4US Vibe Makes the Grade

By Kathy McGuire • Mar 2nd, 2010 • Category: Blog

Sometimes, adding a vibrator to couples play can be bit of a challenge.  You finally get your partner comfortable with using a vibe in the sack, and then you end up spending the night making promises of what’s to come, “This is going to be really awesome” as you try to untwist your legs and [...]

By Kathy McGuire • Mar 1st, 2010 • Category: Blog

We’re so pleased to have The Erotic Readers and Writers Association include our products in their sex toy reviews.

By Kathy McGuire • Feb 5th, 2010 • Category: Blog

For those of you who love the sensation of having a vibrator to their nipples, but find traditional vibrating nipple clamps too “clampy” (i.e. pinching your nipples too hard), Incoqnito’s Droplet Nipple Vibrator might be perfect for you.
The Droplet isn’t your usual nipple vibe, but a rose, gold, or silver necklace that slips around [...]



A Pendant’s Subtle Eroticism

By Kathy McGuire • Feb 5th, 2010 • Category: Blog

I’ll freely admit it, the Blade Pendant Necklace is my favorite of the Incoqnito line.
The cut glass blade tucks neatly into a black wood case for a simple, elegant pendant on a thin silver chain.

Lambskin leather cuffs, vibrating nipple clamps, or a glass blade may seem like unabashedly obvious kink equipment, but  Incoqnito has taken these kink “classics” and combined them with the suggestive, discreet qualities of haute couture.
Created by industrial design artists outside of the larger sex industry, Incoqnito’s leather cuffs and blade pendant necklace flawlessly evolve from [...]
