Water and silicone for me. I'm still yet to find a water-based lube that I really love, but all the delightful silicone toys out there make it a necessity. If I could find a water-based lube that did vaginal sex as well as my beloved silicone, I'd be in heaven.

water or silicone. i've found those to be the best & last the longest! have tried just about all the 'sensation' ones, they don't really do anything for me.

I only use water-based lube, so I don't have to worry about messing up my silicone toys.

I try to use all water-based "everything free" lubes because I'm so sensitive. I got the new V lube that is hypo-allergenic and I am in love with it!

I won't even own any silicone lube because I'm too scared to get some accidentally on any silicone toys.

I love oil based lube, but that doesn't work with condoms.

Waterbased without anything extra. I've been thinking about trying a silicone lube, but keep talking myself out of it.

All the ones I have are waterbased. I want to eventually try silicone too, but I'm still doing my research.

I mostly use water based lubes and I prefer the organics ones. But any Sliquid is great in my opinion.

We do too - but we don't need condoms so we're good with vegetable-based oils like cocoa, shea and almond butter/oil.

I pretty much exclusively use water-based. My partner and I have tons of silicone toys, for one. And I generally prefer the feel, for two.

The majority of my toys are silicone so water-based for those, silicone for the other glass metal etc, warming i like to use on fleshlight to get rid of that cold feeling they can have.

I use silicone and water based, cooling and heating, and I chose other.
I love Wet Synergy Hybird lubricants.

A little bit of everything. From nipple/flavor creams to the jelly you don't put on toast. These are always in my "spice rack" of LUV. I just wish I had someone to "host" my Love. I hate knowing kids in HS get more action than I have, in years. A very sad fact.

I like variety, but I really like water and silicone-based. I've recently gotten into cooling, because I love the tingly sensation, and I'm going to try warming soon! I've also heard good things about oil-based, although I haven't given them a try yet.

Flavored would be a good catagory too. I just stick to water based, and some tingly ones.

Strictly waterbased because of my toys. Im always afraid anything else will damage my toys!

I prefer oil based most of the time. But I use mostly water based with toys.

Water based is my mainstay because I like to use silicone toys, but for other purposes (like fisting) I love oil based or silicone

Water-based only for me these days, because it's quick and easy to clean up and it plays well with my silicone toys (and most of my toys are silicone). I've recently discovered Sliquid-brand lube (based on people here recommending it, actually), and I really like it. I have the H2O liquid and the Sassy gel varieties. I like both, but I slightly prefer the Sassy gel over the thinner liquid. It seems to last a little longer, and it holds to my slicker toys a little better. Sliquid lubes don't have any glycerin or nasty chemicals that can cause issues for some people. I used to get yeast infections constantly, which I now realise was probably due to the glycerin in the lube I was using. I haven't had any problems since I switched to using Sliquid products. (I swear I'm not being paid to advertise for Sliquid, I just really like their lube.)

I used to use silicone-based lube for vaginal and anal partnered sex. I loved how slick and long-lasting it was, but I hated how hard it was to clean up. I remember one time I'd fully showered after sex, only to realise after I'd dried off that I'd somehow missed a lubey patch on my buttcheek, and had to go back into the shower to wash it off. Compared to water-based lube that can be effectively cleaned up with a simple wet wipe, the clean-up for silicone-based lube is just too much work for me.

The only thing I don't like about water-based lube is that it doesn't work very well in the shower or bath, for obvious reasons. I'm still trying to work out a good solution to that problem.
