Freaky Friday: Sleep Naked

Believe it or not but sleeping naked has great health benefits! Obviously it could heighten your love life but it will also help with your overall physical and mental well-being!

According to Sleep.com article, "sleeping naked increases feel-good hormones in your brain, strengthen emotional ties and heighten both desire and intimacy between you and your partner."

The following are just some of the benefits of sleeping naked:

• Releases hormones. Skin-to-skin contact releases oxytocin, a hormone known to promote sexual arousal and feelings of bonding, reduce stress hormones, increase trust, lower heart rate and raise overall sex drive. With all-night skin contact from head to toe, you will get a nice flow of this very useful hormone.
• Creates a stronger bond. Skin contact creates more than just useful hormones – it creates a bond! Increase the sense of bond between you and your partner and feel closer together than ever before. Remember, increased closeness encourages greater sex.
• Induce desire. Sleeping naked helps couples overcome relationship obstacles as the intimacy can close the gap when you feel separated from your partner.
• Look more erotic. Sleeping naked will become an open invitation to sex as no man can resist his wife curled up on one side without any clothes.
• Feel better. 30 minutes to an hour of love making per day can make you feel more satisfied with your life, fitter, healthier and just plain old better!

Having a partner isn't a criterion for sleeping naked! It can also allow the body to relax peacefully increasing your chances of being more energetic and alert the following day. It could also play a role in improving your self confidence!

And to add a in a little Green to this Sexy tip...sleeping naked will also keep you cool therefore you don't have to keep you AC on freezing or wash pajamas! Saving energy and water! Win win :)

Happy Friday! Have a great weekend!

Peace, Lovin, Swipes!

Well, according to TiVo's recent Turn on the Love survey, television and technology can actually be used to improve relationships – with some ground rules, of course.

The difference between Biodegradable and Compostable

Now-a-days…we live in, what I call, “The Green Age.” More and more people are jumping on the “green” wagon and are trying to do what they can to reduce their carbon footprint. These new green-newbie’s are transitioning and unless you’re a “green-a-holic”, you may not be familiar with a lot of the “green”-words. Here at Swipes Lovin Wipes, we stand by our claims, two terms of which cause a little confusion at times! So today we’re going to break down the difference between—Biodegradable and Compostable.

Biodegradable

Let’s start off with a pretty common word…Biodegradable. Some of us learned that word in High School…well at least that’s the first time I remember hearing it. My definition of “biodegradable” was anything that is natural enough to easily degrade and become one with the earth again (without causing any issues). I’m sure I’m close but let’s look at the actual definition. According to dictionary.com, Biodegradable means:

           

            Capable of being decomposed by biological agents, especially bacteria.

Many items are biodegradable but that doesn’t make it good for the environment. Biodegradation can happen over a period of days or hundreds of years—and that makes the difference between what is “good” or “bad” for the environment.  The more natural the item is the faster it will biodegrade. Essentially biodegradable products should break down into water, carbon dioxide, and biomass in a reasonable amount of time. For example an apple core will never biodegrade in a landfill but take 2 weeks in a backyard compost, a matter of days in a industrial composter, and 8 weeks in a ocean. Regular plastic cups will never biodegrade in a landfill, there’s an unknown amount of time on how long it would take in backyard compost or in an industrial composter. But we do know, plastic is very hard to breakdown, so much so, that once it’s in the ocean it goes through photodegradation (breaking down plastic into smaller pieces) and turns into a trash island for about 450 years! Now that’s a big difference!

 Compostable

Compostable products are just like biodegradable products but better! When broken down, rich nutrients are released into the soil called humus, making Compostable products some of the best for the environment. The usual breakdown time for a compostable product is one to four months. These products should be able to become usable compost in a timely manner through an appropriate composting program or facility, or in a home compost pile or device. This compost can then be used for gardening and planting! No harsh chemicals or pesticides to worry about! 

Swipes Lovin Wipes

 Swipes is proud to be both biodegradable and Compostable! Whether you flush our truly flushable wipes down the toilet or compost us in some dirt...will degrade naturally becoming one with the planet!

Until next time...Peace, Lovin, Swipes!

Teagan Shepard gives Swipes Lovin Wipes an honest Review

I recently received a package of Swipes Lovin' Wipes from Swipes in exchange for an honest review. I was not required to give it a positive review.

I found Swipes on Facebook. I knew they were wipes, but not much more than that did I know; I hadn't tried them. I asked them if I could review a pack, and they were more than happy to send me a pack to check out.

Swipes are marketed as wipes to use before and after intimate encounters, but I found that they are more than that. I actually liked how well they cleaned Kiddo's hiney after a stinky, smeary diaper. It only took one wipe, and afterwards his hiney smelled like cucumber, not alcohol and baby powder.

