Even if you think your between-the-sheets time doesn’t need a kick-start, remember 37% of women need clitoral stimulation (and not just penetration) to climax. Adding a toy into the mix can be a fun way to ensure maximum satisfaction for both of you. If you’re a beginner, go slow – use the lowest setting and the smallest size. Je Joue’s Rabbit Bullet and Kiki de Montparnasse’s Gold Bullet are the perfect entry-level options and ideal for couples play. Those wanting to explore new territory should try LELO’s cult Transformer, a double-ended vibrator that can be used for everything from clitoral to G-spot and even prostate stimulation.

If you want to get adventurous, think about add-ons. While not a toy per se, a decent lubricant is a good-sex staple – it can increase sensation and create a more intimate experience. Nécessaire’s Sex Gel is one to keep on your radar: unlike its more traditional counterparts, it uses aloe vera and hyaluronic acid to provide the ‘slip’; it’s water-based, so it’s safe to use with toys and condoms. Uberlube’s cult formula is free from sticky residue. Play it safe with HANX’s vegan, ultra-thin condoms, or try LELO’s bestselling Hex, designed to maximise sensation without sacrificing safety.
