The Classics, Sex, Massage and Vaginal Dryness

You probably already know that lube is designed to reduce friction during sex, making the experience much more pleasurable. It’s especially useful when your body doesn’t naturally produce enough moisture – whether due to hormones, stress, or in the case of anal sex, where there’s no natural lubrication at all. Lube is the go-to solution for making intimacy feel good again.

It’s also a great way to relieve the discomfort of vaginal dryness – something that affects many women, even though it’s easily improved with regular use of a good-quality lubricant.

And let’s not forget: silicone-based lubes aren’t just for sex – they’re perfect for massages, too! Since silicone doesn’t absorb into the skin, it stays on the surface and allows for smooth, luxurious movement. Lube is also a great match for your favorite sex toys.

But let’s be honest – you probably already knew all that. So how about the more unexpected uses? Let’s dive into those!

Uses for Lube You Probably Haven’t Heard of Yet

– For Better Hygiene in the Intimate Area
Friction during sex can lead to tiny cracks or irritated skin in the genital area – especially if you already have sensitive skin. That makes it easier for bacteria and infections to sneak in. So if your skin tends to be on the delicate side, make sure you always use a high-quality lubricant to protect yourself. This helps keep your intimate area healthy and pain-free – not just during sex, but in everyday life too.

– As a Moisturizer for Dry Skin
Yes, we’ve mentioned this before – but it’s such a great hack, we just have to say it again. If it’s safe and gentle enough for your most sensitive areas, why not use it elsewhere? Especially water-based lubes can double as skin moisturizers, often enriched with skin-loving ingredients like aloe vera. They’re usually free from parabens, glycerin, and preservatives – making them a great alternative to traditional lotions. Your skin (not just down there!) will thank you.

– To Prevent Blisters and Chafing
If you’re active – whether it’s running, cycling, or just walking a lot—you know how painful skin chafing can be. Inner thighs, feet, under the bra line… the struggle is real. Even on hot summer days, just walking in a dress can lead to thigh rub.

Here’s the fix: Apply a thin layer of silicone-based lube to those problem areas before you head out. It creates a protective barrier on your skin and helps reduce friction. And if you’re breaking in new shoes that start rubbing in all the wrong places—just dab a little lube on the spot. It might just save you from painful blisters.

– For Intimate Shaving
Want to skip the shaving foam or gel? Try using lube instead – especially silicone-based. It forms a smooth layer on your skin, allowing the razor to glide effortlessly. Plus, it nourishes and soothes your skin at the same time. One product, multiple benefits—and more space in your bathroom cabinet.😉

– For Squeaky Furniture Hinges, Windows, or Doors
You’ve probably reached for oil or grease to silence a squeaky hinge – but lube works just as well! A few drops can stop the noise and reduce friction between moving parts. It’s great for doors, windows, sliding panels, blinds, gates… you name it. Lube really is the multitasker you never knew you needed.😉

– When Using Medical Devices
Even when it comes to the use of medical devices, lubricant gel is frequently used. You might know this, for example, from ultrasound exams. In this case, too, the goal is to reduce friction between the human body and the medical device. In fact, lubricant gel offers two advantages in this area: first, it makes the procedure more comfortable for the patient, and second, it often allows for more accurate results. During an ultrasound, for instance, the lubricant gel helps to close the gap between the device and the patient’s skin, enabling clearer imaging.

Although we already mentioned the following uses in our previous article, they are so brilliant that we’d like to highlight them again:

• Lubricant gel is great for removing stubborn price tags and stickers!
• If your bicycle chain starts to squeak, a little silicone-based lubricant gel can help solve the problem.
• Let’s be honest: shoe polish often just sits unused in the cupboard, and when you actually need it, you can’t find it. Save yourself the trouble and simply use a silicone-based lubricant gel. You’ll be amazed at how shiny your shoes will look afterward.
• You can also tame your hair with a silicone-based lubricant gel. Since it contains dimethicone – just like many hair products – it works just as well!

In this older blog article, you’ll find even more uses that you probably didn’t know about yet.

So instead of buying a different product for every purpose, just use the lubricant gel you might already have at home. Or browse through our products and choose a versatile one you can use for different needs. You’ll be amazed at how multifunctional lubricant gel can be!
