To be clear, there's much more research to be done on the medical benefits of CBD and cannabis in general, especially as it relates to sexual health. OB/GYN Dr. Melanie Bone, the "medical marijuana women's doctor," said she hasn't seen studies that prove CBD is the "secret sauce" to these lubricants, but said that CBD does have a calming factor. Yes - this is actually something we’d recommend. Adding lube into your vibe time can heighten your sensation - making it even more pleasurable. For those who experience pelvic pain and want relief during sex— or for people who just want to try something new in bed — look no further than CBD lube. My first foray into products like these came from TOCA's CBD lubes last summer and since then, my world has blossomed into a CBD lube haven. The science behind CBD lube
It’s completely up to you. We’ve designed our slippery lube to create natural wetness. One pump might be enough, but if you want to do more then go for it! If it feels good you’re doing it right. When it came to testing, we had a lot to choose from including natural options, CBD versions and even bottles of probiotics. There was an endless supply of interesting options to try but all of the products we selected were of very high quality.
What to look for in a CBD lube
It’s designed to be used as a massage oil and a lubricant so is safe to use internally. But do note, as an oil product, it is not safe to be used with latex or silicone toys so will break condoms or glyde dams. That said, it’s still a great product and one we started to use on non-sex days when we felt a bit of vaginal discomfort. The reason for that is due to the different botanical oils including lavender, grapeseed oil and CBD which are used to minimise discomfort. It also created a lovely fragrance which while lovely, is strong so worth noting if you are sensitive to smell. Sexologist Dr. Sadie Allison and CBD scientist and cannabis educator John Renko created GoLove with the goal of having a water-based CBD lube without possible irritants like parabens, glycerin, or stimulants.
If you haven’t done this before, it can feel uncomfortable. We want to be honest about that. Our tip is to go slow, use lots of lube. After some practice it can feel pretty great. Use the right lube to make sure you don’t miss out. The vagina microbiome is a micro-ecosystem that fluctuates during a woman's life and menstrual cycle. The first impression of this product is that it in no way looks like lube. The design, colour choice and wording are so discreet that you could stare directly at it and still not realise.Natural lubricants are becoming a huge market as people are more aware of potentially scary ingredients in other products. The Natural Love Company has created a cruelty-free, vegan version that is made without additives or synthetic chemicals. This makes it a great choice for anyone struggling with allergies or sensitive skin. It felt instantly different to the others as well, in that it’s more of a balm, down to the natural ingredients of olive oil and beeswax. This means it’s naturally anti-bacterial, anti-fungal and high in anti-oxidants, making it a great option for anyone looking for something that looks after vagina health at the same time. It purposely doesn’t use the word “lube” to describe itself as it notes it can be used by people in menopause or experiencing prolapse.
It’s completely up to you. We’ve designed our lube to create natural wetness. One pump might be enough, but if you want to do more then go for it! If it feels good, you’re doing it right. GoLove stands out on this list by virtue of being water-based, not oil-based. This is a big deal because, as previously stated, only water-based lubes can be used with condoms and/or toys. It's the only CBD lube I can use with my pelvic wand. This is potentially great news for chronic pain patients such as myself; while neither of these studies are about vulvas or the pelvis, specifically, the nature of the cannabinoid suggests it can help there as well. CBD is a vasodilator, according to Dr. Brandye, an OB/GYN, sex and pleasure coach and author, meaning it opens up (dilates) the blood vessels. This means CBD lube likely helps with arousal by getting blood flowing to the genitals, which also helps with the production of the body's natural lubricants. We'd definitely recommend using lube with your vibrator. Adding lube into your vibe time can heighten your sensation, making it even more pleasurable.
No two areas are the same especially when it comes to sex. The pH of the vagina, its natural lubricity and skin are very different to that of the anus. By using the right lube you protect yourself against unwanted UTIs and unnecessary discomfort. Brandye works with women who struggle with getting aroused, partly because of the negative loop: they don't enjoy sex, and then they have the memory of it that perpetuates this non-enjoyment. Engaging the senses and enjoying the experience can disrupt that loop. It’s worth noting that this is not safe for latex or toys but is a great natural option if those aren’t being used. Where this product excels is that it offers relief from burning, itching and redness. This is down to ingredients such as olive oil that help to stimulate collagen production and elastin in the skin. From sexy silicone lubes that double as hair products to eco-friendly, water-based formulas, we rounded up seven of our favorite body-safe lubes to add to your collection. Need more tips on how to use it? We've got plenty right here. The reports that do exist are pretty encouraging. Researchers from the University of Massachusetts Medical School concluded in 2016 that CBD may help with inflammation, for example. A 2019 study out of the University of Louisiana stated that CBD could improve chronic pain and sleep in opioid users, and decrease their reliance on opioids as well.
In addition to what's on this list, I also tried Foria's Intimacy Natural Lubricant with CBD, but decided not to include it here as I wasn't a fan of its dropper or water-like consistency; both made for a messy experience. It's also 200 mg per 120 mL, which is a lot lower concentration than the others. Our microbiome prebiotic helps to support that vaginal microbiome to keep the vagina healthy after sex. That's why, at Good Housekeeping , we love to shine a spotlight on any new sex toy and wellness brands that come onto our radar, to help you find the best options for your sex life. So, we were excited to hear about Roam, the brand that puts "pleasure", "people" and the "planet" first.
The verdict: Lubricants
When it comes to scents and flavors, your first instinct may be to run away. According to Brandye, however, they add a different vibe and encourage you to engage with the five senses. This makes the experience more memorable, which helps with the pleasure cycle. First, many, but not all, CBD lubes are oil-based. This is because CBD is a fat-soluble cannabinoid, meaning it dissolves in substances like oil (such as coconut or hemp oil). Oil breaks down condoms and sex toy material, so don't use these lubes — CBD or not — with those items.
