Best for Latex Condoms: If you plan to use latex condoms, it’s super important you make sure your lube is compatible—otherwise, it could cause the condom to break down and become less effective, Alyssa Dweck, MD, assistant clinical professor of obstetrics at Mount Sinai School of Medicine and co-author of V is For Vagina, previously told SELF. K-Y’s True Feel Lube is silicone-based and has an extra slippery feel that’s great for both vaginal penetration and anal sex. Just so you know: While it’s safe to use with latex, it will degrade silicone sex toys, so you should try a water- or oil-based option there instead.
“Other lubes tend to get sticky fast and ruin the moment,” wrote one Amazon shopper. “Not True Feel! You don’t have to use a lot of it, either.” The 4.5 oz. size is discreet, while the 8.45 oz. size saves you the hassle of having to constantly reorder.
- Pros: Flavor-, fragrance-, and glycerin-free; long-lasting
