Oil Based verse Water Based Lube?

What is your preference?

With Oil based, you need special non latex condoms, which I like much better than Latex. I have used Foria (CBD & Coconut oil) based and it think its awesome, especially bareback. Water based doesn't last imo and its not as natural as oil. I wish I had used lube in my 20's.

 

Always oil based, far better feeling, and as sex is always bareback no need to worry about the issues with condoms you rightly mention.

 

Water based for us as many toys are silicone based . Many oil based lubes degrade silicone .

 

Can't beat Albolene for, uh.... hand based activities. A little dab will do yah.... One for toys is plain aloe, cheap, clear, unscented, easy to clean.

 

I was under the impression that if you clean the silicone toy out, it doesn't effect the toy. That's what I've read online.

I read something today that said Oil based can increase the risk of infection. Has anyone had any issue with this?

 

Water based. We like NAKD and Lubido. Won't harm silicone toys either

 

As a side note: Recently, We used coconut oil with another couple and love it. It’s natural and washes out easily.

 

Yes! We love using Coconut Oil too for Sexy massages. Lots of slippery fun to be had

 

This is a snippet from Lovehoney Lube advice . Silicone Lubricant I think is another term for oil based lube.

"Silicone lubricant is great for many things, but it shouldn't be used with silicone sex toys or realistic feel sex toys. This is because the silicone in your lubricant and the silicone or real-feel material of your toy may not be compatible."

 

As long as you aren't using toys, the silicone base is my favorite... it lasts a lot longer than water based, doesn't become sticky as it dries and it's a wonderfully smooth lubricant.

 

For fucking, I use Kay jelly but for masturbation, water-based lotion.
I diluted it with water usually two parts lotion and one part water. The sensation is perfect and the stroking is easier.

 

Adding all the above, We also carry with us, when we are at resorts, something called “Fuck Water”. It’s silicone based and used for intimate times in pools and hot tubs. You only need a little on your cock and she only needs a small amount too. It stays on. Slips right in.

 

The best lube I have found is called JO H2O and I can only find it at a store called Lion's Den. It lasts, does not get sticky, for long term use excellent results.
