Gun Oil H2O lubricant

December 21st, 2010 @ Amber St. Clare

I first heard of Gun Oil lubricant when I noticed the Fleshlights were coming with small samples of this lube in their FL cases. Gun Oil, it’s a pretty tough name, huh? Reminds me of some super frisky secret agent getting down to business! Gun Oil created a great water-based lubricant called Gun Oil H2O. The lubricant, like it’s silicone brother, is a great quality lube but it’s completely silicone free. It offers a really smooth and silky texture, and though I think it’s targeted (ha! targeted, when talking about gun oil…had to throw that in there!) toward men. The bottle is blue, and has a camo designed type of font that says Gun Oil in all caps. It also mentions that the lube is condom safe, making it big enough for men’s eyes to actually see and say “Oh I can use this for jerking off OR sex!” ;) The texture of the lube is smooth and it is unscented and unflavored. I haven’t tried the original Gun Oil which is silicone based, but I think the H2O water based kind feels really nice. It has a silicone feel to it, without the staining effect, and because it’s water-based this lubricant is toy friendly too! If I were going to buy lubricant for a male partner I would probably buy him this. I thought the formula was pretty long lasting, and I liked the texture. The flip off cap did seem to leak a little bit, but since I store my lube upright I didn’t have a problem with it. A little goes a long way with this stuff, and I liked how it worked with my silicone and steel sex toys. I didn’t actually have sex while using this lube, I only used it for masturbatory uses, so I can’t give you a full breakdown of how it held up during the deed, but I would imagine, from it’s solo performance on me, that it would be pretty good for both partners during any sort of sexual activity including intercourse. I got a little bit of the lubricant on my clothes and it didn’t stain at all, and it wiped clean off of my play surface very easily.  A small drop of this stuff lasted me an entire masturbation session. Definitely glad I decided to try this! Ammo up and grab a bottle of Gun Oil H2O lube for you or your partner at FunWares.com for only $15.95 for an 8 oz bottle.

Fleshlight – Stamina Training Unit

October 21st, 2009 @ Amber St. Clare

I adore Fleshlight. Their brand has really opened up so many men to using sex toys and masturbators. I’ve heard wonderful things about the original Fleshlight, so when I heard about the Fleshlight Pink Lady Stamina Training Unit I knew that I had to learn more. Fleshlight is the #1 best selling male masturbator on the market right now. For good reason too, their products are high quality and are known for excellent performance. Each Fleshlight looks similar to a flashlight, but once you twist open the top, there is a masturbation sleeve nestled inside. Fleshlight offers many orifices to choose from including Original Lady (Vagina), Butt (I think this speaks for itself) and Mouth (once again, this needs no explanation). So, what makes the Stamina Training Unit different than other Fleshlights? The STU offers all of the qualities of an original Fleshlight, but with a ultra-sensitive textured masturbation sleeve. This training unit is for men who want to last longer during sexual activity – the Stamina Training Unit says that “if you can last 10 minutes with the STU, you can last 20 minutes in bed!”. Made of soft supple flesh-like material, the Pink Lady masturbation sleeve looks like the real deal, with a vulva detailed orifice. The “skin” of the sleeve is very smooth. I’ll admit I was fascinated by it, and found myself fingering the faux-pussy. Having a vagina of my own, I can tell you that the Fleshlight feels the most like a real vagina than any other masturbator I have ever experienced. I wanted to explore the STU myself to give a female opinion on this toy. I love the collectors edition tin that the Fleshlight comes it! It’s sexy, it’s cool, and it’s a great place to “hide” the Fleshlight when not in use. The Fleshlight case that comes with the Training Unit is gold in color and though it’s bigger than a standard Fleshlight, it is still quite discreet while you have the cap screwed on. The STU even comes with a pillow pack of lube to really get the party started!

As life-like as the Fleshlight sleeve feels, you can make it feel even better, if you soak the sleeve in warm water for about 10 minutes. It will soften and warm the sleeve so when a penis slides into it, it will feel more like scoring a homerun than sticking your rod into a fake vagina. The inside of the STU masturbation sleeve is studded with little nubs, that make for an ultra-sensitive feeling against the shaft of the penis. After soaking the sleeve, drying it, and placing it into the Fleshlight case I lubed up two of my fingers and began to finger the Fleshlight. I probably looked quite silly doing it, but I was so curious to try it out! I found that it was actually pretty fun, even from a female perspective. I then lubricated a dildo and proceeded to slide it in and out of the Stamina Training Unit. I could feel the friction as the sleeve grasped onto the dildo. I could only imagine how wonderful it would feel on a real penis! So i decided what better what to find out, than to have the STU test out by a man. Who was the lucky guy? I went with a male friend who is already a fan of the Original Fleshlight. I figured he would be a great product tester as he already has experienced the joys of an original Fleshlight and he could tell me if the STU really is more sensitive than the original. When I gave my friend the gently-fingered Fleshlight, he looked like a kid on Christmas morning, excited to test out his new toy. I didn’t hear back from him until the next day. I thought maybe he had forgotten about his product testing, so perhaps didn’t find the time to test the toy yet, boy was I wrong! Turns out, he has ended up using the STU many many times and was too busy concentrating on the orgasms to even bother giving me an opinion. I didn’t mind though – I was excited to hear what he thought.

My friend told me that the Fleshlight Stamina Training Unit was amazing. He says that this may be his favorite Fleshlight, as the ultra-sensitive masturbation sleeve gave him a earth-shattering orgasm. He sheepishly confided in me that it was hard (no pun intended) to even last the 10 minutes with the toy! He ended up making it 7 minutes the first time, and then 10 the next time. He said that he found the sensations to be fantastic and that he definitely recommends this toy to all of the males in the blogosphere who read my blog. I also want to mention that the Fleshlight can be used hands-free, with Fleshlight’s “shoe method” in which you tuck the handle of the case into a shoe and then proceed to fuck the Fleshlight hands-free. You can also use the Stamina Training unit in many different positions, and wedge it between two couch cushions. You can control the tempo, the speed, the angle of thrusting – guys, the choice is up to you! I also suggest using a good amount of lube to make the toy feel nice and wet as you work your member in and out of the Fleshlight orifice.

Guys, you can even include your lady, if you don’t want her to feel let out. You can lay back and let your lady control the Fleshlight, have her hold it in her hand and move in up and down your shaft. Also, ssing a Fleshlight is a great way to have a “threesome” without really adding an extra partner. Try pumping in and out of your Fleshlight while you perform oral sex on your partner. It’s a great toy for couples, as well as single fellas. I am loving the Stamina Training Unit and I plan on gifting a few of these to friends of mine around the holidays. The Fleshlight Training Unit gets two thumbs up from me, and two thumbs up from my male toy tester…er, well, he *would* give two thumbs up if he could pry his hands away from the Fleshlight! ;)

You can find the Stamina Training Unit at Pink Cherry sex toys for $69.95 – be sure to check out their other Fleshlight brand products.
