Blush Novelties Celebrates 2019 XBIZ Awards Nominations

NEW YORK CITY — Blush Novelties is touting its 2019 XBIZ Awards nominations, including Pleasure Products Company of the Year — Sex Toys.

Additional citations include Sex Toy of the Year — Powered (Vibrating) for Exposed Noctural; Sex Toy of the Year — Non-Powered for Avant; Gay Pleasure Product/Line of the Year for Avant Pride; and Soft Bondage Product/Line of the Year for Temptasia.

Blush Marketing Director and Resident Sex Educator, Ducky DooLittle, received a nod as Sexpert of the Year, while Blush U, the company’s free monthly online classes, is a nominee for Retail Education/Training Program of the Year.

“We are so honored for the recognition,” DooLittle said. “Thank you to our friends and fellow professionals, for recognizing our efforts to create beautiful pleasure which truly meet the needs of consumers. We are also grateful for the monumental support of XBIZ.”

Blush is “committed to ethics at every level, from manufacturing to retail. By operating its own factory, quality control is kept tight, and met to an extremely high standard. More importantly, Blush’s factories operate differently from other overseas factories,” a rep notes.

“We make over 95% of the products we sell,” said Eric Lee, Blush COO. “We find it very difficult to trust another factory to care about our customers and the end-user as much as we do. Our thought process is not about cutting corners, it’s about how we can make a better product. We do this because we can and take pride in all of our creations.”
