So, being the intrigued yet cautious person that I am, I decided to research the different options for lubricants and learned that not all lubricants are created equal. In short, there are certain lubes that are formulated specifically for use with sex toys, and oil is one of those types.
The reason why oil is a superior choice for sex toys is twofold. Firstly, oil is particularly long-lasting, meaning you don’t have to worry about constantly reapplying it. Not only does it provide a more enjoyable experience, it also reduces the chance of the toy breaking down due to dryness and friction.
Secondly, oil-based lubricants do not evaporate like water-based lubricants, which are notoriously quick-drying. Oil also has the benefit of being thicker and more viscous than water-based lubricants, meaning that it stays in place and won’t end up all over the bed or your partner. The best part about it is that it won’t corrode any materials, making it safe to use with all sorts of sex toys, from silicone to glass.
Overall, oil is the safest and most effective option to use on a dildo. It can provide a longer-lasting session and is easy to clean up after (just use a damp cloth!). Plus, it won’t cause the toy to corrode, and it won’t dry out quickly like water-based lubes.
From my experience, choosing the right lubricant can make or break your experience with a sex dolls toy. I’m sure glad I made the right decision about what kind of oil to put on my dildo or sex dolls I would have been left feeling frustrated and unsatisfied.
Speaking of, while oil is the superior option for lubrication on a dildo, there are other kinds of lubricants to consider. Water-based lubricants are not the best choice for sex toys but can be used if there is no alternative. Silicone-based lubricants form a protective barrier on the skin which reduces sensation and can interfere with toys.
I have found that using a combination of both oil and water-based lubes can be beneficial, as the thicker viscosity of the oil holds the lube in place and the water-based helps to reduce sensation. However, before using any lubricants, it is always best to check with the manufacturer to make sure that the lube will not damage the material of the toy.
Now, what if you don’t want to opt for oil as a lubricant? Well, thankfully, there are plenty of options for lubricants that are specifically made for use with sex toys. One of the most popular ones these days is a hybrid between oil and water-based lubricants, which is often referred to as a “hybrid lubricant”.
This is a great option for those who don’t want to use oil and can provide all the advantages of oil along with the convenience of water-based lubes. Additionally, hybrid lubes are often designed to stay in place for long periods of time without getting sticky or tacky. If you want the best of both worlds, I suggest checking out a hybrid lubricant.
Finally, if you don’t want to bother with any lube at all, you can always opt for natural oils such as olive oil, coconut oil, or even peanut butter. Just be sure to spot test the oil on a small section of the toy first to make sure that it won’t harm the material.
