Silicone lubricants have long been considered a “premium” lubricant because of its many qualities: -
-
Slippery and smooth, silicone lubricant forms a sheer layer which your skin simply glides over
-
Since these lubes contain no water, they take much longer to dry, staying slick for a long time
-
Non-irritating, silicone is great for people with sensitive skin
-
Reapply less frequently, a few drops go a long way
-
Feels slick and slippery, not sticky after a few minutes of use
-
Can be used for full body massage, may be left on skin for moisturising effect
-
Since it doesn’t break down in water, can be used in the shower or bath, or underwater or in the rain (if you’re into that)
-
Latex-safe
-
Does not contain glycerin
-
Does not promote yeast and other vaginal infections
-
Has not been shown to increase the risk for HIV transmission during anal intercourse, as some water-based lubes have
