Durex Play Feel Lube 50ml

Good All Round!

This was the first lube I ever used. There are similar ones on the market from Pasante, Mates, Superdrug etc, but I thought Durex is trusted and well known so it must be good and, most importantly, safe.

I wasn't wrong!

I'd never used lube previously because, frankly, I'd never seen the need. I don't really have any problems with lubrication down there!

But...

My partner and I began to have sex more than once a day. Sometimes up to five times! And our sex sessions can last a long time! Sex was beginning to get sore, uncomfortable, and downright painful after about the second time. So I was losing enjoyment. My partner suggested we should use a little bit of lube, and I'm glad we did. (My friend had given me some a few weeks previously, so I had some to hand.)

Just one pump or two is really enough. What I did was spread it across the condom and then it slipped in a lot easier and all my discomfort instantly vanished. It’s nice and slippery, it doesn't stain and doesn't smell or irritate.

With it being water-based it is condom-safe. It's so cheap and good value you'd be better off buying this than trying Vaseline, or baby oil or other products you have lying around the house (I never have, I'm very careful like that!).

I do sometimes reapply more than once during sex, but that's just me. Sometimes we have sex for a very long time and I like to feel very wet for the whole time so I don't get sore. The lube isn't sticky at all, and doesn't go tacky. It's also easy to wash off from intimate areas. And as well as being great for sex you could also use it for solo play if you wanted.

I'd say this lube is good for anyone who is just looking for a simple lube to make things a bit more slippery and wet (or a lot more, depending on how much you use!). I also think it's really good for lube beginners/virgins (such as myself). The pump is attractive and really easy to use, which is good when you're "in the moment". It's a simple good all-rounder at a bargain price. The pump is a good size as well, not too small. This is my lube of choice. I personally wouldn't pay more (some lubes are £10+) for fancy expensive lubes as this is Durex and it does what it promises.
