11 best sex toy advent calendars of 2023 to elevate your self-care game
The number of sex toy advent calendars on the market has been burgeoning over the past couple of years, each designed to empower you, elevate your self-care routine and make you feel closer to your partner. Regular orgasms are a crucial part of a holistic wellness routine, after all - acting as a mood-booster, natural pain killer and sleep enhancer.
Let's face it: nothing beats a month of gifts – but if you've done the whole beauty advent calendar, wine advent calendar or gin advent calendar thing – the best sex toy advent calendars are here to serve up something a little more sensual.
In 2022, the hottest options contained everything from rabbit vibrators to clitoral vibrators, lingerie, lubricant and sex games – and sex toy shops like Lovehoney, Satisyfer and Ann Summers all got in on the action. While the best sex toy advent calendars of 2023 haven't yet dropped (watch this space – we'll be updating this page as soon as they do), we can take a look at erotic advent calendars of Christmas past to give us an idea of what to expect.
If you really can't wait? You could snap up last year's Lovehoney Rose Sex Toy advent calendar which never sold out and is, subsequently, reduced by over £100 (!) right now. It's centred around (yep, you guessed it) the Rose vibrator for women, which is worth £54.99 alone and uses Pleasure Air Technology to deliver the ultimate contactless orgasmic sensation. There are 10 suction functions, four speeds and six patterns to personalise your play, and it's crafted from velvety-soft silicone which is safe even for sensitive skin.
Elsewhere, you'll be treated to a G-spot dildo, G-spot vibrator, butt plug, bullet vibrator and many other surprises behind each of the twelve doors.
