Blindfolds & Masks

What are masks and blindfolds?

Masks and blindfolds are the ideal accessories for sex with a partner, if you have plans to explore the wonderful world of your senses. When your sense of sight is taken away, automatically all your other senses; hearing, smell, touch and taste, heightens. This also means you become more aware of your body, your body’s signal and the feeling of excitement and expectation. Many couples use this as a small way to spice up activities in the bedroom. If you have seen 9 ½ Weeks with Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger, or Fifty Shades with Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan as head characters, then you will know that a mask can be used for different types of play. For those of you that are turned on by love and romance, as well as those of you that love to experiment with titillating erotic dominance. If you know and trust each other enough to give over control and follow the lead, then you could open up a world, up until now, of unknown erotic pleasure, increased intimacy and connection.

For seductive sensual play

Do you need your memory refreshed on what happened between Mickey Rourke and Kim Basinger in 9 ½ Weeks? Can you remember that fantastic scene where Mickey empties the refrigerator and feeds Kim while she lays on the floor without her sight? He takes sense play to the next level with an expectant and excited Kim, who was getting served everything from sugary, candied cherries to strong pepper and titillating chilli. And of course there is a lot of kinky play with ice blocks down the cleavage and chocolate and honey in every nook and cranny, on the floor, the wall, you name it. It all ends up messy with mind-blowing sex in the middle of the kitchen floor. Therefore this iconic scene has been recreated in the world of film since 9 ½ Weeks hit the cinemas in 1986, and it is still the one people reference when looking for inspiration for experimental, erotic play. You too grab the idea yourself, a date-night with seductive and tasty delights in the kitchen or the bedroom.

For erotic dominance

If you are the type that is turned on by erotic dominance, where one of you is the master, while the other is the slave, then there is a lot of exciting experiences ahead with a mask. You can get inspired by the racy red room from Fifty Shades Freed, where Christian blindfolds Ana and fixates her to a cross, while he ‘punishes’ her ruthlessly between the legs with magic wand. She trembles and moans while he continues to ‘torture’ and tickle her inner thighs, nipples and collar bones. Where will she feel the next sweet pain next? And then you can take it even further from there. One should always feel safe and secure during this type of sex play, without risking that it crosses the line. Especially when it involves the kind of play where one of you is missing one or more of your senses. Remember to have arrange a stop word before starting, that you can use when you feel unsafe or would like to take a break.
