Huge Dildo

Have you ever wondered which personal lubricant is best for your needs? With so many kinds to choose from, it can be a little intimidating. Which one is best for use with condoms? What if you need lube for underwater play? And what about anal play? You may not feel that it even matters, but to get the best experience from your lubricant, you need to make the right choice.

Although there are many different brands of personal lubricant, they will almost always fall into three main categories: water-based, silicone, and oil based. Each different kind is best used in specific situations.

Water-based lubricants are the most widely available. They are also the healthiest for you, easiest to clean up, and are compatible with latex and many sex toys. They do have a tendency to dry out after some time, but this problem is easily overcome by simply reapplying more. Since they are water soluble, they are not recommended for use in the bathtub, pool, or spa. They would just breakdown almost immediately and be rendered useless.

Silicone-based lubricants have many exclusive traits that distinguish them from other personal lubricants. Unlike water-based lubes, which absorb into the skin, silicone stays put for a very consistent glide. It has the feel of oil, but doesn’t have the negative effect of breaking down latex like most oil-based lubes do. Another positive feature of silicone is it’s great for anal play. With its long lasting durability, it will stay smooth and pleasurable to the sensitive anal tissue. Since it’s not water soluble, it works beautifully in the bath tub, pool or spa. Silicone lube is not compatible with cyberskin or silicone dildos. You must always cover such toys with a condom prior to the application of silicone lube.

Oil-based lubricants are the least popular of the three. They are best used for anal play and male masturbation. Oil-based lubes will irritate most women’s vaginas, so should be avoided if possible. They should never be used with latex products as they will destroy them on contact. Although oil-based lube has its limitations, it is still worth mentioning since it does reduce friction dramatically which is always a plus. Just remember to use it in the right circumstances.

So now that you know the basic differences between personal lubricants you should be able to make an informed decision on which one is right for you. The Slippery Pie carries all these personal lubricants in a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Many of the lubes mentioned above have added features such as a warming effect and flavors to please the palate while you please your partner. With such a huge selection, there is no need to ever be “dry” again. Smooth things out with some personal lubricant and enjoy your sexual experiences to the fullest.
