!! NSFW, Adult Content !! Spicy Subscriptions Deluxe Box Unboxing and Review: May 2013

Spicy Subscriptions is a subscription service for adults that delivers adult romantic products monthly to bring some spark into your bedroom… or living room… or dining room… or the kitchen… you get where I’m going with this. The boxes are always shipped in discreet packaging to prevent your nosy neighbors from giving you looks. Or maybe I’m the only one who has a neighbor that always looks at me strangely even when I have something as harmless as Victoria’s Secret box left at my doorstep… Either way, my point is, discreet packaging is great when it comes to sensitive material.

I previously read a review of Spicy Subscriptions in one of the blogs I follow, and my initial thoughts were “Ahh, reviewing this for all to see must have been a little embarrassing!” Then it came to me, it’s 21st century and most people wouldn’t be shocked reading about these intimate products. While the “testing” process itself should not be discussed here, I’m happy to present to you the contents and my initial thoughts on the items in the box. I labeled the post as NSFW so those of you at work don’t accidentally open it in front of your boss or co-workers, but the descriptions are very much clean: nothing lewd or vulgar.
Enjoy!

Moist Personal Lubricant
From what I read, this lubricant is supposed to be tasteless, however I found it to be very bitter. The beauty enthusiast in me totally noticed that the ingredients resemble what you’d normally see in skincare products: aloe vera, nettle extract, rosemary extract, ginseng extract – just to name a few. And they all are at the top of the ingredient list, which makes this a pretty healthy choice for those of us trying to avoid harmful chemicals whenever possible.
Overall: 4/5
Purchase: Yes

Neon Luv Touch Mini Mite
This personal massager (let’s call it that) comes with four different attachments that provide a good variety of sensations. I found the spiked one to be very rough, but someone might be into that I guess. It’s waterproof, so it can be washed with water without any problems. The size is small enough to fit in a purse, or in a cosmetic bag if you want to be discreet. However, as it says on the box, this item is for novelty purposes only and is not for prolonged and frequent use.
Overall: 3.5/5
Purchase: No

Pleasure Lickz Vibrating Tongue Stimulator
I like the idea but the execution – not so much, this thing was a little tricky to put on my tongue, and when I finally managed to do that it kept causing a gag reflex for some reason. In the end I decided to not even try it. The battery life is 40 minutes, by the way, which is a pretty long time!
Overall: 2.5/5
Purchase: No

Chocolate Fantasy Body Topping in Chocolate Strawberry
I loved this body topping, it really tasted like a dessert (or rather, a certain someone did)! The chocolate taste was very rich and felt like something you’d pour on pancakes or ice cream. The ingredient list doesn’t sound very healthy, but once in a while it’s pretty fun to play with.
Overall: 4.5/5
Purchase: Yes

Comfortably Numb Mints in Mint Chocolate
These little candies come in a cute tin that you can throw in your purse. Since I don’t have a need for them I will be giving them away to one of my friends (that shall not be named for privacy reasons) who doesn’t mind experimenting. I tried one just to see if it was any good, and it worked well, but took a while to dissolve. Another use for it would be to numb a sore throat lol 🙂
Overall: 4.5/5
Purchase: No

Wanna Be Dazzling Crazy Girl Sparkling Body Lotion in Pink Cupcake
This shimmery body lotion smells fantastic, almost edible! The fragrance reminded me of a warm vanilla cupcake topped with a rich layer of icing and whipped cream. The formula is very moisturizing and the ingredient list is impressive: kukui nut seed oil, sunflower seed oil, macadamia nut seed oil, jojoba seed oil, honeysuckle flower extract, sesame seed oil, mimosa tree bark, honey and many more!
Overall: 5/5
Purchase: Yes

Pink Indulgence Crème 
After reading the ingredient list I decided to pass on this sample. It contains lots of chemicals in addition to two parabens, so I’m afraid it might irritate my skin in the end.
Overall: 1/5
Purchase: No

Box retail value: $44.07

The verdict: Overall, this box contained some new and interesting items, it’s a good choice for anyone looking to experiment without having to shop around for these types of products. The value was above the price of the box, so you’re definitely getting a good deal for your money.
