REVIEW: Babeland NYC

The Babeland store was one of the main attractions I wanted to visit while we were on vacation in NYC. We visited the one in SoHo but they also have locations in the Lower East Side, Brooklyn and one in Seattle, Washington. If you are in those areas, I suggest checking them out.
When we first walked in, I had no idea what we were going to buy, I just knew I wanted to see what the store was like and what kind of service we received. My first thought was that it was a little small but most of the stores and restaurants we went into were so I can’t hold that against them. In the limited space they did have, they made sure to pack it with the very best products including some from the Babeland line. I like how the store is laid out and everyone was really friendly.
I was impressed by the service. As soon as we walked in the door, we were greeted and then asked if we could be helped in finding anything in particular. We didn’t since we were just browsing but had we needed help later, someone was always available to ask questions to.
We ended up choosing the We-Vibe II. I have wanted this toy for so long and you should have seen the look on my face when my man suggested we get it. I was thrilled! When we checked out, the cashier asked if we had any water based lubricant to use with the toy. I told her no since we were traveling I didn’t pack it so she walked me over to a shelving unit that had several kinds laid out. She asked questions to determine which kind would be the best for us. I told her I didn’t want anything too slippery or sticky so she let me try the Liquid Silk Lubricant and I loved it. Check out my review here.
I was so glad she asked because I would not have been able to use my toy until we got home or would have ran into the drug store and ended up with something too sticky once again. My only complaint is that their prices are high in the store so if you can shop on their online store, that is the cheaper option. I probably wouldn’t have been able to pick this product on my own though so I still benefited from visiting the store in person.
