With the rapid growth of The Velvet Thruster, the company has been able to invest in new Thruster products, as well as new brand extensions under the Velvet umbrella. Among them are Gleam (arousal balms and lubricants, including those with thc and cbd); Boutique Voila (a collection of vibrators, wands, suction toys and strokers) and L’Acier (a line of vibrating stainless steel toys).
