They are also comfortable to wear and don't leave any visible marks on the skin.

Blind me:

Okay, so if you're not interested in a 'sleep mask' that's usually referred to as a blindfold, you'll be pleased to know Lovehoney's done it again. This is a blindfold. Made from a beautiful satin material, it not only looks good, it feels good too. Unlike others, it has hidden structure which is easy to pose around individual facial features, enabling a contoured fit. (No peaking.)

Tease me:

Last but not least, the feather tickler. Oh the feather tickler, It's delicate, it's delightful, it's divine. I absolutely love it. Please do NOT be fooled by its diminutive size. The mass of fluffy feathers will drive your lover crazy with delight,and they'll long for it to stroke over again and again. Only once you've experienced the fullness and fluffiness plump will you discover just why. The round handle makes it very comfortable to hold. And as it's petite it's perfect for travel.

Not every couple looking to explore sensual exploration is rough and ready, or in fact ever wants to be, and I'm glad Lovehoney has recognised this niche in the market and produced this set. It couldn't be more perfect for couples like us looking to explore into soft bondage and sensual play. We have certainly enjoyed using this set.

I received this kit for free when I ordered a toy from the desire range – thanks Lovehoney! We enjoyed trying it out and think it would be a good starter kit for bondage beginners.

Blindfold:

I find that the problem with a lot of blindfolds is that it’s very easy to peek out the sides or the bottom. This blindfold is made from a stiffer material at the part that covers your eyes and had some wiring in it, so it’s very easy to mould it to the contours of your face to make sure that you definitely can't peek.

However, if you’re new to using blindfolds and would rather be able to see out the bottom a little bit, you can adjust it to make that possible too. It’s very versatile and I think it’s suitable for both beginners and those with a lot of experience.

I thought the underwiring might mean that you’d have to compromise on comfort, but it’s actually very comfortable to wear. The material is very smooth and feels nice against your skin. The parts that you tie are made of silky satin which feels lovely, but you have to be careful when tying it to make sure that it doesn’t unravel easily.

Tickler:

This ticker is made of lots of small fine feathers and it feels incredibly full, soft and fluffy. It's tiny, but don't let that fool you - it's still very effective. It's so relaxing and you can create different sensations by switching between long sweeping strokes, swirling it over the skin and varying the pressure. When brushed over you quickly, it feels like a gentle breeze blowing over your skin.

It feels lovely and soft and it never gives that horrible itchy feeling even if you stroke the skin very lightly. If you get your partner to wear the blindfold and then use this it's guaranteed to heighten their nerve endings.

I love the little handle as it makes it look like a luxury item. Even though it's very small, my partner (who has big hands) had no trouble using it. It feels solid, and the clear plastic combined with the metal looks classy and high-end and makes the gorgeous fluffy feathers stand out. It looks luxurious and I think the handle looks quite similar to the Lelo Tantra tickler.

It’s so petite and cute that I don’t think anyone could be intimidated by this, so I think it would be perfect for people who are new to using toys and props. It’s also the perfect size if you don’t have much storage space or privacy (I’ve noticed that some other ticklers have quite long handles and would be difficult to hide) and it’s perfect if you want a treat to take with you on your travels.

Silky handcuffs:

I think this type of restraint is perfect for those who have never tried bondage before and are looking for something quite vanilla. The material feels amazing, it’s so silky and smooth and it feels lovely against your skin.

I think it looks much less intimidating than leather look restraints or metal handcuffs, and you don’t have to worry about losing a key. It’s very easy to use, as you just put the person's wrists above the loop at the centre and then feed each end of the ribbon through the loop, pull through and tie. Alternatively, you can just wrap it round and tie it without using the loop.

Overall:

The items in the kit are all very good quality and we really enjoyed using them. I don’t think it would be suitable for those who are more experienced/advanced in bondage, as you mind find the items in this kit a bit too tame, but it’s brilliant for beginners. I’d highly recommend it to those who are considering trying a little light bondage.
