Choosing the Right Personal Lubricant
Lubricants & Condoms
Lack of good lubrication is the #1 reason for condom failure. Using a good lube can also make your experience with condoms more enjoyable. When shopping for personal lubricants please stay away from any lube that contains oil. Baby Oil, Vaseline, Massage Oils will damage latex products. A quality lube like Astroglide, or Eros Body Glide, has received critical acclaim throughout the media.
Water-based Lubricants
These products are made from a water-soluble base. They are designed to be used with ALL adult toys and are condom safe. These lubes are slippery but may need to be re-applied. Depending on the level of quality, water-based lubes have a tendency to get "Sticky Feeling" and dry out. Our favorite water-based products are Astroglide, Wet Original (A Thicker Product) and the thinner feeling Wet Light. Remember, water-based lubes are not as silky feeling and long lasting as silicone based.
Silicone Based Lubes
Our personal favorites! Silicone ( Wet Platinum | Eros Body Glide ) personal lubricants are unlike any other. They are never sticky, completely condom safe, and can be used in water! Unlike some lubes that begin to feel sticky or slimy, silicone lubes always remain slick and very silky feeling. NOTE : Silicone based lubricants should not be used with sex toys made of Cyberskin, Futurotic, NeoSkin, Silicone or EuroSkin. We get asked constantly. "Which Lube is THE Best?" We find the EROS brand to be "Hands Down" the best lube on the planet. The Eros Light has a very thin water like consistency while the EROS BodyGlide is slightly thicker. And remember, when using the EROS Lubricants, just use one or two drops. They are super concentrated so a little goes a long way!
Lubes with Spermicide
Due to the many reports of the Health Risks associated with NonOxynol-9 Spermicide, we no longer carry these products.
Flavored Lubes
Wet Fun Flavors come in a variety of great flavored styles, from tropical to refreshing. All are condom and toy safe and add an interesting dimension to sex. They are also safe for vaginal use however, they do contain Glycerin so they should be avoided by woman who have any type of sensitivity to Glycerin or those that are prone to frequent yeast infections.
Warming & Cooling Lubricants
These lubricants contain special properties that help make your love making experience even more memorable. We have some great new products the when blown on or rubbed create heat(Wet Warming Lubricant)! We even have a brand new product that gives off a tingling, cooling sensation when blown on (Durex Play Tingling). These products are also condom safe.
A Note Regarding Yeast Infections
Some women have reported that many sex lubes aggravate reoccurring yeast Infections. If this is an issue for you, we recommend Probe Personal Lubricant, Liquid Silk, or Pjur Woman Aqua. Liquid Silk is the most recommended lube by health educators for coping with this problem. As yeast infections can be extremely troublesome for those with weakened immune systems we recommend you talk to your health care provider before choosing a lubricant.

Have you ever looked at the ingredients in most commercial lubricants. They have all kinds of stuff I don't want to be using! Take a look at the label on your KY Jelly or Astroglide sometime, there are a whole lot of toxic ingredients there!
For an all natural lubricant that last long and works great check out Amore personal Lubricant www.amorepersonallubricant.com/ . You can't use it with latex condoms, but if that isn't an issue then this is the way to go.
astroglide is awesome! I like to sample different flavored lubes but most of them make me nauseated after a while. I do like the cinnamon flavored ones though.
