Liberator Fascinator Throw - Regular Size, Royal Blue

In royal blue, the Liberator Fascinator Throw is a sex blanket with a bit of personality. It's the brightest colour in the Fascinator line-up, a vivid blue microvelvet that looks like a statement throw on white or grey bedding. Under that soft face sits a moisture barrier, so massage oil, lube and other liquids end up in the blanket instead of your mattress.

A massage-night throw

Oil massage is one of the messiest things you can do in bed, and one of the easiest to plan for. Lay the throw flat with the long side running down the bed, have your partner lie face down in the middle, and keep the oil bottle on a saucer within reach. Warm the oil in your hands before it touches skin. When the massage turns into something more, there's no need to move: the throw is already doing its job. Choose a scent from our massage oils and build the evening around it.

Light enough to carry

Liberator describes the Fascinator as lightweight and discreet for travel. The Regular size folds down to roughly the bulk of a bath towel, which is fine for a road trip or a weekend away by car. For flying or a small carry-on, the royal blue travel throw is the easier pack at 53 × 36 inches, and the royal blue mini is smaller still.

Where a sex blanket fits in your routine

Some people keep the throw on the bed full-time as part of the décor; others fold it into a drawer with their toys. Blue works either way. Folded on a bench or an ottoman, it looks deliberate. Spread out, it marks the "play zone" so you're never tempted to skip it and regret the laundry later. It also works on the floor, a sofa or a guest-room bed.

Toys, lube and the nightstand

Long toy sessions with plenty of lube leave drips in two places: under you and wherever the toys rest between rounds. The throw covers the first. For the second, a Fascinator Toy Pad in indigo is the closest blue in the range and keeps wooden furniture free of rings. Lay a toy down on the pad, not the throw, if it still has silicone lube on it, so the blanket stays softer between washes.

Who it suits

Royal blue is the pick for bright, modern bedrooms and for anyone who wants their throw to look like a deliberate design choice. If you prefer something that disappears into the room, the darker shades are quieter.

Microvelvet against the skin

The outer fabric is 100% polyester microvelvet, with a fine, soft pile. Warm and cosy, it never feels crinkly. Nothing plasticky touches you; the moisture barrier is sealed inside, so to the hand it feels like any good throw.

Washing and drying

It's machine-washable. Oil comes out more easily if you wash soon after use, in cold water with a dash of washing-up liquid added to your usual detergent. Wash a vivid blue with darks for the first few cycles, and dry it fully before folding.
