A Gentle Guide to Finding the Right Support
Let’s talk about something that’s often whispered about — but deserves a full, confident conversation: lubricants.
Lubrication is not just about making intimacy smoother (though that’s a wonderful bonus). It’s also about supporting comfort, healing, and confidence — especially during times of body change, like:
• Postpartum
• Breastfeeding
• Hormonal shifts (including perimenopause)
• Post-surgical recovery
• Certain medications or conditions that impact natural moisture
The great news? There are high-quality, body-safe options that prioritize your health and pleasure.
Here are a few trusted favorites:
Uberlube
Silicone-based luxury in a bottle.
• Why it’s great: Silky texture, long-lasting without feeling sticky.
• Ideal for: Extended intimacy or when you don’t want to reapply.
• Extra perk: Doubles as an anti-chafe balm and even a hair serum!
Note: Not compatible with silicone toys.
Good Clean Love
Organic and pH-balanced for sensitive tissues.
• Why it’s great: Water-based, gentle, and made with natural ingredients.
• Ideal for: Everyday intimacy, especially if you’re prone to irritation.
• Extra perk: Light, fresh scent without artificial fragrances.
Go Love CBD Intimate Serum
Relaxation meets lubrication.
• Why it’s great: Infused with CBD to help relax muscles, reduce tension, and enhance sensation.
• Ideal for: Navigating postpartum tenderness, pelvic floor tightness, or general tension-related discomfort.
• Extra perk: Broad-spectrum CBD with no THC — no “high,” just good vibes.
Slippery Stuff
A classic trusted by pelvic health professionals.
• Why it’s great: Simple, effective, water-based formula.
• Ideal for: Straightforward, no-fuss comfort that’s compatible with toys and condoms.
Coconu
Nature-inspired moisture that feels luxurious.
• Why it’s great: Coconu offers both a water-based and an oil-based option, designed with organic ingredients.
• Ideal for: Those seeking clean, body-safe products that nourish delicate tissue.
• Extra perk: Their oil-based formula can also be used for body massage — promoting overall relaxation and intimacy.
Note: Oil-based lubricants are not safe to use with latex condoms (they can cause breakdown).
A Quick Word About Oils
You might have heard about using things like olive oil, coconut oil, or DIY oils as lubricant.
And while they can feel moisturizing, there are a few important things to know:
• Oils can disrupt vaginal pH — making you more prone to infections like yeast or bacterial vaginosis.
• Not compatible with latex condoms — oils can cause condom breakage.
• Potential for irritation — especially if you have sensitive skin or are postpartum.
If you love the idea of a natural option, it’s best to stick to products specifically designed for intimacy (like Coconu’s oil-based formula) — so you get the benefits without risking imbalance or irritation.
Choosing the Right Lube for You
When selecting a lubricant, consider:
• Water-based if you want versatility and easy cleanup.
• Silicone-based for longer sessions and less frequent reapplication.
• Oil-based (designed for intimacy) if you want a moisturizing, massage-friendly option (and aren’t using latex condoms).
• Organic/natural ingredients if you have sensitivities.
• CBD-enhanced if relaxation and pelvic comfort are priorities.
And always remember:
What we put on or in our bodies matters.
Choosing pH-balanced, body-safe products helps protect your microbiome — keeping you comfortable, healthy, and empowered.
Bottom Line
Lubrication is a form of self-care and self-respect — not a sign that anything is “wrong.”
You deserve comfort.
You deserve pleasure.
You deserve to feel good in your body.
Always.
