Silicone-Based Lubricant
Silicone-based lubricants are highly concentrated, meaning you rarely need to reapply during sex. They provide a long-lasting, silky-smooth glide with plenty of protective lubrication. One important recommendation is to avoid using silicone-based lubricants with silicone sex toys, as this can damage the material and shorten the product’s lifespan.
Lubricant for Long-Lasting Glide
For anyone who wants extra glide that lasts, combined with a more luxurious feel, silicone-based lubricants are an ideal choice. Unlike water-based lubricants, they feel less wet, more body-temperature-like, and offer a consistently protective glide. Silicone-based lubricants are also recommended for anal sex, since the rectum does not produce natural lubrication. A product like Velvet Lube provides a soft, long-lasting feel that many appreciate.
Lubricant for Vaginal Dryness
Lubricants can make sex more comfortable, whether with a partner or a sex toy, and silicone-based options can be especially helpful for those experiencing vaginal dryness. They support the body by creating a sensation of natural moisture. Dryness is common during breastfeeding, stress, or menopause, and products such as Glow Lube or the richer Magic Lube can add comfort, softness, and long-lasting glide.
