1Full Face

Don't be afraid to get all up in there. “Instead of just using your tongue, see how it feels to use your whole face to pleasure your partner,” says Davis-Fainbloom. “The warmth and texture of a cheek, alongside the gentle pressure of a nose (trust!), can provide a unique and stimulating sensation against the vulva or penis.” If you want to put a little lube on your nose, go to town.

2The Booty

Adding some butt stuff can enhance oral, amp up orgasms, and expand your kinkiness altogether. “See how it feels to put anal beads in your partner and slowly take them out as you give your partner oral pleasure,” says Davis-Fainbloom. For optimal oomph, pull them out one by one at the moment of orgasm. “When timed right, the slow removal of the beads at peak moments can amplify pleasure significantly, creating a memorable and enjoyable exploration of new sensations together.” You can also use anal beads in the vagina—just make sure you have a dedicated V-only pair.

3The Novelist
@LUCYMACARONIInspired by the viral Hysterical Literature Youtube series, watch your partner get overcome by lust by having them read aloud from a book while the other partner gives them oral pleasure. You can choose any book—or a sexy book to up the ante—and see how long they can keep it together. Watching them finally break, despite their best efforts, is what makes this so hot. “As soon as they cannot articulate words properly, switch, and the other partner will receive oral," recommends Davis-Fainbloom.

4The Sensation Player
@LUCYMACARONI“If you want to explore more of your sensuality in the bedroom, this one's for you,” says Drysdale. “Grab a cup of ice and another cup of warm water. Take one cube of ice in your mouth when going down on your partner to allow them to explore the cool sensations. Next, switch it up with the warm water. This allows you to slow it down while heating up your oral game.” (Make sure your partner is down with this beforehand—no one likes surprise ice groin.)

8Tantric Oral
@LUCYMACARONIInstead of focusing on a specific position, try focusing deeply on your partner—particularly their genitals. In Tantra, oral sex is “a tasting of another person’s soul,” says sexual wellness expert Kenya Stevens, founder of Progressive Love Academy. “It’s not about friction or motion; it's about connecting to the genitals.” Start by slowing down and admiring your partner’s body. “Adorn them with organic, food-grade oil such as coconut or avocado, and gaze, rub, speak with and admire the area before going into what you usually think of as oral sex."

If your partner is down to try it, give yourself permission to receive it! “Many vulva owners find they’re more sensitive and have a higher sex drive during their period, making it a prime time for oral fun,” says certified sexpert Isabelle Uren, writer at Bedbible.com. Not ready to dive right into that crimson tide? “Menstrual cups are great options for period sex, as everything is completely contained within the vagina, leaving the whole labia and clitoris free.” If you’re extra worried, try it in the shower to facilitate clean-up

13The Seated 7 and 1
@LUCYMACARONIMake a penis happy by using your mouth and hand together, seven strokes up and then one glorious one down.

15Oral Sex for One, Please
@LUCYMACARONIIf you don’t have a partner around, you can mimic the sensations of oral sex by your own damn self.

Or get down with an Ora, which has a vibrator and a little round ball that rolls around your clit in a kind of infuriatingly delightful way. Choose a pattern, lie back, and allow the ravishment.

"If you want to use a barrier for your rimming but don’t have a dental dam handy, a quick sex hack is to grab some plastic wrap to use instead.

@LUCYMACARONIAnother A+ rim job pose, “it can be a really hot introduction to take a shower together and start practicing some rimming while you’re in there,” says feminist erotic filmmaker Erika Lust. “For beginners, I recommend doing a simple standing position. The receiver can stand up, holding on to the wall if they need to, and the other person can crouch down behind them. I recommend this for people who feel self-conscious or worry that it’s not hygienic or clean.
