The internet is practically buzzing with a ton of ways to beat the quarantine blues, but we’ve got some suggestions that you’ll actually want to follow.

The novel coronavirus has crashed more than a few of our everyday norms. From how we get our food, to the ways that we socialize, to near constant updates on what to expect and new guidelines to follow. Covid has created a world that few of us are familiar with. Which isn’t always a bad thing.

Taboos and stigmas surrounding sexuality, masturbation, and sex toys are quickly being tossed aside as we are finding better ways to meet our needs and adapt to the new rules of this crisis. Something about being in lockdown has indeed inspired many of us to drop old routines, propelling us forward into a new era where we unashamedly play with ourselves. And, others. Six feet apart of course.

Ella Paradis, an online purveyor of some of the top names in innovative sex toys has seen customers from all over the world joining in on the fun since lockdown. With a boldness and determination that hasn’t really been noticed before. So is COVID working as our personal Cupid? Doubtful, but whether you’re new to toys or already have a well-stocked top drawer, here’s a list of sex toys you’ll need to get through this pandemic with your wits intact.

Sex Toys for Solo Play

While sex toys aren’t designed solely for masturbation, there is definitely a solid focus on it. These toys are great for when you’ve got some extra downtime to spend with yourself, or are feeling like a frisky FaceTime is in order.

Womanizer Liberty

While it may look like the freaky combination of an octopus tentacle and a new-fangled pore cleaner, the womanizer liberty is far more than meets the eye. This incredibly portable, fully waterproof, rechargeable toy it built to stimulate the clitoris in ways you can barely imagine – using pleasure air technology. It also comes with a travel bag and a magnetic cover, for when the travel ban gets lifted.

Crave Vesper

This toy is the absolute epitome of work up top, covid down below. How many of us have shown up looking fully smart in a blazer paired with only your finest pair of comfy sweats, prepared for an immediate veg session the second your coworkers click off? It’s alright, we won’t tell anyone. The Vesper is a gorgeous stainless steel bullet that doubles up as a super sleek necklace. Making it even more simple to go from afternoon meeting to afternoon delight, all without leaving your office.

Hot Octopuss Pulse Solo Lux

So, we swear we didn’t pick this one just for the name (even though it sounds just as cool as it is). The Pulse solo lux is a male masturbator with five vibration modes and an 8 speed oscillator. If that’s not enough this sex toy is 100% waterproof and comes with a wrist strap remote control, so you can finally enjoy a bubble bath to its full potential.

Not-So-Socially-Distanced

Stuck in with a partner? Although, this sounds like it would be a boost to the libido, many couples are reporting lower levels of desire and intimacy. Probably because they’re couped up with the receipts from their last steamy tryst or still have a mountain of work obligations pulling at their attentions. But, just because you’ve got the kids at home or are stuck in virtual meetings all day doesn’t mean you can’t spice up your sex life at the same time. These toys are designed to bring you together while staying resolutely apart.

We-Vibe SYNC

The We-Vibe Sync is a dual-headed, fully opposable vibrator designed with couples in mind. The adjustable shape will perfect contour to both your and your partner’s bodies, ensuring vibes in all the right places. Connect to the app and hand over the controls to your partner, so they can watch you squirm while also keeping an eye on their other responsibilities.

We-Vibe VERGE

The verge is ideal for solo play, or couples time, with intensity controlled via the we-connect app. That’s because the strap is designed to create longer erections with intense orgasm, while the attached silicone vibrating bulb simultaneously stimulates the perineum. Flip the bulb up top to still enjoy the squeeze while stimulating your partner’s clitoris. For the extra adventurous, the silicone c-ring can also double as a cage, should you really want to bring some intensity into the boardroom.

Rimmers Remote Rimming Plug

Another remote controlled wonder that puts your partner firmly in command. This slim, slightly curved plug is perfect for any gender, featuring a bulging bulb and roasting internal beads that are sure to give you or your partner the bliss you’re looking for. The remote lights up so it works perfect for those covert night ops.

Back to Basics

Don’t want the bells and whistles? Feel like you’re not quite ready to make the leap? Don’t worry about it! Toys are designed to make you feel good, which means that there will always be a toy designed with your preferences, needs, and desires in mind. Even if it’s just a classic.

Better Love’s Rabbit

The rabbit is the original make magic happen design. With parts designated to be simple and stimulating, both outside and in. The simplicity in modern designed rabbits ensures that they’re easy to clean and not too fussy, because- let’s be honest, at this time, you obviously have other things on your mind.

Liberator Jaz

The Jaz is a body pillow that’s designed to make sex more comfortable and more exciting. Giving couples a bit of assistance and support where it’s needed most, especially if your normal routine doesn’t involve acrobatics. Perfect for those of us that are wanting to step away from the vanilla, but aren’t quite ready for extreme flavors.

Sliquid Silk Water Based Lube

Work smarter, not harder! Sometimes, the only thing you need to smarten up your sexy time is just a tiny, little behind the scenes helper. Sliquid lubes are great, because they are hypo-allergenic and don’t get tacky. The Silk version just improves upon greatness by adding high grade silicone and creamy emollient esters to give you extended play time. Water based lubes are also sex toy safe! So they’re perfect for solo play or time with a partner.
