Water-based lubes are made with glycerin, and are safe for all toys and condoms. They're easy to clean up, and are available in a huge variety of textures and types. If you don't know where to start with a lube, this is the place!

See our Buying Guide on Lube Interactions if you're not sure which lube is right for you and your toys.


Astroglide
The lube of the astronauts! Legend has it that Astroglide was originally developed by NASA to help astronauts slip into their spacesuits, but was quickly discovered to have more interesting applications. A good lube for folks who prefer their lube with a thinner texture, Astroglide is long-lasting, non-sticky, colorless and clear, with a thin, liquidy texture and a mild, not-unpleasant bitter-sweet taste. It's a very popular lube -- we had a number of requests for it before we finally decided to carry it. If you like the thinner texture of silicone-based lubes but want something you can use with silicone sex toys, Astroglide is a fine choice. A water-based glycerine lube.

Ingredients: Purified water, glycerin, propylene glycol, polyquarternium, methylparaben, propylparaben.

Eros Aqua Formula
Eros fans, get excited! We are thrilled to offer you this super slick, ultra slippery lube in a water-based formula direct from Germany. Eros Aqua Formula feels more like real sex juices than any other lube we have encountered and stays truly slippery without drying up or getting sticky; it just slowly absorbs over time. Unlike other water-based lubes, this high-end wonder is absolutely flavorless which, in our Blowfishie opinion, makes this lube perfect for combining oral activities with lube play. Please take note: Eros Aqua Formula is quite runny (almost like a liquid) and highly concentrated, requiring only a few drops to make any surface or orifice slick. While the consistency does make for a bargain in terms of price-per-use ratio, it has the downside of occasionally leaking from the bottle if you knock it over mid-activity. If you are looking for something a little different than the others, this lube is a must-try.

Ingredients: water, glycerin, ethoxydiglycol, guar hydroxypropyltrimonium chloride, hydroxyethylcellulose, citric acid, benzyl alcohol.

Intimate Infusions Lubricant, 4 oz
Looking for a truly natural and organic lubricant that is water-based and lovely to use? Intimate Infusions Lubricants are 100% vegan water-based lubes made from a natural formula and are infused with real herbs and flowers, organic spices and teas, and a touch aloe vera for a smooth glide. This lube is quite slippery and re-slicks with a touch of moisture (a kiss or a lick are ideal choices). These lubes have no parabens, no petro-chemicals, and are safe to use with condoms, toys, and throughout pregnancy. Not only are they wonderfully healthy, they are delicious as well!

Available Almost Naked (near flavorless). Please note: Due to the natural ingredients in these flavored lubes, they are lightly tinted brown. While some may find the color off-putting, some of our testers loved the non-bleached look of it. Washable from linens as well!

Ingredients: Deionized water, agar, aloe juice, xanthum gum, vegetable glycerin, glucose, lactoperoxidase, oxidase glucose, benzoic acid.

Liquid Silk Water-Based Lube
Liquid Silk is the best lube we have ever encountered. More like a lotion than a traditional sex lube, Liquid Silk contains no glycerin, no scents, and no nonoxynol-9. Many people are sensitive to nonoxynol-9, and we've had a certain amount of personal experience that glycerin-based lubes can promote yeast infections. Liquid Silk also has one truly delightful property: as it dries out, it doesn't get sticky! It just gets less and less slippery. Also great for masturbation... and it contains skin conditioners and vitamin E. Water-based, latex-safe.

We've had customers say that it saved their sex life. We can't promise you the same (we don't even know that your sex life needs saving), but give it a try!

Note: While this lube contains a very small amount of dimethicone, a silicone polymer, there is not nearly enough to cause reactions with silicone toys.

Ingredients: Water, propylene glycol, dimethicone, cellulose polymer, Ppolysorbate 60, sorbitan stearate, cetearyl alcohol, glyceryl stearate NSE, BNPD, disodium EDTA, phenoxyethanol, methyl paraben, butyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben, BHT.

Lube Shooter, three pack
You guys have been asking about these things for years, but we could never find one that wasn't filled with some random off-brand lube that we would never carry. So we're pleased to finally carry a lube shooter that is affordable and easy to fill with your own favorite lube! Our Lube Shooter, three-pack contains three disposable shooters, (and one reusable plunger and cap), which can be filled with pretty much any lube that you have lying around. Remove the plunger, pour in the lube, remove the cap on the other end and depress until a little lube dribbles from the business end, making sure to force out all the air. Once loaded, you can insert the Lube Shooter into the orifice that needs lubing (about one inch in) and slowly depress the plunger. This is particularly useful for anal play, as it delivers a nice big dollop of lube directly inside where you need it the most. But no matter which orifice you're lubing up, this is a much neater, cleaner way to put your lube just where you want it.

Maximus Water-Based Gel Lube
From BodyWise, the makers of Liquid Silk. One of the few complaints we get about Liquid Silk is that it is a bit thin for anal sex and vaginal fisting. For fisting and anal play, the thicker the lube, the better (well, motor oil is probably taking it a bit far...). Maximus is the answer! It's much thicker than Liquid Silk, with a somewhat gelatinous texture, and is perfect for those heavy applications (works great for masturbation, too). It stays slippery for a very long time -- much longer than most other lubes. The smell and taste are very light and non-intrusive, and it's good for people with sensitive tissues -- while not being actually hypo-allergenic, it's less likely to cause a reaction than many other lubes. And, like Liquid Silk, it's water-based and completely latex-safe. We love it here at the Blowfish Testing Labs, and we think you will, too.

