That's all ? That no ! Some so-called moisturizing lubricants such as the YESforLOV intimate moisturizing gel are used daily to prevent intimate vulvar and vaginal dryness and relieve intimate burning sensations, tingling or vulvar irritation.

Sex is not just a penetration

The intimate lubricants available in your favorite love shop or pharmacy are not only dedicated to penetration. You can use them when you are alone or with others to caress and enjoy all these amorous foreplay that is sometimes much more delicious than a banal back and forth with bad rhythm. In our hetero-normed society, we too often tend to think that sex can only be summed up by the simple, more or less gentle intromission of an object or of a sex because it would be the very imprint of good sexual health of the couple. The penetration would mark with the male ejaculation the beginning and the end of the report. Wrongly accused or not, this sexual practice turns out to be that of ordinary mortals, and for the less greedy of sex, a very sad one-way street! It would be a shame not to look into other practices that are just as erotic and orgasmic as each other. Blowjob, cunnilingus, massages in all directions, the natural intimate lubricant accompanies you discreetly in all your exercises and pleasures of sex. You would be wrong to deprive yourself of it or to restrict the use of this intimate lubricant” to only penetration, whether vaginal or anal. In the same vein, it is wrong to claim that this intimate lubricant is only recommended for women who have to deal with repeated or even chronic vaginal dryness or a flagrant lack of excitement. The process of feminine lubrication, complex in its course, still too little explained to the public, is not only linked to the simple state of excitement. All these received ideas are obviously false and remain only fallacious prejudices that we must fight.

SOME PRECAUTIONS BEFORE APPLYING INTIMATE LUBRICANT: THE DO'S AND DON'T'S

WHAT ARE THE PRECAUTIONS FOR USE BEFORE USING AN INTIMATE LUBRICANT?

The ABC in simple reminder with the theoretical bases:

  • Intimate lubricant is not a contraceptive.
  • Essential hygiene measure: wash your hands before using the lubricant.
  • Never use lubricant if you have a skin lesion.
  • In the event of a skin problem and possibly a skin reaction to follow, it is recommended to stop all use of lubricant and consult a doctor.
  • A lubricant should not be applied in combination with other products on the same area without medical advice (possible allergy problems to be monitored)
  • In case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with water.

Imperative: respect the expiry date of the product to avoid any risk of contamination. This date which is to be remembered is generally found on the tube or on the packaging of the product.

WHAT ARE THE MISTAKES NOT TO MAKE WITH AN INTIMATE LUBRICANT?

Silly question ? Not so much since there are rules to know about the use of an intimate lubricant. Here are 3 mistakes not to make when using an intimate lubricant:

  • If you use a sex toy based on medical silicone, be aware that silicone-based lubricants are not compatible. They tend to double the silicone. Do you have doubts ? Take a look at our compatibility tests and discover in pictures the effects of these silicone-based lubricants on medical silicone sex toys.
  • If you use a condom, take into account that oily compounds such as coconut oil, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, beeswax or petroleum jelly are not compatible with latex condoms. Did you know ? The lubricant previously put on the condom does not have the function of lubricating the sexual intercourse, it is only there to unroll the condom and many of us are unaware of it. The most effective, the most comfortable, is to apply a small amount of intimate lubricant directly to the penis to facilitate donning and over the condom to facilitate sliding and avoid friction.
  • If you use a lubricant, prefer those that respect the vaginal pH , preferably a pH between 4 and 5 to preserve the acidity of the vagina and maintain the balance of the vaginal microbiota. To date, it is difficult to know the pH of lubricants available on the market. As far as YESforLOV lubricants are concerned, we have opted for transparency. You will find this important data and its explanation in our product sheets. Take the opportunity to learn more about the impact of the pH of your lubricants on your vaginal microbiota.


And after all that, what do we do? Where do we put lube? In fact, it's up to you, it's a bit of "I put it where I want" and it's probably in the quality of this intimate lubricant that the choice of use is will prove the best. Concretely and most often, water-based lubricants can be used directly on all the most erogenous zones: the penis, vagina and clitoris and their environment, the anus. Silicone-based lubricants can be used on the entire body for massage, for the prevention and the unfortunate consequences of repeated friction caused by too intensive sports activity or more simply by holding clothes that are too tight.
