Lubricant improves sexual intercourse, whether it's added because of the need for additional moisture or other positive properties. Therefore, it's not unusual to have several different lubricants for various occasions and purposes in your bedside drawer.
The most common choices are:
In the following, we will take a closer look at the basic characteristics of each type of lubricant and how to choose the right one for yourself.
Water-based lubricants are most commonly used, as they are the mildest and can be used both during sex and in combination with erotic toys made of any material.
Their disadvantage compared to silicone-based lubricants is that they are less durable and need to be applied more frequently. On the other hand, cleaning after use is much easier, as they quickly wash off with water.
If you are looking for the most versatile lubricant, then a water-based one is definitely the most appropriate. We recommend having it always at hand, as you never know when it will come in handy!
These lubricants have a slightly narrower purpose of use, as they are more specific. The possibility of an allergic reaction is slightly higher than with those water-based, so we recommend that you first apply a small amount of the new silicone-based lubricant on your forearm and wait half an hour to an hour to make sure that your body will accept the lubricant well.
The advantage of using silicone-based lubricants is that they are more resistant to being washed off by water and various bodily fluids, which means they are more durable. Their biggest disadvantage, however, is that they are not compatible with erotic toys made of silicone (which today constitutes the majority). There can be a reaction that destroys the surface of the toy making it unusable. Therefore, in combination with erotic toys, opt for water-based lubricants, unless they are metal, glass, etc.
Anal sex can be one of the most orgasmic experiences, but only if approached correctly. Since the anal opening does not moisturize itself like the vaginal one does, the use of a good lubricant is definitely mandatory. In anal intercourse, the use of a silicone-based lubricant is even more welcome, as it will be more durable and will not need to be added as often.
In our offer, there is also a whole range of special anal lubricants, which allow easier penetration. These lubricants contain agents for mild relaxation of the anal muscle, making penetration much less painful and easier. For those who are encountering anal stimulation for the first time, we definitely recommend the use of these anal lubricants.
If you are looking for a lubricant for anal sex or practice it often, then an anal lubricant should not be missing from your collection!
If you don't know what a lubricant tastes like, you can safely try it. It will quickly become clear that for use during oral sex, a classic lubricant is not the best choice. Many flavored lubricants will certainly enhance this experience.
The flavors vary, so choose the one that suits you best. Most flavored lubricants have a pleasant scent, which will contribute to a more erotic atmosphere in the bedroom. However, since flavored lubricants contain various additives, first apply them to your forearm to ensure there is no allergic reaction.
Want to use a lubricant during oral sex? Or are you looking to change positions during intercourse and include oral sex in between? In that case, definitely use a flavored lubricant.
