Three main lubricant categories exist: water-based, silicone-based, and oil-based. These different lubricant categories are established to help readers understand the different feeling created by each, how each reacts with sex toy materials and condoms, and the benefits of using one type of lubricant to another type. Basically, an important distinction between the different types of lubricants must be made, which helps individuals make better purchasing decisions - decisions that are based on performance and health concerns.

Water-based lubricants - the most prevalent of all three lubricant types - are extremely popular with men and women, and have been in existence much longer than other types of lubricants. Most everyone has experimented with water-based lubricants at one time or another. Many beginners start their lubricant experiences with water-based lubes, and it's no surprise why: Most grocery stores and pharmacies carry a wide selection of water-based personal lubricants. Water-based lubricants are 100% latex compatible - you can use your favourite condoms without worrying about meddlesome material-lubricant interactions.

Water-based lubricants are created with a variety of properties that serve different performance objectives; some water-based lubricants are flavored, unflavored, thick, or thin - or have a combination of different properties, allowing individuals to use the lubes for a variety of sexual activities. Since water-based lubricants are mainly made of water, it is the healthiest and most natural choice for vaginal lubrication. There are many high quality water-based lubes available for purchase - check out Redhotknickers.co.uk for the most popular water - based lubricants .

There are disadvantages of using water-based lubes. First, lubrication slickness eventually becomes sticky; this stickiness frustrates many people, but Redhotknickers.co.uk has a secret tip that will make your water-based lubricant more effective for longer periods of time: Instead of reapplying more lube, unwanted stickiness is remedied by adding small amounts of water or saliva to the applied area (wherever penetration occurs), and in this way, your water-based lubricant is reactivated, ready for continuous action! Second, water-based lubricants are not waterproof (cannot take your action into a watery environment) and may contain glycerin (an ingredient that some women are sensitive to).

Silicone-based lubricants increased in popularity over the last few years. This lubricant type often offers individuals a slicker, longer-lasting, and smoother glide during sex. Human skin tissue does not absorb silicone lubricants, which means silicone lubricants never become sticky - not like water-based lubricants do. Plus, silicone-based lubricants are waterproof - you can take your sex into the shower without losing that impressive glide that makes you feel so wonderful. Silicone lubricants have a thicker consistency than water-based formulas, but they are condom compatible.

Like water-based lubricants, there are a couple of drawbacks from using silicone-based lubricants. First, clean up can be difficult since residue can be left on the bed, tub, or wherever you used the lubricant. Soap and water cleans removes the lubricant from skin; however, it is impossible to completely remove the lubricant from the vagina - not by any cleaning means. Nature takes care of this, but immediate removal by hand is impossible. Second, silicone-based lubricants are not compatible with silicone sex toys.

Oil-based lubricants should only be used for male masturbation. Just as dermatologists recommend that people do not use oil-based cosmetics that can clog facial pores, women should not use oil-based lubricants that could potentially clog vaginal pores. Using oil lubricants for penetrative sex acts can lead to vaginal infections and anal irritations. The myth of Crisco as a reliable lubricant - yes, it would be in your best interest to stay clear of Crisco! If you insist on using an oil-based lubricant for penetration, you should be aware that all oil-based lubes are incompatible with latex condoms - this lube type destroys latex!

Note: Most massage oils cannot be used as lubricants; they often contain oils that do not interact positively with vaginal tissues, and these oils are not compatible latex condoms, as well. Some silicone-based and water-based massage liquids can also be used for your lubrication needs; however, silicone-based lubricants tend to be the main exception to this rule, because human skin does not absorb silicone and does not contain lotion. Silicone-based lubricants are multi-purpose in this way: They excel as lubricants for sex and massage.

Please find below just some of the great comments we've received from various magazine reviews.

" ID Millennium is the absolute 'King of all Lubricants'.and more than that, because its moisturising, it leaves your skin feeling like you've had a top-of-range massage with expensive oils."

" ID Millennium is a silicone based lube that feels foxy. a beautifully smooth lube that doubles up as a moisturiser and as a sensual massage lotion. even better it stays on under water, [so] if your fantasy involves a hot tub.!"

"BORN SLIPPY - When we have sex, lube's as vital a part of the experience as a willing bloke with a hard-on, and we've always found ID one of the best brands. As well as it's ever-popular Sensual Glide variety, there are also some newer additions to the ID family that will add new dimensions to your sex life, with a partner or without!

ID Millennium is an ultra long lasting lube making penetration for anal action even easier.....

Adding a fruity take to the proceedings is ID Juicy Lube. Coming in almost as many flavours as Baskin-Robbins (like Big Banana and Vanilla Cream), Juicy Lube has all the properties of Sensual Glide with a tasty twist. It makes rimming a truly mouth watering experience.

Last but not least there's ID Cream - made for when you're enjoying your own company. Its an oil based cream (and so it's not to be used with condoms) made purely to enhance the pleasure of wanking. Especially useful for guys with cocks of the cut variety, you can literally have satisfaction in the palm of your hand."

" ID Lube creates a more sensual experience"

"This is one great lube"

Too many people don't feel sexy enough for a session in the sack, even though more sex improves our general well-being.

That's according to Dr CW Randolph, author of From Hormone Hell to Hormone Well, who has said that good sex "improves our health and may even contribute to our longevity".

Dr Paul Pearsall, author of Sexual Healing, supports this view, writing: "When we experience intimate, mutually caring sexual intimacy, we may experience a measurable change in neuron-chemicals and hormones that pour through the body and help promote health and healing."

However, Dr Randolph warns that many of those experiencing low sex drives may be suffering from hypo-active sexual desire disorder, "more commonly referred to in lay language as 'low libido'".
