What Are the Different Types of Lube?

Not all lubricants are the same, and choosing the right one depends on how you plan to use it. Here are the main types:

Water-Based Lube

Water-based lubricants are the most versatile. They’re safe to use with all sex toys, easy to clean, and available in a variety of formulations. Whether you prefer a light, natural feel or a thick, long-lasting glide, there’s a water-based option for you.

Silicone Lube

Looking for a longer-lasting glide? Silicone-based lubricants don’t dry out quickly, making them perfect for extended pleasure sessions. Contrary to common belief, silicone lube is safe for use with genuine silicone sex toys—just do a patch test first to be sure.

Hybrid Lube

A mix of water and silicone, hybrid lubricants offer the best of both worlds. They provide the slickness of silicone while remaining easy to clean like water-based lubes. Many hybrids are also safe for a variety of toy materials.

Anal Lube

Since the anal area doesn’t produce its own natural lubrication, a thicker, long-lasting anal lube is essential for comfort and safety. Many anal lubes are silicone-based or hybrid for extra cushioning.

Oil-Based Lube

Great for massage and masturbation, oil-based lubricants provide a rich, smooth texture. However, they’re not compatible with latex condoms and can be harder to clean.

Sexual Lubricant Guides

I have written a series of guides to sexual lubricants, please find them below:

Why Use Lube?

Adding a quality lubricant to your play can:

  • Enhance comfort and prevent friction
  • Increase sensitivity for heightened pleasure
  • Make sex toys and penetrative play more enjoyable
  • Help if your body doesn’t produce enough natural lubrication

Durex Play Feel Water Based Lube Review

Price:
£3.99
Brand:
Durex
Materials:
Water
The lubricant forms a nice slick barrier against friction and lasts for an acceptable amount of time before needing to be reapplied. (Water based lubricants dry quicker than silicone or oil based lubricants but being water based, Durex Play Feel is suitable for use with sex toys, the others, not so much.)

I've been very fortunate to recently receive a care package from Durex, which includes a variety of sex toys as well as lubricants which I will be reviewing in due course. They were sent to me free of charge by Durex in exchange for my fair and honest reviews. Last week I gave the Durex Play Tingle Lube a try.

It's £4 for a golden ampoule of Sensuva ON Natural Arousal Oil For Her goodness; I think it's a fair price for that boosted arousal effect that can actually be felt. It did work for me and next time I think I'll go for the larger balm or oil bottle. Before a night out, this would be absolutely amazing.
