What is Anal Lube?

Anal lube is a kind of personal lubricant specifically designed for use during anal sexual activities. Anal play lubes come in a wide variety of options and can be used on the body during foreplay and other sexual activities.

Many lubricants are safe for anal sex, but there are products that are specifically marketed or designed to enhance enjoyment of anal sex. Often, this is simply a thicker gel rather than a liquid. This thicker consistency is preferable because it helps the lubricant stay in place. (Wikipedia)

While many people can produce vaginal fluids in amounts sufficient for natural lubrication during vaginal sex and clitoral stimulation, the anal canal doesn't produce enough lubrication for comfortable anal sex. That's why it's important to always use at least some lubricant during anal play. It helps reduce friction, prevent anal fissures and tissue trauma.

Just like personal lubricants designed to reduce vaginal dryness, anal lubricants offer varying formulas for any kind of butt play. Silicone-based lubricants are the longest-lasting and can be a great option for couples play. Thanks to hypoallergenic qualities and slippery texture, they are perfect for people with sensitive skin and other skin conditions.

Oil-based lubricants are another popular option. They often contain natural ingredients, such as olive oil, coconut oil, aloe vera and jojoba extracts. Many use them as massage oils during foreplay and other activities. Water based and hybrid lube options are compatible with all sex toys and condoms.

Anal lubricants, known as 'numbing lubes,' contain topical anesthetics that reduce the feeling of discomfort or pain during anal play. When absorbed by the skin, they decrease sensitivity in the area and provide an easing effect.

How to Use Anal Lubes on the Body with Toys and Condoms

While using anal lubes is very easy and intuitive, there are some anal lube recommendations you may want to keep in mind.

Explore your options to choose the type of lube that best fits your needs. Remember, there are three main kinds of lube: water, oil and silicone based.

Silicone-based lubes last longer and are hypoallergenic, but they are not compatible with silicone sex toys.

Oil-based lubricants are sensual and long-lasting, but they can break your latex condom.

Hybrid or water based lubes won't stay on as long as silicone lubes, but they are compatible with any sex toy, including silicone toys, and are completely condom-friendly.

As natural and water-based lubricants evaporate fast, remember to reapply them when needed. Adding a bit of water can also help reactivate the slippery effect of your water-based formula.
