" 1. Buy some new, sexy undies. Yes, Bridget-style hold-everything-in-pants are practical and have their place, but they aren&amp;#039;t going to make you feel uber-gorgeous. Some lacy, matching lingerie might just do the job. 2. Try something new, whether it&amp;#039;s incorporating a blindfold, a sex toy or trying out a different position. Neither of you have expectations, so you can experiment together \u2013 and if it goes a bit wrong, laugh about it. 3. Don&amp;#039;t turn off the lights, but use lamps or candles to create soft, flattering mood lighting \u2013 you&amp;#039;ll feel more confident knowing you&amp;#039;re not under a glaringly bright light, and the room will have a sensual feel. 4. Take the lead \u2013 don&amp;#039;t wait for your partner to initiate sex every time. If you make the first move, it&amp;#039;s more likely to be when you&amp;#039;re feeling sexier, which bodes well. Plus, your partner will feel totally wanted. 5. And don&amp;#039;t always wait until bedtime \u2013 an afternoon session at a weekend could be much better. 6. Talk to each other before or after sex \u2013 if you&amp;#039;re concerned about your body, sex positions or anything else, discuss it with your partner. If he or she knows about your worries, they can try and help. And it might uncover some of their insecurities too, which you can help them overcome, making sex better all-round. Win.  7. Put on clean sheets and clean your bedroom \u2013 if your environment feels right, you will too. 8. Only sleep with someone you totally trust \u2013 someone who you can talk to and feel 100% comfortable with.  9. Have a shower. Knowing your body is clean will make you feel more comfortable letting someone else explore it. 10. Try to look at yourself in the same way you look at your sexual partner. Do you scrutinize their every lump, bump and hair? Absolutely not. So don&amp;#039;t do it to yourself. The Smile Makers collection of vibrators is available online or at Superdrug.
