19 sex gifts they’ll actually want this Valentine’s Day 2025

If you’re part of the 16% of people who enjoy using the shower for something other than, well, showering, give your OH the nudge they need to get splashy with you with this cheeky bath mat.

If their love language is acts of service (or even if it isn’t), maybe consider giving the shower a quick clean beforehand, as 65% of men admit to peeing in there (ew!).

Keeping your OH satisfied once you’re actually in the shower is a whole other ballgame — you’re trying to stay upright, for starters, and there’s nothing more distracting from the moment than a shower head that spurts streams in random directions.

If anyone is going to fix our sexy shower sorrows, it’s Womanizer, whose ingenious designers created a shower head with a powerful stream that perfectly targets those pleasure spots.

Plus, it’s so easy to screw on and off that your SO can enjoy its three jet streams any time — with or without you.

Let’s all take a second to praise whoever decided that opening 12-24 little gifts shouldn’t be reserved for Christmas. If a dozen days of erotic adventure sounds like it could spice up your excitement for Valentine’s Day, Lovehoney has curated a gift set that promises to lube, vibrate, and massage the path to ravishing romance.

Or, if you’re not one for delayed gratification (tell us about it), rip into them all at once for a night of uncensored fun.

Just remember to charge the knicker vibrator and bullet first ASAP if you’re planning to use them on the night — nothing could spell a Valentine’s argument quicker than a vibe not charged.

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it — so if you and your SO are experienced sex toy testers and know exactly what you like, you’ll only want to invest in a gift box that will add an extra layer of oomph to your collection.

Luxury adult retailer Bed Nerdz has found a way to maintain the element of surprise of a mystery box while tailoring its contents to you and your Valentine.

Simply fill in the questionnaire with yours and your partner’s gender (yes, they have a non-binary option), your ‘bedroom personality’, and your preferred way to be stimulated, and you’ll be delivered a customised set of three toys that will send you straight to La La Land (sans Ryan Gosling, unforch).

Looking for something a little more beginner-friendly? Bed Nerdz also offers a couples gift box and gift box for her — all cards on the table, so you’ll know exactly what you’re giving.

Whoever dictated that long-distance couples had to spend Valentine’s on a boring dinner FaceTime date were wrong. Gone are the days of mundane mutual masturbation — it’s 2025, people! Ever heard of sex tech?

Instead of clumsily balancing your phone screen so your long-distance lover can watch you get off, mail them this flexy vibe that you can control via an app.

Sync O even comes with its own handy dandy remote, so when you’re finally reunited it can be enjoyed just as you learned to love it and you can let those hands roam, baby!

The thing about Valentine’s is that it happens… every year, and the same old dinner date can become so dull. And if we’re ever on a mission to keep that spark alive, surely the day of literal blooming romance should be it?

So, while we can’t encourage getting your socks off in public, sex toy inventors Svakom certainly can, and do. Slipping this discreet little vibe into your pants and letting your OH take control will relight that ember, if not have the flame burning on full blast.

P.S. You can also enjoy this in the comfort of your own home.

This one’s for the leather lovers out there — need we say more? If there’s one celebrity we’d trust with the task of cajoling our loved ones into skin-tight leather even for a night, it’s Kim K.

The A lister has designed a corset so red and glossy it would make a glacé cherry jealous, and is strappy enough to prevent too much leather sweating (really not conducive to any sensual fun).

What really seals the deal, though, is its zip closure, which makes getting in (and out) faster than you can say Skims. And the barely-there matching T-string thong won’t add much longer to changing time — so that’s one less thing to worry about!

On a spicy weekend away, the last thing you want is to take up precious suitcase space with a bulky bottle of lube (although presumably you won’t need to pack much for this trip).

Thankfully, personal lubricant producer Überlube now offers this dinky travel-sized lube case, which can be refilled with their silky lightweight silicone lube at your convenience.

Just remember, silicone lube can’t be used with silicone toys — immediately damaging your brand new toy is the last thing you want to do — so save your slathering for metal, glass, and neosilicone toys only.

Not to put a wedge between two lovers but… have you ever considered putting a wedge between you?

If you’re in need of a little support during the more trying positions, relying on a trusty pink wedge could help you achieve deeper penetration and provide much-needed back support (and unlock a new angle!) for the ravishing receiver.

If you thought you knew your good angles, think again.

You wine and dine a gal and then… you expect them to wear lingerie? If sexy dress up is part and parcel of your Valentine’s Day traditions, the least you can do is make it comfortable.

Pour Moi has crafted a non-padded basque, which provides just the right amount of coverage for your post-V Day feast.

It’s underwired, so your loving partner won’t have to worry about the girls sagging, and can be matched with any of the brand’s Fleur knickers — so it’s perfect for brief and thong wearers alike.

Looking to flex your Dom/sub muscles? Tie them down this V-day — we mean literally (and metaphorically).

Don’t waste your time on makeshift knots and wrist-burning ropes, if you’re going to dominate someone you have to do it right.

And there’s no point investing in a bed restraint that can only be used with one bed — we’re living in a renter’s economy and we need to think long term, people!

This red set can be extended to fit all bed types, and is cruel to be kind to your sub, with soft, adjustable wrist restraints so they can focus on full-body surrender.

There aren’t many instances where pouring hot wax on your partner is acceptable, but maude (by 50 Shades of Grey’s Dakota Johnson — and “I love limes” Dakota Johnson) has found one.

When the big night rolls around, light your candle to set a warm, sweet and citrus sexy scene. Then, once you and your SO are ready to get down to business, blow the candle out (this is the crucial part…) and pour the melted oils onto their back for a sensual massage.

If playing with fire isn’t your thing, maude also offers a scentless massage oil that gets the job done just as well.

If you can’t enjoy something together, can you really enjoy it at all? Most of us have received chocolates for Valentine’s at some point in our lives, but For Play has created an entire experience around just three bites.

Hunker down for the night and be prepared for the libido-boosting adaptogens in the chocolate to have you in for a night of improved performance and arousal.

And if that wasn’t enough, the set comes with six cards that will help you open up mentally and physically — you’re in for a treat.

If there’s anything we can impart on you with complete certainty, it’s that the butt is an erogenous zone we all need to pay more attention to.

Whether you’re an anal play beginner or a long time advocate, a new backdoor gadget is always a welcome addition to the toy box.

Tell your loved ones to KISS (keep it simple, stupid) your ass, with this vibrating butt plug from Smile Makers, set with a humble three speeds and two pulsation patterns to help you cut through the bullshit and get to the good bits (by which we mean anal orgasms).

A strap is a strap, and no fun-loving lesbian is going to turn one down (les-be-honest). But, if you can’t be bothered with the actual straps of it all, a vibrating strapless dildo is a welcome alternative to the norm.

This one’s a present to you both, and supplies rippling vibes to both the wearer and receiver so you can cum together.

It even comes with its own removable bullet, so it’s essentially two toys in one — bargain!

Look, sometimes you're just not in the mood and that's fine!

But for when they're still trying to get off, be the supportive partner that you are and gift them a masturbator to help them on their way.

This one from Japanese brand Tenga is hands-free, and filled with lumps, bumps and ridges for an extra-textured wank.

There's nothing like a bit of escapism to keep the spark alive. If you're looking for a bit of spontaneity this V-day, try mixing up your night with a game that lets you role play in over 400 scenarios.

All you have to do is role a die to move across the board, and pick from three types of affair ('intimate', 'passionate', or steamy) at each square you land on to be transported to a whole new relationship.

Your reward? Whoever reaches the end of the board first gets first dibs on one of 50 fantasies in the game.
