Take the Lead - Confidence is the Real Foreplay

You might be wondering, what exactly is mouth play? Simply put, it’s a deeply personal, sensual way to connect through intimate pleasure, and taking the lead can spark an electric connection your partner won’t forget.

 

For a playful twist, try Durex Playthings Oralicious Board Game for Couples, an immersive game designed to turn pleasure into an adventure. Roll the dice, explore dedicated cards for both partners, and let the Spice Dice pick props to elevate the fun. Here’s how to get started:

1. Own It Like a Boss

Seriously, there's something mega-attractive about someone who takes the lead in the fun department. When you initiate some mouth-on action, it can be a total surprise (the good kind!) and inject a shot of pure energy into the moment.

 

So, ditch the waiting game this time. Just go for it and watch the sparks fly! It's a power move that's undeniably hot.

2. Savour the Moment, Honey

This isn’t a race. It’s a sensory adventure. Think of your partner like your favourite dessert: Would you rush through that molten chocolate cake? Exactly.

 

Slow it down. Tease with your tongue, glide your lips around their thighs, their hips, the edges of where they want you. Building that anticipation can actually intensify eventual pleasure, according to sex educators. It also gives you time to gauge their reactions and adjust your rhythm.

 

For a playful twist, try our flavoured condoms. Choose from strawberry, chocolate, or bubblegum to add a fun flavour to your exploration while keeping things safe and sensual. Explore them here.

3. Eyes are the Window to the… Fun!

Sure, the view from down there might be interesting for them, but it’s not just about what they see; it’s about the connection. Maintaining eye contact can turn the heat up, letting a simple gaze send electric sparks between you. Sounds dramatic? Maybe. But that’s the thrill of it.

 

Or, if you want to mix things up, try the Durex Lights Off Eye Mask. Take away sight and let every touch, kiss, and whisper feel even more intense.

4. Find Your Rhythm

Smooth, consistent movement isn’t just sexy; it’s comforting. Start with broad strokes using the flat of your tongue. Then, tune into how their body responds. Moans, hip movements, breath changes — that’s your feedback loop.

 

Once you've found a rhythm they react to, stick with it for a while before switching it up. Too much variety too soon can actually overwhelm the senses.

 

Think of it like a song. Build a beat, then play with tempo and intensity.

5. Teamwork Makes the Dream Work (Hands Included!)

Your mouth is the headliner, but your hands? Total backup dancers. The combo of lips, tongue, and hands can provide a layered sensation that’s far more satisfying.

 

Try:

 

·       One hand gently circling or stroking other sensitive zones

·       Fingers exploring testicles or inner thighs

·       Applying pressure just above the pubic bone for an intensified feeling

 

Bonus: It also gives your jaw a break while keeping the pleasure flowing.

6. Hit the Pause Button (It's Okay!)

Feeling a little…tired? Totally fine! There's zero shame in taking a breather. You can switch gears for a moment – maybe some playful touches on their thighs to keep the sensation flowing. Or, hey, ever thought about exploring personal devices together? Remember, the goal is pleasure for everyone involved, so don't push through discomfort.

7. Treat Their Body Like a Treasure Map

It's not just about one specific spot, you know? Think of their whole body as a map waiting to be discovered. Let your hands roam their chest, their legs, wherever feels good. And if you weave in a little tongue action on those other areas? Mind. Blown. Making it an all-around enjoyable experience is key, so don't forget your fingers can do some serious talking, too!

8. Mix It Up, Baby!

Routines? Great for skincare. Not so much for intimacy. Keep things fresh by switching up technique, speed, and intensity.

 

Try this pattern:

 

·       Start slow — broad, lingering strokes

·       Build up — increase pressure and rhythm

·       Pull back, just when it gets intense

·       Then… surprise them again

 

This push-pull tension is a psychological and physical win, increasing blood flow, focus, and overall excitement.

9. Smooth Moves are Key

To truly enjoy the experience, let's be realistic and ensure that things run smoothly. If natural moisture isn't quite cutting it, consider a water-based personal lubricant. It can make all the difference in how things feel.

10. Build the Heat, Delay the Sweet

Want to really dial up the anticipation? Take a little detour before the main event. Instead of going straight in, explore and tease other areas first. Gentle touches, kisses, and strokes around the general vicinity help build a delicious, electric tension.

 

To make it even more thrilling, try the Durex Intense Vibe Ring. This vibrating ring delivers sensational sensations for both of you, features an easy stretch-to-fit design, and is waterproof, so you can enjoy the fun in the bath or shower. It’s the perfect way to turn up the excitement and keep the pleasure flowing.

 

Enthusiasm > Perfection (Every Time)

Exploring intimacy like this? Oh, it can be electric, playful, powerful, and insanely pleasurable. But let's keep it real: the hottest kind of chemistry is the kind you both want. No pressure, no performance, just mutual desire and that delicious "yes, please" energy.

 

Every steamy moment should be a shared adventure, where both of you are feeling turned on, tuned in, and totally into it. Because of the real magic? It happens when everyone's having a damn good time.

 

So, if you're curious and ready to explore, go for it! With Durex by your side, you’ve got the confidence and protection to enjoy every moment fully. Have fun and enjoy the playtime!
