Why do some of us find it awkward when we ask to bring lube into intimate moments? It all comes down the pressure of being "wet". 
Growing up, a lot of us were not educated on sexual wellness, and succumbed to the understanding of not being "wet enough" meant that people with vaginas were not aroused in intimate moments. This is entirely untrue. 
 
Even when we are sexually stimulated and aroused by our partners, sometimes our bodies may not produce enough lubrication in our genital areas. This is out of our control. So let's ditch the idea of "sucking it up" and pushing through the pain and discomfort. 
 
Comfortability for both partners is crucial for good sex. 
 
And then there comes the shame and awkwardness of reaching to the backs of our cupboards mid-way through intimate acts, for an old, dusty, phallic-looking lubricant we guiltily purchased from the chemist one afternoon. 
 
 
So... How do we comfortably and confidently bring lube into the bedroom?
 
STEP 1: BUY A NICE LUBRICANT
Be proud of the beautiful bottle you've just bought for your intimate moments. Show to yourself/partners that you are focused on intimacy and are buying the tools to help elevate and enhance your sexual experiences. PRO-TIP: Buy Tussle.
 
STEP 2: KEEP IT NEARBY
Now that you've bought a nice-looking lubricant, keep it close by so that you don't have to abruptly pause your intimacy to find your lubricant stashed away in a secret drawer. Tussle was designed to look like a luxury beauty product you can confidently keep on your nightstand.
 
STEP 3: BRING IT OUT BEFORE YOU GET INTO THE ACT
Before you get into it, communicate to your partner that if at any point you both need the extra help, you've got the perfect tool. This is a good moment to demonstrate your focus on pleasure that feels comfortable for the both of you. 
 
STEP 4: LATHER IT ON
The wetter the better, and we mean it. Lubricant enhances sensations and makes the act more fun. Try switching up your lubes! Have you ever tried an oil-based lubricant? Our Extra Virgin is perfect for pouring all over the body with natural oils that nourish the skin that also intensifies pleasurable sensations.
