Several natural oils are acceptable sex lubricants. Dr. Crawford recommends (preferably organic) oils such as: Ice cubes of Xanthan or J-lube® have been used by depth fisters to coat the upper fist chute. Various different ice cube trays create lots of possibilities. Make sure the to eliminate sharp edges. Some trays even allow you to create ice balls (like the one pictured here). Depth Evaluations While all of the above are valid uses, anyone can get a little something from getting slippy. So, if you’re wondering “what is lube?” or “which lube is right for me?”, pens, paper and sex toys at the ready – we’re about to give you the lowdown on all things lube.Where people are unable to obtain personal lubricants, they could use one of the following alternatives: Aloe vera Discard excess lube after play. As hard as you try to avoid contamination, it will happen. Some lubes have very little preservatives and will spoil within a day of being created. From what lube is to how to use it & how to find the right type for your needs, here’s our ultimate guide

Like lipid-based lubes, silicone is hydrophobic (it repels water), and the slipperiness is due to how the molecules interact with each other. Safety and Sanitation Appropriate lube application is critical for any type of fisting. Lubrication of the fist chute for shallow activities best occurs through 'topical' application. Injection or precision fusion (melting) can supplement deeper activities. The general rule is: the slipperier the hole, the easier and less dangerous the fisting. Additionally, keep in mind the following tips and pointers while playing: Lipid-based lubes are composed of fatty acids (usually triglycerides) derived from plants or animals. At room-temperature, they can be in liquid, solid, or semi-solid state. At body temperature, most are liquids. The following table offers a simple summary of the details above, and the overall compatibility of each base for fisting: Category IACS also advise that the oil is also analyzed for oxidation characteristics, e.g. TAN (acid number).Shampoo and hand soaps have a basic pH. A vagina’s pH is naturally acidic. This mismatch can cause vaginal burning and, sometimes, infection.

With condoms: Condoms are usually lubricated, but with intense and/or long-lasting sex, the lubrication will dry out. And a dry condom breaks very easily… so a condom is only as effective as the extra lube you’ll add to it – just make sure you use a water-based lube as an oil-based lube could cause the condom to break.

The Best Bulk-Buy Lube: Slippery Stuff Gel

Measurement of alignment/ offsets of elastic couplings and cardan shafts as well as gap and sag of uncoupled shaft sections. These do not damage condoms or sex toys, and are typically the safest option for intercourse and masturbation. Using a lipid (such as olive oil) will help dissolve the petroleum-based lube enough that the remnants can be washed away with soap and water. Fusion, or the process of changing from solid to liquid (melting), is another method for lubricating shallow and extreme depths. Frozen materials can affect the fist chute in several ways: contracting/tightening the chute, reducing swelling, decreasing soreness & bleeding, and masking warning signs. Unfortunately, since it is silicone-based, it isn’t compatible with silicone sex toys; it can cause them to deteriorate over time. If that’s a dealbreaker for you, we recommend our best water-based lube, LOLA’s Personal Lubricant.

For example, if someone inserts butter into a vagina or anus and does not clean the area properly afterward, the butter may start to spoil and become rancid. This may cause an infection due to bacterial growth. SpitCan you use lotion for lube? Probably not the greatest idea. Honey as lube, even though it may seem “natural,” also isn’t the way to go. Gynecologist Talia Crawford, MD, explains why and answers the question, “What can I use instead of lube?” Types of lubricants Besides the base ingredients of oil, water, or silicone, lubes often have other ingredients to enhance their function. Aloe vera is a common one that provides natural lubrication and moisturization. Vitamin E is another commonly added ingredient with similar benefits to aloe vera. This puppy chew toy (sold at pet stores) can be filled with lube and frozen (with the help of a little duct tape). Insertion an hour before play will result in a pre-lubed hole. Sizes range from beginner to advanced—although only the advanced provides enough lube distribution for basic fisting.

Enter lube. In all likelihood, glycerin-based lubes facilitate the transmission of STIs instead of hindering them: avoid sharing lube and lube containers. Wash up thoroughly between Bottoms. On the plus side, these lubes do not destroy condoms, toys, or gloves.
