Normalising Lube
Let’s get one thing straight: lube isn’t a backup plan, a “just in case,” or something to feel shy about. Lube is normal. It’s fun, it’s sexy, and it can completely change the game when it comes to intimacy. Whether you’re playing solo, with a partner, or getting creative with toys, a little extra slippery goodness takes intimacy to a whole new level. Adding lube does NOT mean failure for you or your lover. Recognising that bodies fluctuate and change is essential and lube is just here to allow YOU to feel more pleasure. As long as you are excited, turned on and keen to get spicy with your lover that's all that matters.
Lube does more than reduce friction. It boosts confidence. Saying, “Hold on, let me grab
some lube,” is a playful way to normalize talking about what you want. And when communication flows, pleasure follows. That’s empowering, for you, your partner, and your body.
The truth is, lube is for everyone. All genders. All kinds of play.
Maybe you don’t feel like you need it every time, but your partner might. Maybe you want to see what your toy collection feels like with added glide. Or maybe you’re just curious about how much more intense sensation gets when things are extra wet. Whatever the reason, lube isn’t a sign that something’s “wrong”, it’s a way to upgrade your sexual experience.
Sure, reaching for the bottle can feel a little awkward at times. But remember: sex is
supposed to be authentic and sometimes, with authenticity, comes learning. Sex is supposed to be juicy, fun, and dripping with pleasure. Once you get comfortable sliding lube into the mix, you’ll notice it’s not just about comfort, it’s about increased sensation, deeper connection, and, honestly, hotter sex.
Tips For Introducing Lube With A Lover
Not sure how to bring it up? Try these simple and playful lines:
● Being direct: “Hey, do you have any lube?”
● Introducing it: “Hold on, let me grab some lube for us”
● Be playful: “You know what would make this more delicious? Lube.”
That little pause while you reach for it? Sexy. The build-up? Hot. Asking “Is this okay?” while you drizzle some onto your partner’s skin and watch their reaction? Smoking. When you use lube as a playful tool instead of a hidden fix, it becomes part of the erotic tension.
So we are here to normalize it! Lube belongs in every bedroom, every bedside drawer, and every kind of intimacy. Because when you’re well-lubed, there’s less friction, more pleasure, and way more fun.
More pleasure, more play. Slide into our delicious lube collection to explore more.
