What is Luxury?

Let’s start with whatever luxury means before we dig into the luxury sex toys out there.

Royalty is the ultimate manifestation of luxury. There’s been royalty around since 3000 BC, thus creating the world of luxury. The magic of our modern era? What was once only available to the kings and queens of the world is now available for you to buy… if you have it in your bank account.

Unfortunately, when we only relate luxury to those things that have cost a lot of money, we’re negating our own value. What may be luxurious to one person may not be luxurious to the next. In fact, throughout time, royals have been obsessed with everything from wearing white to licorice, to enemas. We all have our personal tastes; the wealthy just have the money and energy to spend on them.

And this is precisely what gets us to the predicament at hand. Some of us don’t have royalty bank accounts. Things can get touchy when we create a world of haves and have nots.

So what do they ‘have’ or ‘have not’?

Simply put, it’s care. Whether it looked like someone feeding you grapes, having new clothing, or a human whose entire job is to pleasure you, the life of royalty is a life of care. Instead of a simple viral self-care tips sheet, though, everything is taken to the extreme. Take a hot bath with some essential oils’ looked more like ‘have 5 people bathe you in a hot spring’.

Most of us grew up hearing stories of royalty and what a day in the life of a princess or king would be like. But most of us also grew up *not* being royalty. This juxtaposition of knowing what care looks like and also not having it can leave us with some pretty big question marks around our own worthiness.

So what’s this got to do with luxury sex toys?

For the wealthy, care in sexual pleasure looked like concubines and sex slaves. We could fast forward a few thousand years and look at prostitution in Europe. Sexual pleasure was available at a price. Not much has changed; there’s still a connection between your financial well-being and access to sexual pleasure.

So if you’ve ever gotten the cheap vibrator, or masturbated with a vegetable, let’s treat ourselves like royalty and heal. Luxury sex toys genuinely have the potential to bridge the gap between the trauma of not having your needs met and the luxury of care around sexual pleasure. We can elevate our worthiness by cultivating a luxury sex toy experience.

Create your own Luxury.

Luckily, in 2022, we have access to a lot of information and other people available to help us create more of that care. We live in the era of the absolute best sex toys at a variety of price points. We don’t need a king’s budget to create a caring experience of sexual pleasure. The most important ingredient here is the intention we put into our sexual pleasure. The difference between your regularly scheduled shower and the bath of a king is just a few intentional choices.

So let’s step into the real challenge, identifying the elements that would exude the *most* care and worthiness for you in your sexual experience because the best luxury sex toys are the ones that meet all your individualized wants and needs for sexual care.

Luxury Sex Toys for YOU

It’s up to you here to look through and see what elements of luxury sex toys speak to you the most. To help break it down for all you Queens-in-waiting, we’re going to focus in on the feel and looks of luxury sex toys.

Feel of Luxury

When it comes to sex toys, there are several ways you can treat yourself to a luxury touch. We’ll look at some ways you can experience a luxe touch with high-end sex toys.

Material

A soft fleshy silicone may be a luxe touch for you, or you could be into the cold firmness of crystal or stone. For some people, it’s the weight of the item that shows that it’s luxury in action. High-end sex toys don’t have to be about the price tag as much as your idea of luxury care. Luxury sex toys simply need to feel good for you.

Sensation

There are tons of options for sensation in the vast world of sex toys. For some, myself included, a gentle pulsing or suction is the peak of luxury, but for others, it may be the wiggle of a rabbit vibrator.

Sometimes, luxury just means a wide variety of options. When we allow ourselves to have a breadth of options, we feel that luxurious feeling of being a kid in a candy shop.

Packaging and Accessories

The magic of opening your new dream vibrator can be killed with ugly packaging and cheap accessories. Choosing a company that works with you to create a luxe experience gets you even more support. Imagine the care we feel opening Apple-esque packaging. Now picture it with a velvet or mesh care bag to keep the toy stored. Suddenly the sex toy drawer gets an upgrade too! And all of these elements are part of the experience.

Look of Luxury

The visual aesthetic can play a large role in our experience of sexual pleasure. How can luxury show up in how our sex toys look?

Color

Color can carry a lot of meaning in our lives. Choosing a color that feels good can make the difference between a distracting experience and losing yourself in pleasure. A deep red or a sexy black may be your ticket. If you have a signature tone, now’s the time to invest in a luxury sex toy that matches.

Shape

Sexuality can vary so widely between us all, so the shape and look of our ideal luxury sex toy will too! Having something that looks just like a real penis might be your idea of luxury. But if you’re less comfortable with the real deal, a more abstract shape might evoke a more luxurious experience. High-end sex toys come in a variety of shapes for everybody; take your time to pick one that feels luxurious to you.

Packaging and Displays

The look of the packaging is how we’re introduced to our new toy. Invest in a toy that shares your values for packaging. That could look like black velvet boxes or more discreet in a white box. In fact, some of the best sex toys can even be displayed as they’re simply that beautiful, a work of sensual art.

There you have it! You’re ready to become royalty when it comes to your sexual exploration. Remember that the best luxury sex toys are the ones that make you feel like you’re indulging in a tremendous act of self-care when you’re using them. There is no one right way to experience decadence. Just know that you are so worthy of a luxurious sexual experience. Treat yourself to a variety of luxury sex toys that works in your budget and grow over time. Unleash your inner Queen or King and treat yourself to luxury done the modern way.
