About VaVaVooom & Sexual Wellness

PROVIDING High Quality Sex WELLNESS Products SINCE 2008

Love enjoys knowing everything about you; desire needs mystery. Love likes to shrink the distance that exists between me and you; desire is energized by it. If intimacy grows through repetition and familiarity, eroticism is numbed by repetition. It thrives on the mysterious, the novel, and the unexpected. Love is about having; desire is about wanting. An expression of longing, desire requires ongoing elusiveness. It is less concerned with where it has already been than passionate about where it can still go. But too often, as couples settle into the comforts of love, they cease to fan the flame of desire. They forget that fire needs air.
— Esther Perel, Mating in Captivity: Reconciling the Erotic and the Domestic

Desire drives all human activity. At the heart of desire is a lifelong need for connection and new experience. Individuals are awakening to their own desire, and claiming their sovereign rights to fully embodied sensuality & pleasure.

From one’s own locus of control, accessing erotic energy revitalizes in so many beneficial ways. Health and relationships flourish.

With self-acceptance comes self-discovery, which expands all possibilities! Through playful exploration, meaning and depth is added to your daily life. With boundaries securely intact, limitations dissolve. So…shamelessly, own your erotic nature and embrace your vivacious spirit!

At VaVaVooom, you are entering an intentionally safe space which has been consciously & carefully curated with the highest standards for quality. A softly refined aesthetic, with an appreciation of the art & poetry of sexuality, that we hope you will find it warm & welcoming.

Many of the models you see in our unretouched editorial apparel & lingerie images are not professional models, they are women who revel in their natural shapes and personas. Some of the apparel & lingerie we offer is eco-consciously produced in local small craft settings.

All of our sexual wellness products are specially selected - we offer only those items which are manufactured with body-safe materials & ingredients. Many of our adult toys originate in Europe. Because the adult product industry in the USA is not monitored by the FDA, we have made it our mission to identify sex toys that are vetted to be BODY-SAFE.

Most of our carefully selected toys have a year or more manufacturer’s warranties, and are expected to last beyond that. These items may be more expensive than products found in the typical sex shop in the USA, but your sexual health is very important to us. We don’t carry intimate items that contain known unsafe materials, such as highly adulterated silicones, petroleum based plastics, or lubricants with ingredients known to be problematic, such as parabens. We carefully label certain products with advisories for highly sensitive individuals.

Sexuality is conditioned within a culture that traditionally devalues feminine and non-traditional aspects of human sexuality. Too many adult product sites are designed stereo-typically with assumptions about sexuality, often without sensitivity to what many persons might actually want. You are deserving of pleasure without exposure to some of the vexing contradictions that some other adult oriented websites pose. We advocate for a gender expansive philosophy and promote conscious, consensual sexuality across the human spectrum.
