This blindfold is part of the Spartacus Crave line. I did a review recently concerning their Crave Wrist Restraints and loved them so much that I bought more of the set. It's true I have no self control. Well, I tried to refrain, but alas, that burning hole in my pocket got the best of me and I broke down and bought the Crave Blindfold. Bottom line: I am happy with my choice.

Here is why:
Design:
Exterior: Violet colored, fine-grained, soft buttery leather.

Interior: 1 cm" tall black shag faux fur.

Features:
Zero out of the box smell.
Contrasting black stitching.
Solid construction*.
Stretchable elastic head band.
Soft faux fur lining.
Aesthetically pleasing.
Comfortable.

*The band is connected in between the leather and the fur, which is then stitched into place. Menaing it should NOT come loose- ever.


Measurements:
Elastic band: 13.5" Across laying flat and 31" stretched until taunt.
Mask: 9" across the mask laying flat. 3" tall, 1.5" across widest past of nose bridge opening and 2" across each eye area towards the bottom.

Cleaning:
Cleaning is simple. SPOT CLEAN, with soapy water via saddle soap or other leather friendly soaps and hang to dry or lay it out flat. You can recondition with something like Pecard Leather Dressing. Using a leather dressing will keep the leather supple and flexible. DO NOT wash this in your washer and dryer. You will ruin it.

Packaging:
Basic clam shell, no instructions/paperwork other then a cardboard insert.


Use:
Get lost in the moment (they surely will be), and go with what feels right. Find whatever is really turning YOU on about the scene and work with that. Just remember that you are in control of the whole situation, and are responsible for your bottom.
You can always try some sensation play, light tickling (I personally am not into laughing insatiably during sexy time but the light finger/feather stuff drives me nuts), tease them, rub on their body, do things that will stimulate their imagination. Whatever you damn well please too, if you are a woman and want to ride him till he's about to explode then hop off and start teasing him, drive him nuts with it! Obviously this kind of play can go both ways Man on Woman/Woman on Man/Man on Man/Woman on Woman, etc.
Last but not least, you can always keep them blindfolded don't say anything. It's really fun and feels amazing to have no idea what's about to happen!

Personal comments:
It works as advertised "Don't be afraid of the dark. prepare for wherever the night may talk you. Satisfy your craving for tantalizing excitement with the new Crave Blindfold by Spartacus."
Yep, I am A) Not afraid of the dark. B) Usually prepared for wherever the night takes me (Bed?). C) I satisfy my cravings almost always (It's that self control thing again...).

The only complaints I have, is that 1) I can catch a glimpse of light through the top of the nose bridge *if* the room is brightly lit. If the lights are dim or off I can see nothing.
and 2) is that I worry that eventually the elastic will be stretched out making the mask useless. But at under $20.00 I am being realistic and not expecting to last forever. If I get a few good years out of it I will be happy.
Outside of those small complaints, Its wonderful. The faux fur is short enough that it doesn't bother my eyes if they are open while wearing the blindfold, and better yet, it's super comfortable.
