These add scent or taste but can irritate sensitive skin.

Some people enjoy them; others find them uncomfortable. Try them only once you know a standard gel suits you.

Common in water-based gels and fine for many people, though some prefer glycerin-free formulas.

Most water-based gels contain them. If you have known sensitivities, check the list.

Many women prefer a light, fragrance-free water-based gel, particularly for products and for longer sessions. Wearable and app-controlled products, such as those in our range for her, all pair well with a water-based gel.

For men using a masturbation cup or sleeve, plenty of water-based lubricant makes a big difference to comfort. Our guide to the best masturbation cups in India explains why it suits soft sleeves.

Couples often keep one versatile water-based gel within reach. It suits shared products, rinses off easily and is a gentle option for newlyweds too; our suhagrat guide explains why a little lubricant helps.

Silicone is the reason to choose water-based: silicone lubricants can damage silicone surfaces over time. Put a thin layer of gel on the egg and any contact area, and reapply if it starts to feel tacky. Afterwards, wash it with warm water and mild soap, and keep the remote dry. Our egg and panty vibrators guide covers the style in more detail.

A thin layer of gel adds glide and comfort, which is especially useful the first few times. The egg itself is small and quiet, so the whole routine stays simple and private.

Anyone starting out who wants a simple remote product and one versatile gel to go with it.

Its silicone body calls for a water-based gel. Because the body is waterproof, a few drops of water can refresh a gel that has gone tacky, and it rinses clean under running water afterwards. Keep the charging contacts dry. Our guide to the best remote and app-controlled vibrators compares it with similar designs.

Gel reduces friction while the app lets you choose gentle patterns, so starting low and adding glide as you go keeps things comfortable.

Anyone comfortable with their phone who likes to see every pattern on screen and wants a quiet, easy-to-clean product.

Use plenty of water-based gel inside the sleeve before you start, and add more if it begins to dry. Avoid silicone lubricants with soft sleeves. Afterwards, rinse the cup, wash gently with mild, fragrance-free soap and let it dry completely. Our guide to the best masturbation cups in India explains why water-based suits them.

Lubricant is the biggest factor in comfort with any sleeve. A generous amount keeps things smooth, and because the cup is waterproof, it rinses clean afterwards.

Water-based gel is the safe default for shared use with a silicone wearable, and it rinses off easily. Keep a small bottle within reach so reapplying does not interrupt the moment, and patch test the gel first, as described above.

A shared product works best with a gel both partners find comfortable. A plain, fragrance-free water-based gel keeps the focus on connection rather than on the product.

Couples who enjoy remote play and want one versatile gel for both of them.

Comfort-led couples who like the idea of gentle warmth alongside a simple gel.

Not at all. Comfort varies with mood, stress, hydration, time of day and many other everyday factors. Lubricant is simply a comfort aid, used by people of all ages.

Not necessarily. A short, clear ingredient list matters more than branding or price.

It does not. Silicone lubricant can damage silicone products, which is why water-based is the safe default.

Many people use it on their own, with products or simply for comfort. There is no single right way to use it.

Some people enjoy them, but others find them uncomfortable. Try a plain gel first.
