Reviews Page 1 - Lovehoney Oh! Sexy Surprises Calendar Card for Her

Thanks to Lovehoney for sending me this item for testing and reviewing!

The Lovehoney Advent Calendar For Her is a great idea for a gift, or even for yourself! It A5 in size, looks like a Christmas card and comes with an envelope. On the front is an Advent Calendar design in purple and gold, and behind each of the 25 windows is a sexy suggestion. You’ll need a willing partner for all of them. It’s a fab idea to make the run up to Christmas more fun, bring some spice to your love life, make your relationship closer, and give you lots of ideas for naughty play in and out of the bedroom. If things have got a bit mundane in your relationship, this would also be a good way to bring some excitement and get your imaginations working overtime.

I won’t spoil the surprise, but one example of what’s behind the windows is: “Re-enact a sex scene from a film”… 9 ½ Weeks springs to mind! (Anything with food.)

There are some great suggestions behind the windows that hubby and I have giggled about, and I’ve got him to agree to try a couple of them out! And an advent calendar isn't just for Christmas… you could use this for any month.

Every year me and my partner buy each other advent calendars and have been doing this since the start of our relationship. It’s become some sort of tradition and each year we try and surprise with something a new and fun. This year we decided to scrap the usual chocolate and gifts idea for a Lovehoney advent card each. And without a doubt it’s the best 30 days of treats you will ever get.

We received the package super-fast and discreet as always. Inside was the concealed card, which was inside an envelope. This kept everything secure and made sure the card arrived in perfect condition. The front of the card is very traditional looking and perfect for christmas. Small golden hearts give a romantic and cute image to the purple background and I felt this made it look rather innocent. So you could place this on your work surface without anyone really knowing what you have behind the doors.

On the card you have 24 small doors. The quality is excellent and you can be assured that each door will open without tearing the rest of the card. This is defiantly aimed at couples who want to explore and spice things up or couples who are quite open with each other. Because behind each door is a sexy task (spoiler warning!), the tasks can range having sex by candlelight to going commando for the day. But none require you to purchase any items, so don’t feel you’re going to have to buy a whole new box of toys as the tasks are fun. Sexy and simple.

The card itself is the standard size greeting card and the doors are on the front. You can write a little message on the inside of the card as this is completely blank for you, which we loved as we find most cards can word things in ways we would never say them and this allowed us to make things far more personal.

Experience:

After I received my envelope with my pet name on the front, I opened the card inside to reveal a little message from my partner and at the bottom she signed it off “let the 24 days of fun begin”. As I’m on quite a strict diet at the moment, chocolate and other treats are off the table for me, but sex is not only a good source of exercise but it's guilt free and more pleasurable than chocolate, so I couldn’t wait to open the doors and see just where the next few days would take us.

In just the first week we had done things we had never bothered to try in the past few years of our relationship and it truly has helped us bond and grow as a couple. One of the tasked involved creating a sexy video and this boosted my partner's confidence hugely.

Also one of them was to swap the dominant roles in the bedroom and this has given us a whole new spectrum to our relationship which we are now exploring. It may seem basic, but a few words on a piece of card has done more for our relationship than a lot of things we have tried and tested. This is an excellent alternative to the standard advent calendars and a brilliant way to try out things you may never have thought of. A huge 10 out of 10 from us.

Good idea, some fun suggestions and well designed attractive design.

Only used the naughty side, but it's a good idea to have both available. Fun saving up a few ideas and using altogether. Great gift for significant other. Would recommend. Different levels of action too good for all audiences.

What we have here is an advent calendar that offers a naughty alternative to chocolates behind each of the doors.

The doors reveal a variety of instructions for you and a partner ranging from writing wishlists or revealing fantasies to sexual acts. It's bound to induce a 25-day spike in intimacy levels leading up to Christmas.

They are mostly pretty reasonable requests, however, there were a couple of occasions where I wouldn't have been happy to perform the act behind the door- and sadly number 25 was really not my bag! I think a forfeit option would have been a great addition or a choice of 2 acts behind the doors instead of just 1.

The card is quite compact and the design is nice and sturdy. You could probably use it for a couple of years running. All but one of the doors opened nicely without ripping, but that may have just been me being overzealous.

The card is really really pretty (the purple and gold design) and it doesn't necessarily have to be a Christmas thing, picking a door for a mystery sexual encounter could turn you into an amateur game show host in no time.

If you're a woman in a relationship with a pretty active sex life I think you'll get quite a kick out of this. It's just a bit of fun.
