While your body naturally produces lubrication during sexual arousal, sometimes it needs a little boost. Stress, medication, health issues, or hormonal changes can affect your body's ability to produce enough natural lubrication. When this happens, lube can be an effective solution.
But lube isn’t just for those times when you’re feeling a bit dry. It can also add a fun twist to your sexual experiences, making everything from intercourse to oral sex to solo play even more pleasurable. Plus, it can help extend those intimate moments, giving you and your partner more time to enjoy each other.
They’re easy to clean up, gentle on the skin, and safe to use with most condoms and most sex toys, including silicone ones. The no-lumps formula is as close to real as possible.
Silicone lubes offer a silky, long-lasting feel, making them ideal for water play since they won’t easily wash off. However, be cautious when using them with silicone toys, as they can cause damage over time.
This makes them a great choice for those who want the smooth glide of water-based lubes but with the added benefit of longer-lasting performance. They're ideal for both intimate moments and fun in the water. Just be cautious when using them with silicone toys, as they can cause damage.
Oil-based lubes are luxurious and long-lasting, perfect for long sessions or even massages. However, they’re not compatible with most condoms and can be a bit tricky to clean up.
Selecting the right lube depends on your personal preferences and what you’re planning to use it for. Here’s a quick guide:
Solo Play: Water-based, silicone-based, or hybrid lubes all work well. ASTROGLIDE Liquid is great for quick sessions, while ASTROGLIDE X Premium Silicone Liquid offers lasting slickness.
With Condoms or Toys: Go for water-based or silicone-based lubes that are safe with latex. Stick to water-based options if you're using silicone toys.
Water Play: For activities in the shower, tub, or pool, choose a silicone-based lube like ASTROGLIDE X Premium Silicone Gel that won’t wash away.
Special sensations: Pick lubes with added effects, like warming or flavoured options, for an extra thrill. Try ASTROGLIDE Strawberry Liquid for a sweet twist.
Sensitive Skin: If you’re prone to irritation, pick a lube formulated for sensitive skin, like ASTROGLIDE Ultra Gentle Gel.
Lube isn't just for bedroom fun. Many women find it helpful for easing vaginal dryness, especially during perimenopause or menopause. If this resonates with you, a water-based gel like ASTROGLIDE Gel could be a good option. Always consult your OB/GYN for advice on treating vaginal dryness.
In small amounts, most lubes are safe to swallow. However, it's crucial to check the label to ensure the lube is designed for oral use. Some contain ingredients that aren’t meant to be ingested. If you're unsure, speak with a doctor or sexual health expert for personalised guidance.
Applying lube is easy—start with a pea-sized amount and apply it to yourself, your partner, or your toy. You can always add more if needed. Store your lube at room temperature, though some people enjoy keeping gel-based lubes in the fridge for an added chill.
