Sexual Lubricants: Because Wetter is Better

Wetter, slicker, hotter—sex lube makes everything you do between the sheets feel WAY better, no matter what kinky stuff you’re into. But did you know that lube also makes sex safer?

Lube isn’t just for making sex slipperier. It also keeps your condom from slipping off and breaking. A lack of lubrication is the #1 reason why condoms break!

Lube prevents chafing, rashes, and tiny cuts that can spread STIs. And it stops natural dryness that can cause discomfort during vaginal and anal sex.

In short, lube and sex go hand in hand. Without lube, your sex life won’t reach its highest potential—and your partner can tell the difference. Even when you don’t have someone to fool around with, lube turns an everyday masturbation sesh into a self-love rendezvous for the ages.

There are TONS of types of lube to choose from. There’s water-based lube, ultra-slick oil-based lube, luscious and silky silicone lube, warming lube, flavored lube, tingling lube…the options are endless. That means you can experience a new thrill and a different sensation every time you pop a bottle.

So what are you waiting for? Condomania has the best selection of lube on the web from all the top brands. And, we make it easy to find the perfect sex lube for your needs.

What Are the Types of Sex Lube?

For an in-depth look at all the types of sex lube, check out our Ultimate Guide to Sexual Lubricant. If you’re short on time, we’ll give you a quick look at the types of sex lube below.

👉 Water-based sex lube: This is the most versatile sex lube. You can use it for vaginal, anal, and oral sex. Use it with all your condoms and sex toys. It’s safe to consume, and it’s easy to clean off yourself and your sheets. Even though it’s not as slick as other types of lube, you should never be without at least one bottle of water-based sex lube. Try Swiss Navy Water-Based Lube.

👉 Oil-based sex lube: Made with a natural oil such as coconut oil, this type of lube is extra slick and slippery. And, it lasts a REALLY long time. For this reason, it’s a favorite for butt stuff. Remember that oil-based lube is not safe to use with latex condoms, as it can cause the material to tear. Try Spunk Natural coconut and avocado oil lube.

👉 Silicone sex lube: This premium sex lube is both ultra-slick and incredibly silky—a blend of comfort and performance that can’t be beat. Silicone lube is safe for all types of sex, and it’s condom-safe too. The only downside is that it can’t be used with silicone sex toys. And, it tends to be quite expensive. Try Fuck Water Premium silicone lube.

👉 Hybrid sex lube: The best of both worlds, hybrid lube is a combo of silicone and water-based lubes. It’s got the slick, everlasting slipperiness of silicone and the simple cleanup of water-based lube. Plus, it’s easier on the wallet. Try Wet Gold Hybrid lube.

👉 Warming sex lube: What’s better than wetter? Wetter AND hotter. Warming lube warms on contact, boosting sensation and increasing blood flow to your most sensitive parts. It’s especially satisfying to use during masturbation with a sex toy like a penis stroker or a clit vibrator. Try Hot Pink warming lubricant.

👉 Cooling sex lube: On hot days, a little ice makes every move oh-so-nice. This lube adds a minty-fresh and tantalizing tingle anywhere you rub it. It’s great for nipples, inner thighs, and other popular foreplay zones. Try Wet Cool Tingle Arousal lube.

👉 Tingling sex lube: This lube brings a tingle without heat or cold, adding stimulation without the need to move a muscle. Use it to increase sensitivity to the clit or drive a partner wild during foreplay. Try ID Pleasure Tingling Sensations.

👉 Flavored sex lube: Bring a cornucopia of delicious flavors to your next oral escapade with flavored lube. Make your junk or condom taste better and give your partner an incentive to nibble. Our favorite flavors include cherry-flavored lube and strawberry-flavored lube.

👉 Organic/Vegan sex lube: All-natural sex lube is easy on your body and the environment. Free from synthetic additives, chemicals, and other artificial stuff, this lube is as natural as what they do on the Discovery channel. Try Sliquid Organics Natural Gel.

Why Use Sex Lube?

