The wand wasn’t originally designed with orgasms in mind, but the O-train they started rolls on.

If you're reading this, you're undoubtedly already at least familiar with the basics of sex toys.

Chances are that you already have one or two firm favourites nestled away, whether hidden in a sock drawer or proudly out on display (seriously, some of those glass dildos are gorgeous).

Whatever your situation, it's pretty easy to slip into the habit of having your chosen couple of sex toys and not really ever venturing out from there.

After all, if it works, why change it? Well, that's what we're here to tell you.

Here are the top 4 reasons you should try a new sex toy!

Whether you read them each in one sitting or skipped straight to the naughty bits, few erotic books have made as much of an impact as the Fifty Shades of Grey series.

Did you bite your lip in solidarity with Ana when she first encountered Christian in his Seattle office?

Maybe you aspire to have your very own Red Room, just like the mercurial billionaire.

Millions of people around the world have followed the erotic adventures of Ana Steele and Christian Grey over the last 6 years – and many of them have picked up a few tips along the way.

With the new film out right now, we thought we'd share the 8 things we've learnt from the Fifty Shades books.

Don't forget to let us know yours in the comments below!

So, Universal Studios have finally released the official Fifty Shades Freed trailer, and we'd be lying if we said it hadn't got all of us at Lovehoney whipped (ahem) into a frenzy of excitement.

Of course, we've already watched it dozens of times, and we have a few hunches as to what to expect when the third (and final, sob) instalment in the trilogy lands in February.

Here are 8 things that caught our eye in the new trailer – don't forget to tell us which bits you're most excited about!

International title She Said has covered 'Discreet Sex Toys' in a fun piece that features sex toys available on Lovehoney Australia.

Editor Tawny Lara has written about female masturbation in the past and its links to enhanced physical and mental health.

Featured are toys that look like rubber ducks, electrical toothbrushes and a lipstick; perfect for those who perhaps live in shared living spaces.

Lara says, "There's a new breed of discreet sex toys in town that are so covert, they don't need to go into a secret drawer. In fact, a few of them can even pass for contents in a make up bag or quirky decor."
