$100 kits. They're a really funny introduction, and you can hide it as a
book. Icon Brands really has the kit thing down.”
Faro talked about something new from LELO: couples kits that combine
accessories, pleasure beads and massagers. She said, “The couple can
come in and buy one entire kit and get a little bit of everything that
leads back to a Fifty Shades experience. One is called Dare Me, and it
comes with the Luna Noir beads, a suede whip and restraints. And we have
Indulge Me, which comes with a couples massager, a pair of restraints, and
a feather teaser. All great for an overall romantic experience.”

‘We’ve done the
G-spot, we’ve
done the clitoral
angle, let’s try
oral sex.’ It’s
another wave
—Kim Airs, sexuality specialist
“
Taste Sensation
Products that change the taste of body fluids encountered in oral sex
have been increasingly popular. Just look at Doc Johnson’s GoodHead
line, which now includes GoodHead Suckers, Oral Sex Mints and Oral
Delight Gel.
Airs said, “In this industry, as with many others, people try to invent
something new. A different angle. ‘We’ve done the G-spot, we’ve done the
clitoral angle, let’s try oral sex.’ It’s another wave.”
“Masque [Sexual Flavors] is doing a great job of marketing. They’re
investing heavily in advertising worldwide,” Garland said. “The product
initially didn’t get that good response from the sales team here, but once
they came and did a presentation sales have taken off. Oral sex is always
going to be popular, so anything that helps people enjoy it more is good
with me.”
And Garland’s comments bring up a key point: Hearing about a product
is not as compelling as seeing it in person. And that’s why we’re looking
forward to January, and the chance to see the next new thing from trend-
setting toymakers.
