Silicone Lube Is Dual Purpose For Both Massage And Sexuality
An all purpose lube for sex and body massage needs is the best option, this means you only need buy one product and silicone lube is the best for this. You only need use a very small amount and this actually goes a very long way, it is also good for preventing friction and is a non-irritant product.
While water based lubes are also good, any lube with glycerin, oil or any added flavors and sugars is not a great idea. The vagina is able to lubricate itself although often not enough to prevent friction, irritation and even small tears and silicone lube helps. It is also good for anal sex practices and for use with condoms.
Some lubes contain the highly corrosive Nonoxynol-9 this is a strong spermicide, its use is dangerous with condoms as it corrodes the latex they are manufactured with and this in turn makes the risk of contracting HIV higher. It also tastes like crap and can make the lips and tongue numb in the case of oral sex.
Silicone Lube Last longer Than Water Based
Silicone lube, lasts for ever and stays slippery, as we said, only a little goes a long way and it is fabulous for vaginal as well as full body massage. Bear in mind that for a quickie in the loo, it may not be practical as it can stain fabrics. Its use reduces friction and keeps things comfortable.
The best and most high quality lube is always water or silicone based. No matter how natural oils may be they often have added scent, sugar or flavor and these can all cause irritation. They may even cause and irritate yeast and bladder infections, while silicone does not do this, for some reason it does not encourage any kind of bacterial growth.
Take care if you are using silicone lube on a sex toys made of the same material however, as the two together can damage the sex toy. Simply slip a condom onto the toy and use the lube this way. This is a great tip for fast clean up and your sex toys will last longer as well as remain free of germs or other nasties.
