Liquid Silk Personal Lubricant, 250ml

Product Information

Hybrid lubes typically have a combination of water and silicone, so they have a mix of the pros and cons of each option. The water makes them easy to clean up and the silicone keeps them from drying out so they last longer. Yes, as Sylk is a natural substance it is perfectly safe to use when you're pregnant. With no nasty chemicals, hormones or parabens you don't have to worry about your baby absorbing anything that could potentially be harmful. Sylk is a water based natural vaginal lubricant suitable for treatment of vaginal dryness, and available on NHS prescription. Other things you could try include working out what makes you feel better about yourself and how you can have a better relationship with your partner. Exercise, reduction in caffeine and alcohol can help you feel better and will increase libido.

Sylk has a ph balance of 4.5 - 4.7, similar to the normal vaginal environment i.e. slightly acidic. This is deliberate to keep the vagina healthy. Sylk natural lubricant feels just like your own lubrication and as it feels so good, actually helps stimulate your body to produce more. Your partner may not even know you're using it, unless you tell him. Because of the exciting feel, Sylk can actually enhance a man's erection and experience. Uberlube’s Luxury Lubricant is silicone-based, meaning you only need a little bit to get you through a session, and it can be used for water play as well. It has these long-lasting lubricating benefits while being free from potentially harmful or irritating ingredients like parabens, glycerin, scents, and flavors. In fact, it has only four ingredients in total. The addition of vitamin E helps provide moisturization and softness.The ingredients are naturally hydrating so your skin will feel silky smooth when you’re done. It has a mild vanilla scent thanks to the vanilla flavor added, but nothing too strong. It’s even safe to swallow! Oil-based lubes are usually made using natural oils such as vitamin E or coconut oil. They’re long-lasting and waterproof like silicone. They help with more severe dryness, says Dr. Eilber, but they are not compatible with latex condoms, and they could stain bedding and clothing. Many women notice a drop in libido and vaginal dryness with the menopause. It is the drop in oestrogen that causes it. Sylk is a natural lubricant that is highly effective at treating vaginal dryness. It can be used both as a moisturiser every day as well as a lubricant for lovemaking. Hopefully if you feel more comfortable and confident, this may help to put you in the mood & boost your libido.

Many women will present with symptoms that they do not recognise as vaginal dryness, confusing the issue with thrush or cystitis. Sylk is widely prescribed for menopausal women but can also be used safely by all women suffering with dryness and discomfort. Besides these natural ingredients, many lubes contain preservatives. Sodium benzoate and citric acid are two such preservatives that are considered to be safe. Hydroxyethylcellulose is another ingredient you might see in lube; it is helpful for those trying to conceive because lubes with this ingredient closely mimic natural vaginal fluids and have been found to be helpful because they don't decrease sperm motility. We love that it comes in a bunch of flavors–from cherry vanilla to pina colada to cater to a variety of taste preferences. It’s sugar-free, but it does contain aspartame. There’s some mixed messaging around the safety of aspartame for internal use, so you may be best off using this exclusively for oral or non-penetrative sex. Flavored lube: To make oral sex taste better, you might enjoy something with flavor. These typically water-based lubricants are A-OK for penetrative sex, but the additives may make you more susceptible to vaginal infections. What to look for in a good lubeSylk provides dual action moisturisation and lubrication so can be used for both everyday comfort and lovemaking. Sylk works by sensitively moisturising and lubricating sensitive tissues. Because of its' unique formulation, Sylk feels as close to 'natural lubrication' as is possible.
