Ponsonby gets into bed with a pleasure pop-up shop - Hello Lover!

Located at 304 Ponsonby Road...And as you'd expect it's all class.

New Zealand owned sexual wellness company Hello Lover, has opened the doors to a contemporary pop-up shop at 304 Ponsonby Road. From now until the end of December, curious customers will have the chance to visit a one-stop destination for the best in global love essentials - from chic sex toys to pH balancing lubricants, arousal serums, cheeky games and more.

Created to change the outdated sex shop industry, Hello Lover is putting the positivity back into pleasure with a shopping experience that’s thoughtful, private and, most importantly, fun! As is the goal for when we explore our sexual wellbeing - embrace, enjoy and find what works best for you.

Whether you’re new to the world of sensual pleasure, or consider yourself a seasoned pro - there’s something here for everyone. Shop the best in international sexual wellness brands, from the likes of We-Vibe, VUSH, Dame, Satisfyer, Svakom, PlusOne, Le Wand, Tenga, Par Femme, My ilo, B-Vibe, Fun Factory, FIGR and Frenchie. Products start from affordable price points in an effort to be accessible for all.

The sexual wellness industry has boomed in recent years and Hello Lover is at the forefront of this. Not only has the brand sparked joy in New Zealand, but in Australia too, having recently taken out Gold at the Australian Good Design Awards for best in Communication Design. The Australian Good Design Awards are the highest honour for outstanding design and innovation in Australia.

The pathway to building a more inclusive sexual wellness industry has been met with plenty of challenges for Hello Lover’s founder and owner, Ella Jaggar-McLean, with securing a shop lease being one of them.

“Just mention the word sex and you’ve polorised your audience - which is absolutely fine - we are not trying to change people. We’re modernising the shopping experience and reframing the way we think about sex - placing emphasis on ‘intimacy’ and ‘connection’ rather than ‘sex’. We want to let people know it is okay to seek pleasure and, in fact, it can be more empowering than you’d think. We are delighted to have a pop up shop front in such a fantastic community that is filled with love and diversity,” comments Jaggar-McLean.

Hello Lover is just as much for young curious couples as it is for everlasting lovers seeking to spice things up; for the LGBTTQIA+ community, or for people wishing to prioritise self-care but feel that no brand within the sexual wellness category speaks to them.
