What lubricant should I use with anal toys?

For anal toys, it's important to use a long-lasting lubricant. Silicone-based lubricant is ideal because it doesn't dry out quickly. With silicone toys, it's better to use a water-based lubricant. Never use lubricants containing numbing agents, as they can make you feel no pain.

Good preparation is important. Maintain good hygiene, relax your body and mind, use plenty of lubricant, and start with finger exercises or a smaller toy. Take your time and don't rush. A warm shower or bath can help you relax.

What is the difference between a butt plug and an anal dildo?
