aftercare questions and other news
Happy May! Outdoor fucking is said to start today- do you have any plans?
Stinging nettle season is wrapping up
We're coming to the end of prime nettle season, and I've made a few different videos with them this year. If any of them have inspired you with your own ideas and you'd like a custom video, let's make plans soon, before the sting becomes less potent!
A twitter friend who's a pro domme reached out to me recently with questions about nettle play, and I thought I'd share some of the information from that conversation with you. I do have a blog post which discusses nettle play, but she was more interested in hearing about what aftercare, if any, I thought was necessary.
Nettles do cause a rash (called urticaria, from the genus name urtica) but in my experience it fades quickly over a day or two and doesn't need much care. (Everyone's skin is different, though, so it's worth doing a test on a small patch of skin before you go wild with them!) The skin is pierced by those stinging hairs, so I treat it like I would any area of slightly broken skin: I make sure to keep it clean, and I keep the skin moisturized with simple products that I know I don't react to. This isn't the time to try out a new lotion, but a bit of vaseline might be good. I have a body oil I like which is usually what I reach for to keep my skin hydrated and healing quickly. The side note I mentioned to my friend related to keeping the area clean is just a comfort tip- because there's histamine involved, hot water will make the pain temporarily worse! That might be a fun thing to play with, but it also might not be what you want when aftercare is the goal.
On the topic of aftercare…
A fan of my videos asked recently if I ever make clips documenting how I take care of my genitals once I’m done hurting them, and with very few exceptions, I really haven’t!
Is that something you’d be interested in too, either from an educational perspective or because you’d enjoy seeing my pussy receiving gentle soothing attention after all it goes through? Let me know!
A small change to my website
I've just added a section to my home page to display kind words from fans and peers! It means a lot to me to get this feedback, and it makes me smile that now I'll be reminded of it regularly.
I’m now on Fansly
The other bit of news I wanted to share is that I've been trying out a new-to-me platform, Fansly! If you follow my twitter you might have already seen me mention it there, but I wanted to wait and see whether the site was working well for me before I mentioned it in my newsletter.
I'm particularly enjoying how easy to use Fansly's chat system is, so if you'd like to talk with me, that's a great way to do it!
I hope you're enjoying the springtime (or autumn, if you're in the southern hemisphere) and I hope you have at least a few moments of sexy joy every day!
