Ah, the unforeseen consequences of living in the midst of a pandemic. With everyone spending more time at home, folks are blasting through their lube supply. At the same time, lube production has been disrupted by shutdowns as well as bottling facilities prioritizing the production of hand sanitizer over personal lubricant. Who would’ve thought that covid would lead to personal lubricant shortages?
If you’re having trouble finding your favorite lube, especially in these times of covid, or if you want a more natural and package free option, there are lots of resources online to help you make your own homemade lube from scratch! To make it easy, we’ve done the research and summarized our findings into this handy blog article.
Any latex barrier is best paired with a Water Based Lube. A homemade lube with oil in it will breakdown a latex barrier and lead to a tear, rip, failure, etc… This applies to sex toys of unknown material composition as well. Anything that says latex, natural rubber, TPE or TPR on the packaging will be degraded by an oil. Best to stick with a water based recipe if any of this applies.
Homemade lube should be used within a couple of days. Because it doesn’t have all the preservatives and engineering of a commercially available lube, it doesn’t have a long shelf life. Remember when using items in your pantry, if it’s too old to eat, it shouldn’t go in any other orifices either. Homemade lubes should be stored in the fridge for 3-4 days max or as stated in the recipe.
Be aware of allergies. Do not use any ingredient that you would not eat or otherwise use on your skin. Almond oil or coconut oil aren’t safe choices for someone with a nut allergy, for example. Adding essential oils might smell nice, but keep in mind they may irritate sensitive skin. Also, essential oils should always be diluted in plenty of an oil base and should never, ever be applied to skin directly.
Never use sugar, honey, sweeteners, dairy or animal products. This is a recipe for a fungal and bacterial breeding ground. Not good news for you or your partner(s).
