Better Sleep, Better You: What Science Says About Adult Toys

🧠 The Science Behind Bedtime Orgasms

Orgasms trigger a powerful cocktail of chemicals in your brain, including:

• Oxytocin: the "love hormone" that promotes relaxation

• Dopamine: enhances mood and satisfaction

• Endorphins: natural painkillers that ease tension

• Prolactin: associated with deep sleep and tranquility

Together, these hormones help transition your body from a state of alertness to a deeply restful state.

💡 Fun Fact: According to the Sleep Foundation, orgasmic release helps stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system, which promotes deep, restorative sleep.

🌙 Benefits of Using Adult Toys Before Bed

1. Fall Asleep Faster 💤

After an orgasm, the body shifts into a calm, parasympathetic state. That’s the same system activated during deep meditation and yoga—perfect for falling asleep naturally.

2. Reduce Stress and Anxiety 😌

The act of self-pleasure helps lower cortisol (your stress hormone), allowing both your mind and muscles to relax.

3. Non-Addictive Alternative to Sleep Aids 💊❌

Unlike melatonin or OTC sleeping pills, toy-induced relaxation supports your body’s natural rhythm—without grogginess the next morning.

4. Enhances Body Awareness and Confidence 💃

Making toy use a part of your nighttime routine helps you connect with your body and prioritize your pleasure, which can lead to stronger self-esteem and a better relationship with your sexuality.

🧬 What Researchers Are Saying

A study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior found that sexual activity before bed significantly improved both quality and duration of sleep. Another study by Meston & Buss (2007) found that orgasmic release has emotional and cognitive benefits, including mood enhancement and mental clarity.

We Tested 7 Vibrators So You Don’t Have To - Here’s the One That Won

At Lustford, we believe real pleasure starts with real people. That’s why we collected feedback from over 300 verified shoppers across our website, email subscribers, and social media community. We asked participants to rate each product based on six categories:

• Ease of use

• Noise level

• Stimulation accuracy (external/internal/both)

• Design & comfort

• Price vs. performance

• Vibe strength & variety

Each rating was averaged out and compared to help you see what people actually love—so you don’t have to guess what works.

Because the best vibe is the one that works for you—and our job is to help you find it.

🏆 Top Overall Performer:

Adventure Curve (Lustford)

✔ Highest combined score across nearly every category

✔ Top marks in Design & Comfort, Stimulation Accuracy, and Price vs. Performance

✔ A true all-rounder that blends quality, comfort, and function

🥈 Strong Runner-Up:

Buzzini (Lustford)

✔ High marks in Vibration Strength and Ease of Use

✔ Stylish design, crowd favorite

✔ Slightly louder than others but makes up for it in power

🥉 Most Popular Mini Pick:

Mini Pop

✔ Rated easiest to use

✔ Quiet, discreet, and simple

✔ Ideal for beginners or travel-friendly use

Other Notables:

Rose Toy (Generic TikTok): Decent all-around but lower marks in vibration strength

We-Vibe Touch X: Very quiet, but didn’t stand out in stimulation accuracy

Womanizer Premium: Strong brand reputation, but feedback said it was harder to use

Twilight Mood (Pure Romance): Average scores overall, with lower marks in stimulation

Here’s what we learned (and what surprised us too):

1. Size Isn’t Everything — But Shape Might Be

The Adventure Curve scored highest in accuracy and comfort. Its curved design hits just the right spots — especially for blended stimulation.

2. Power Means Nothing If You Miss the Mark

Toys with buzz but no direction (looking at you, generic Rose Toy) lost points in real-world use. Meanwhile, the Buzzini impressed with direct and powerful stimulation.

3. Price Doesn’t Equal Performance

The Twilight Mood came with a higher price tag but underperformed. The Adventure Curve and Buzzini both outscored it while being more affordable.

4. Quiet Toys Win Hearts

The We-Vibe Touch X was a top pick for stealthy use, followed closely by the Mini Pop, making them ideal for shared homes or dorms.

So, Which One’s Right for You?

5 Things No One Taught You About Your Pleasure — But Should Have

1. Your Clitoris Is the Main Character

Here’s a stat that might surprise you (unless you’ve lived it): According to the Journal of Sex & Marital Therapy, only 18% of women orgasm from penetration alone.

