Personal Lubricant is becoming more and more popular among sexually active part of our society. You can use it when using a condom, playing with your favorite toy or just enjoying yourself. Lubricant makes intercourse much more smooth, slick, and comfortable. It also plays an important part in reducing the risk of condom tear.
A huge selection of personal lubricants varies by base and brand. There are four different categories of personal lubricant:
1. Water Based - those lubricants are made of water and glycerin. It is evaporating very quick.
2. Based on Silicone - Lubricated Condoms are usually made with silicone lubricant. SILICONE BASED LUBRICANTS CAN NOT BE USED WITH SEX TOYS. Majority of sex toys are made with silicone and it is a fact that silicone based lubricant can react with a silicone in the sex toy. It is used with all types of condoms and will not evaporate as quick as water based.
3. Based on Oil – OIL-BASED LUBRICANTS CAN NOT BE USED WITH LATEX CONDOMS. They are destroying latex. However POLYURETHANE condoms CAN NOT be destroyed by oil based lubricant.
4. Flavored – Flavored lubricants are usually water-based and some contain sugar. They bring more excitement in sex life with your favorite flavor and aroma.
