When it comes to intimacy and sexual pleasure, ensuring comfort and pleasure is the #1 most important thing. So, lubricants play a crucial role in enhancing sexual experiences, reducing friction, and increasing pleasure but where to begin?


With an array of options available in the market, it's important to understand the different types of lubricants and their unique qualities. 


In this blog post, we’ll explore various lubricants, their uses, and their benefits, helping you to choose the one that is purrfect!





Water-based lubricants


First things first, this is probably one of the most popular types of lube.


They are compatible with all types of sexual activities and toy materials. Need compatibility with latex condoms? No problem! Water-based lubricants have got your back.


Plus, they're hypoallergenic, making them perfect for those with sensitive skin. 


Choose from a delicious array of flavours to add a tasty twist to your escapades (psst, our favourite is mojito).

Silicone-Based Lubricants


Picture this: a luxurious glide, a silky touch, and long-lasting slipperiness. 


These lubricants are like the superheroes of endurance, perfect for those extended play sessions. They're even water-resistant, so you can take the fun to the shower or hot tub without missing a beat. 


But beware, lovers! 


Some silicone-based lubricants may not play well with certain silicone sex toys. They are generally safe for use with latex condoms but always check beforehand!

Oil-Based Lubricants


They are derived from natural sources and can help nourish and soften the skin, which, if you have dry skin might give you more than just pleasure!


They may come in the form of a candle, chocolate body paint or (if you’re simple enough) a bottle! Check out all our oil based lubricants on our website, here.


Oil-based lubricants can be used to add an extra level of intimacy for you and your lover through massages or sensual activities.


Just remember, they're not compatible with latex condoms or certain toy materials, so choose wisely to avoid any slippery situations!



Hybrid Lubricants


Ah behold the hybrid lubricants! These magnificent creatures bring together the best of both worlds.


Imagine the long-lasting, velvety smoothness of silicone-based lubricants combined with the compatibility of water-based ones.


Hybrid lubricants are a great option for those who want the benefits of both water-based and silicone-based products, providing a balance of slipperiness and ease of cleanup!

Specialty Lubricants


Last but not least, we have specialty lubricants. These enchanting potions offer unique sensations to tantalise your senses. 


Heat things up with warming lubricants or add a refreshing chill with cooling ones. Some even come infused with ingredients like aloe vera or vitamin E for an extra dose of nourishment and care. Like this cinnamon and ginger one by Vibio!


Remember, adventurous friends, this journey is all about you and what brings YOU pleasure. Communication, consent, and fun are the keys to unlocking the treasure trove of lubricant delights.


So, let your desires guide you, try different lubricants, and discover the one that sets your world ablaze. Get ready to elevate your intimate experiences to new heights, and let the slippery fun begin!
