Velv'Or Aid Be Harder Penis Erection Cream 45ml

This is an interesting idea: plenty of men struggle to maintain an erection at times, and it's nice to see a product that uses the power of nature to make a difference.

The tube is very plain - it's not subtle, as it says precisely what it is on it, but it's not sleazy or tacky in anyway, as some other products can be. It comes as it is - no packaging - so a bit tick on environmental credentials too! It's also hygiene sealed over the product itself.

I personally prefer tubes rather than bottles, as I find a flip top lid easier to manipulate if I'm only using one hand, and there's no danger of knocking it over and wasting product either. It's small enough to go in your plastic bag if you're flying with hand luggage only, and the lid is really secure- I've previously had a freak lube accident, so this is something I also rate highly!

But does it work? Well, you only need a tiny amount to cover the whole penis - it spreads easily, and seems to last forever too: we only ever had to apply at the start of a session, and it seemed to be effective throughout. So this is really cost-effective - it might seem pricey initially, but a tube will last for ages. However - Lovehoney tell you to be sure to do a sensitivity test before using, on the inside of your arm. Please don't think you can skip this- it's a very active product, and for people with sensitive skin, it could be just too much. It's really not sexy to dive off the bed to plunge your penis into the freezer...

I can't quite put my finger on what the scent is: it's not unpleasant, but sort of spicy and minty, maybe. It's not at all overpowering or fake, but it is there, and the scent is quite enduring. Not having a penis of my own, I've relied on my partner for a description of how it actually feels: and apparently, it's sort of warming, then tingling, then a kind of warm, tight feeling. In the beginning, he says, you don't really feel anything, then it starts to warm up in a good way (like cinnamon chewing gum, not like Deep Heat!) and then it starts feeling really stimulated from the inside and tingly, before just feeling "tight". On further investigation, this apparently means that it's kind of like a really, really good hard on. (He really needs to get his own Lovehoney account - I find it almost impossible to translate from ManSpeak to English!)

It starts to work really quickly, though to the naked eye, it doesn't really seem like anything's happening. However, this is deceptive: even to a hand, the whole erection just feels more solid, somehow, and if you're giving oral sex, it feels very hard. If you're worried about a taste - don't be: I didn't really notice any taste at all, but I did enjoy the feeling of a harder-than-usual hard-on. Where it really comes into its own, though, is penetrative sex - oh my goodness, you can feel the difference! I don't mean the various "warming, tingling, tightening" things, either (I didn't feel any sensations from using this product that weren't connected with hardening!) - it almost makes your partner feel bigger, because the cock becomes *so* hard and solid. Absolutely amazing!

So- in answer to my question a few paragraphs above: yes, it definitely works! It also keeps working - so if your partner's orgasmed once, after he's relaxed and built up his strength again, it still seems to be active. We tried it over several nights, and I can also confirm that it is effective if alcohol has been consumed - it won't totally blow Brewer's Droop out of the water, but it's a definite improvement on the alternative.

Bottom Line: if you or your partner have ever wished to be harder for longer, this is your product. Buy it now. If your partner regularly overindulges, leaving you disappointed and reaching for your magic wand, buy two tubes.

I remain unconvinced about all of these type of products, but is important for me to try them out and see whether they can add another dimension to my sex life. I do not have any problem with getting aroused or a stiff cock, but I especially love it when my cock is so hard it is fit to burst.

With this product in particular I cannot deny that after application there is a sensual warmth and my cock certainly stiffens up very quickly. But is that due to the application process or the product? Once applied and during sexual play I did find that it heightened the sensitivity and produced a much stiffer cock, sometimes reaching that bursting feeling I was looking for.

It does not present any unpleasant taste or odour issues, and is very easy to apply.

The important thing for me is that on its own it does very little, but after application good old friction brings it to the fore and makes for a very happy partner and self. I am not sure how or if it would help with erectile problems.

Not convinced there is anything in this tube that actually does anything other than moisturise.

Either the active ingredient is missing in a duff batch or too weak to produce any effect. Tried a few times now in varying amounts and waiting various times for activation and both with my OH or on my own to no effect.

Just an expensive way to buy an aqueous moisture cream.
