baby oil as lubrication

can we use baby oil as lubrication? what would be the side effects of using it.

I don't think that's a good idea as might disrupt the pH balance of your vagina, depending on what's in the oil. And that can lead to some really inconvenient infections.

Go for a KY jelly or something.

And if you're using condoms, any oil will make them break more easily.

I have not used baby oil but I think it would be too much. Ive used lubrication before and I found for me it could be too much at times and left me feeling nothing. Best stick to lubes designed for the purpose, that do what they say on the tin. lol Water based if using condoms.

If you can to take the time for be to stimulate, you will not necessarily use lubrication.

Well don't use it with condoms. Usually water based lubricants are the best, especially when used with condoms. Baby oil is just a fancy word for mineral oil.

It definitely does feel better than nothing, but there are so many more better lubricants out there I'd give baby oil a 2/10.

Can also cause EXTREME sensitivity if used with genitals that lasts up to days after sexual acts. Most people who use it end up feeling pain the next day if they have sex again or even just try to wash their privates in the shower because the mineral oil leaves the skin so sensitive.

Just use EP90 or castrol bearing grease

No really Don't!

On the subject, what works best for enhancing masturbation. I've only tried Vaseline

I haven't looked, but I'm sure that somewhere on the baby oil bottle it says "For External Use Only". That means, no, don't put it in your vagina. And don't put it on his penis, because it will BE in your vagina.

There are too many lubes out there offered specifically for sexual purposes. Baby oil is not. Do some people use it? Yeah sure. But does it cause severe allergic reactions and infections to some people? Yes.

When it comes to my vajayjay.....I say better safe than sorry. Baby oil is a NO GO.

I definitely wouldn't use anything scented for lubrication--same goes for scented pads and tampons. Try using a water-based lubricant, it's much safer and less likely to cause irritation or infection. Disrupting the pH balance of a woman's vagina is one of the leading causes of infection, so be very careful about what you use.

Best wishes. =]

No it is NOT a good idea! You will very likely end up with a yeast infection or worse. Stick with KY or astroglide which are readily available in any drug store near the condoms and they are reasonably priced. There are many other safe and tested lubricants out there.

I had a girlfriend that used baby oil as lubrication for hand jobs. I used to hate it, but, that's all she would use. It doesn't work very well because after a while, it absorbs into the skin. A lot of the lubrication quality disappears. I wouldn't recommend it for sex at all. There are better things made specifically for sex out there that are a lot better and will stay lubricated.
