Lube, or lubricant, is a fluid used to reduce friction, increase glide, and enhance comfort and pleasure during sex. Lube can be used by anyone who wants to experience more pleasure and comfort during any type of sex including anal, vaginal and oral sex, foreplay, and masturbation (selfpleasuring).
It’s important to use the right lube. For example, oilbased lube will damage latex condoms. Since most condoms are made from latex, it’s best to use waterbased or silicone lube.
Lube is particularly important for anal sex, as the anus does not produce natural lubricant.
So, let’s take a look at what lube is, why and how you should use it, and how to choose the best lube for you!
