Bedroom toys worth having: after doing tons of research (and loving every damn minute of it), we picked our 10 favorite frisky playthings.(Love And Lust)

It's okay, you can admit it: You are curious about sex toys but haven't included them in your randy repertoire because you think they're only for the ultrakinky. Or maybe you have a garden-variety vibrator but are wondering if there are better carnal contraptions to check out. Well, you've come to the right place. Cosmo went on an extensive erotic exploration and found the top bedroom toys out there, including a few that have the power to open up a whole new realm of pleasure for you. Says Gloria G. Brame, PhD, a sexologist in Georgia: "Sex toys are capable of creating sensations that people can't, which intensifies the experience."

If you're ready to try a sexy accessory, you're not alone. In the last few years, sex-toy companies have seen a rapid increase in sales, with women being the majority of their clientele. Web sites such as www.ticklekitty.com, www.babeland.com, and www.pureromance.com make it possible to purchase toys from the privacy of your home. To help you get started, check out this list of titillators. (Good news: You already own some.) All you need is an Internet connection, a well-stocked fridge, and a desire for something different in bed. Whether or not you invite a guy is up to you.

G-Spot Vibrator

These battery-operated stimulators are curved at the top for ultimate G-spot satisfaction. "Insert it about two inches inside you with the curve facing upward," suggests Sadie Allison, author of Toygasms! The Insider's Guide to Sex Toys and Techniques. "Be sure to use a slow, rhythmic pressure instead of a rapid in-and-out movement."

Full-Length Mirror

Place a long mirror horizontally against the wall and do the deed on the floor. "This is the ultimate game of peekagoo because it combines voyeurism with exhibitionism," says Carol Queen, PhD, author of Exhibitionism for the Shy. Tim **, 23, couldn't agree more. "It's hot being able to see everything," he says. "Plus, it's like we're the stars of our own porn video, but it's safer because there's no permanent record."
