Another year down and it has been a big one! I talked about toys all over the place, started a school and embarked on my biggest project to date! Somewhere in the middle I stopped reviewing toys for a bit and, you know what? I actually missed it. And, apparently so did you. I thought I had to choose between writing about depression and writing about dildos but you folks made it clear you want me to tell you stuff about both- so I came back and found some awesome stuff!! What that break did mean was that I tested a bit less this year so instead of my usual list of 10 things, I only have 8 that I really love. But man, do I (or, in one case my partner) really love these! I’m so excited to share them with you. I’m even more excited about the fact that I can give you some of them! After you check out the list, head on down to the giveaway to score yourself one of my favorite things!
Now, without further ado…
The Redhead Bedhead’s 2014 Favorite Things
Doxy Wand Massager
This toy made it click for me that I am a wand girl. Wands are my jam. I now want to try all the wands. But also kind of fear that none will live up to this piece of wonderful. Check out my review and also, I’ll let this tweet give you an idea of how I feel about this thing:
Taking out my @DoxyMassager has become my masturbatory equivalent of Babe Ruth calling his shot.

Tantus Echo Handle
I love Tantus always and I love the texture of this dildo (like the best part of penetration over and over!). Add a handle for thrusting ease and you’ve got a toy that’s pretty much perfect!

Tenga Flip Hole Black
So, the cute boy adores this toy! Other sleeves have been tried and cast aside- apparently nothing has measured up to the Tenga Flip Hole Black.

Liberator Wedge
My first piece of sex furniture made me a convert. Whether it’s for comfort and accessibility or to facilitate crazy positions, there’s so much to gain from adding a Wedge to your routine!
Get it here: SheVibe, Peepshow Toys
Love is Art Kit
A super-fun and intimate way to create a sexy piece of art. I love that there’s a sex painting in my living room!
Get it here: Betty’s Toy Box,
L’amourose Rosa
I had all but given up on the concept of dual-stimulation toys and then this piece of wonderful entered my life. Two strong, rumbly motors, one of which lives in the wide base, make the Rosa the first toy I’ve ever used that hits all of the spots that make me feel good! (no small task). This is another one I tweeted about:
Folks, I just had a masturbatory out-of-body experience… the review for this one is a while off but, it’s going to be good. #damn

DISCONTINUED
Sliquid Organics Natural Gel Lubricant
I started the year looking for a good, thick water-based lube. In February I found this one and my search was over!
Get it here: SheVibe, Early to Bed, Lovehoney, Peepshow Toys, Lucky Bloke
Unique Condoms
These condoms are for-sure unlike any you have used before (they go on a dry penis, they start off a little crinkly) but once they warm up they are like another skin on the penis and feel like nothing is there at all. I love them.
