11. Use it when you masturbate
Yes, even sex with yourself can be improved with lube. If you have dry hands, no need to use a moisturizing lotion that could contain unwanted chemicals, especially because you don’t want those ingredients inside you. Just apply a few drops of a lube of your choice to your finger before touching yourself for a smoother feel, recommends Bass.
Imagine the electrifying pulse of your favorite vibrator hitting all the right spots. Now imagine using that same toy to gently glide over your clitoris with the same power, but a totally different, more fluid sensation. A dab of lube on a vibrator is a total game-changer. Just be careful: If your sex toy is made of silicone, you’ll definitely want to use a water-based lube, since silicone lubes https://hookupdate.net/tr/down-dating-inceleme/ can deteriorate soft rubber.
13. Use it during vaginal intercourse
There’s no wrong way to use lube during intercourse. You can apply it directly to your body, their body, a toy, or a condom itself. My personal rule of thumb is to start with a dime-size dollop and work up from there. Sure, you may encounter a point at which it’s too much (they’re slipping everywhere, it’s dripping excessively on the sheets, etc.), but that’s easily remedied with a paper towel. You don’t want to reduce all the friction, but that threshold is personal for everyone and you’ll know it when you feel it.
14. Use it inside the condom
If your partner is looking for more ways to increase feeling while using protection, Eric Garrison, sexologist and author of Mastering Multiple-Position Sex, has a suggestion. “Many guys complain that a condom diminishes the sensation,” Garrison previously told Cosmopolitan. “Adding a little lube ups the sensitivity he feels inside the latex.” If you put a drop or two inside the rubber before you unroll it, that might unlock a world of feeling.
15. Use during anal penetration
While you might hit a limit of “yeah, too much” during vaginal intercourse, that threshold will be much lower with anal sex, because unlike your vagina, your booty does not create its own lubricant to make things slidey and glidey. SO LOAD IT ON THERE! When it comes to any butt stuff, too much lube and precaution are never enough.
16. Use it during a blowjob
This might sound counterintuitive, but it’s true! Sex therapist Gina Ogden, PhD, author of The Return of Desire, previously explained: “Women often use spit, but it can be hard to muster up enough. A flavored lube provides enough wetness that your jaw won’t get as tired.” But if having a bunch of liquid (of whatever kind) in your mouth doesn’t sound. well, appetizing, just use the lube strictly for the hand job, mmk?
17. Use it for a sexy massage
Why not try a body-safe lube during nonsexual foreplay? A few squirts can turn a back massage from relaxing to “holy hell, your touch is electrifying, can we please have sex right now?” In fact, lube is a great addition when exploring erogenous zones.”Adding a few drops to nipples can greatly enhance nipple/breast play,” says certified sex educator Irma L. Garcia.
18. Use it for. not sex
Yes, lube is great for sex, but it’s actually good for ordinary, non-sex things too. “A good silicone-based lubricant can actually be used to tame frizzy hair and prevent thigh chafing,” says Velvet Co. sexpert Julieta Chiara. “If you’re traveling somewhere humid, keep some silicone lube on you to rub between your thighs, or in between your palms to run through your hair for shine and a silky feel.” As if you needed another reason to pack some lube in your carry-on.
5. Incorporate it into your hand jobs and/or fingering game
During sex with a male partner, dab a few little droplets of lube onto his perineum-aka the extra-sensitive spot between his scrotum and anus. Just before he orgasms, lightly tap your finger on the lubed-up spot to change the whole damn game and send him over the edge. “Additionally, lube can add a pleasurable if feeling if the testicles are being stimulated or stroked,” says Bass.
