Silicone Lubes
Silicone lubricants are long-lasting, waterproof intimate lubricants that stay slippery significantly longer than water based formulas without needing reapplication. Made from silicone polymers rather than water, they do not absorb into the skin, do not dry out during extended sessions, and are not washed away by water, making them the preferred lubricant for shower and bath sex, extended play sessions, and anal use where sustained lubrication is essential. The Silicone Lubes collection at Lovva covers pure silicone formulas and hybrid silicone-water blends in a range of viscosities suited to different uses.
About Silicone Lubricant
Silicone lubricant has a distinct set of properties that make it the best choice for specific situations while also making it incompatible with others. It does not absorb into the skin, so a small amount goes a long way and lasts through extended activity. It is not water-soluble, so it is not washed away in the shower or pool. It is hypoallergenic and does not contain water, so it cannot support bacterial growth the way water-containing formulas can. It is compatible with latex condoms. However, it is incompatible with silicone toys because silicone lubricant bonds with the surface of silicone toys and permanently degrades them over time. Knowing when silicone lubricant is and is not the right choice is the most important decision in selecting lubricant.
What Is in the Collection
Pure silicone lubes use dimethicone or cyclomethicone as the active ingredient, providing the longest-lasting lubrication available with the smallest volume of product. They have a silky, lightweight feel and leave a light conditioning effect on the skin. Thick silicone gel lubes are more viscous formulas suited to anal use where a cushioning, longer-lasting lubricant film is most needed. Hybrid silicone-water lubes blend silicone and water based ingredients for a formula that lasts longer than a pure water based lube but is easier to wash off than a pure silicone formula. Hybrids are generally safe with silicone toys if the silicone content is low, but always test on an inconspicuous area of the toy first. Silicone massage oils double as body massage lubricants with a conditioning skin feel. Most products are condom-compatible and fragrance-free.

Choosing a Silicone Lube
Choose silicone lube for shower and bath sex. Silicone lubricant is not washed away by water, making it the only practical lubricant choice for sex in the shower, bath, or pool. Water based lube rinses off immediately in water and provides no lubrication in wet conditions. A thin silicone formula applied before entering the water stays effective throughout.
Choose silicone lube for extended sessions and anal play. The non-absorbing, non-drying properties of silicone make it the best choice for longer sessions where reapplication would be inconvenient, and for anal play where sustained lubrication throughout the session is essential for safety and comfort.
Never use silicone lube with silicone toys. This is the most important compatibility rule in lubricant selection. Silicone lubricant bonds to silicone toy surfaces and degrades the material over time, causing the surface to become sticky, pitted, or damaged. Use water based lubricant with all silicone toys. Glass, metal, and ABS plastic toys are safe with silicone lubricant. If you are unsure of your toy's material, use water based lubricant to be safe.
Check hybrid formulas carefully before use with silicone toys. Hybrid lubes vary in their silicone content. Some are safe with silicone toys. Others are not. Test on an inconspicuous area of the toy surface first and wait several minutes before checking for any surface change.

Caring for Silicone Lubes
Store in a cool, dry location away from direct sunlight. Close lids tightly after use. Silicone lube does not expire as quickly as water based formulas but will separate or change consistency if stored incorrectly. Wash silicone lube from skin with soap and water. Note that silicone lube does not rinse off with water alone and requires soap for removal from skin and fabric.

Frequently asked questions
What is the main advantage of silicone lubricant over water based lubricant?
Silicone lubricant does not absorb into the skin, does not dry out during use, and is not washed away by water. This makes it significantly longer-lasting than water based lubricant, which absorbs and dries during extended sessions and rinses away immediately in water. A small amount of silicone lube lasts through extended activity without reapplication. It is the best choice for shower and bath sex, long sessions, and anal play where sustained lubrication is most important.
Can I use silicone lubricant with my silicone toys?
No. Silicone lubricant bonds to silicone toy surfaces and degrades the material over time, causing the surface to become sticky, pitted, or permanently damaged. Always use water based lubricant with silicone toys. Glass, metal, and ABS plastic toys are safe with silicone lubricant. If you are unsure of your toy's material, use water based lubricant to be safe.
Is silicone lube safe to use with condoms?
Yes. Silicone lubricant is compatible with latex, polyisoprene, and polyurethane condoms and does not degrade any of these materials. It is a suitable lubricant for protected sex. Only oil-based lubricants are incompatible with latex condoms. Both water based and silicone lubricants are condom-safe.
What is a hybrid silicone-water lubricant?
A hybrid lubricant blends silicone and water based ingredients, producing a formula that lasts longer than a pure water based lube and is easier to wash off skin than a pure silicone formula. Hybrids sit between the two formats in terms of longevity, feel, and ease of cleanup. Their compatibility with silicone toys depends on the silicone content of the specific formula. Always test a hybrid on an inconspicuous area of a silicone toy surface first and wait several minutes to check for any surface change before full use.
How do I remove silicone lubricant from skin and fabric?
Silicone lubricant does not rinse off with water alone. Use soap and water to remove it from skin. For fabric, apply a small amount of washing up liquid or laundry detergent to the area before washing. Silicone lube can leave marks on fabric if not treated before laundering. Store with the lid closed to prevent the formula from transferring to surfaces during storage.
