We'd say that the best sex gifts are the ones that make them feel good inside and out. Not only will the perfect present bring with it new situations and/or sensations, prompting you both to try something new, but it may also bring on an enjoyable boost of confidence.
Having been on the receiving end of both good (luxury lingerie) and bad sex gifts (glow-in-the-dark condoms) over the years, I can confirm that the top-tier ones bring with them empowerment, excitement, and a sense of owning my pleasure.
Saying that, the perfect sensual present doesn't have to break the bank. Whether celebrating your anniversary, a birthday, or a recent promotion, you just need something that suggests you listen. So, if you know she enjoys oral sex, then a clit sucker may be the way to go. Or perhaps she's been talking about trying some new positions? Then a sex game stuffed with saucy suggestions and dares seems like a pretty low-risk option.
Thankfully, GLAMOUR's sexual wellness writers have pulled together an edit of the best sex gifts that won't kill the mood. So, stay tuned for the best vibrators, sex pillows and massage candles at the top of our lust list for 2025.

Ahead, the 21 best sex gifts for 2025, approved by GLAMOUR's sexual wellness writers:
Why we love it: LELO, founded in the front room of a townhouse in Stockholm back in 2003, has single-handedly made dildos and rabbit vibrators luxe. Now, it's your go-to if you're willing to splurge on sex aids. This bundle — packed with heterosexual matches in mind — includes a remote-controlled couples massager, as well as a vibrating cock ring, a pack of the brand's no-budge HEX condoms, a travel-friendly bottle of water-based lube and an oral sex balm designed to enhance arousal. Essentially, it should take you from heated foreplay to a blended, shared orgasm experience.
Why we love it: There's something incredibly sexy about silk bedding. But while a whole new duvet set can come in a little expensive, a good-quality silk pillowcase can be purchased, often, for less than £100. LILYSILK pillowcases are widely regarded as some of the best, aiding better hair and skin health while also elevating your giftee's interior game. Just have a towel handy if you are planning to use lube or their new massage candle to avoid a (suggestive) stain…
Why we love it: Following our mutual obsession with the Rose, launched by Lovehoney back in 2022, we've made it a priority to track down our splurge-worthy clit suckers. Arguably one of the best? The LELO SILA, a stylish and discreet, in that it's virtually silent, sex toy which is available in a host of pastel hues.
It simulates the feeling of oral sex using contactless sonic waves, while the wide mouth creates a gentle suction around your clit and clitoral hood, stimulating more of those feel-good nerves than some other players on the market. Moulded from body-safe silicone into an ergonomic design that fits snuggly into the palm of your hand, it's safe to say we're obsessed — and that's without mentioning the eight vibey modes. Intense orgasms incoming.
Why we love it: For the partner who insists on a nightly massage, a candle that melts to a warm skin-soothing oil is the perfect gift to show you listen. With notes of cypress and vetiver, as well as shea butter, sweet almond oil and jojoba oil to nourish the skin, this is a sensual must-add to their self-care routine.
Why we love it: The latest in a long line of life-changing sex toys from Smile Makers, The Poet is a super-inclusive air pulse stimulator. For example, rather than finding fiddly buttons, a quick squeeze will up the intensity. Also recognising that the majority of vulva-owners need clit stimulation (either simultaneous, or dedicated) to climax, as well as the fact clitorises come in all shapes and sizes, this clit sucker comes with three interchangeable mouths to ensure a snug fit. The perfect self-gift if you already know and adore the Lovehoney Rose Clitoral Suction Stimulator.
Why we love it: The rumours are true — sliding a cushion under your vulva-owner's lower back during penetration can make deep penetration easier, more comfortable and more successful, if aiming for an orgasm. The logic: the raised angle makes it easier to hit her G-spot. This firm foam pillow comes coated in non-slip velvet and fitted with two strong loops for attaching restraints. Enjoy!
Why we love it: The magic wand vibrator is a tried, tested and much-loved addition to many people's bedside drawers — mainly because the toy-type packs intense power, but also because it's a toy that can go incognito. Yep, there's nothing in the rule book that says you can't use this as a massage gun, knocking knots out post-penetration. Godemiche gives you the option to customise your partner's new teaser, picking a style, colour and texture you feel reflects their personality, making this a really effective way to upgrade their most well-used sex aid. Our sex writer, Sophie Donovan's, favourite combo? Bubbles in Sea Witch Blue.
Why we love it: Female-founded sexual wellness brand DAME recently launched a vegan arousal serum, designed to amplify every touch, kiss or shudder during sex (solo or partnered). Not only is it pH-balanced to avoid disrupting your natural balance — a healthy vagina falls in the range of 3.8 and 5.0 — but is also enriched with peppermint oil to providing a cooling sensation, cinnamon bark oil extract to boost blood flow to the vulva and antimicrobial ginger essential oil to gently warm on contact.
Why we love it: Infused with an aromatherapeutic super-blend of ylang ylang, patchouli and frankincense, this Love Sleep Seduction Candle will set the perfect tone for your next post-coital cuddle. Or, if you're not particularly confident when it comes to initiating, use this candle to signal you're in the mood.
Why we love it: Take it from a seasoned toy tester — there are endless ways to use this clit vibrator, all of which may reignite your sexual spark. Lay it flat against your labia to stimulate the entire erogenous zone, or point the tapered tip against your clitoris for more targeted sensations. Using the single button on the base to move between the four speeds and two pulsation modes, you should feel that familiar tingling stretching down your thighs. Oh, and we should mention that your giftee should get up to three hours of play per charge.

