Personal Lubricants – The Importance of Slopping it On!

June 18th, 2011 Comments off

Personal LubricantsPersonal lubricants, or “lube”, are a means of reducing friction between two body parts or between objects and a body part. Lube is usually used for sex, but it is also used in a medical context, such as for catheter insertion or to relieve discomfort that results from vaginal dryness due to age or illness.

This is one reason it is important to use personal lubricants during sex. An older woman might find that the body is unable to keep up with a willing mind where intimate matters are concerned. This is because the production of oestrogen decreases with age, translating into less natural lubrication even though the woman may be highly aroused. As such, a personal lubricant can greatly smooth proceedings.

Couples will also find personal lubricants extremely helpful if they intend to aim for a world record duration for having sex. Again, the mind might be willing, but the body less so. This is especially true if you’ve spent at least four hours going at it. Additionally, condoms actually have a drying effect on the mucosal surfaces of the vagina or anus, which can lead to discomfort the longer a session is prolonged. Thus, lubricant would come in handy in such circumstances.

Aside from prolonging pleasure, it is important to use a personal lubricant when attempting sex, whether anal or vaginal, for the first time, or when using a high-powered vibrator, particularly if you intend to use it for an extended duration. Lubrication is important in anal sex because the rectum does not produce any form of lubrication, and prolonged friction from the sex can result in injury.

In first-time vaginal sex, lubricant can help ease proceedings and enhance enjoyment. Likewise, a marathon self-loving session may be cut short if personal lubricant isn’t used due to prolonged friction resulting in dryness and extreme discomfort.

Some personal lubricants are also available in “his ‘n’ hers” formulations as well. Aside from enhancing and extending pleasure, these lubricants can add to the sensations felt by the man and heighten the sensitivity of the woman’s clitoris, leading to more intense gratification for both. Lube can also enhance the closeness between partners in another way as it can double up as massage oil. Most lubricants are hypoallergenic and water-soluble, which means there is a lower chance of developing skin irritation or an allergic reaction, in contrast to scented massage oils.

Personal lubricants are greatly enhance the sensations and pleasures felt during sex, and it is best to pair a water-based lube with condom use to ensure nothing untoward takes place.

Swiss Navy 2 in 1 His and Hers Gels

November 29th, 2010 Comments off

swiss-navy-his-hers-gelsPresenting a revolutionary concept where personal lubricants are concerned, Swiss Navy’s 2 in 1 gel pack contains two different formulations that promise to enhance the pleasure for both him and her. With 25 ml of gel in each compartment, there is enough lubrication for more than one night of fun.

For him, there is a male enhancement gel that comprises a blend of rare herbal extracts aimed at prolonging stamina and performance while maximising his pleasure at the same time. For her, a careful selection of herbs combines to produce a stimulating effect, promoting sexual arousal and heightening her sense of pleasure with a hot-cold tingling feeling

The tingling sensations created by the “Hers” gel takes some getting used to at first, but the heightened pleasure it creates is greatly appreciated. Likewise, the “His” personal lubricant gel increases sensations in a palpable manner. When used in combination with one another, the extra-stimulating effect created by the gels can only be described as “mind blowing”.

One remarkable feature of this gel is how it glides on like silk and remains that way for an extended period of time. There can be no end to praise for its long-lasting smoothness. The satiny feel persists for hours, yet the gel can be washed off easily with no problem whatsoever. Not only that, the gel never becomes sticky and clammy no matter where you apply it.

Another aspect in which these gels score points is that they are non-staining. Whatever the amount used or how long it has remained in contact with any fabric, these personal lubricant gels leave no trace on sheets at all, even after prolonged activity. Identical to their effect on the skin, the gels are easy to wash off fabric and produce no discolouration at all.

There is one effect that the gels create that is completely unexpected – it is quite a decent moisturiser as well! Just like the way it feels when first applied, His and Hers gel lubricants make the skin feel silky smooth without being slick and greasy. Naturally, they do not dry out the skin. Combined with a pump mechanism that only dispenses as much as needed, it’s evident that Swiss Navy has come up with another winner.

