Wet For Her Launches Kinky, Unique Line of Valentine's Day Gifts

This year, put that Whitman's Sampler back on the drugstore shelf, and buy your girl a gift that will really get her heart pounding -- in a good way! Wet For Her, the Paris-based sex toy line manufactured by lesbians, for lesbians, launches two new items especially made for Valentine's Day.
"Who knows a woman better than a lesbian? We are and love them. How can a man design sex toys for woman when he will only guess a woman's pleasure?
Men's needs, women's needs and lesbian's needs are not the same," said founder Alice DeRock.
After noticing that the regular strap-on dildo with its flat base only satisfied the receiver, Wet For Her created The Union, a harness-free sex toy, bendable on both sides, with a clitoris stimulator. It includes a 3-speed rechargeable bullet. The bendable function enables one to adjust the toy's angle to reach the pleasure point effortlessly.�The wearer will be able also to bend the bulb part so it fits comfortable in her body, and have the sex toy curving up or down to naturally reach the position wanted.�
"By designing a new dildo base with a clitoral stimulator, this provides pleasure for both. This strap-on dildo is unique and designed by Wet For Her to enhance a lesbian couple's pleasure," said DeRock.
They also put together a WFH Sexy Time Box, a Valentine's Day collection of items including Uberlube, Erotic Lip/Nip Tingle, a Sex Arousal Bomb for the bath, and a pack of Lesbian Sex cards, like a sexual tarot pack. This can help spice things up in the bedroom.
"Sometime as a couple we get into a rut. These gifts are great for foreplay and teasing. It will show you what your partner likes, and you can go further from there," she said.
DeRock noted that these products are great for heating up your sexual relationship. On the Wet For Her website you can find our uniquely design sex toys, but also products such as massage oils, nipple stimulators, a travel set for a romantic weekend, etc.
"Sex is what makes you a couple and without a good sex life you are living as great friends," said DeRock. "Routine can show up quickly in your sex life and it is important to show your partner that you still desire her as much as in the beginning. Sex toys and foreplay products are there to enhance, diversify and spice up your bed time fun."
Wet For Her offers high-end products made by lesbians for lesbians that are not only uniquely creative with a useful, elegant and chic French sense of style as well as a feminine edge, but also are 100 percent silicone and phthalate free.
The sex toys industry is not regulated by the FDA, meaning that you can manufacture sex toys in whatever material you want. A majority of the sex toys on the market are made with phthalates and other carcinogenic toxic materials to soften the toys and make production costs cheaper.
They are very cheap, smell badly and can potentially cause cancer. Phthalates have been banned for children toys, because kids put their toys in their mouth. When you use a sex toy it goes in your body, melds with your mucus and releases phthalates and toxic materials into your blood. The only material that is safe for sex toys are those made with 100 percent silicone.
Wet For Her is also unique in that it is committed to working only with other lesbian manufacturers, so your gift giving is actually giving back to the community. But this Valentine's Day, it's most important to give something back to the one you love. So throw caution to the wind and shake things up, in the name of love.
"Rules were made to be broken, so break out of your comfort zone and ditch the good girl behavior to make your partner wish V-Day happened every weekend," said DeRock.
