It’s been a year since Lily Allen broke the internet with West End Girl, a 14-song album detailing the breakdown of her marriage, creating a void that she replaced with self-love. Given some the more illuminating lyrics in the album, it seems only right that she has come together (pun intended) with sex toy brand, Lovehoney, to curate a collection of her own personal favourite sex toys, all of which she has tried and tested while on tour, including THE blue, polka-dot butt plug.
The Love, Lily collection was born out of Allen wanting to help others better understand their own bodies and pleasure without shame. ‘Why should we deny ourselves enjoyment and the confidence that can come from that?’ she says. Our favourite? It’s a peach.
There are five toys and an Advent calendar in the collection, each one branded with a Love, Lily stamp of approval to show that they’re more than just enough and guaranteed to help you achieve maximum pleasure.
Our standout buy is The Peach, a clitoral suction toy that’s extra fruity. Here’s what you need to know.
Womanizer Peach Toy Rechargeable Clitoral Stimulator at a glance:
- 14 intensity levels
- Body-safe, smooth silicone
- Waterproof
If it’s anything like other clitoral suction devices Lovehoney has released, including viral hits like The Rose and The Lemon, it’s bound to go down well.
‘Who doesn’t love a juicy peach for dessert? This one is super soft and pretty too; it’s not meant to live in a drawer,’ says Lily, and we couldn’t agree more. It even comes with its own stand for easy storage or display, because this toy doesn’t belong in a Duane Reade bag with the handles tied. But even if you did want to store it away discreetly, the peach design makes it rather unassuming.
There are fourteen different intensity levels, which mimic oral sex, varying from a gentle vibration to a generous pulse, and you can flit easily through each one via the button controls. The body-safe silicone is what makes it feel soft and comfortable against your skin for extra pleasure. Peachy.
What else is in the collection?
Alongside The Peach, there are a couple of other suction devices (we sense a personal preference here).
The clue’s in the name with the Heart Duo Clitoral Suction and Licking Stimulator, with a side for each pleasure point. Lily selected this for its discreet nature, that would go unnoticed in a luggage while travelling.
There’s also the Womanizer Enhance Pleasure Air Clitoral Stimulator, which takes on a more classic form compared to the other two suction devices. One thing all three have in common is the Pleasure Air Stimulator technology, which stimulates the clitoris using pulsing air. This pioneering tech might be the reason why Lily said of the Womanizer, ‘It genuinely did change my life.’ Now that’s a treat for your p*ssy palace.
If a classic vibrating wand it more your thing, then the collection has this covered too, with the Pleasure Trip Silicone Rechragable Wand Vibrator. ‘It looks a little like a pink microphone. Maybe because it performs?’ says Lily. Enough said.
If you can’t decide on just one, then never fear, as the Allen-approved Enjoy Advent calendar is filled with 24 goodies, including an all-important suction device. It’s worth nearly £300, but costs just £99. If that doesn’t scream self-love, then we don’t know what does.
Even if you aren’t keen on taking the butt plug plunge, the polka dot design (the same one from the jacket on Lily’s album cover) makes it a lovely collectable. An ornament, perhaps?
Love and light, Madeleine.
