Lubricants Slip sliding away. Like all precision tools, your ‘privates’ might just need a little extra lubrication from time to time. Lubricants can aid sex if you or your partner is dry in and around the vagina. However, lubricants need not just be used this way; they can also be used for fun – improving all kinds of lovemaking experiences.

One of the best examples of where lubricants can make a real difference is during masturbation. A small blob of lubricant can transform an ordinary ‘hand-job’ into a slick, highly sensual experience for both the giver and the receiver.

Lubricants can also be used to ease any discomfort during sex for the first time or sex after a long time and can be used to allow a couple to have sex in the shower or a bath, as the lubricant combats the dryness caused by the water.
