How does Sensua! work?
We have patented a formula utilizing menthol and L-arginine. L-arginine is an amino acid. L-arginine is used to make the nitric oxide, a compound in the body that relaxes blood vessels. These clitoral sensitizing compounds aid in the vasodilatation of clitoral blood vessels by the initial effect of menthol to facilitate and promote the absorption of L-arginine when topically applied to the mucous membrane of the clitoris. The L-arginine stimulates the nitric oxide synthase mediated production of nitric oxide to effect clitoral sensitivity, arousal, and erection by sustained vasodilatation. In the menthol/L-arginine compound, the menthol actually acts as a vehicle to enhance the absorption of L-arginine.

How does Sensua! compare to other lubricants on the market?
Sensua! is the first product specifically designed to enhance a woman’s sexual responsiveness. It is much more than a combination of botanical oils as seen in some competitor’s products. We have patented a formula utilizing menthol and L-arginine. L-arginine is an amino acid. L-arginine is used to make the nitric oxide, a compound in the body that relaxes blood vessels. These clitoral sensitizing compounds aid in the vasodilatation of clitoral blood vessels by the initial effect of menthol to facilitate and promote the absorption of L-arginine when topically applied to the mucous membrane of the clitoris. The L-arginine stimulates the nitric oxide synthase mediated production of nitric oxide to effect clitoral sensitivity, arousal, and erection by sustained vasodilatation. In the menthol/L-arginine compound, the menthol actually acts as a vehicle to enhance the absorption of L-arginine. Regulatory clearance include US FDA clearance, CE Marking, ANVISA registration, and approvals in other countries. There are also multiple US and international patents granted.
