Let’s Talk About It… Without the Awkwardness

April 18 marks National Anal Sex Day, and we’re here to normalize the conversation and help couples (or solos!) explore confidently.

Hey, it doesn't matter if you're a beginner or an experienced adventurer, this is your invitation to elevate your pleasure and deepen your connection—with comfort, safety, and premium glide from Swiss Navy.

Because let’s be honest—anal play shouldn’t feel intimidating.

With the right products, mindset, and a little know-how, it can be incredibly pleasurable and empowering. 

Hey, nice butt


Why Explore Anal Play?

For many couples, anal play brings:

  • Heightened sensations – due to the dense nerve endings around the anus
  • New intimacy dynamics – trust and communication deepen with this exploration
  • Spicy variety – mixing things up can spark new excitement in your relationship

Whether you’re in a long-term relationship or simply exploring your body, anal play can offer a new avenue of pleasure and self-discovery.


Step 1: Comfort is Key

Before anything else, comfort (both emotional and physical) is non-negotiable. Communicate with your partner. Go slow. Laugh if you need to. Stay relaxed. 

And don’t forget the golden rule: Lube is not optional. It’s essential.


Step 2: Choose the Right Lube

Swiss Navy offers several premium options that help take the “uh-oh” out of anal play:

✔️ Swiss Navy Premium Silicone Lubricant – long-lasting, velvety smooth, and never sticky
✔️ Swiss Navy Anal Lubricant – thicker formula, designed for maximum glide and cushion
✔️ Swiss Navy Flavored Lubes – for those looking to explore beyond just touch

Pro tip: Avoid water-based lubes for anal unless they’re thickened—friction is higher back there, and silicone-based options tend to perform better for longer.


Step 3: Take It Slow, Stay Playful

Start with external touch, massage, or even a vibrating toy. Explore pressure and sensations gradually. Patience is pleasure’s best friend. 

Think of it like this: You’re not racing to a destination—you’re discovering a whole new map.


Step 4: Cleanliness & Prep Matter

Feeling clean = feeling confident. Take a warm shower, try a gentle cleansing routine, and have fresh towels nearby.

Swiss Navy also offers Toy & Body Cleaner to keep your accessories fresh and ready.


Sexual Health Tip

It's simple really: Use a condom during anal sex (especially with toys or multiple partners) and always clean between switching areas. Safety keeps the good times going.