Swiss Navy Premium Lubricant

August 9th, 2010 Comments off

swiss_navyWhen it comes to supplies for your playtime, a good quality lubricant is an absolute staple. Though it’s something that can easily be overlooked or disregarded, it ensures a fluid and comfortable experience, whether you’re getting better acquainted with your partner, a toy, or flying completely solo.

Swiss Navy Lubricants are top of the lube market, offering products that provide a top quality user experience at a great price. Swiss Navy Lubes supply smooth and realistic lubrication, without any mess or sticky residue to get in the way of your fun.

If you want a flavoured lube, or one that will absorb into your skin or easily wipe off, Swiss Navy water-based lubricants are the way to go. Water based lubes are great for regular use as they can easily be flushed out of your body. If your preference lies with a lube that won’t dry up, or absorb into your skin, you may prefer to use a Swiss Navy silicone based lubricant. The silicone based lube is especially good if you want a little fun in the shower, as it won’t rinse off upon contact with water. . When it comes to silicone based lubes, less is more – a little will go a long way! Both types of lubricants are condom friendly and can also be used with sex toys – with the exception of  silicone toys with a silicone based lube, since this will erode the toy.

As if all that wasn’t enough, Swiss Navy Premium Lubricant comes in a fantastically handy ‘no mess’ pump dispenser bottle which can be locked off after you’re done with it, so there’ll be no dripping or leaks all over your sheets or bedside table! Swiss Navy lubes are packaged in unobtrusive bottles with a plain design, so you can keep them in full view on your bedroom cabinet without worrying that prying eyes or overnight guests will know exactly what it is and what you’ve been up to.

Naughty But Nice have provided adult products for the past 14 years, and are a one stop shop for all your needs. They offer Swiss Navy Premium Lubricant at a great price, and if you order online, your order will be shipped in discreet plain packaging – so you won’t be faced with awkward questions if you receive your delivery while at work, or in the company of an elderly relative!

Lubricants

April 21st, 2010 Comments off

LubricantLubricants have been around for quite a long time. Contrary to what many think, lube isn’t exclusive to couples that have a knick for the kinkier ways of sex. They are also used by women who don’t secrete enough fluids for comfortable intercourse. Often, the lubricant turns the experience into a lubrican, because in some cases lube is the only thing that ensures comfortable sex. Lubricants are often used in combination with sex toys such as dildos or marbles, as lube makes inserting them a whole lot easier. Besides that, lubricants are used for sexual hygiene – they make cleaning up mandatory.

It is no secret that lubricants reduce friction. And reduced friction means: a) additional protection from STIs as there are less micro-wounds that transmit diseases; b) different forms of sex, e.g. anal sex; c) enhanced feel and aroma that only lubes can give you. Lubes aren’t meant only for couples. Lube can as well be used when alone for getting new feelings. Lubricants enhance masturbation for males, and for females who use sex toys like dildos. They can also add an aesthetic element to the process because lubricants come in different perfumes.

To choose the right lubricant for you, you must first know something about them. At first there are water-based lubricants – classical lubes -, that are of the most popular lubricant sort, as they’re cheap and have almost no side effects. They do, however, evaporate pretty fast, and you need to apply them for quite a few times and also wipe them. Then there are the petroleum-based lubricants. Think Vaseline. Those are easy to use, but deteriorate rubber, so aren’t meant for use on dildos and when wearing condoms. And lastly, the rather new silicone-based lubricants that are increasing in popularity. Silicone-based lubricants are used by those that have allergic reactions to other sorts of lubricants. They can be used on non-silicone sex toys; be aware that silicone toys will deteriorate if silicone lube is used; they also leave stains that are hard to wash.

Variety is key when using lubricants. You want all the feel, all the smell and all the comfort you can get from lubricants, and testing different lubes will surely give you an idea of what you like or don’t like. We at Naughty But Nice have a solid lube collection – from the aforementioned water-based lubricants and silicone-based lubricants -, to enhanced lubes that employ the recent advances in chemistry for achieving superior pleasure.