Why we love it: There's no mood killer quite like not having the essentials when the mood strikes. This bundle from Smile Makers kits the receiving couple out with (extra-lubricated, vegan) condoms, intimate wipes and a tube of the brand's Generous Gel water-based lubricant — FYI, one of our favourites that's safe to use with silicone sex toys and is not at all sticky. Our team also love the discreet packaging which avoids any mention of the words “sex,” “masturbation” or “sexual lubricant" so they can leave it on display.
Water-based lubricants to pop in your bedside table.
Why we love it: A brand that was created with the sole purpose of closing the orgasm gap? Yeah, we're keen. Packed with intense power, delivered via rumbly sensations delivered straight to her G-spot via that ridged head, this one's for those who crave penetration-like play on the regular. Plus, with five patterns, each customisable in terms of its intensity, this one's a guaranteed winner, whether she's a total beginner, or has a whole toy box tucked just out of sight.
Why we love it: There's a reason the coordinating bra-and-brief combo continues to be so popular: It's both a treat for the wearer and their partner. However, if she prefers something a little more modest, this heart-adorned lace body (50% of which is recycled fibres) is both sculpting, thanks to the waist detailing, and sexy — plus is available in a size XS to XXL.

Why we love it: There's a reason we stay loyal to missionary, doggy and the spooning sex position — they're classic moves that allow you to connect physical without too much thought or contortion. However, if you are keen to mix it and experiment with new positions, locations or sexy dares, a sex game could offer the spontaneity you crave. This board game (think of it as the naughty upgrade on Monopoly) asks you to answer revealing questions or complete a forfeit to move. First one to finish wins.
Why we love it: LELO's ENIGMA is designed to stimulate both the entire clitoris and the G-spot at the same time to bring on a blended climax. In fact, LELO promises its spin on the classic rabbit vibrator will deliver “an orgasm so intense you’ll think you’ve left this planet.” Emitting (virtually silent) sonic waves but without any actual touching, there's minimal chances of numbing her — ideal if you're using this together as part of a foreplay marathon, or as a pre-cursor to penetration. It's also super easy to control, courtesy of the three-button control panel, and comes fitted with eight unique settings (persistent rhythms and intermittent tremors). The ideal alternative if your fingers or tongue need a breather.
Why we love it: Handpicked by Lovehoney experts, this limited edition bundle is tailored to teasing and includes a padded blindfold, satin restraints, a baby bullet, a bejewelled butt plug, an open-ended stroker (for him), vibrating cock ring (for you both), plus a dual-ended clit sucker (for her). The latter, better known as the Indulge G-Spot and Clitoral Suction Stimulator has, to date, racked up more than 490 five-star reviews, with one fan declaring it brought about her “best. orgasm. ever.” Sold.

Why we love it: While accentuating her shape beautifully — something we regularly praise Lounge undies for — this bra should also bring with it a hike in her confidence. Best paired with the Quilted Lace G-string, this scarlet set is sure to be reached for repeatedly, and long after the International day of Love.

Why we love it: A quick rundown on the basics of BDSM (Bondage, Discipline or Domination, Submission or Sadism, and Masochism). Essentially, it's a form of sex play that relies on inequality of power — and, for some, can be a source of intense pleasure. A flogger is a good way to test whether playful punishment is something you both enjoy — especially as it calls for a fairly small financial investment and aids the take-up of the roles of dom/sub. With its array of faux-leather tassels, this luxe flogger by LELO spreads the spanking sensations far and wide.
Why we love it: Is defying gravity the one kink you're yet to explore? Or maybe you're a Sex and The City fan who remembers Samantha — our favourite sex-positive fictional icon — declaring this as one item on her bedroom bucket list. Either way, you don't need a red room or a spacious 5th Avenue apartment to try it out, as this (best-selling) sex swing takes seconds to assemble, simply sliding over any internal door. Made to hold up to 308lbs and fitted with adjustable wrist and thigh straps, the positional possibilities are endless. We love that this is an accessible (and seriously affordable) way to experiment with light BDSM and domination.
Why we love it: Gifting your partner one of the best sex toys is always going to be a good idea — after all, you're offering them pinpointed pleasure on demand. However, unless you've had an in-depth convo on the subject, it can be hard working out exactly what style of teaser to gift your significant other: would they prefer the oral-style sensations of a clit sucker, or the intense power packed into a wand vibrator?
Thankfully, this bundle includes both, as well as the MIKI internal vibrator, offering 10 teasing patterns and a gently rippled arm for added stimulation. Yep, all of her key erogenous zones (nipples, clitoris and G-spot) get some attention with this kit — and key, considering that, for only 18.4% of women, intercourse alone is sufficient to orgasm.
Why we love it: Your concern for the environment doesn't necessarily have to take a backseat in the bedroom. The Natural Love Company — a family-run affair founded in Cornwall — aims to deliver environmentally responsible bedroom accessories to the masses. For example, this beginner-friendly BDSM kit features a vegan cork leather blindfold and lead (offering the perfect introduction to power play), as well as a glass butt plug, a full-sized bottle of the brand's Simply Lube Aloe Vera to minimise friction and its Simply Toy Cleaner to freshen up post-foreplay. But our favourite pick? The Nepeta Vibrating Love Egg, crafted from recycled ocean plastic offers 10 unique rhythms to take you over the edge from the inside, otherwise known as your G-spot.
