Discover G-Spot Gel

November 12th, 2009

I previously reviewed a G-spot gel which was made by a company associated with Intimate Organics. However, this product was only available as a sample (as far as I can tell) and while I liked it, I couldn’t get my hands on more. Plus, who wants to go through a dozen sample packets? Not I, says the sex toy reviewer. So I decided to see if IO’s Discover G-Spot Gel was comparable to the product I already tried and – good news (for me, at least) – it is!

Discover G-spot gel comes in a tiny 1 FL ounce tube which isn’t much bigger than some lip gloss tubes. The tube looks much bigger than it is on every site I’ve seen it for sale so.. just a heads up there. The tube is labeled with the typical, sensual abdomen image like all Intimate Organics products and is dominated by orange hues. Inside the tube is a creamy, translucent gel meant to stimulate and arouse the G-spot. It has done so, without fail, every time I’ve used it.

Ignoring the directions which say to apply a pea-sized amount (because, let’s face it, who actually reads those?), I dab some on my finger and apply it to my G-spot. I would advise holding the tube upside down and squeezing from the bottom, lest you wind up with product all over your hands/linens/nightstand/cat. I would also advise holding open the labia or having someone else do it. I frequently have to apply twice after missing the first time. 😉

But missing does give some insight into how this product works. It leaves a cooling feeling just about anywhere but on the G-spot, that feeling is multiplied exponentially. It’s pretty dramatic and some may not like it. It increases with stimulation as the package advises. Fingers or even a cock help the sensation grow but it really doesn’t affect the rest of the vagina.

I like that it highlights just where my G-spot is and my husband has even been able to feel the swell which makes this awesome for partner play. It’s like a neon Vegas sign: Pull Over, G-spot Here! Of course, I can feel it filling up and know I’ll be able to squirt. Then I do, once, twice maybe even more times. I’ve usually got some left over and empty my urethra after playtime is done, too. I cannot say for sure, but I think Discover G-spot gel has made it much easier to squirt during sex. When I first started squirting, I wanted to but couldn’t. Performance anxiety and lack of experience were not my friends but practice and this gel have me able to do it with much less effort.

Quite honestly, I wouldn’t give a damn if this product contained mercury; I am that impressed with the results. but it doesn’t. Like all Intimate Organics products, Discover G-spot Gel is paraben, DEA and glycerine free. It contains “a blend of certified organic extracts, peppermint oil blended with L-Arginine” so there’s a slightly minty smell which is stronger than the Clitoral Stimulating Gel I have by them but isn’t really offensive. Some folks are not bigs fans of L-Argenine but after the success I’ve had with IO’s Discover G-spot Gel, I am not going to complain.

Well, I might complain that the tubes need smaller holes but, other than that? No complaints here. Discover G-spot Gel is great for anyone looking to locate, continue experimentation with, introduce a partner to, learn how to squirt with or otherwise involve the G-spot during play.

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.