That means the clitoris — not the vagina — is where most of the magic happens.

The clitoris has 8,000+ nerve endings (twice as many as the penis) and exists solely for pleasure. Yet, most sex ed skips right over it. No wonder so many women feel like something’s missing.

If your toy or partner isn’t showing the clit some love, it’s time to switch things up.

2. Mood Matters More Than You Think 💡

Pleasure isn’t just physical — it’s mental.

Stress, shame, and even your to-do list can block arousal more than you realize. In fact, research from the Kinsey Institute shows that mental distractions are one of the biggest reasons women struggle to reach orgasm.

The solution? Slower moments. A safe environment. A mindset of play, not pressure.

Sometimes pleasure starts with turning off your brain before turning on your body.

3. You Deserve Toys That Match Your Body 🍬

You don’t need 30 modes or a Bluetooth app that connects to your playlist. You need something that fits.

Most mainstream toys are built around trends — not anatomy. That’s why many women end up with gadgets that vibrate but don’t really satisfy.

At Lustford Candy Shop, our designs like Buzzini, Bunny Pop, and Midnight Pop are shaped around how real people experience pleasure.

• External-first designs that prioritize the clitoris

• Curved shapes that hug the body

• Soft-touch silicone that feels natural, not clinical

Because comfort is sexy.

4. Fantasies Are Normal (And Helpful) 🧠

Whether they involve a celebrity crush or something a little spicier, your imagination is not something to be ashamed of.

Studies from Rutgers University show that sexual fantasies activate the same pleasure centers in the brain as physical touch.

That means your mind isn’t a distraction — it’s part of the experience. Lean into it.

5. You’re Not Too Much. You’ve Just Been Understimulated ✨

If you’ve ever been told you’re too sensitive, take too long, or want "too much," here’s your permission slip to call B.S.

More often than not, it’s not you — it’s the approach.

Pleasure is personal. And when it’s tailored to your rhythm, your body, and your vibe? You go from “meh” to mind-blown.

Final Sweet Thought 🍬

No one gave you a manual for your pleasure. But now you have something better: curiosity.

So ask questions. Try new things. Share this with your friends (because chances are, they weren’t taught this either).

And most importantly?
Make your pleasure a priority.

The Orgasm Gap Is Real — and Here’s How Women Are Closing It

Let’s Talk About the (Not-So-Secret) Secret We’ve heard the jokes. We’ve seen the memes. But behind the punchlines is a truth that deserves more than eye-rolls:

According to a study published in The Archives of Sexual Behavior, 95% of heterosexual men say they usually orgasm during sex, compared to only 65% of heterosexual women. That’s a 30% pleasure gap.

Let that sink in.

It’s not because women are less capable of pleasure. It’s not because they need more time, or more foreplay, or some complicated combination lock.

It’s because most sexual experiences — and sadly, many products — are designed around male pleasure first.

The Rise of the Empowered Bedroom Thankfully, things are changing.

A growing wave of women are:

• Speaking up about what they want

• Ditching shame-based silence for curiosity

• Exploring toys that actually understand their anatomy

And surprise, surprise: the results are mind-blowing.

At Lustford Candy Shop, we see it daily — shoppers trading in their buzz-heavy "basics" for designs made to hit the actual sweet spots. Products like:

• Mini Pop — tiny but targeted, built for external stimulation (where 80%+ of women climax)

• Adventure Curve — curved and crafted to hug your body with precision

• Bunny Pop — because ears aren’t just cute, they’re strategic

Why This Matters Closing the orgasm gap isn’t just about climax — it’s about:

• Feeling seen in the bedroom

• Taking back control of your own pleasure

• Rewriting the story that "he finishes, she fakes"

Because here’s the thing:

When women feel good, confident, and connected — everybody wins.

How You Can Start Closing the Gap Today:

1. Get Curious: What actually feels good for you? Explore slowly, without pressure.

2. Try a Toy Built for You: Aim for designs focused on clitoral, external, or blended stimulation.

3. Talk About It: With your partner. With your friends. Shame shrinks when we share.

Let’s close the gap together.
