4 Ways Coconut Oil Can Spice Up Your Sex Life
Coconut oil is currently the oil on everyone’s lips with the whole world raving about the countless ways it can be used, from cooking ingredient to beauty product to household cleaner. Now our much-loved au naturel product has just crossed over from the kitchen to the bedroom and coconut guru and author of Going Coconuts, Brynley King, is here to enlighten you with her top reasons for why coconut oil for sex something you have to try.
1. Personal lubricant
Free of harmful chemicals and synthetic preservatives that may irritate those sensitive nether regions, coconut oil makes for a great inexpensive personal lubricant. Oil lubricants also provide a hell of lot more staying power than water-based lubes for those more, shall we say, lengthy sessions, and even celebrities such as Miranda Kerr have hinted at using the multi-purpose oil for her bedroom activities.
FYI: In some cases oil-based lubricants can break down latex condoms making them ineffective. Opt for polyurethane condoms instead when using coconut oil for sex!
2. Increases sex drive
If your man is leaving you less than satisfied in this area then it may be time to slip a dash of coconut oil into your specialty Sunday morning smoothies he loves so much. A large portion of men and women coco-nutters swear by the oil for improving their libidos and increasing sexual desire, which may be thanks to antioxidants in the oil which help combat free radicals that can cause a lowered libido. To really up the ante in the bedroom stakes be sure to incorporate at least 3 tablespoons of the good stuff into your diet each day.
3. Massage oil
This is a no-brainer. Smells good, tastes good, super moisturising – why wouldn’t you want to slather it all over yourself and your partner. A sensual massage is the perfect way to create intimacy and relieve stress, and unlike other massage oils, coconut oil won’t stain your sheets. If you really want to get crafty, try mixing coconut oil with raw cacao powder and honey for a deliciously naughty, yet healthy, edible body paint.
4. Fights off yeast infections
This isn’t sexy in the slightest but along with what it can do for you and your main squeeze, coconut oil can also be used to remedy the dreaded candida yeast infection which sometimes shows up “down there”. The powerful antifungal, antiviral and antimicrobial properties in the oil mean it’s a great natural solution that can be used internally, by eating a few tablespoons every day, and externally, by giving that area some extra attention during that massage mentioned earlier. Try the treatment for at least a week for noticeable improvement and you may be able to skip that embarrassing trip to the local pharmacy. Hooray!

The two in one orgasm
Sex experts believe we experience two types of orgasmic sensations-the first is a sharp twinge that occurs when the clitoris or base of the penis is stimulated; the second is a warm melting feeling that happens when the inside of the vagina or the shaft of the penis is aroused to climatic heights.You can experience both types, one after the other in a single love fest. How? He caresses your clitoris until it’s almost too sensitive to touch; then he moves his attention to your vagina. Once you are feeling totally aroused, he moves back to your clitoris. Meanwhile, you are doing the same with his penis, moving from the base to the shaft to the head, and back again. Experience an hour of climatic bliss.
For a more intense orgasm, lie on your back with your head lower than the rest of your body, either by lifting your hips with your hands, with the help of some supporting pillows under your hips, or by positioning yourself so that your head hangs slightly off the bed. This increases blood flow to your brain and changes your breathing, both of which can add to arousal.
