Lubricants

Lubricants (or “lube”) are substances designed to reduce friction and enhance comfort during intimate activities, including sex, masturbation, and the use of sex toys. They can also be used for medical purposes, such as during pelvic exams or inserting medical devices.

Types of Lubricants:

Water-Based – Safe for all activities, easy to clean, compatible with condoms and sex toys, but may dry out quickly.
Silicone-Based – Long-lasting, smooth, and ideal for water play, but not compatible with silicone sex toys.
Oil-Based – Provides a natural feel and long-lasting lubrication but can damage latex condoms.
Hybrid Lubes – A mix of water and silicone, offering a balance between smoothness and easy cleanup.
Natural/Organic Lubes – Made from plant-based or body-safe ingredients, ideal for sensitive skin.

How to Use Lubricants:

Apply a small amount to intimate areas, sex toys, or condoms as needed.
Reapply if necessary, especially with water-based lubricants.
Choose the right type based on your activity (e.g., silicone-based for shower play, water-based for everyday use).
Avoid harmful ingredients like glycerin (which can cause infections) or parabens (which may irritate sensitive skin).
Clean up easily with warm water and mild soap, depending on the lube type.
