đź’§ Lubricants 101: Which One Should You Use?
Let’s be honest — lube doesn’t get enough credit.
Whether you're flying solo, exploring with a partner, or spicing things up with a toy, a good lubricant makes everything smoother (literally and figuratively). But choosing one? That can feel like stepping into a maze.
So, we’re breaking it down — no fluff, just real talk. Here's what you need to know.
đź’§ Water-Based vs. Silicone-Based Lube
If you’ve ever stood in front of a shelf wondering “What’s the difference?” — this is for you.
🫧 Water-Based Lube
-
Safe to use with any toy (yes, even silicone!)
-
Easy to clean (just rinse with water)
-
Feels natural and light
-
Might need a reapply during longer sessions
đź’ś Our Pick:
ZOET Water-Based Lube →
Gentle, no-nonsense, and perfect for everyday use. At just R50, it’s a win for first-timers and couples alike.
đź–¤ Silicone-Based Lube
-
Silky-smooth and long-lasting
-
Great for shower play (it doesn’t wash away easily)
-
Perfect for longer sessions or anal play
-
Avoid with silicone toys — it can damage the material
đź–¤ Try This:

This is your "we're not playing around" lube — smooth, luxurious, and built to last.

🙋♀️ So, Which One Do You Actually Need?
Here’s a cheat sheet:
-
Using toys? Water-based is your friend.
-
Want it to last longer? Go silicone (but not with silicone toys!).
-
Sensitive skin? Try something natural, like XO Jam.
-
On a budget or starting out? ZOET is more than enough to get started.
And hey — don’t overthink it. Lube is personal. Try one, see how it feels, then switch it up if needed.
