Thinking about trying water play this summer? Here is a practical, safety-first guide for pools, baths, and showers, plus toys to pack. Shop Luvland online.

Summer in South Africa tends to revolve around water in one form or another. Backyard pools fill up again, load shedding evenings end in candlelit baths, and long, hot afternoons practically beg for a cool shower before dinner. It makes sense that water finds its way into people's fantasies too. There is something genuinely appealing about the weightlessness, the warmth, and the novelty of trying something outside the usual bedroom setup.

Water play can absolutely be part of a healthy, adventurous sex life, but it comes with a few practical considerations that are worth understanding before you get started. This guide walks through where water intimacy tends to work well, what to watch out for, and a few products worth having on hand if you want to give it a try this summer.

Discover the real health benefits of foreplay for women 

Women's Month is about more than recognising achievement in the boardroom, it's also a chance to talk openly about women's health, including the parts of wellness that don't always make it into the conversation. Sexual wellness is one of them, and foreplay deserves far more credit than it usually gets. It's not just a warm-up act before "the main event" because for many women, it's where the real benefits of intimacy actually happen.

If you've ever wondered why foreplay matters so much, or you're looking for ways to improve intimacy in your relationship this Women's Month, here's what the research actually says plus a few intimacy accessories worth having on hand.

 

Learn the origins of International Orgasm Day, the science behind female pleasure, and how to close the orgasm gap. 

Every year on August 8th, the world marks International Orgasm Day, a holiday with a surprisingly personal origin story. It began in 2007 in a small Brazilian town, when a local councilman publicly apologised to his wife for an imbalance in pleasure in their relationship and proposed a day dedicated to correcting it. What started as one man's gesture struck a nerve far beyond his hometown, and the idea spread across South America, Europe, and eventually the world, growing into a global movement for sexual wellness, education, and equality in the bedroom.

It's easy to treat a day like this as a novelty. But underneath the cheeky name is a genuinely important conversation about health, intimacy, and self care for women's pleasure — one that's still overdue in a lot of relationships.
