hether it’s a weeklong exotic vacation with a partner or a quick overnight business trip to a hotel, there’s a pleasure product
out there to make sure your time away from home is more enjoyable.
“Travel items are good for this time of year,” said Desiree Duffie, director of public relations for CalExotics. She noted that as
people plan trips for spring break, vacations and fun in the sun, some great items are out there to toss into a suitcase to bring
along a little sizzle.
Here are 30 items worth stocking and suggesting to travelers in your store.
1. Hello Touch: Jimmyjane’s newest product
is a vibrator worn on the fingers to enhance
natural touch. The ultra-compact Vibration
Pods are enclosed in silicone fingerpads and
resonate, putting the power of dual motors at the fingertips. “Hello Touch
is truly a vibrator for all,” said Jimmyjane Chief Creative and founder Ethan
Imboden. And since it looks nothing like a traditional vibrator, there’s no
embarrassment if the maid sees it on the nightstand.”
2. Tantus Paddles: Since the new paddles from Tantus Inc. are made from silicone, they
are flexible enough to wrap around other items in the suitcase, and they won’t grab the
attention of airport security since there’s no metal or wood. Choose from the Wham
Bam, the Thwack, the Snap Strap or the Pelt for a bit of naughty paddling while away
from home.
3. Ultimate Personal Shaver Kit: After a one-year hiatus, BMS Factory reintroduced the
Ultimate Personal Shaver with a new design providing everything the user needs in one
kit. Versions will soon be available for men and women. “We were overwhelmed and
thrilled by the response the new Ultimate Personal Shaver received at [recent trade
shows]. … We now know that this is going to be a fast seller, and we’ll definitely be
ready with an amazing product for you,” said Steve Bannister, president of BMS
Factory.

company offers such items as the Getaway Kit as the ideal travel companion. The

Sometimes that layer of “travel dust” on skin can be hard to get
rid of. This body scrub from Booty Parlor is a rich soufflé of
skin-polishing caviar beads and sugar and infused with a
powerful pheromone designed to make users irresistible to the
opposite sex. Your customers could like the idea of cleaning up

mood while out of town, and they also double as a great moisturizer to combat dry
hotel room air.
