Shunga was recommended to us by sensuality expert, "Ms. V," as Alma Vasic is known to her fans and customers. Ms. V is the owner of Southern California-based retailer F Street, and she is an advisor on all things in the world of human sexuality and accessories that enhance lovemaking for couples, men and women.

This year, Monsters and Critics went high and low and found the coolest gifts that you can buy your special sweetie baby this Valentine's Day.

Keeping in mind that we love finding small businesses who make cruelty-free items, we were very excited to be introduced to Shunga Erotic Art couples products. 

Shunga was recommended to us by sensuality expert, "Ms. V," as Alma Vasic is known to her fans and customers. Ms. V is the owner of Southern California-based retailer F Street, and she is an advisor on all things in the world of human sexuality and accessories that enhance lovemaking for all kinds of couples.

Ms V tipped us to her best-selling Valentine's gift line, Shunga Art, a Canadian made assortment of product which feature massage creams, erotic candles, male and female herbal supplements and many more items.

Here are some stunningly packaged Valentine's Day ideas for your lover boy or girl from Ms. V, who shares her favorite Shunga Art recommendations for fun intimacy delights that won't break the bank, and are completely safe (and some even edible).

Shunga means "Image of Spring", and the packaging reflects these erotic Japanese works of art, made from the 16th to 18th centuries, by reputable painter of the Ukiyo-e (floating world) period.

This explicit, yet beautifully rendered art taught the Japanese bourgeoisie the art of foreplay, sexual positioning, and even proper hygiene.

Shunga Soft Moves Massage Cream - Vanilla Fetish

Lightweight and moisturizing, this cream is loaded with natural ingredients like honey and vitamin E, and is designed to warm up the touch of the skin between two bodies, as it leaves a slightly sweet taste. Vanilla Fetish is not too overpowering, just right and a wonderful item to use for those Valentine's "backrubs."

Massage Candle - Caress by Candlelight 

Setting ther mood is crucial, and this delicious smelling candle serves two purposes: Mood lighting and safe warm wax for a sensual massage.  Light the candle and let it burn for 20 minutes, a subtle aphrodisiac aroma will fill the room. Extinguish and pour the melted wax in the palm of the hand and gently spread onto the skin (the oil will be warm, but will not burn).