JULY 15, 2011 BY HALEY

Talking about personal hygiene isn’t the most comfortable topic to talk about but it is humane nature. Many females get that “not so fresh feeling” or would like to freshen up the undercarriage before or after intimate moments with their significant others. We know that toilet paper doesn’t cut it, baby wipes aren’t flushable, wash clothes are messy and produces more laundry for us, no thanks. Luckily we have found the solution!

by Eric Wilson on July 12th, 2011

Intended for use before and after “intimate moments”, Swipes Lovin’ Wipes are made from 98% renewable materials. The wipes, which come in either individually wrapped “to go” or 42 count packages, can be flushed down the toilet instead of thrown away in the trash.  In addition to their intended purpose, the wipes can also be used for the following:

personal care wipes

baby and toddler wipes

flushable moist toilet wipes

anti-microbial wipes

glass and window wipes

hand sanitizer wipes

household disinfecting wipes

other surface cleaning wipes

Freaky Friday: To fake it or Not to fake it...that is the question?

Many women have faked an orgasm at some point during their sexual history. But there could be many reasons for faking one...she may not be into it, there could be something on the brain (yes men, I'm sorry to tell you but sometimes even during sex other things cross our mind), or she just can't reach that climax no matter how good it feels.

So the question is: Is it ok to fake it? I mean what harm does it really do? It makes the guy feel good and accomplished. We, women, don't want you to feel bad and maybe we don't want to talk about why we couldn't reach that pivotal point. I mean, it is the nice courteous thing to do, right? But is that, in some weird twisted way...selfish? Should we just let you know that we weren't completely safisfied?

I guess everyone's opinion on it is different. Some guys can probably care less but other's I'm sure want to know why, so they can try and fix the problem...if the problem is indeed them. But do guys really want to know the truth? Would it be as equally enjoyable for them if they knew their partner didn't experience an orgasm?  Most guys are turned on by how much their partner is turned on, so in some cases it could bring the momentum down and definitely could cause some insecurity. And nobody likes an insecure partner! So maybe faking is a good thing for morale purposes!

Sometimes faking could lead to sincerity. Moaning and groaning can help you get in the mood. It's a mental thing. And what started off as fake could actually become real. Just a thought.

Men if you're looking for some tips, I read an article on Askmen.com entitled "4 Tricks To make Her Orgasm" and I can't, 100% without a doubt, say they all will work but hey it's worth a try! And whatever you do make sure Swipes Lovin Wipes are always handy!

To all these questions that I posed, I'm really interested in hearing your feeling and thoughts?

So I'll ask one more time...To fake it or Not to fake it?

 

Kiss me!

Yes it's ok..I'll allow it today because It's International Kissing Day! A trend started in the UK and is now known around the world. Some refer to it as National Kissing Day or just Kissing Day.  

But nontheless, what's better than a kiss? So warm and tender. And today you have an excuse to share your love with the world...or select few!

Peace, Lovin, Swipes!

Quiz: What's Your Passion Personality?

This is probably a little girly..sorry fellas..I got you next time.

But I took the Cosmo Passion Personality Quiz and I thought the results were spot on. Apparently I'm a Simmering Seductress! lol Well...what can I say...I guess I am ;-)

If you're interested in knowing your passion personality go ahead and try it out! Leave a comment and let me know your results!

 

Peace, Lovin, and Swipes!

We're bringing "Sexy Back"....to our Blogs!

Sorry for the cliche but here at the Swipes Lovin Wipes Blog, our goal is to provide you both Sexy and Green tips...and I think we've been giving more green than sexy...so let's talk about Sex shall we? Well here, we prefer to call it "Lovin"!

 

What do you call it?

Keepin' it Sexy and Green for the 4th of July!

It's 4th of July ( Can you believe it? The time is flying this year!) weekend which means there is a lot of traveling, pic-nicing, BBQ-ing and just plain ol' gathering. But remember you're impact on the environment this weekend. Keep it Sexy and Green---maybe stay indoor's with the lights off all weekend...you'll save energy and create your own fireworks! Just remember your Swipes Lovin Wipes!

But if staying inside with the lights off isn't an option, prepare your weekend the greenest way possible. A few weeks ago we gave you tips to a greener summer, check that out and get great BBQing and outdoor suggestions!

Fireworks aren't exactly the most environmentally friendly activity, so chose smart. If you're choosing to set off your own fireworks this year chose ones that are rich in nitrogen, they're a little more expensive but emit less smoke into the air. But an even better idea is to go see a local firework show! They're bigger, better, safer and made for many to share in the the 4th of July tradition! 

Whatever you do this weekend stay safe and remember to use your Swipes!

 

Happy 4th!
