Kesän liukkaat!

Summer slips!

Sometimes you come across the idea that lubricants are only useful for butt sex or for intimate problems such as dry mucous membranes. Of course, using lubricant is more than appropriate in these situations, but the possibilities of lubricants are much broader than this! There are many types of lubricants, for many needs and many wishes.

Intended use influences the choice

Lubricant can help relieve discomfort caused by dry mucous membranes, replace natural moisture, or provide additional moisture when needed. We strongly recommend using lubricant with sex toys. Lubricant is also helpful when using geisha balls, for example. Lubricant adds a challenge to the practice and helps with inserting the balls.

This means that lubricant is also relevant in summer for purposes other than sex, as you can apply it to your thighs, for example, to help prevent chafing. Lubricant can also lubricate a full-body massage, help insert a menstrual cup, protect mucous membranes, etc. And of course, the obvious purpose of use, to add some fun by adding variety to sex. The purpose of use is a key factor when choosing the right lubricant.

Before purchasing a lubricant, it's worth considering what kind of needs you and your potential partner have for a lubricant.
Is lubricant for sex or other uses?
Would lubricant primarily bring comfort, variety, stimulation to sex, or perhaps all of these?
Do you need a product specifically suited for butt sex?
Are condoms or sex toys involved in the games?
What about using lubricant for full-body massage?
All of these factors influence which lubricant would be the best choice.
Different types of lubricants

Broadly speaking, lubricants are manufactured as water-based, silicone-based, and hybrids.
with a composition combining water- and silicone-based raw materials. There are also oil-based lubricants, but we do not have them in our selection at Erotic Time. Oils are not compatible with condoms and most sex toys, as they weaken the materials of condoms and toys. For the same reason, massage oils or natural oils such as coconut oil should never be used as lubricant if you are using a condom or sex toys that are not made of glass or metal. Of course, oils are great for external massage!

Water-based lubricants

Water-based lubricants are available in a basic, odorless and tasteless version that is perfect for all types of sex, but also in versions with many different features.

Water-based lubricants can have a consistency ranging from runny to gel-like or even creamy. Lubricants with a thin consistency are great for all types of sex. In some cases, Thicker lubricants have a longer glide and are great for butt sex, for example. Water-based lubricants, on the other hand, have a shorter glide than silicone, hybrid and oil-based lubricants.

Flavored creams

Generally speaking, all flavored lubricants are water-based lubricants. They are safe to lick and taste on your partner's body and mucous membranes. Flavored lubricants bring a nice change to sex and make giving oral sex even more enjoyable.  😉 With a variety of flavor options from different manufacturers, you're sure to find something to suit all tastes! Which would you prefer? fruity flavors , vanilla or maybe chocolate?

Stimulating lubricants

You can also add variety and excitement to your sex with various stimulating lubricants, most of which are water-based. There are many different types of stimulating properties: warming , cooling , tingly ticklish and even give a vibrating sensation! Try it alone or with your partner(s), whichever you prefer. 😉

Products suitable for full body massage

Water-based lubricants suitable for full-body massage are true multi-purpose products. The composition of these products is more durable in terms of glide than most other water-based lubricants. In addition to full-body massage, the products also work great in their traditional use as a lubricant and are compatible with all sex toys and condoms. So you can massage your partner's body very thoroughly without worry! 😉

Among the products intended for massage, there are also products whose composition resembles massage oil without containing oil. For example, Shunga's wonderful massage creams can be left on the intimate area as a lubricant after the massage and are suitable for use with condoms and toys. These beauties warm up slightly to the touch and entice you to play with caresses with their taste, smell and feel. Shunga's massage cream is available in eleven different flavors, from vanilla berries to the flavors .

Special needs

Lubricants can sometimes cause irritation to mucous membranes, especially if the skin is particularly sensitive. Of course, it is not always clear which ingredient is causing the irritation, but glycerin is a common culprit. We also have a water-based glycerin-free option in our range, which is suitable for many people when other lubricants are not suitable.

Sometimes, for example, BDSM play requires a lubricant that is safe to use even inside the urethra. For this purpose, there is a medical grade sterile lubricant that is water-based.

Water-based lubricants are also available in vegan and natural cosmetics. So it's possible to follow your own values ​​when it comes to lubricants!

Hybrid lubricants

Hybrid lubricants combine the best of silicone-based and water-based lubricants. The consistency is often even a bit creamier and more like a water-based lubricant than a silicone-based lubricant. However, the silicone in the formula increases the glide. These lubricants are great for all kinds of sex.

Silicone-based lubricants

Silicone-based lubricants are a great choice when you need extra-strong glide. Unlike water-based lubricants, silicone does not evaporate during use. The absolute advantage of silicone lubricants is that their glide lasts and lasts and you don't need to add product during use. Silicone-based lubricants are particularly effective and even a very small amount of lubricant goes a long way!

Any silicone-based lubricant is fine for butt-fucking. However, due to the long-lasting glide of silicone, most lubricants specifically designed for butt-fucking are also silicone-based. These lubricants can have different properties, for example: relaxing ingredients .

Silicone-based lubricants are also ideal for full-body massages due to their glide. Our most popular silicone-based lubricant is called Body glide ! The high-quality Eros product is odorless, has a neutral taste and does not contain dyes or preservatives. The simple composition is well tolerated and is also suitable for most people who have experienced irritation from other lubricants. Eros' silicone-based lubricant does not contain fat or oil, but the composition may even be oily, i.e. very slippery and runny. The product is suitable both as a lubricant for intimate areas and as a multi-purpose product for the entire body. The silicone-based product forms a protective film and this jar is also worth reaching for when, for example, your thighs rub together.

There are many options for lubricants for various pleasurable moments, but also for other uses when you need to glide for the summer. We are happy to help you choose a lubricant! Come visit our store and we will make your summer glide too. 😉
Enjoyable summer to you <3
