There are a million female sexual enhancement gels, creams and potions on the market today. These products claim to make women experience more pleasure, and some even say that they can make women have better orgasms. Some even claim to shrink the vagina. Do any of these creams work?
Short answer is: We really don’t know. Most of these sexual enhancement lotions cause a heating or cooling sensation. The heating lotions (like KY Warming Liquid or Wet Warming Lubricant) heat up the labia, clitoris and vagina, a sensation which is very pleasant to some. Heating lubricants provide extra moisture for more slippery sex, and give off a sensual heat that’s warm without being too hot. These warming liquids don’t claim to intensify orgasm, rather the intensity of sensation during sex or play.
The cooling gels (Orgasmix, Kama Sutra Pleasure Balm) use menthol to cause a cool, tingly sensation. Some women find this intensely pleasurable, while some find the sensation to be too much. Cooling gels can be applied directly to the clitoris for intense sensations. Will it give you more pleasure? Possibly. Will it cause you to orgasm? Probably not.
A lot of the cooling gels advise you to “rub the product into your clitoris and labia over and over, repeatedly, maybe until your arm falls off.” We think maybe all of this rubbing might be the real culprit in the increased stimulation and orgasms. But that’s just our opinion.
Another group of products promises to make you feel just as tight as you were before the first time you had sex (Liquid Virgin, Snuggels). These products are comparable to the infamous China Shrink Creme. We’re not sure if these products work, but we bet they don’t. Liquid Virgin has a strawberry flavor, and Snuggles is cooling and spearmint flavored. If you want to give either one a try, they’re inexpensive, fun and boast other benefits (flavoring, tingling) that can enhance your sexual experiences. And who knows? You just may experience a tightening sensation.
