Frequently Asked Questions

Why wear bra?

A well-fitting bra is worn to support your breasts. With this, it can help you avoid physical complaints such as neck and back pain. A well-fitting bra does not cause stretch marks or chafing.

Why bra without underwire?

A bra without underwire is ideal if you have unpleasant experiences with bras with underwire that sting or cause pressure points. Although a bra with underwire gives a little more support than a bra without underwire, it is good to know that 80% of the support comes from the band under your breasts. Wearing the right size is of course important.

What is a menstrual slip?

Menstrual panties wear just like regular panties but with menstrual panties you don't have to use pads, panty liners, menstrual cups and tampons when you have your period. Menstrual panties prevent you from leaking.

How do menstrual briefs work?

Menstrual briefs usually consist of multiple layers of different materials, which ensure that moisture is captured, absorbed and odors are neutralized. So, in fact, they work the same as pads and tampons which offer less comfort and are also prohibitively expensive.

What are menstrual briefs made of?

Menstrual briefs are usually made in three layers. The first comes in direct contact with the skin and is made of a soft and fine fabric such as cotton that also provides optimal comfort. The second layer is an absorbent layer made of a technical fabric such as nylon and polyester. This layer can absorb moisture and neutralize odors. The third layer is often made of polyester and is also a breathable fabric that allows air to pass through and should prevent you from leaking.

What is a vibrator?

A vibrator is a sex toy, which can be used by both him and her. It can provide extra stimulation, with the woman often reaching her climax faster and easier. The product can often also make rotating, pulsating and twisting movements and are available in multiple shapes and sizes. With which it is therefore also possible, for example, to perform double penetration or to stimulate both the vagina and clitoris simultaneously.

What different vibrators are there?

One vibrator is not the other. For example, you have the Rabbit vibrator, which allows you to massage both the
inside the vagina and the clitoris simultaneously. With a clitoral vibrator, the focus is much more on stimulating the clitoris and can be used, for example, during lovemaking to reach climax faster. Heated vibrators, on the other hand, are heated, providing a semi-realistic experience. Pulse-Air vibrators have the advantage that they can both penetrate the vagina and provide suction stimulation of the clitoris. The G-Spot vibrator is a model that focuses on stimulating the woman's or man's G-Spot.

How do you clean a vibrator?

Vibrators need to be cleaned after use. This is hygienic and you can also extend the
lifetime of your sex toys. Often it is enough to clean a toy with warm water and an antibacterial soap, but the advice is always to use a special toy cleaner for this. This is because toy cleaners contain all the ingredients to keep vibrators clean and fresh, for example.

Vibrator dildo: what's the difference?

A vibrator is also sometimes called a dildo and vice versa. But they are different products. A dildo is often soft and usually always shaped like a veined penis including the helmet. Dildos also come without comparison to a penis and often a little smoother. When using a dildo, you will still have to do a lot of work yourself. This is much less the case with a vibrator because vibrators are often motorized. They run on batteries or a battery and have the ability to rotate, pulse and spin. Vibrators can sometimes include additional stimulation and be enhanced with special attachments.

What boxer shorts don't creep up?

Nothing is more annoying than a pair of boxer shorts that creeps up, but of course there is a cause. And yes, that cause is actually quite simple. You just ordered the wrong boxer shorts.

This ensures that the underpants you buy will last a long time. Do you want boxer shorts that are made of an even softer material?
