Members shytigress09 Posted November 30, 2006 Members Report Share Posted November 30, 2006 I tried to find reviews but I didn't see too many. Are water-based lubes the best or should I go for silicone? Are there any water-based that are glycerin-free (other than the too timid kind, I already have some of that lol)? Which brands are the best? I've heard a lot about astroglide...I've tried KY but I didn't really like that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Well, THIS could get confusing! LOL (Meaning the name)I love Astroglide. It's safe for pretty much anything, toys, condoms...Cleans up easily too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members shytigress09 Posted December 1, 2006 Author Members Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 lol I see what you mean!I was looking at Body Fluid by fun factory... but I'm not sure. I'm finally going to see my bf after about 4 months (really long distance). We're going to spend a little over 3 weeks together during both of our christmas holidays. He says I should get a lot, so would silicone be better? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger Posted December 1, 2006 Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 Well, I've only ever used water-based lubes, just because I get bladder infections really easy. If you tend to get yeast, bladder, or bacterial infections, or are planning on using condoms (always recommended) and/or toys, I would stick with the water-based ones.

Members shytigress09 Posted December 1, 2006 Author Members Report Share Posted December 1, 2006 hmm... ok. I'll get some astroglide then! Thanks!!Oh wait! Astroglide has glycerin... does anyone know if it's vegetable glycerin?Nevermind lol I went to the astroglide site. "Are there animal products in Astroglide?There are no animal products in Astroglide."so it must be vegetable glycerin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mike_d Posted December 10, 2006 Members Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 I have some lube that I got from TooTimid called swiss navy, and that stuff Rocks! I am currently working on a review and got the last of the "testing" done yesterday to answer just about any question one might have about it. It's silicone based, but if you want one that is smooth, and ULTRA long lasting, this could be the one you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dollface Posted December 14, 2006 Members Report Share Posted December 14, 2006 I don't care for Astroglide. I've gone through a couple bottles, and it tends to get sticky. Also, it has an unpleasent taste IMO. I really like the TooTimid lube. I've only used it for solo play so far, so I don't know if it has a taste yet. I wish it came in a bigger bottle. Silicone lube is great too, but can be a pain to clean up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silicone lube is great too, but can be a pain to clean up.I have to agree completely. I bought some of the astroglide, because it gets such great reviews, and I thought it was waaaayyy too sticky. I didn't like it at all. I personally love the tootimid lube. Wish they made it in bigger bottles. I bought another water-based to try, it's in the mail, I'll let you know what I think.

I've heard a lot about astroglide...I've tried KY but I didn't really like that one.I'm far older than you, but I found that water-based lubes are best...Mine is glycerine based, but easy cleanup....Having said that, I had to have a hysterectomy at 29, so I needed the lube options... fortunately, my body recovered its' ability to produce lubrication after a time...it's still hit and miss, so I keep backups to be sure....Penny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie turbo240sxsr20 Posted December 16, 2006 Newbie Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 I find SLIPPERY STUFF to be a good one and it dosn't really get sticky like some tend to.GOOD LUCK!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Mikayla1 Posted December 16, 2006 Members Report Share Posted December 16, 2006 To answer this question, I really have to know what you are using the lube FOR! Sex? Anal Sex? Toy Play?The reason I ask that is, if you want it for regular sex - silicone lubricants are really not necessary. Astroglide would probably do the trick.If you want for anal sex - then a silicone lube is what you need. Smoother and much longer lasting. ERos Bodyglide or Swiss Navy are great ones.Now, if you are using it for toy play - you have to be careful, because you can't use a silicone based lubricant with a silicone or cyberskin toy - so you would have to tell me what kind of toy!There is an article on anal sex lubricants that I wrote in the sex ed section and I have reviewed probably 6 lubes in the review section of the FORUM - so check them out!Good Luck!Mikayla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyger Posted December 26, 2006 Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 I too, have heard and known a lot of men that have just used your basic baby oil with regular masturbation. However, I believe that men don't have to be AS careful as women do, when it comes to lubing themselves. But they do need to be a bit carefu, since it isn't impossible for men to get yeast or bladder infections, though not as much so as it is with women. Also, stuff that is made for external use can cause STINGING if it gets inside your soldier's little hole. Women's lubrication goes INSIDE their bodies of course, so women have to be a bit more careful as to what goes up in them. Lotions, Vaseline (or generic petroleum jelly), baby oil, and any other sort of External lubrications can very easily harbor bacteria inside a woman's body. That, coupled with her own secretions, can add up to bladder and/or yeast infections.So, be careful of what goes where!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie eyes1971blue Posted December 26, 2006 Newbie Report Share Posted December 26, 2006 Hi, I am new to this, I was wondering if anyone knows what the best anal lube and toy are to use for a first timer like me, my boyfriend wants to do anal but I know it will hurt, so he usually uses his finger and sometimes he can get 2 fingers in, every now and then that even hurts a little but feels good when its not, I want to let him do me anally but I want to get myself used to it first, whether I do it alone or he helps, so if you know of a toy(s) and lube that is best to use to get us started for anal pentration with the real thing, please let me know, thanks for any help or advice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
