Alix said: ‘The obvious issue lubricant assists with is vaginal dryness, which is far more common than you might assume, and doesn’t just affect older women. Multiple reviewers said that this tastes exactly “like it should,” without any of that chemical or overly sweet taste that consumers of flavored lube fear. It's also non-staining and water-based to boot, so you can use it with a variety of sex toys and condoms. Users say that it’s easy to clean up and lasts a long time, whether it’s used for anal sex, vaginal sex, or as an edible massage oil. It also comes in other flavors like strawberry, cotton candy, birthday cake, and mint chocolate chip.

Pros: compatible with all sex toys and condoms; refreshing flavor; free of sugar, hormones, and parabens; long-lasting; a little goes a long way Lube can even spruce up a handjob, taking it from pleasurable to the "oh-God-wow" realms. The giver can take a dollop in their hands as you stroke up and down the shaft as they perform the handjob and the slipperiness will offer extra pleasure to the receiver. Coating your hands in lube during any kind of hand play will up the ante for you and your partner. Vaseline is also unsafe to use with latex condoms due to the mineral oils it contains.

Muc-Off's wet lube formula contains no harmful acids, CFCs or solvents, as well as being biodegradable. It features the company's integral Extreme Pressure Additives coat for increased efficiency in the drive chain.

Pros: Longer-lasting than water-based lubes; cushiony enough for anal; safe to use with condoms and non-silicone sex toys; hypoallergenic; vegan Alix said: ‘Dryness can sometimes be a sign that we’re not turned on: our vaginal juice may not be flowing like a river because whatever’s happening sexually isn’t floating our boat. Anal play requires generous amounts of lube as, unlike the vagina, the anus cannot produce its own natural moisture. Before rolling on a condom, place the ‘gift’ of a small drop or two of water-based lube inside the end. Of course, this is not the case. Lube is for all, regardless of sexuality or what type of sex you’re having. In fact, it can make all types of sex so much more pleasurable. How can lube improve my sex life?

So in the spirit of full disclosure, I'm going to give you the dish on the behind-the-scenes action, which is way sillier than it is sordid. Because hey, how many secrets can you reasonably expect to keep when you're naked on the Internet? As Nash also points out: “Value is an issue — in a bottle of wet lube, 100 percent of the formula will lubricate. In a dry lube, some of the formula is solvent, which is there just to aid application.” Cannabidiol, more commonly known as CBD, has exploded in popularity in recent years, and companies have infused everything from coffee to lotion to facial care with the hemp-based compound. And, to no one's surprise, CBD-based sexual lubricants have also hit the market. How often you need to lube your chain depends on how frequently you ride your bike and the conditions in which you ride it. Pros: Contains moisturizing ingredients; compatible with all sex toys and with latex and polyisoprene condoms; sleek branding
