Epiphany, The Female-Led Brand Putting Clit Arousal First
2 Min ReadThe quest to find the elusive clitoris is well-documented in the annals of the modern day internet - and like all good jokes, it’s rooted in some truth. Safely hidden in its hood until the time of peak arousal, the “clit” can be hard to find for inexperienced lovers (while we’re here, let’s normalize the process of learning and communicating during intimacy!). Yet that doesn’t mean it isn’t still the star of the show for the female orgasm. Today, let’s talk about a female-led, formulated, and tested brand that is putting the clit front and center with their arousal serum: Epiphany.
Founded by Kelly Pigeon, Epiphany has spent their time and money perfecting one key product to fill the gap in clitoral lubricants. Just like vaginal lubrication is a game changer for penetrative sex, clitoral lubrication helps increase pleasurable sensations during stimulation. But Epiphany didn’t stop there - they formulated a serum that promotes arousal itself. Let’s get into it.
Clit Arousal Serum
This product is one of the first of its kind. More than just a lubricant, it has active ingredients that heighten sensitivity and invoke new and pleasurable sensations during sex. And yes, that’s sex with or without a partner - Epiphany recommends their product for solo play as well.
This Clit Arousal Serum has three main active ingredients: propylene glycol for a gentle warming sensation, vanillyl butyl ether for a spicier note, and menthyl lactate, which creates a tingly sensation at the site of application. The formula is described as silky and light, never greasy or tacky. Special considerations have been taken to make sure that not only is the formula pH-balanced, but that the balance can be maintained over longer-term storage.
Now let’s dive into the review
Starting with the outside, the packaging features a vibrant orange shade that is both fun and inviting. Their slogan, "The Pleasure is Mine," displayed on the side of the box is something we took a particular love and interest in. Can you guess what it reminds us of?
When applying the product, be cautious when you squeeze, as it dispenses quickly from the tube. As stated on the packaging, this formula is neither sticky or greasy. It offers a perfect texture that resembles a water-based lube.
Once you apply the product to your clitoris, there is a warm and tingly feeling that isn't powering, but softly builds. To us, it almost resembles that peaceful sensation that follows an orgasm. In short, this is definitely a product to add to your list!
