What can you find in a light bondage kit?
A light bondage kit consists of quite a few different little bits and pieces. So let’s take a look at what is in a light beginner kit and what they do!
- Blindfold – They take away your sense of sight, leaving you in the dark and unaware of what new and unexpected sensation is going to come next. Blindfolds really heighten those other senses and in turn the whole experience!
- Soft handcuffs – There’s nothing quite like the helpless feeling of being handcuffed. You are unable to move your arms, and you’re at the mercy of someone else. It’s all down to your partner to provide your pleasure!
- Restraints – Being held down and tied up makes you feel vulnerable and exposed. Restraints allow your partner to make sure that you can’t move and have no option but to submit to their commands!
- Tickler – BDSM isn’t all about inflicting pain, it’s also about inflicting pleasure! Bondage ticklers are soft and light and will tease those parts of your body that absolutely love that kind of attention. A real treat before things get harsher!
- Breathable ball gag – Sometimes your partner might want to keep you quiet, and here’s where the breathable ball gag comes in. It goes in your mouth and straps around the back of your head, leaving you unable to speak, while still being able to breathe.
- Butt plug – Going in your butt and giving you that full feeling while also stretching out that tight little hole, butt plugs are a favorite among BDSM lovers. They are great little toys for training your butt to take something even bigger!
- Soft bondage rope – This kind of rope is perfect for a whole range of different things. From tying someone to the bed, restraining their arms, strapping them to a chair, whatever you might want to do, soft bondage rope is strong and durable while feeling nice and soft.
FAQ
Light bondage
Light bondage is the perfect way to ease yourself into bondage, with kits typically consisting of some form of restraint, a mode of sensory deprivation and a toy intended to tease. It gives the user total freedom to adjust the intensity levels, but would likely be considered too mild for hardcore bondage lovers. Bondage lovers all have to start somewhere, right? This is a gentle and exciting introduction to the world of BDSM (or more specifically the 'bondage' portion of BDSM)! They are definitely less harsh than some of the more advanced kits, and allow you to explore at your own pace before working your way up to something a little more extreme!

The 7 Best light bondages in Test
Fifty Shades of Grey Hard Limits Bed Restraint Kit
The Fifty Shades of Grey hard limits bed restraint kit was built for bondage beginners, but it still packs a punch as a premium product. It’s a light bondage kit, comprised of 4 padded cuffs to be used on your or your partner’s wrists or ankles. But the versatility doesn’t end there. With an adjustable bed strap system that attaches to any size bed, the opportunities are endless with this light bondage gear. Plus, it’s super soft on the skin, with the cuff attachments made of a sensual silk material – perfect for those who desire a lighter touch. Quality light bondage play comes at a cost, however, and this particular kit sits at the higher end of the price scale.

On the expensive sideRequires self-assemblyNot for hardcore bondage loversThis light bondage kit is perfect for those who are only just dipping their toes in the pool of BDSM and bondage. Its adjustability makes it super accessible, perfect for all shapes and sizes, and suitable for use with all kinds of furniture, opening up a plethora of playful opportunities – why limit things to the bedroom?
Despite taking a stroke of careful concentration to set up, you and your partner will be thrilled with the result when the gear is set up, and you can leave it attached to your bed for easy future use. Furthermore, the bondage kit can be easily packed away into nothing, so discretion won’t be an issue – whether you’re at home or on the move.
We love the added feature of a silk eye mask, but bear in mind that the mask is not adjustable, therefore may not be fit for use for all customers. It’s also on the expensive side, but such a price is expected from a kit as high quality as this one.
Lovehoney Oh! Get Started Tie & Tease Kit
This set takes things back to basic – but don’t confuse basic with boring. Its ease of use and overall simplicity appeals to beginners exploring light bondage play, but the opportunities for fun are endless with this set.
As the name suggests, the aim of this kit is to tie & tease your partner, and with the addition of a super soft feather tickler, the teasing part comes naturally. And if you’re looking to stimulate your senses even more, why not try out the included satin eye mask? It pairs nicely with the tickler and sumptuously silky soft bondage restraints. But despite being soft, the restraints will still hold you or your partner firmly in place, allowing for total submission or dominance.
The choice is yours – either use each item in isolation or combine together for a more intense experience.

However, the simplicity of this set makes it likely to underwhelm those who are more experienced in the art of bondage. In addition to this, the low price unfortunately equates to a slightly lower quality – you get what you pay for after all.

Bondage Boutique Lusty Metallic Beginner's Bondage Kit (2 Piece)
The Bondage Boutique lite kit is comprised of two simple but effective parts. One part is the eye mask, designed to shock your senses and elevate your play. The second piece is the wrist (or ankle) cuffs, connected by a strong metal chain for optimum restraint. Both the eye mask and the cuffs are lined with sensually soft faux-fur to engage your animal instincts – the perfect soothing material for a bondage beginner. And with an interesting metallic mint green coating on the outside of the pieces, this is one of the most unique appearing bondage sets you will come across; it’s always an added bonus when your toys look as good as they feel.
The metal chain is also detachable, and the two metal rings on the cuffs mean that you could source your own, longer material to connect the cuffs to another surface, such as a bed – kinky right?

It acts as a good base from which to jump into your bondage journey, but comprising of only 2 parts, a lot has to be left up to the user’s imagination.
We love the unique metallic mint colour of the set and find the faux-fur lining spine-tinglingly soft, with the eye mask adding an extra stroke of sexy. It’s a great introduction into bondage, but for those looking for a more intense education on all things bondage and BDSM, this kit may be a little mild.
OUCH! Introductory Bondage Kit #5
We may be on the topic of light bondage, but once you dip your toe into this pool, you’ll likely want more and more, which is where the OUCH! Introductory Bondage Kit comes in handy. It comes with an impressive 5 parts, consisting of: a 10 meter silk Japanese rope, a breathable ball gag, a spanking paddle, a satin eye mask, and a jeweled anal plug. Wowzers.
This product really packs a punch and has all bases covered…so long as you can figure out how to use the Japanese rope! We recommend tying your partner up with the Shibari or Kinbaku style, so beware beginners – this set may take a little patience to use.

Bondage Boutique Midnight Special Gift Set (5 Piece)
The Bondage Boutique Midnight Special set is sort of a one-of-a-kind. It has an old-school vintage design that will transport you straight back to the sexiest of all times – the Victorian era, of course.
With a rope, a rubber flogger, a lacy eye mask, a pair of bow-topped nipple pasties, and a pair of fantastically frilly handcuffs included, you’re not going to run out of ways to please your partner with this set. It’s beginner friendly and the perfect way to welcome a spot of role play into your bedroom, and it looks great.

| Materials | rubber, rose gold chain, polyester |
It's perfect for bondage beginnersIt's super affordableThe design is tantalisingly uniqueComes with 5 products includedThe cuffs are a little loose You need to tie the rope yourself The restraint is a little weakThe flogger is on the small sideIf you’re looking to inject a little fantasy into your bedroom, then this is the perfect light bondage set for you and your partner. BUT, be warned – there is an emphasis on the light here. Whilst the toys which accompany the set are a little naughtier, the bondage materials themselves are pretty weak and can only tolerate a certain level of tension.
But despite saying this, The Bondage Boutique Midnight set is the perfect product for bondage beginners. Its restraints aren’t intimidating and you only have to use the toys if you want to.
All this at such a reasonable price? It would be rude not to.
