hen buying for the holiday season, stocking products that are seasonally-themed but still carry over after December will maximize sales. Holiday-themed overstock can be difficult to move when everybody is burned out from everything holly and jolly. But wisely curated products can carry appeal long after the season if they offer an exciting experience and versatile usage. With the right attention to merchandising, these holiday-themed products can be a sure investment.

Lingerie

Holiday lingerie is a classic look. Fur-lined red bodysuits like the Sequin Santa Teddy and Garter Belt from Dreamgirl are an always-appreciated mainstay. But some sexy pieces offer a more subtle nod to the holidays, featuring red colors and sparkly sheens without the marabou fur. The Holidaze collection from Magic Silk, for example, takes design cues from satin ribbon ties, making the wearer look like a gift ready to be given any time of the year. Or the Holly thigh-highs from Kix’ies come in a shimmering cranberry color, perfectly fitting in a winter wonderland or anywhere the wearer wants to shine. 

Experiential products

Few gifts are as memorable as the gift of experience. Many companies offer holiday spins on their flavored or scented topicals, using the season to spark sensual massages or oral sex, like GoodHead’s Naughty and Nice 5-Piece Kit of flavored gels, tongue vibes, and other oral sex enhancers. Or Earthly Body’s Hemp Seed Holiday Candle Trio, featuring sweet and earthy scent options of their massage oil candles. 

Similarly, sexual games, calendars and coupon books add holiday themes to their already giftable nature. Little Genie’s Month of Sex game, Creative Conceptions’ Advent-Ure Calendar, and Kheper’s Santa’s Secret Sex Positions Coupons all invoke holiday themes in their intimate gifts. 

Wisely curated products can carry appeal long after the season if they offer an exciting experience and versatile usage. 

But the emphasis in each of these products is “experience” rather than “holiday.” By merchandising these items with Kama Sutra books, massage set, and educational kits, these intimate presents are applicable year-round.

The holidays are a time for intimacy and the right themed products can give customers that extra nudge to indulge. And with the right product selection and merchandising, those items can last long after the season.
