LOS ANGELES—2022 Storerotica Lubricant Company of the Year Wicked Sensual Care announced that it has received two 2023 "O" Awards nominations, including the top honor in its product category, Outstanding Lubricant Product or Line.
The innovative sexual health and wellness company’s monthly Retail Superstar Spotlight program also received a nomination for Outstanding Marketing Campaign. The 14th annual awards ceremony, which is scheduled for Wednesday evening, Jan. 4 in Las Vegas as part of the 2023 AVN Novelty Expo (ANE), will recognize outstanding achievements in pleasure products released during the past year.
A clean, water-based lubricant that is slick, sensual, and never sticky, simply Aqua Special Edition received the Outstanding Lubricant Product or Line distinction. Free of Glycerin, Propylene Glycol, and Parabens, simply Aqua Special Edition is vegan, cruelty-free, and enhanced with Wicked Sensual Care’s antioxidant-rich Olive Leaf Extract for its moisturizing and bio-static properties.
In its review, AVN lauded the product’s “gently rainbowed label which identifies it as a supporter of the LGBTQ+ community. Using the hashtag #loveissimplylove to promote its inclusivity, this outstanding lube is perfect for everyone from every background and every gender.”
Each month, Wicked Sensual Care dedicates a percentage of its proceeds to local and global LGBTQ+ organizations and communities.
The ongoing Wicked Sensual Care Retail Employee Spotlight, designed to honor retail staff employed in the pleasure industry, received a nomination for Outstanding Marketing Campaign. Each month, an individual who exceeds not only in sales performance but as an educator and customer service specialist is interviewed in the WSC newsletter and receives recognition across all Wicked Sensual Care public relations platforms.
“To see simply Aqua Special Edition receive the top ‘O’ Award nomination in our product category this year is extremely rewarding,” said Wicked Sensual Care marketing director Cassie Pendleton. ”I’m happy to see our Retail Superstar Spotlight receive an Outstanding Marketing Campaign nomination, as our retail partners play a vital role in our industry, from educating customers to making product recommendations. We thank them for being an integral part of our growth and are proud to share this nomination with all of them. We are grateful to everyone involved with the ‘O’ Awards for the continued recognition and support.”
