Honestly, I’ve tried water based, hybrid, and silicone based. The best I’ve tried is x lube. It’s from Germany I believe which makes shipping kind of expensive. It comes as a powder so you have to mix it with water which takes a little time. But the result is the best lube I’ve used. I some times get hemorrhoids with anal play, but with plenty of x lube, it hasn’t been an issue.
It seems like a big cost upfront, but I’ve been using the same bottle for years. I just mix I quarter teaspoon as needed, so my current bottle of powder will last me for years. The 30 or so dollars it costs is well worth it… And if you ever wanted to get crazy you could through a table spoon into a point water bottle. On 30 minutes, you’ve got enough for anything you’ve ever wanted. ;)
That’s great info, thanks!
I typically mix up something like 100ml at a time. I fill a little bottle I have for airport travel and use basically a coke spoon to put a tiny amount of x-lube in. Shake it every 15 for like an hour and it’s good to go. I’ll mix some up whenever I need to. It seems to lose its lubricating properties after a week or two.