Sex lube makes sex feel much better for you and your partner. And it makes sex safer. As long as you use the right lube for the right occasion, there are no downsides!

Sex requires some lubrication to make sure all of your gears and pistons can move with ease. Dryness can make sex nearly impossible—and really painful.

While some parts of the body, like vaginas, lubricate naturally, that natural lube might not last. Lube can keep the good times coming (pun intended) without anyone getting uncomfortable.

Other parts of the body, like butts, don’t lubricate on their own. So, lube is 100% necessary to enter those holiest of places.

Sex with lube is safer sex. Condoms are meant to be used with lube. Without it, they have an increased chance of slipping off or breaking. Dryness can also lead to chafing, which could cause small lesions that spread STIs.

Without lube, sex just isn’t as good. Your risk discomfort and pain, and you might even end up with an STI or a baby. So, next time you get down, make sure to lube up.

Can You Use Sex Lube with Condoms?

Yes, you can and should use lube with condoms. Sex lube makes condoms feel better, and it makes sex with a condom safer. When you lube up, your condom will be less likely to slip off or tear. This is why most condom brands include a bit of lube on the condom in the package and recommend applying more lube throughout the act.

But, not all lube is safe for all condoms. Oil-based lube is not safe to use with latex condoms, as oil can degrade latex and cause it to tear. However, oil-based lube is safe to use with non-latex condoms. Water-based lube and silicone lube are both condom-safe.

Can You Use Sex Lube with Sex Toys?

Yes, you can use sex lube with sex toys. In fact, you must use lube with most sex toys because they don’t self-lubricate. Nobody wants to play with a desert-dry vibrator or masturbation sleeve. There are plenty of lubes made specifically for sex toys, such as Tenga Hole Lotion and Gun Oil Toy Gel.

However, you can’t use silicone lube with silicone sex toys. This lube causes silicone to degrade quickly, which could result in small tears and cracks in your toy. Bacteria can make their home in these crevices and cause infection. Instead, use oil-based or water-based lube.

Is there Sex Lube for Anal Sex?

Yes, there are many sex lube products made specifically for anal sex. Anal sex requires lube because butts don’t self-lubricate. Make sure to get a long-lasting lube like an oil-based or silicone lubricant to prevent any discomfort during butt stuff. Anal lube is also highly recommended if you’re using anal toys. Condomania has a huge selection of anal sex lube right here.

Is Sex Lube Edible?

Yes, most sex lube is edible in small to moderate amounts. Water-based lube is made from water, so it won’t hurt you to consume it. Oil-based lube made with a natural oil such as coconut oil is completely safe to consume—you could even cook with it! Synthetic oil-based lubes, such as vaseline, are not safe to eat, but they are also not recommended to use as sex lubes. Silicone lube is safe to consume in small amounts because it can’t be absorbed by the body—you’ll just pass it.

It’s always good to check the label of any lube to make sure it’s non-toxic. And, it’s generally not recommended to eat lube with sensations such as warming, tingling, cooling, or numbing. All the sex lubes sold at Condomania are 100% non-toxic.

Does Sex Lube Kill Sperm?

Most lube does not kill sperm unless stated otherwise. You can purchase spermicidal lube, but this can have some side effects such as vaginal irritation. If you want extra protection against unwanted pregnancy, you’re better off with a spermicidal condom.

Can Sex Lube Cause a UTI?

Yes, it’s possible for lube to cause a urinary tract infection (UTI) if it’s made with non-body-safe ingredients. This is generally a risk for vulvas and not penises.

Some lube contains a disinfectant called Chlorhexidine Gluconate, which can upset the bacterial environment of the vagina and lead to infection. Spermicidal lube can also cause a UTI. If you’ve had trouble with UTIs in the past, choose an organic lube or a lube made specifically for women, such as Pink Natural.

Can Sex Lube Cause a Yeast Infection?

Yes, ingredients in some brands of sex lube can cause yeast infection. The most common is glycerin. This by-product of sugar causes yeast levels to skyrocket. Luckily, most sex lubes no longer contain glycerin. To avoid yeast infections, use water-based or organic lube.
