Sponsor Highlight: Esmerelda
Pleasure, simplified.
At CLIMAX, we love brands that are reimagining what sexual wellness looks and feels like — and Esmerelda does exactly that. Born from the belief that pleasure should be simple, safe, and shame-free, this Canadian, woman-owned brand helps people reconnect with their bodies through curiosity and confidence.
What sets Esmerelda apart is its approachable, education-first philosophy. Every toy is backed by trusted sex educators and paired with clear, thoughtful guidance — from product tutorials to their playful “Find Your Match” toy quiz. Their mission is simple: make pleasure less intimidating and more intuitive, one conversation (and orgasm) at a time.
A Closer Look: The Charlotte
If Esmerelda had a muse, it would be The Charlotte — a multi-sensory vibrator that perfectly embodies the brand’s spirit of playful discovery and empowerment.
Named after Charlotte York from Sex and the City (yes, that iconic “Rabbit” scene), this toy captures the “Oh…” moment when curiosity turns into confidence. With three interchangeable heads and a flexible, body-safe design, The Charlotte invites users to explore at their own pace — whether it’s their first toy or a return to self-discovery.
It’s not just about pleasure — it’s about permission. Permission to be curious, to play, and to feel good without guilt.
Education at the Heart
Beyond toys, Esmerelda is expanding its Sex Educator Directory, a growing hub that highlights diverse voices in sexual health and education. The goal? To create an online space where anyone can learn something new about pleasure, intimacy, and self-connection — whether through expert features, how-to guides, or personal stories.
It’s their way of amplifying the people doing the real work of helping others feel safe and seen in their bodies — and building a more open, informed, and compassionate culture of pleasure.
Pleasure as Wellness
For Esmerelda, pleasure isn’t indulgence — it’s insight.
“Understanding what pleasure means to you is a form of knowledge, and knowledge is power,” they remind us. Knowing what feels good, what relieves stress, or what helps you drop into your body supports every other part of your life.
Pleasure is physical, yes — but it’s also emotional, mental, and deeply human. It’s one of the most natural forms of wellness there is.
