There are countless benefits to a healthy sex life – clearer skin, elevated mood, better sleep, stronger immune system…we can continue, but you get the point. Whether you’re alone or partnered up, we suggest you treat yourself every now and then to a sexy night in. A night where your home is filled with candles, phones are turned to ‘silent,’ and a sultry playlist hums in the background. We know we sound cheesy, but as the air gets chillier, the idea of a sexy and intimate night in is all the more compelling.
To help make your night even sexier, we’ve got some essentials you may want to include.
The Set-Up
You can’t hav a sexy night in without a candle or five burning. Solo or with company, a candle is an instant way to set the mood. For this sort of evening we’re burning Nest New York’s Rose Noir & Oud Candle, which emits a warm floral fragrance, with notes of rose de mai, smoky oud and black leather, along with Heretic’s This Smells Like My Orgasm candle. In addition to it’s fitting name, the candle is comprised of tart grapefruit, neroli, ripe cassis berries, gunpowder tea and Turkish rose. Another candle we love for it’s cheeky name and alluring scent? Tom Ford’s Fucking Fabulous candle. It has a scent of woody spices with notes of bitter almost oil, leather accord and orris accord. It’s described by the designer himself as evoking “the private exchanges where fantasies come true.” Finally, we’re lighting up (then blowing out) Kiki De Montparnasse’s Massage Oil Candle in Lotus 9. First, ‘seduce the room with scent,’ then use the melted natural wax as a warm massage oil.
Wardrobe
It’s been said that when you look your best, you feel your best. Make-up artist, Scott Barnes belives that “looking good leads to feeling good, feeling good leads to empowerment.” For an intimate night in, our wardrobe woes are primarily focused on our undergarments. Kiki De Montparnasse lingerie always makes us feel our sexist, especially the Sundial bralette and matching thong. And, while they may be impractical in the house, no one does sexy quite like Mr. Christian Louboutin and his So Kate Pigalle pumps. Put them on for 10 minutes, or keep them on the whole evening. With a touch of delicate jewelry, like Birk’s Silver Rosée Du Matin necklace, and a swipe of Charlotte Tilbury’s K.I.S.S.I.N.G lipstick over your lips, your look is complete.
The Extras
A sexy night in is made all the more fun with a few little extras, especially if you are sharing the night with a significant other. A game of After Dinner Amusements: Truth or Dare, is perfect for, well, after dinner, and to get things rolling. Learn a few naughty truths or engage in a few risky dares. A game of Kinky Truth or Dare done in a pick-a-stick style is another great choice, with super racy truths and super dirty dares. All your steamy secrets will be out in the open, should you dare to play. If picking truth isn’t your thing, with suggest a Box of Dares. Each dare is perfect for couples of any relationship stage, and instantly spices up your night. Once things are on the move, sex has not been the same without Unbound’s O.M.G- Spot Stim Serum. Using Japanese peppermint oil and L-Arginine, the serum increases the size and sensitivity of the G-spot, which in the end, makes it easer to find. The serum is cool, slightly tingly and delivers results!
