Lubricants: Smoothening sex for you

Hundreds of different lubricants are available on the market. What you might find the best might not be the same for someone else. Choosing lubricants is a matter of personal choice. As everyone seems to have different opinions about the same type of lubricant, it is safe to say that none are better or worse. Here's a brief idea about the three leading types of lubricants that will help you decide which will suit your needs the best.

Water-based lubes

Water-based lube is touted to be the best lubricant because many people find it to be non-irritating and it does not cause latex to deteriorate. However, this is not true because some women who are prone to yeast infections, find that water-based lubes containing glycerine or sugar can aggravate their infections. The major drawback of water-based lubes is that they dry more quickly than other forms of lubricants; however, this can be easily remedied by adding a bit more lube, water, or saliva as this can reactivate its slippery properties.

Silicone lubes

The latest developments in lubricants are silicone lubes. These lubricants are safe, compatible with condoms and latex toys and are longer lasting than water-based lubes. The major drawback of silicone lubes is that they can't be washed off easily and if they are not washed off properly or if they are left for too long, they cause irritation. Also they can't be used with silicone toys, so all the silicone toy users might find this disappointing.

Flavoured lubes

Flavoured lubes are just water-based. Their main feature is that they are flavoured and so stimulate your other senses. These lubricants are smooth and slick, but not sticky and messy like silicone and oil-based lubes. As they are water-soluble and your skin absorbs them easily, they are easy to wash off as all you need is warm water and soap to get rid of the smell and stickiness. The most popular flavours are watermelon, wild cherry, strawberry and orange.

People who think that lubes are not meant for them should start off with flavoured lubes as they will quickly change their minds and will soon swear by lubricant after using this sex aid!

LAYAspot from Fun Factory – Product review

LAYAspot is a small vibrator that is fun, discreet, sporty and ergonomic. It is not meant for vaginal penetration and yet claims to give you big orgasms. You may ask how? And the answer is that the LAYAspot requires no fuss, no thinking, no difficult controls and buttons to manoeuvre and the only thing you need to focus on is your body and its response to the LAYAspot.

What you'll love?

A lovely sense of subtle stimulation between your lips and the close, uninterrupted ebb and flow of vibrations over your clitoris are what you will love and look forward to when using the LAYAspot. This small toy will easily fit in your palm and will never cease to amaze you with its teasing, tantalising and stimulating capabilities.

What you'll not love?

No matter how good a vibrator is, it is no good if it can't be penetrated. Some women just can't get off without vaginal penetration. LAYAspot can be a good clitoral massager but as it can't penetrate, it may not be favoured by some women. Also, women may find that LAYAspot is more of a tease, something that will get them interested and aroused, and something that will be good for foreplay but not enough to push them over the edge and give them deep satisfying orgasms.

Features that you'll be interested in

• Easy to use – Buttons are not at the base like conventional vibrators, which makes it easy to use and control

• Innovative technology – The LAYAspot attacks your clitoris with such a spine-tingling accuracy that you will have multiple orgasms without as much as even touching your vaginal opening

• Powerful, quiet and durable motor – All Fun Factory vibrators are high-end and these attributes are never amiss in any high-end products

• Three vibration modes – From extremely low clit-buzz to a mind-numbing top setting, you will go to heaven and back in seconds

• Water-proof – This feature adds to the versatility of the LAYAspot

• Made up of ELASTOMED – Patented by Fun Factory, this material is long-lasting, hypo-allergenic and easy to clean

10 Creative Ways of Using Vibrators

So you have taken the leap ahead and have used a vibrator. You are not shy and timid and you don’t feel that using a vibrator is a crime or immoral. Kudos to you! But, have you now felt that most vibrator users undergo i.e. 'what next?'

Well, after using vibrators of all types, from dildos to rabbit vibrators and from clitoral vibrators to sex machines, many people feel that the sex toy industry has nothing more to offer them. Sex toy manufacturers that expand faster than you can blink don’t actually create new products, and instead tend to just adapt a thing or two to old sex toys and re-introduce them as new. So even using a vibrator is thought to become boring after some time. Unless, you step up and try something else.

How can you help?

You can save your sex life from becoming boring and make your box full of sex toys appear more interesting with a few simple steps. Keep these steps in mind and you will live sexually happy ever after...

1. Buy at least one sex toy of each type that is designed to stimulate both yours and your partner's erogenous zones, for instance clitoris, vagina, scrotum and penis

2. Don’t forget to include sex toys that are meant for double and triple stimulation, e.g. rabbit vibrators and cock rings with clit stimulators

3. Always learn to start slow and use the least powerful toy first. Small bullet vibrators are good for starters

4. Teasing and building anticipation by way of foreplay is more essential than you think. Use vibrators such as the LAYAspot (clitoris massager) on each other's body

5. Don’t jump to the final act, no matter how pressed you are for time, or how tired you are. Quickies are good sometimes but don’t make them a habit. Using a vibrator when relaxed will give you double the fun

6. Anal sex is not bad and anal vibrators if used correctly can give you pleasure minus the pain

7. Using a vibrator while standing, in doggy-style, in a bath or shower, on a chair, in fact any place you feel would be different from your usual routine will give you a much needed boost

8. Use vibrators when alone. See what you like and ask your partner to do the same for you instead of relying completely in your partner. If you want to see your reactions on using a vibrator and your changing facial expressions, sit in front of a mirror

9. Woman should put a clit vibe on her clitoris when her partner is inside her and man should perhaps use an anal vibrator, this would be the most satisfying experience for both partners

10. Vibrators merely vibrate. If you are not tuned in to your sexuality, they can do nothing. Always be in touch with your sexuality to get the most out of your vibrators. Fantasising is one thing that you can do to make the most of your vibrators.
