The heatwave is here, and the idea of cuddling up to your partner might seem less appealing when it's so hot. However, the heat doesn't have to be a barrier to your intimate pleasure. In fact, with a few tips, you can make your intimate moments as cool as they are stimulating. Don't forget to drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and in shape. Here are three creative and enjoyable ways to cool down during sex.
1. Put your lubricant in the fridge
A simple but very effective method to add a touch of freshness to your lovemaking is to place your lubricant in the refrigerator. The cold sensation can be particularly exciting and add a new dimension to your sexual experience. Here's how to do it:
- Choose a water-based lubricant : Their liquid texture, more so than silicone or oil-based lubricants, will be very pleasant, and they are also compatible with all toys and condoms. A favourite of ours is Sutil's organic lubricant Luxe.
- Place it in the refrigerator for about an hour before use. You don't need to leave it too long; just enough for it to be well chilled.
- Apply the lubricant as usual and enjoy the refreshing sensation on your skin.
2. Incorporate Ice Cubes During Oral Sex
Using ice cubes during oral sex can be an incredibly stimulating experience. The combination of the warmth of the mouth and the coldness of the ice cube can create intense and memorable sensations. Here are some tips for trying this technique:
- Prepare some ice cubes in advance and keep them handy in a bowl or glass next to the bed.
- Use an ice cube to trace your partner's body, especially on sensitive areas like the neck, stomach, and thighs. This can be a fun way to play with temperature.
- Hold an ice cube in your mouth while performing oral sex. The combination of the cold temperature of the ice cube and the warmth of your mouth can provide incredibly pleasurable sensations.
Remember to listen to your partner and check that they enjoy the sensation, as not everyone has the same tolerance for cold. Be careful, prolonged exposure of the skin to ice can cause superficial burns.
3. Use Cooling Toys
For those looking to explore new sensations, sex toys that offer cooling effects can be an excellent option. A popular example is the Hot and Cold by Deia. This innovative toy allows you to play with temperatures in a controlled and safe manner. Here's how to incorporate it into your intimate moments:
- Read the manual carefully to understand how to use the cooling functions (and heating, if you want to vary the pleasures).
- Experiment with different temperatures to find the one that suits you best. Start with moderate temperatures and adjust according to your preferences.
- Use the toy during foreplay or sexual activity to add a new dimension to your experience. The cold sensation can be particularly intense on erogenous zones.
These toys are designed to be safe and enjoyable, offering an exciting way to cool down while increasing pleasure.
Cooling down during sex can not only be necessary during hot summer days, but also an excellent way to spice up your sex life. By using chilled lubricants, ice cubes during oral sex, or cooling sex toys, you can explore new sensations and keep things exciting, even when the temperature rises.
And most importantly, don't forget to drink plenty of water, before, during, and after your lovemaking!
