Storerotica Lubricant Company of the Year Wicked Sensual Care has received five 2023 XBIZ Awards and XBIZ Exec Awards nominations. Now in its tenth year of business, WSC’s nominations speak to the quality and diversity of the company’s products, its dedication to sexual health and education, and to its unyielding commitment to superior customer service.
A leading creator of luxurious intimate lubricants and enhancers, Wicked Sensual Care’s proven track record of innovation earned it a Sex Lubricant Company of the Year nomination. Teasers Fresh Fruit Mix, a collection of travel-sized packets bursting with delicious fruit flavors, received a nomination for Sex Lubricant of the Year.
“It’s an honor to be nominated for Sex Lubricant Company of the Year and Sex Lubricant of the Year by XBIZ,” enthused Cassie Pendleton, Marketing Director for Wicked Sensual Care. “Receiving this recognition is incredibly rewarding. We thank everyone at XBIZ for continuing to acknowledge our commitment to sexual health and wellness.”
Nowhere was Wicked Sensual Care’s influence and dedication to sex education more evident than in one of the XBIZ Awards’ top nominations – Sexpert of the Year, which honored Resident Sex Educator and Brand Strategist jessica drake’s tireless work as a sexual wellness educator and sex worker rights activist.
“I’m so grateful and humbled to receive this nomination for Sexpert of the Year, particularly among such an esteemed group of progressive educators,” said drake. “We share the same ultimate goals. As people of all ages and backgrounds learn about sex, our question continues to be ‘from whom do we want them to learn? From the mainstream media? From tube sites? From their friends? Or do we want them to learn from an educated, nonjudgmental source who normalizes sex and the many different forms it takes?’ So, thank you, XBIZ, for acknowledging those who strive to provide sensible and inclusive sex education.”
Wicked Sensual Care Sales Director Jennifer Brice is a finalist nominee for Business Development Exec of the Year in the retail industry edition of the 2023 XBIZ Exec Awards. “I’m very honored to be nominated alongside such talented and professional colleagues,” said Brice. “I absolutely love representing Wicked Sensual Care and I appreciate this recognition from XBIZ.”
Wicked Sensual Care President and Owner Steve Orenstein received the Exec Award nomination for Chief Exec of the Year. Upon learning of the distinction, Orenstein said, “I’m extremely proud of our team’s hard work over the last ten years, and very happy to see their contributions continue to be recognized. There can be no recognition given to me without them. Thank you to that team, XBIZ, and all of our retail and distributor partners and friends.”
