Water-based lubricant – is a common type of skin-friendly personal lubricant, formulated with water as main ingredient and added moisturizing factors such as glycerin, propylene glycol and hyaluronic acid. They are gentle, easy to clean and compatible with latex condoms, making them the preferred choice for sensitive skin and daily intimate scenarios.
Water-based lubricant is the most common and easily accessible type of personal lubricant on the market. The following is a comparison of oil-based lubricants and silicone-based lubricants.
Water-soluble : Easy to clean, can be washed off skin and fabrics with water without leaving residue.
Feels natural : The pH value is neutral, which is very close to the lubricant naturally produced by the human body.
Highly compatible: It can be safely used with a variety of condoms, such as latex condom, without reducing their strength like the oil-based lubricants.
Low allergenicity: It is unlikely to cause adverse, reactions, irritation or allergies.
Odorless and tasteless: Odorless and transparent, suitable for oral sex, and will not leave a chemical residue like oil-based lubricants.
From the comparison, different lubricant types serve different market needs:
Water-based Lubricant: “Safest, most widely accepted and common used, suitable for most people with affordable price”
Silicone-based Lubricant: “Longer-lasting and smoother, suitable for extended use, premium choice but price is relatively higher”
Oil-based Lubricant : “More lubricating but not suitable for use with condoms, mainly for massage and special use”
