Anal Lube Reviews: The Best Lubes for Comfort & Pleasure

When it comes to anal play, choosing the right lubricant is essential for both comfort and safety. The rectum isn’t self-lubricating, so using a high-quality anal sex lubricant can make all the difference. The best formulas provide long-lasting slickness, a cushioning effect, and are body-safe for worry-free pleasure. But with so many options on the market, how do you know which ones actually deliver? My anal lube reviews take the guesswork out of shopping, offering in-depth insights on the best brands available.

Why a Good Anal Lubricant is Essential

Unlike regular lubricants, anal lubes are specially designed to provide extra thickness, longer-lasting slickness, and a friction-reducing cushion. This not only enhances pleasure but also helps prevent irritation and discomfort during penetration. Whether you're new to anal play or experienced, investing in the right lube is a must.

Top Anal Lubes I’ve Reviewed

After testing a wide range of products, I’ve found some standout anal lubricants that truly live up to their promises. Here are three top-rated options featured in my anal lube reviews:

MEO Eros Fisting Gel

This ultra-thick, water-based lubricant from MEO is ideal for those who need extra cushioning and long-lasting lubrication. The gel-like texture ensures it stays in place, providing smooth and comfortable penetration without frequent reapplication.

Pjur Back Door Silicone Lubricant

Pjur is a trusted name in the lube world, and their Back Door Silicone Lubricant is perfect for deep, long-lasting slickness. Its high-quality silicone formula is condom-safe and offers a silky-smooth glide that won’t dry out, making it great for extended play.

Bondara Essentials Anal Lube

For an affordable yet effective option, Bondara’s Essentials Anal Lube delivers. It’s a water-based formula that offers a thick, cushiony texture while being easy to clean up. Perfect for beginners and experienced users alike.

YES BUT Water Based Anal Lube Review

Price:
£9.95
Texture wise YES BUT Water Based Anal Lube is super thick, it's silky to the touch which surprised me, I've only found that sort of texture before in glycerine containing water based lubes which I actively avoid.
Pjur Back Door Silicone Anal Lubricant Review

Pjur Back Door Relaxing Silicone Anal Lube Review

7 out of 10
Price:
£14.99
Brand:
Pjur
Materials:
Silicone
This is definitely a good lube; I like the consistency and it was very easy to insert fingers and the plug without any pain from friction. However, the “relaxing” effect feels a bit overhyped, as our muscles didn’t feel any different than usual with other anal lubes. Due to that and the fact that we don’t prefer silicone lubes, I can’t see myself switching from my preferred product, but did enjoy the experience with this one.

MEO RushTime Anal Sex Lube review: Sensation lubes are brilliant for introducing an exciting new dimension to sex. Warming, cooling or tingling sensations can really heighten sensitivity and spice things up.

Overall this lube does everything it says on the bottle it's not misleading and it works, boy does it work! If you're into heavy anal sessions or are even a little afraid of trying anal this might just be for you.

Pjur Back Door Silicone Anal Lube Review

5 out of 10
Price:
£14.99
I enjoyed using the Pjur Back Door Silicone Anal Lube. I personally felt numb, which is odd because there are no antithetic properties; so I personally think that the numbing I experienced was my body reacting to one of the ingredients. Keep in mind that this lube is silicone, so I was limited about what toys I would test with it. I have a hard time putting in my glass plug from Lovehoney, it usually takes me around 10 minutes to insert from start to finish. Using the Pjur Back Door Lube it only took me about 3 minutes.

MEO AlphaMale Water Based Anal Lube Review

3 out of 10
Price:
£11.50
Brand:
MEO
Shop:
MEO.de
Materials:
Water
The lube arrived wrapped in plastic, which is great for those who like the piece of mind knowing that their lube hasn't been tampered with before use. The MEO AlphaMale Water Based Anal Lube is free from parabens, but it does contain glycerin and propylene glycol, so if you have known sensitivities to these ingredients, I'd give this lube a miss. I have encountered sensitivities to these things before, although it doesn't happen with every product, so I knew a patch test would be essential. All seemed to be fine following this, so we went ahead and used it for its designed purpose.

Pjur Back Door Relaxing Silicone Anal Lubricant Review

7 out of 10
Price:
£14.99
In our opinion (for what it is worth) we would recommend the product but, to people who enjoy more regular anal play within their repertoire than most, we are no strangers to anal play but as more of an occasional adventure than a regular occurrence and don’t see ourselves changing from our own preferred product to this at this time.

Pjur Back Door Relaxing Silicone Anal Glide Review

9 out of 10
Price:
£14.99
The Pjur Back Door Relaxing Silicone Anal Glide instructions state to put a reasonable amount on your finger and slowly rub around the anus. Mr Banana couldn’t wait to crack on with this. I found this warm up period very relaxing and also incredibly erotic. I positioned myself in doggy so I could play with my clit at the same time.

Pjur Back Door Silicone Anal Lubricant Review

In use I really didn't enjoy the decreased sensations and perversely I think I was less relaxed than normal. When warming me up a minute or so after applying the lube, he managed to get three fingers in without me realising, it just felt like the normal one or two. During anal I definitely couldn't feel him as much inside me which is a huge negative for me as I love the stretch and "naughty" sensations of anal.

We always use condoms when having anal sex; again we previously used ordinary lube.  I explained that we did not need as much of this lube.  WOW! I have to say this lube from MEO made anal sex even more pleasurable, again no dragging sensation, so his cock glided in and out a lot easier.

On the cold toys the MEO Extreme Anal Lube was quite thick and I needed, what seemed like, a lot to cover them to my satisfaction. On first insertion the lube was a little “grabby” and not as slippy as I would have liked, but it go better as it warmed up. It became obvious at this point that the numbing effect is only skin deep and didn’t affect the inner sphincter muscles.

Welcome to my big Pjur anal sex lubricants review! I have decided to review these two Pjur lubricants together, because as far as I can tell, they are the same product with different labels. I have checked the ingredients in both the Pjur Analyse Me and the Pjur Back Door Comfort Glide, and they match exactly. 

Cal Exotics Lube Tube Lubricant Applicator Syringes Review

3 out of 10
I feel that an additional use for these Cal Exotics Lube Tube Lubricant Applicator Syringes would be as part of Medical Fetish scenes. When engaging in Doctor or Nurse and patient roleplay, you could have fun simulating injections or suppositories of a genital or anal nature.
