Lubricants

The right lubricant can completely change a session. From everyday bating to large dildos, thick cocks and fisting, our range includes water-based, silicone, hybrid and specialist formulas designed to provide the glide, cushioning and control you need.

Lube is essential for reducing friction and making penetration more comfortable, but different activities simply need different textures. Our selection ranges from versatile everyday lubes by Swiss Navy and S8 to thicker formulas from Mister B and Boy Butter, plus specialist fisting products from Fuck & Fist and Fist Assist. You will also find powders, gels, creams, travel packs, and customer favorites such as J-Lube and Crisco.

Which type of lube should I choose?

Water-based lube is the most versatile option. It is easy to clean, broadly compatible with condoms and suitable for most toy materials. It is the best default for edging, anal sex, Dildos, and Masturbators.

Silicone-based lube offers a longer-lasting, very slick glide. It is well suited to extended anal play, larger toys and fisting because it normally needs less frequent reapplication. However, it may not be compatible with some silicone toys, so check both product labels before use.

Hybrid lube combines a water base with silicone ingredients. It provides more staying power than many standard water-based products while remaining lighter than a pure silicone formula. It is a useful middle ground for anal play, large dildos and longer sessions.

Thick gels, creams and butters stay where they are applied and can provide extra cushioning. These textures are especially popular for hard fisting and XXL toys. Some are water-based, while others contain oils or petrolatum, so always check compatibility with condoms, gloves and toys.

Powdered lubes, including J-Lube and specialist fisting powders, are mixed with water and are useful when you need a larger quantity. Follow the instructions for the exact mixing ratio, preparation and storage time, as these vary between products.

For dedicated bators, Bator Balm is one of the standout bating lubes on the market: created by Alex de la Cruz from within the bator community, its rich, long-lasting cream is made for extended edging, mixes smoothly with pre-cum and wipes away easily afterward.

Best lube for fisting and large toys

For fisting, choose a thick, long-lasting formula that coats the hand and anal opening evenly. Use plenty from the beginning, reapply before the glide fades, and allow the body time to adjust. Lube does not replace gradual warm-up, communication, or stopping when something feels wrong. Sharp, increasing, or persistent pain is a reason to stop, add more lube, or return to a smaller size.

Design your setup

Use a water-based formula with Masturbators unless the toy instructions state otherwise. For Dildos, choose a lubricant that is compatible with the toy material, especially when using silicone toys.

Products from our Anal Relax and Delay categories can be useful additions, but they do not replace lubricant. Apply them according to their instructions, allow them to absorb or take effect, and then add a compatible lube. Anal relaxers may reduce sensitivity during warm-up, while delay products are designed to reduce penile sensitivity; neither provides the lasting glide needed for penetration.

A lot of our customers also use Poppers during anal play for additional relaxation. But remember, poppers and lubricant have different roles: poppers do not reduce friction or make the body instantly ready for a large toy or fist. Use plenty of lube and take your time.

Choose the formula that matches your session, and when in doubt, use a water-based lube as it is the most broadly compatible.

FAQ Lubricants

The best lubricant for anal sex depends on the type and duration of play. A thick water-based lube is a versatile starting point because it is easy to clean and broadly compatible with condoms and sex toys. Silicone lube normally lasts longer and is useful for extended anal sessions, but it may not be suitable for some silicone toys. For larger toys, choose a thicker gel or hybrid formula and reapply whenever needed.

Water-based lube is versatile, easy to wash away, and suitable for most condoms and toy materials, although it may require more frequent reapplication. Silicone-based lube provides a slicker, longer-lasting glide and is particularly useful for anal sex and extended sessions. However, it can affect some silicone toys, so always check the instructions for both products before combining them.

For fisting, choose a thick, long-lasting lubricant that stays where it is applied and provides plenty of glide. Specialist water-based gels offer broad compatibility, while silicone and hybrid formulas normally last longer. Powdered lubes are practical when you need a larger quantity. Use plenty from the beginning, reapply as needed, and allow the body time to adjust gradually.
