Head Someplace Sexy This Memorial Day Weekend—and Don’t Forget the Astroglide

Memorial Day

When you order a “Sex on the Beach” this Memorial Day weekend, you may get more than you bargained for. If you plan on making the coming weekend memorable for you and your significant other, you’ll want to spend the three days somewhere outside of your usual stomping ground. But, like many busy couples across the country, you haven’t had time to plan out a romantic getaway. Plane tickets are too expensive, anyway.

To really take advantage of the long weekend, follow some of these last minute travel ideas, courtesy of your friends at Astroglide Personal Lubricants.

  • Emphasis on “bed” – In the history of mankind, has there been a more romantic getaway idea than packing the car and heading to a bed and breakfast? You might have a little more trouble booking one in the Hamptons, but there are plenty out there. Quaint and cozy, a bed and breakfast is a great place to book your days with shopping and picnics and your nights with—well, what happens behind closed doors stays behind closed doors.
  •  By the beach, boy – What better way to bring in the summer than a nice, cold Sex on the Beach? How about a hot one? Head to the water this holiday weekend to spend some time in the sun and let your troubles melt away. A little stress relief and a lot of sun offer the perfect combination for getting in the mood.
  •  Out under the stars – Dust off the tandem sleeping bag: it’s time to pitch a tent. Load the car with plenty of food to roast over the fire and lace up your hiking boots for the first solid camping opportunity of the summer. It’ll just be you, your significant other, chirping crickets and a black sky full of bright stars. After all, getting in touch with nature is a great way to get in touch with each other.
  •  Room with a view – Maybe you aren’t a fan of the outdoors—but you can get some great views and some serious sun in the city if you find the right hotel. Look for a hotel with rooftop amenities, like restaurants, bars, pools and the like. If you want to get away from it all and have some romantic, stress free time with your significant other, you don’t always have to move horizontally. Think vertical to spice things up.

Bring Sexy Back on Mother’s Day

Happy_Mothers_DayHow Husbands and Wives Work Together to Make a Hot Mom

 With all the daily stress of being a mother, it’s sometimes hard to feel sexy. You’re constantly trying to juggle the daily responsibilities of your job, housekeeping and the kids, and no matter how much dad helps out, mothers can get caught in the daily whirlwind and forget what sexiness really feels like.

Mother’s Day rolls around once a year, and it’s as much a day to celebrate womanhood as it is to celebrate family. Husbands can play a crucial role in helping mom feel sexy, and moms can do their own part to celebrate their womanhood. Just follow a few simple tips this holiday, courtesy of Astroglide Personal Lubricants, and you’ll be on your way to a happy Mother’s Day.

 For Husbands

  •  Compliment her already! – You’ve been married for HOW MANY YEARS? When was the last time you paid her a compliment? Whether it’s about her appearance, something she worked hard on or just a simple, everyday thing, compliment her and make her feel good about herself.
  •  Flowers and lighting – If you decide to buy her flowers, make sure that you get a few extra that you keep separate from the bouquet so that you can sprinkle the petals on the bed for a sensual bedroom experience. Bring some candles into the picture for some moodlighting, or if candles aren’t your thing, replace one of two of the regular lightbulbs with soft colored ones for a change of scenery.
  •  Buy her a beauty day – There is no better way to help mom feel sexy than by treating her to a day of beauty. Buy your wife a day filled with manicures, haircuts and massages to help her relax and get back in touch with her inner self.
  •  Or you be the spa. Money is tight for many folks, so if sending her to a spa is out of the question, you can set up a hot relaxing bubble bath right in your own bathroom. Run the water for her, set the scene with some candles, flowers, her drink of choice and perhaps that latest best-seller that she’s been meaning to read. And after her bath, use her favorite body lotion and give her a full body massage . . . and take it as far as you want to go.
  • Send her out with friends – Nothing like a night on the town with friends to get a girl back in touch with her femininity. Plan a girl’s night for your wife and her friends for some adult conversation and fun.
  • Take her on a mini shopping spree at a lingerie store. There are inherent dangers in buying the wrong size and poor fitting lingerie for your leading lady, so it’s best to take her shopping for those special items. Even though it’s only you and she that get to see these goodies, knowing that she’s wearing beautiful, proper-fitting lingerie will not only lift her spirits but possibly her libido as well.

 For Moms

  •  Find a new scent – Your sense of smell is strongly tied to emotion. Feeling like you need a change in attitude? Go out shopping and check out some new perfumes to put a little spring in your step and make you feel sexier around your man.
  •  Shave…everywhere – Our daily activities usually don’t allow us the time to really get down to brass tacks. A hurried razorblade over the legs in the shower and we’re drying off and out the door! Take a little extra time to shave anywhere and everywhere you want to be touched. Be sure to invite your husband to explore all this new territory.
  •  Dancing for him? No pole necessary! – A little striptease for your lover can go a long way in making you feel sexy again. Just remember, if you’re going to strip for him on Mother’s Day, you better have something extra special lined up for Father’s Day!

Let the Sun and Beautiful Weather Help Your Sex Life Bloom This Spring

 The birds, the bees and the butterflies represent the beginning of spring and the blossoming of romance. As the snow melts away and the trees come alive with the sounds of spring, nurture the buds of romance and warm up your sex life with some ideas for making the most of the outdoors with your date, courtesy of Astroglide Personal Lubricants.

  •  A season for festivities. Spring is a time to celebrate, and what better way to do so than sharing the love outdoors at a festival? Whether it’s as large as an art festival or as small as a farmer’s market, you and your date will be able to enjoy the warm weather and a little exercise with plenty to see and ample time for conversation.
  •  Ain’t nothin’ but mammals. If the birds and the bees aren’t enough, add the monkeys, the lions and the exotic birds to the equation with a trip to the zoo. An inexpensive option for enjoying the weather with plenty of visual stimuli, the zoo offers an array of conversation points to start your date off on the right foot.
  •  Outdoor antics. Want to build the intensity? Gettin’ busy outdoors is a sensually stimulating way to throw a little spice into your love life—the more taboo, the more exciting! If you’re getting it on outdoors, we suggest using a private balcony or rooftop.
  •  Let love grow. Botanical gardens are just beginning to thrive when the spring rolls around. A casual stroll through the beauty and fragrance of a garden can help set the mood. And, if you play your cards right, you might just get a lesson in the finer points of pollination.

  •  Batter up! A baseball game is a fantastic way to spend a spring afternoon or evening with your date. Enjoy the sights and sounds, nosh on some peanuts and cracker jacks, have a couple of beers—and you might just end up hitting a homerun by the end of the date!
  •  Get your blood pumping. Spring is the time to skip the treadmill and get some fresh air while you exercise. Whether it’s a hike, bike ride or 5k run/walk, take the date outdoors for a little physical fitness. After all, getting each other worked up could work for you when the date is over.
  •  Ants aren’t the only ones who enjoy a good picnic. You can’t say enough about a picnic date—spreading a blanket at a park or beach, a packed picnic basket, a nice bottle of wine and the
