Silicone-based lubes

What is a silicone-based personal lube?

Our lubes made from silicone include high-quality silicone. Silicone is bigger than the pores of the skin so it remains on the surface of your skin. If forms a breathable protective film which gives you lubrication for an extremely long time and leaves your skin with a silky feeling.

These are our most popular silicone lubes: pjur ORIGINAL & pjur WOMAN

Here you can find even more silicone lubes. Is your favorite personal lube one of these?

Our tip: You should always use a silicone-based personal lube for anal sex! A silicone-based lube will feel best for you because there is a lack of natural moisture in this area.

Water-based lubes

Water-based personal lube is mainly made from water. It is absorbed into the top layers of the skin and moisturizes your vaginal mucous membrane. pjur water-based personal lubes are enriched with natural substances, which moisturize the mucous membrane of your vagina and care for your skin at the same time.

These are just a few of our water-based personal lubes: pjur AQUA, pjur WOMAN AQUA & pjur WOMAN Nude

Here you can find even more. You will surely find the right water-based lube for you among them!

Our tip: Repeatedly reapply our water-based personal lubes so you can experience many sensual moments.

Hybrid lubes

Hybrid personal lubes are water-based but they contain a small share of silicone, making them perfectly suitable for use with sex toys. They can be used with all sex toys, regardless of the material they are made from. Of course, they also provide lubrication for a long time. So the next time you use your toys, these lubes are the perfect choice. 😉

We bring the benefits of water and silicone together in our pjur Toy Lube.

You can also find oil-based lubes available from other vendors – but not from us. We do not sell these types of lubes and would not recommend them, because they are not water-soluble and therefore have to be washed off with soap. You also cannot use them with condoms.

When selecting your personal lube, take the time you need! If you are clear about which aims and desires you have for your sex life, you should make sure you have invested enough time and use a lube that has the best quality and consistency.

Once you have decided on a lube, we will tell you how you can apply the lube correctly so that you can use it right away.

By the way: The lube can feel a little cold when you begin using it, but it will warm up quickly to the temperature of your skin. The most important thing is that it feels comfortable for you.

Do you still have a few other questions about the topic of personal lubes? You are not alone, and we have many answers for you here.

How much lube is really needed?

Naturally, it always depends on how much you need at the time and what it is being used for, but we recommend starting with a nickel-sized amount of lube. It is best to just apply it to your finger and try a little bit out to see if the amount is enough for you. You can always still apply more later 😉

Why is using lube a MUST when having anal sex?

Using lube is a MUST when having anal sex

There is no natural moisture in the anal area, which is why using a lube here is a MUST. Otherwise you risk injuries through too much friction, ruining your sensual moment. For this reason, there is no such thing as having too much lube when having anal sex, and it is best to select one that is specially made for anal sex.

How long does lube stay good to use?

You can find a use-by date on our personal lubes. This is the date up until they can be used if the bottles have not been opened yet. Once they are opened, this changes. Our personal lubes usually have a shelf-life of 5 years. Once you have opened the lube you can use it for up to six months unless the use-by date on the product is at an earlier point in time.

Lube and sensitive skin – Is that a problem?

Your intimate area is just as important to us as it is to you

Your intimate area is just as important to us as it is to you. For this reason, we make sure that our lubes feel good for you during sex and afterwards. Some of our personal lubes even give your skin extra care. If you have sensitive skin, our water-based lubes with soothing active ingredients are a great choice for you.

The pjur med REPAIR GLIDE, for example, is a water-based personal lube with hyaluron, which boosts your love life. It regenerates your skin over the long-term, enhances foreplay through the long-lasting lubrication and creates sensual moments.

Is lube safe during oral sex?

Do you enjoy oral sex but are unsure whether lube is ok to use? Our answer: If your lube contains harmless active ingredients, you can use it 😊 You should really only be mindful of the quality of your lube. This blog article will help you find out what you should keep in mind when buying a personal lube.

Personal lubes and condoms

Personal lubes and condoms – what you need to consider

When using personal lubes and condoms, you must be a little careful, because some lubes can weaken the material that condoms are made out of so that they are no longer safe to use. Oil-based lubes, for example, can damage condoms. However, you can be sure that our lubes are ok since they have all undergone a condom test and are compatible with latex condoms.

Using personal lubes with your sex toys

You can use water-based personal lubes with sex toys! It is always important to be a little careful with silicone-based lubes. There are some silicones that can corrode toys made out of silicon. We have had our silicone-based personal lubes tested, and renowned toy manufacturers have confirmed that our silicone lubes are suitable in long-term tests. We are not aware of any cases to the contrary. We use particularly high-quality silicones which are also used in the cosmetic industry. Nevertheless, we always recommend you test out our lubes on a small area of your toy beforehand 😊

Using personal lubes during pregnancy and prior to pregnancy

Before, during and after a pregnancy it is even more important for many women to know which products they can use safely. We cannot speak about all lubes, but when it comes to the pjur lubes, you do not have to be worried about them having any type of negative impact. Our lubes only contain specially selected, high-quality ingredients that meet high quality standards. And our lubes stand out due to their excellent tolerability, and they do not have a positive or negative impact on a wanted pregnancy.

Is it a good idea to use some other alternative instead of lubes?

Shower gel, saliva, baby oil or water – if you are thinking about using these alternatives to lubes, you would be better off if you didn’t. They can injure your genital area. For example, they can cause a yeast infection, promote vaginal dryness, or disrupt the natural pH value. Therefore, keep your hands off these alternatives! We have a large selection of lubes – and surely the right one for you.

Personal lubes are part of a satisfied love life

For us, personal lubes are a part of a satisfied love life and they can contribute to improving your wellbeing. After all, you should have a clear head to explore your sex life, improve your sex life and therefore relax your mind and body.

Enjoy a satisfied love life! Always.
