The Kinky Sex
When it comes to using sex toys, having personal lubricants on hand can be a great way of enhancing the amount of pleasure that you experience! The most pleasurable sessions are almost exclusively those which are painfree and well lubed, and so learning how to use personal lubricants is an essential step if you want to improve your sex life with your partner—or on your own!
Choosing the Right Lubricants
The first step in learning how to use personal lubricants is to choose the right lube. There are many different brands of lube on the market nowadays and these vary in their consistency and ease of use.
In addition to this, some lubricants will also come with highly variable price tags and the like; for the best value for money, you should always consider how effective the lube will be as well as the amount of lube that you get for your money. After all, if you are buying a bottle of lube that is a few bucks cheaper than another brand, but you will end up using twice the amount to get the same level of lubrication, then you are definitely not getting the great value for money that you deserve!
Lube can make a session vastly better than it might have otherwise been, but only when you start out with a good quality lube that will be high quality and will help you to reach those intense peaks that we all dream of!
Factors to Consider When Choosing Lubricants
When choosing your lube, you should always consider the following factors in order to decide on the right one for you:
- Product reviews—does the lube do what it claims?
- Price—is it affordable and good value for money?
- Consistency—is the lube consistent in texture and good for providing lubrication?
- Brand—is the lube from a reliable brand in the sex life world?
- Ingredients—is the lube made from ingredients that won’t harm your most sensitive regions?
- Some people, for example, might be prone to getting yeast infections—so don’t make the mistake of choosing a lube that is made with products such as silicon or glycerin.
- Similarly, if you are sensitive, steer clear of paraben based lubes.
- For use with condoms, don’t bother using an oil based lubricant—these will only break down the condom during use, which negates the point of having your partner wear a condom at all!
Most lubricants should be thick and should offer a great level of lubrication during use. It is also important to note that some lubricants—primarily oil and silicon based products—can stain sheeting in some scenarios; while these stains can usually be got out, that poses an additional frustration that none of us need in our modern lives! Choosing a water based lubricant, by contrast, will generally not result in the same degree of staining.
How to Use Personal Lubricants
In order to use personal lubricants effectively, there are a number of things that you need to first understand. Many people are not using lubricants correctly and this can have an impact on both the effectiveness of the lube and their own experiences when using it; as such, learning the proper way to use lube is incredibly important!
Warm The Lube
When using lube, the first thing that you should always do is to ensure that you warm up the lube—no one wants to be using cold lube on such a warm region of your body! This is easy to do by putting a small amount of lube on the palm of your hand and gently working it so as to add heat to the lube, which will also make it less gelatinous and more easy to use.
While doing this, you should also take note of how the lube feels and—for water based lubes—how long it takes for the lube to begin to dry; this will give you a good indicator of how long it will take for your lube to run out, at which point you will need to use more in order to ensure a consistent amount of lubrication during use.
Lube Up!
Next, you should lube everything up. This might seem like a simple and obvious statement to be made, but it is important for you to consider that lube should be applied not only to your body but also to whatever you are using—or, if you are with a parter, they should lube themselves up as well. This will give you the best possible amount of lubrication and will thusly give the most intense sessions!
For men using condoms, it is important to remember to avoid oil based lubricants (as these can rapidly break down the material of the condom). Instead, you should focus on water based lubes primarily. These can be applied to the inside of the condom, just before rolling it onto the penis, or can be put outside of the condom if a more generous amount is desired.
Lubes for Anal
When it comes to anal sex, it is always vital that lube is used. Unlike with the vagina, which can make its own lubrication during sex, anal play does not have this advantage; as such, a generous amount of lube is needed to make anal play enjoyable.
Thick lubricants are generally agreed to be the best for anal sex. It is vital that you always remember to never use a desensitizing lube during anal play; these lubes will stop you from being able to tell when anal sex is getting too rough, which could end painfully if you or your partner ends up getting torn inside due to going at things a little too vigorously!
Having Fun With Lubricants
Once you have chosen the best lubricant for your unique needs, you can expect to get a huge amount of pleasure from your little bottle! Lubes are great for use with both sex toys and with a partner, but remember to lube up generously for both yourself and whatever is being used for the best possible results—otherwise, your lubricated sex session might end up being a bit of an anti climax!
