Comment bien choisir son lubrifiant : Guide Complet - Oui boutique sensuelle

Ah, lubricant, this discreet but essential ally in the intimate lives of many couples. But with so many choices available on the market, it can be difficult to know which one to choose.

In this article, we'll explore the different types of lubricants available, including those with flavors, water-based, oil-based, and silicone-based, so you can make an informed choice and take full advantage of your intimate moments.

1. Lubricant with Flavors:
Flavoured lubes can add a fun and exciting touch to your intimate games. Available in a variety of flavors from strawberry to chocolate to mint, these lubricants are perfect for those who want to spice up their sex life. A current staff favourite is the peach flavoured lubricant by JO H2O


2. Water Based Lubricant:
Water-based lubricants are the most versatile and commonly used. They are compatible with all types of condoms and sex toys, and are easy to clean. Plus, they're gentle on the skin and don't leave sticky residue. Perfect for those who prefer a light, natural feel. 

Luxe, organic water-based lubricant by Sutil contains extra hyaluronic acid to boost hydration of the genitals. It is our favourite for sensitive skin.

Dame's Aloe-Vera lubricant can be a good compromise to water-based lubricants and is as hydrating. Aloe's texture resembles natural vaginal lubrication. 

3. Oil Based Lubricant:
Oil-based lubricants are thicker and longer-lasting than water-based ones, making them perfect for sensual massages, prolonged intercourse as well as anal sex. Wild Things by Intamo contains several organic oils and is super hydrating and nourishing.

However, they are not compatible with latex condoms as they can make them porous and can damage some silicone sex toys. Be sure to use them carefully and clean them thoroughly after use.

4. Silicone-Based Lubricant :
Silicone-based lubricants provide long-lasting lubrication and a silky, slippery feel. They are perfect for sex in the shower or in water, as they do not dissolve on contact with water. Überlube is worldwide best-selling silicone lube.

 However, they are not compatible with silicone sex toys and may leave stains on sheets.


Whether you're looking for a lubricant to spice up your intimate play, for daily use or for prolonged intercourse, there is an option to suit your needs. Taking into account your personal preferences, compatibility with condoms and sex toys, and desired sensation, you can choose the perfect lubricant for you and your partner.
