Silicone Lubricant is More Than Just Smooth

Silicone Lubricant is the most popular type of sex lubricant used today, and there are many reasons why. Silicone Lubricant is the smoothest and slipperiest lube out of the three main kinds. There are water based lubes, good for vaginal penetration; oil based lubes, great for men who need lubricant for masturbating; and then the hailed silicone lubricant, which is good for sex without silicone toys. The best general use lubricant is probably the silicone lubricant. Even though all of the types of lube have pros and cons, silicone based lube seems to have the best balance between the two. Silicone lubricant has a thick, smooth, lush consistency to it, which many people really enjoy. It lasts longer than water based lubes because of this, and does not need to be re applied nearly as often as water based ones. A really good silicone lubricant feels silky and smooth to both partners. Silicone lubricant is more expensive than water lubricant, however, but you dont need to use nearly as much, and most users agree that it is worth the little extra money. A really good silicone lubricant ideally should not contain parabens or glycerin, which can cause infections and alter the ph of the vagina. Commonly, people who are used to using water based lube may find that it takes them a while to get used to the silicone lubricants. Although many silicone lubes have a pleasant or neutral odor, some do have a chemical like smell and a distinct, bad taste. A commonly complained about drawback is that silicone based lubes are difficult to wash off of the skin, usually requiring a couple of washings with soap. There are some, however, that are easy to wash off with little effort. Some bonus uses for a good silicone personal lube is that they are great for massages for people who dont like getting all oiled up to get a good rub down. Also, silicone lubricant can be used as a great skin moisturizer. Just be cautious with the silicone lubricant if you own toys that are made with silicone. If you use adult toys that are made of silicone, the silicone lubes can damage them, so keep them separated! Most silicone personal lubes are condom friendly, so suit up and enjoy the smooth, silky glide that is silicone.
