{pp}Sexy, Savvy and Seductively South African

Whet Personal Products cc, launched their new 50ml flip-top tube, Whet Personal lubricant range at a sparkling event at the Glen Boutique Hotel in Cape Town last Thursday. Oysters, sushi, sparkling wine and the sultry voice of Jazz singer Lucrecia Rodrigues set the mood for the evening. A pink tinged sunset swathed Table Mountain, a glorious backdrop that complemented the seductive brand. Guests, including celebrities and media were seen leaving late in the with massive smiles on their faces as they collected their goody bags, including samples of Whet Personal Lubricant, which they revealed they were “eager to try out”. Keynote speaker, strategic marketer, Terry Levin commented that although "we are surrounded by a kind of continual sexual white noise from our media 24/7, open public discourse about sexual matters, such as this evening, are unheard of. Yet it is products such as this, which have their very roots in very unsexy surgical products, that should now be openly promoted for their ability to fulfil claims such as increasing sensation during condom use, reducing the friction which can encourage the spread of sexually transmitted diseases and empowering women who no longer have to be dictated to about their own sexual lives.

By choosing to use, stock or promote a sensually South African product such as Whet Personal lubricants you are stimulating not just yourself or your partner, but the very economy on which we depend and thereby helping to channel some of the multibillion global sexual accessory market into our region. Products such as these no longer have to be associated with red light district or sleazy high street interfaces, but can now be the over-the- counter accessory of choice for an empowered and sensually advantaged consumer in a very underrepresented category. Whet Personal lubricants are available directly from Whet Personal Products cc and selected retail outlets and pharmacies.
