💦 The Lubricants That You Won't Be Able to Live Without

🔥 What is Unique about Silicone-Based Lubricants?

If you’re interested in spicing up your sex life, sometimes something as simple as a bit of lubricant can make a huge (orgasmic!) difference. Try opting for a bottle of the best silicone lube, which can make things more enjoyable and steamy, all at an affordable price. Silicone lubes offer unparalleled glide during vaginal or anal penetration or masturbation, featuring a silk-like texture that’s long-lasting and doesn’t require reapplication, even during continuous sex or water play. They’re also made from gentle, hypoallergenic, body-safe silicones that are especially ideal for folks with allergies or sensitivities and are compatible with all types of condoms and toys – except those made from silicone.

🤲 Pro Tips for Choosing Your Lube

Various types of lube are available, each with pros and cons depending on your specific situation. Whether trying lube for the first time or considering switching to a new brand, make sure you know the differences between the four primary types.

As we mentioned, everyone’s lube needs are different. If you have sensitive skin and are worried that a particular lube might be irritating, you can test it first. Start testing the lube on your wrist or inner elbow to be as safe as possible. However, even if the patch test goes well, your genitals may be more sensitive due to the differences in the skin and mucous membranes in the area, so after this, you can try applying lube on and around the vulva to see how you react. And finally, you can test the product in your vagina to see if you experience any sensitivity. The Pro Tips, as promised:

1. Consider what you’re using it for. Different types of lube work better for other purposes. For vaginal intercourse, try a water-based or silicone-based lube, as they are doubtful to cause vaginal infections. For anal sex, silicone lube may be best to prevent condom breakage. For oral sex, some brands offer flavored lubes - we've got you covered!
2. Use sparingly if trying to conceive. If you are having sex in hopes of getting pregnant, be aware that many forms of lube impede sperm mobility. Seek out a style of lube specially formulated to be sperm-friendly.
3. Avoid products not marketed as lube. Avoid using non-lube products such as petroleum jelly or moisturizers inside your vagina or anus. These can cause unwanted side effects, including infections, and they do not work as well as formulated lubricants.
4. Monitor your overall sexual health. Vaginal dryness may indicate a medical issue, including abnormal estrogen levels. Monitor your overall wellness and consult a gynecologist as needed.
5. Use extra lube as necessary. If you’re experiencing vaginal dryness due to menopause or birth control, use extra lube, mainly water-based, silicone-based, or aloe vera-based.
