Silicone Based Sex Lube

Silicone-based lubes are sticky, long-lasting, silky smooth lubes used for sex. They are mainly used for complicated sexual scenarios with sex toys involved. 

Compared to water-based lube, silicone lube is thicker and lasts longer. Meanwhile, compared to oil-based lube, silicone is easier to clean and is compatible with rubber toys.

When Are Silicone-Based Lubes Preferred?

Silicone-based lubes are used for anal sex and for long, extended sessions in general. You don’t have to reapply silicone lube too often, as it’s thick and doesn’t dry easily.  

The stickiness also means it’s suitable for use in the shower as the water doesn’t wash it away. 

Are Silicone-Based Lubes Safe with Condoms and Toys?

Silicone lube is safe with condoms, as it’s made of rubber. But you can not use silicone lube with silicone sex toys, though all other material is fair game. 

How Long Does Silicone-Based Lube Last?

Depending on the brand, silicone lube can last over 30 minutes even if you apply it once. 

Why Are Silicone-Based Lubes Not Compatible with Silicone Toys?

Silicone-based lube and silicone toys share the same chemical properties. If you use them together, the chemical reaction can cause the toy to degrade over time.

Can Using Silicone-Based Lubes Cause Skin Irritation or Breakouts?

The presence of glycerin and paraben can cause skin irritation, whether in silicone lube or water-based lube. Silicone, itself, due to its sticky nature, can cause acne or skin allergies if it’s not cleaned properly. 

The silicone ends up clogging the pores, causing skin damage. So, if you have oily skin, make sure to get every bit of the silicone lube off of you.

How to Properly Clean Off Silicone-Based Lubes from Skin and Fabrics?

Use warm water and soap to get silicone lube off your genitals and skin. Make sure to give yourself a good scrub and rinse off any residue with cool water. You can also use wet wipes for good measures.

As for getting rid of silicone lube from any fabric, apply laundry pre-treatment on the stain. Or if you would rather use something natural, you can cover the spot with cornstarch and rub it with your fingers.

Run the fabric through a laundry cycle and air dry it at last.