Ingredients: Water, propylene glycol, cellulose polymer, disodium EDTA, phenoxyethanol, methyl paraben, butyl paraben, ethyl paraben, propyl paraben.

O'My Natural Lubricant
O'My
We're, ah, pumped to offer this wonderful lube. O'My is a great-tasting natural glycerin-based lube, entirely condom safe. It includes hemp seed oil, which (it is claimed) naturally retards vaginal yeast, bacterial, and fungal infections. It tastes great, much better than old-style chemical lubes. They come in a nicely designed pump-top container, very handy for bedside uses. We've had customers after us for a while to carry this; it clearly has a loyal (indeed, rabid) following, so we're pleased to be able to turn it loose on you.

Ingredients: Water, vegetable glycerin, hemp seed oil, guarana extract, Siberian ginseng extract, hydroxyethyl-cellulose, sodium benzoate, tetrasodium EDTA, grapefruit seed extract, damiana extract.

Probe
Probe has a large and loyal following for use as a lube for anal sex and vaginal fisting. There's also a Silky Light variety, much lighter than the heavy Classic formula.

We prefer the Classic for anal sex to many other latex-safe lubes. If you like a glycerine-and-water-based lube, Probe is an excellent choice, and it is, of course, latex-safe.

Ingredients: Purified water, vegetable glycerine, polyethelene oxide, grapefruit seed extract.

Available in the following:

  • classic (-CLA)
  • silky light (-SLK)

Slippery Stuff, Gel
The cult of Slippery Stuff continues to expand with the addition of the Gel variation. Just like its red-bottled sibling it's tasteless, odorless, non-staining, and not the least bit sticky or greasy. It's glycerin-free, if you are sensitive to glycerin for any reason, and 100% latex safe. The Gel has the same wonderful characteristics of Slippery Stuff Liquid, but in a convenient (and not runny) gel.

Ingredients: Deionized water, propylene glycol, isopropanol, sodium carboxylpolymethylene, methylparaben.

Slippery Stuff, Liquid
Slippery Stuff was one of the first sex lubes ever, and it has a rabid following. (Really. You would think it was a cult, or something.) It's very fluid, and is as neutral as you can hope for: tasteless, odorless, non-staining, not the least bit sticky or greasy. It's glycerin-free, if you are sensitive to glycerin for any reason, and 100% latex safe.

And now, it's available in a 16 oz. pump-top size! (Not shown.)

Ingredients: Deionized water, propylene glycol, isopropanol, polyethylene oxide, methylparaben.

ToyFluid
This lube was formulated specifically for use with toys. It's a glycerin-based lube, but it is much less sticky than other glycerin lubes that we've used; it stays nearly as slick as Liquid Silk, and that's saying something. Since it is glycern-based, it's entirely safe to use with silicone toys, and is completely latex-safe. It is almost completely odorless and tasteless; nothing to get in the way. It's also nice and goopy, which makes for much better ease-of-use than a very runny lube; you want your lube to stay where you put it!

If you are looking for a glycerin lube, give this one a go; we were very happy with it.

Ingredients: Water, glycerin, ethoxydiglycol, guar hydroxypropltrimonium chloride, hydroxyproplcellulose, citric acid, benzyl alcohol, methylisothiazolinone, methylchloroisothialinone.

Trimensa Lube DeLuxe, Cream
Trimensa, best known for the venerable ForPlay line of lubes, has introduced a new premium lube family, Lube DeLuxe. We particularly like this one, the Cream variation; it's not a fluid, but a lovely creamy paste, and that means it stays put before you put it where you want it to go. (Don't you hate those "dump lube all over the sheets by accident" incidents? We sure do.) Very slippery, long-lasting, and 100% latex safe.

While the ingredient list on the packaging reads as follows:

Ingredients: Deionized water, glycerin, glycol fusion, cellulose gum, chlorhexidine gluconate, potassium sorbate.

It has come to our attention that this lube contains some amount of methylparabens and propylparabens.

Trimensa Lube DeLuxe, Gel
Another cool lube in the Lube DeLuxe family from Trimensa, best known for the venerable ForPlay. The Gel variety is somewhere between the Cream variety and a traditional liquid lube; it runs, but not very far or fast.

It contains no glycerin, so if you've had bad reactions to glycerin in the past, you now have another choice in a water-based lube. Or, if you want something that pours and runs, but a typical lube isn't thick enough for you, here you are. It's a great choice for anal sex.

It's water based, so it's 100% latex safe.

While the ingredient list on the packaging reads as follows:

Ingredients: Deionized water, glycol fusion, cellulose gum, chlorhexidine gluconate, potassium sorbate.

It has come to our attention that this lube contains some amount of methylparabens and propylparabens.

Trimensa Lube DeLuxe, GelPlus
And Trimensa's lube explosion continues with another Lube DeLuxe family member. GelPlus has the same consistency as the Gel variety, but includes Aloe Vera for the skin. It contains no glycerin, so if you've had bad reactions to glycerin in the past, you now have another choice in a water-based lube. Or, if you want something that pours and runs, but a typical lube isn't thick enough for you, here you are. It's a great choice for anal sex.

It's water based, so it's 100% latex safe.

While the ingredient list on the packaging reads as follows:

Ingredients: Deionized water, glycol fusion, aloe vera, cellulose gum, potassium sorbate.

It has come to our attention that this lube contains some amount of methylparabens and propylparabens.
