Breast Cancer and Lubes!

It's October, and that means it's Breast Cancer Awareness month. It's time to support all the stores out there who are supporting women, and there are a lot of them. Some of these stores include NFL, Home & Gardens, Babeland, Twitter, and more!

For all you women out there, here's how to do a self-breast exam. Doing this simple procedure once a month can help protect you from breast cancer by finding the warning signs early.

Babeland has a great program for the month of October. Buy any of their Pink October toys and they'll donate part of the proceeds to fighting breast cancer!

Also, Babeland has a great, great savings program right now that I love! It's called Stock Up and Save. Basically, the company is giving you a 25% discount on the three things we all use most in our sex lives: lubes, condoms, and batteries.

Now, I don't use condoms, so I can't be any help to you there (but all products have customer reviews at the bottom of the page), but I am a very picky lube user, so I'm excited about this sale. I am picky about lubes because both my Dom and I have sensitive skin. We didn't know this until we tried two varieties of lube (from a store other than Babeland) that were perfectly fine for vaginal use but that stung like MAD during anal use. And let me tell you, there is no less sexy way to end a BDSM session than when I have to jump up and run to the bathroom before I scream. Not only did it disappoint us both, but I totally lost any arousal we'd had worked up. So the moral of this story? Only use lubes that you trust.

My favorite, favorite lubricant ever is Entice by Babeland. My Dom and I love it since it's clear, colorless, odorless, and easy to use. And the best thing about it is that it is completely comfortable and painless, even with anal use. Any time we use sex toys, dildos, butt plugs, or even when we tried fisting, we used Entice. You can get a bottle for $6 or even try a sample for just $1.50.

Another thing I like from Babeland is that you can sample a lot of items for cheap before you have to invest big bucks in a bottle of something you might not even like. If you are new to the lubricant world, or just like to try new samples for cheap, Babeland has a cool Lube Sampler Pack where you can try six mini-packets of lube for $7. And the sampler pack includes my fave, Entice, so if you want to sample it because you don't trust me when I say it's awesome, this gives you an easy way to do it.

Babeland also has Babelicious, a flavored lube, that is still glycerin free. I don't do flavored lubes, but a lot of people love them, so give it a shot if that's your thing.

They also have popular and famous lubes like Astroglide and Maximus, which is a really heavy lube safe for anyone wanting to do anal play. The Maximus is on sale, anywhere from $1 for a sample to $16 for a big bottle.

Anyway, because I don't believe in sending my readers to buy batteries and condoms online when they could get them at their local grocery store for cheaper and without the shipping costs, I went online and checked out some prices for AA batteries like the ones Babeland sells. I was surprised (and impressed), but Babeland actually sells their batteries at the same mark-up as major stores like Walmart. So you won't lose money by buying your condoms and batteries there, especially with the 25% Stock Up and Save discount, and you'll definitely get a better quality lubricant than you'll find in local pharmacies and sex shops.
