I used to hate lube, too—sticky, clinical, unnecessary. What I didn’t know then was that most of us are choosing formulas that fight our bodies instead of merging with them. Over the last decade, better options have arrived, and once I learned what to look for—and what to avoid—lube stopped giving me the ick and became a multipurpose comfort tool for more than just sex.
I hope this video helps you land in the same place and gives you the lube logic I wish I’d always had.
My favorite lubes and timestamps are below.
