Make Me Cum Clit Sensitizer

January 26th, 2009

I was shopping Adam and Eve one day. My husband had given me a $50 limit and I wasn’t quite up there. I figured I might as well spend the whole $50 and looked for a cheaper product to add to my cart. I spotted this product and figured it might make things a little more interesting. Who doesn’t desire more orgasms. However, Adam and Eve’s Make Me Cum clit sensitizing gel did not.. make me cum. I cannot say for sure that it did not aid in this pursuit but if it did, its effects were not obvious enough for me to say that it’s a good investment.

Make me cum is a clear gel which comes in a 1/2 ounce jar and, for what it does, I find the normal price tag of 9.95 to be pretty exorbitant. I mean, this jar is just small. I wasn’t expecting something huge but I did not realize I was paying so much for so little. It’s about the same size as those small jars of eye cream. You’re not getting much.

With that said, you don’t exactly use a whole lot (although, I suppose you could if you really wanted to sensitize your clitoris). I usually dab my finger in the jar once or twice then rub the gel around my clit. Now, I don’t know about the rest of the female population, but the area in between my legs isn’t usually bone dry so I sometimes worry if I am getting a good concentrated amount actually on my clit. I suppose, were I so inclined, I could make sure to pat myself extra dry. But I’m not.

What is in the jar is a tasteless and mostly odorless gel. There was a faint medicinal scent which wasn’t necessarily unpleasant and neither smell nor taste has ever been noticeable to my husband when I have applied Make Me Cum. The active ingredient of which is L-Argenine, which, according to About.com is :

an amino acid that has numerous functions in the body. It helps the body get rid of ammonia (a waste product), is used to make compounds in the body such creatine, L-glutamate, and L-proline, and can be converted to glucose and glycogen if needed.

L-arginine is used to make the nitric oxide, a compound in the body that relaxes blood vessels. Preliminary studies have found that L-arginine may help with conditions that improve when blood vessels are relaxed (called vasodilation), such as atherosclerosis, erectile dysfunction, and intermittent claudication.

So I would assume that applying this topically would loosen up muscles in the clitoral area, allowing blood flow to my clit to increase. Thus, my clitoris would be more erect and more sensitive. The science makes sense but just because my clitoris is more engorged does not necessarily make anything more pleasurable or guarantee more orgasms.

I have used this before masturbation and sex. I like the idea of applying the gel because I think I might get laid. It makes me feel a little naughty like I have a little secret which no one else knows. I become more aware of my sexuality but I think it’s more placebo effect than the result of this clit sensitizer.

Once applied, this gel does 1 of 2 things for me. It either does nothing at all or I feel a general sort of heat happening around my clit. Now, I suppose this means that the gel is working and blood is rushing to my clit but the heat is more unpleasant than pleasant. I don’t feel particularly aroused or more sensitive but some stimuli do seem to be a bit more intense.

But perhaps the big test of success here should be whether or not I do experience an increase if the “frequency of orgasm” as the jar states. I have to say that, I have experienced mixed results and it is a bit difficult to pin the success of failure or orgasm on this gel alone or on surrounding circumstances.

About half the times I used this gel, I did feel like I had a better orgasm. The times which comes to mind were also more pleasurable sexually intimate experiences in general so that may have increased my pleasure more than this jar. Even with better orgasms, they were not easier and I would assume that a product which induces more orgasms should also make them easier to achieve. Otherwise, where exactly does “more frequent” come into play?

The rest of the time, there was no discernible effect when it came to quality or frequency of orgasm. Period. These were usually the times when I also felt no stimulation from the gel after application.

The bottom line is I think this is an overpriced product of which the only strength is the placebo effect. If you want, you can let yourself think this product is awakening your clit. If this gel did anything at all, it made my clit feel warmer and may have increased the enjoyability of my orgasms. However, I cannot say it did so for a fact. Furthermore, I have no conclusive evidence that Make Me Cum clit sensitizer increased the frequency of my orgasm. As the advertised purpose of this product, I would call it a failure and I cannot recommend it to anyone else.

    Thanks for that honest review! Your readers may also want to know that L-Arginine containing products can trigger outbreaks in users with genital herpes.

  • Dez says:

    Seems like it may be one of those products that is designed to make you think something is happening so you relax a bit. Damn tricksters! I’m sorry to hear that this didn’t work out too well for you.

    • Allison says:

      It works great for me. I only use a tiny amout and rub it in really good. Make sure to get it up under the hood of the clit. I give it a few minutes to kick in before doing anything. It makes me much more sensitive and have multiple orgasms when using it and I always want more.

  • I’ve only found one clit sensitizer that I’ve really liked, and that’s the mint pleasure cream from Guilty Pleasures/Spice of Life Goodies. Everything else just seems like smoke and mirrors. =/

  • AdamandEve says:

    I’m sorry this product didn’t work for you. I’ve tried it before personally (before I even worked here) and it did work fine for me. I had more orgasms, however, they were all less intense than what I’m used to now.

    I use it especially when I’m kinda, sorta in the mood, but not revving to go. I find it helps make me more sensitive to my vibes and other stimulation. Also, I only put it on when I’m beginning to masturbate or have sex, I don’t use it in advance to warm up to the orgasm. I can’t say I’ve ever used it and paid attention to the immediate effect on my clit, but I know it helps push me along when I need the release but I’m not completely in the mood.

    I really thought there was more science to this product, but I guess there isn’t. I hope it doesn’t skew you from buying Adam & Eve Products in the future. If you don’t mind me asking, what other clit sensitizing creams have you tried that worked? I’d love to take that information back to our merchandisers.

    • Adriana says:

      Thanks for the reply. This certainly doesn’t turn me off from Adam and Eve in general. However, I probably won’t put much stock in clit sensitizers in the future. This is the only sort of product I’ve used so I cannot make comparisons. I think that, in general, the whole concept is more hype than anything.
