I'm SO glad I ordered some! I'm really excited, lmao.silicon is best by far. Once you have applied it there is no need for more plus you can use a smaller amount tooI sure it is what they use in porn because you cant really see it. They have to use something.. there is no way they do anal without lube.
I spoke with a lady at the porn shop down the road from my house, she told me silicone. She says it stays slick for a very long time, great for her toys....I felt tempted to ask her if it was a good substitute for WD-40, she made is sound like it had just as many uses.
Silicon is the way to go. Not only is it very slick and long lasting for sex,but it can be great for other things as well. I had to replace some "oh" rings in my kitchen sink spout. I kept replacing "oh" rings, and when I would push the goose neck downspout over the stub, the "oh" rings would rip. Finally I lubed the "oh" rings with a bit of my Wet silicon lubricant, and the goose neck spout slid right over the "oh" rings without ripping them, and there is zero water leakage.
Marley, silicon based lubes are not oil based. So the worry about condom break down is not relevant.
She may have said this because many women say water-based lubes cause yeast infections.
About colorectal cancer
It's an article about colon cancer, but it briefly discusses how the rectum absorbs liquid. Would you rather have your rectum absorbing a water-based substance or an oil-based one?
I know I'm a first time poster, but really, that article says nothing about lube! If you research silicone lubricant, you'll find that it is perfectly safe for condoms, and generally, this stuff wouldn't be allowed by the FDA if it posed significant danger to health.
Here is a link that talks about this stuff: Silicone-Based Lubricants - Silicone Lubrication Products
I read that some of the walls that are rubbed against during sex are absorbant. If thats the case, water-based is better cuz you don't want oily chemicals being absorbed into your body. The only drawback being having to pull out and reapply sporadically, but that beats having foreign chemicals absorbed into your body.
The Silicone lubes don't seem to provide me with enough slide - i have to keep using large amounts of silicone, and especially during anal sex, the silicone doesn't work well. I have just discovered a formula of 'WET' water-based lube called WET HOT. It warms when you rub. This water based lube seems to last a very long time without having to reapply it. It cleans up easily - i find the silicone lubes tend to soak into the skin more.
Eros is so super expensive, at least it's very expensive where I live. A 280ml bottle is about $40.
