In this guide, we’ll break down the different types of lubricants, their benefits, and how to choose the best one for your unique preferences.

Types of Lubricants

Water-Based Lubricants

Pros: Versatile, safe with all toy materials, pH balanced easy to clean, and non-staining. Best type of lubricant for menopausal women, best for making you extra slippery.

Cons: Can dry out faster and may require reapplication.

Best For: All-purpose use, toy play, and those with sensitive skin.

Silicone-Based Lubricants

Pros: Long-lasting, ultra-smooth, and waterproof (perfect for shower fun).
