What is a Silicone Lube?

Recall that a good lubricant is a spice to an enjoyable sexual experience, and we mentioned why. You can have friction-free anal and vaginal penetrative sex with or without sex toys with a good lubricant. And away from the world of penetrative sex, a good lubricant allows for easy stimulation and smooth caressing of the body and its sensitive parts. With good lubricants, using sex toys becomes very easy and safe. They prevent injuries that can be caused by spanking, clamping, sucking, or pumping. Silicone lube is a type of lubricant that is based on the material it is made of, in this case, silicone. Other types are water-based, oil-based, or made from natural ingredients such as aloe vera or gel. The lubricant made from silicone is a popular type because it offers so many benefits. For example, it can be used with any sex toy, including the ones made from rubber, glass, leather, or plastic. Also, they are very supportive of every skin type. So, you can rarely get allergies or a reaction from using a good silicone-based lubricant.

If you have noticed, we keep saying 'good lubricants.' Does that mean there are bad ones? Well, yes and no. But we will get to that as we go further. For now, let's begin with the types of the ever-beneficial silicone lubricant.

Different types

As mentioned earlier, the name is derived from the material it is made from where other types are oil-based, water-based, or made from natural ingredients such as aloe vera or gel. For a silicone-based lube, the types are based on the area of application and some of the other features that it might contain. The features could include a tingling effect, numbing effect, or a flavored lubricant.

• Vaginal Silicone Lube: Lubricants can be applied to either the vagina or the anal hole. But it is not the same type that is used for both areas. The type applied to the vagina is the most common type available, and it is only for people with a vagina (obviously). It can come in many sizes and textures of the gel. But before buying, ensure that you check the ingredients of the lube to ensure that you and your partner (if any) are not allergic or sensitive to any of the ingredients. Also, check for where it says 'vagina' so that you don't end up purchasing an anal lubricant.
• Anal Silicone Lubricant: Anal silicone lube is the type that is usually applied to the anal opening. Don't forget to check for where it says 'anal' or any relative word before buying. Usually, the lubricants for the behind are thicker than the vagina so that they can last longer. It is because, unlike the vagina, the anus is not self-lubricating. In addition, check the ingredients to ensure that neither you nor your partner (if any) is allergic or sensitive.

• Silicone Tingling Lubricant: This is another variant of the silicone-based lube. It is based on the additional effect you get from its use. As the name implies, when applied, the user (you or your partner) feels a tingling effect inside the vagina or anus. It simulates the effect of a vibrating sex toy. Therefore, even without external stimulation, the vagina or anus is prepared for orgasm. However, you should know that this type of lube can be made from ingredients that can be skin sensitive, so check to ensure that you are safe while using it. The tingling sex lube effect can be found in both vagina and anal lubricants.
• Numbing Silicone Lubricant: This is also similar to the tingling type because it is classified based on the additional effects of the lube. As for the numbing lube, it can be found in only anal lubricants because its specialty is in numbing the pain of penetrative anal sex. Sometimes, anal sex can be painful, and no matter the amount of lubricant applied, you may still feel some amount of pain. A numbing silicone lubricant completely numbs the anal so that it becomes insensitive to pain, but not to worry, it doesn’t numb the pleasure. You’ll still feel all the pleasure and stimulation, just not the pain.
• Flavored Silicone Lubricant: This is the last type under the category for additional effects. The flavored type is always made with delicious and sweet-smelling flavors to increase the spice of sexual play. It can be in both vagina and anal lubricants. It can also either taste good or smell good. The flavors mainly used include strawberry, orange, pineapple, mint, daisy, flower aroma, and so on.

How To Pick the Best Silicone Lubricant?

With the many types in the market, you may be wondering, 'what type of lubricant is best for me?' We have compiled a few tips to assist you when buying so that you do not buy wrongly.

1. Safety first; ensure that neither you nor your partner is allergic or sensitive to the ingredients used to make the ingredients.
2. When buying a flavored silicone lube, stay away from flavors that irritate or react with your skin (and your partner, if any).
3. Use anal lubes for anal sexual plays and vagina lubes for vagina use only.
4. Pick a silicone-based lubricant only when you are not using a silicone-based sex toy. This is because silicone lubricants react negatively with silicone materials.
5. Finally, buy only from a trusted source (online or in a physical store). Also, check for the expiry date and reviews of the products. Note that some information might advise making a DIY silicone lubricant. We recommend you kindly stay away from this. It could be unsafe and dangerous. It is always better to apply and use only high-quality products that have been tested and approved by professionals on your skin.

How To Use?

It is very easy to use a lubricant made from silicone, whether for application on the skin or a sex toy. The process for use on the skin is as follows: Warm an amount of lubricant in your hands then, apply it to either the vagina or the anus, or any other part of the body. Do not apply the lube directly to the skin.

For use on a sex toy, you can apply directly to the toy and then rub. You can also apply it to your hands first, and then you rub it evenly on the toy. If the lube is not enough, you can apply more (there is no limit). After use, always store it away from kitchen products or children. Keep in a cool and dry place.

Pros and Cons of Silicone Lube

The only disadvantage of this lube is that it can't be used with any material (or sex toy) made with silicone. They do not work very well with each other. However, there are many advantages. They include:

1. It is supportive for many skins types;
2. It can be used in both anal and vagina sex play;
3. It increases the chances of orgasm during penetrative sex (anal or vagina);
4. It is effortless to apply and store;
5. It can be used in the shower and swimming pool;
6. It prevents injury during sex, BDSM, and sex-related play;
7. It is also simple to clean up;

Final Thoughts

Lubricants are vital because they make sex and sexual plays easier, painless, and more pleasurable. A silicone lubricant is a good addition to your collection anytime as long as you do not use it with silicone material and you are not sensitive to it.
