Thankfully, despite it being a CBD product, it doesn’t have a hemp smell which can happen. CBD is thought to potentially increase blood flow so it can help if you are struggling to get in the mood. This is a good product for anyone interested in starting CBD for “down there” or during. The bottle and marketing is cheerful, bright and not at all scary or an information overload, so it feels approachable and easy to use. The first thing we noted when we saw the bottles from Roam was the braille on the side of the bottle. This is the only time we have seen something like this on any of the bottles. It wasn’t a discreet placement eitherm but the entire side of the bottle. We never think of lube as needing to have a well thought out design or be inclusive but Roam highlights how clever little additions can make a product. Here, we've compiled an edit of the Roam products that we're loving at the moment. And, if you're looking to invest in your sex life, we think the brand has some brilliant offerings. Whether you're searching for a vibrator, condoms or lube made from natural ingredients, these are the Roam items that are on our radar...

We decided to try a broad range of products including oil and water-based lubes. While some did state if they were toy or condom-friendly, it’s always worth doing extra research if you are unsure. The lubes were used with toys of different materials and there were no issues. Each was examined in terms of smell, texture and ingredients to see what they offered.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. 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. 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. 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.

Oomf is, quite simply, a brilliant product. The lube has been designed by a team that includes a gynaecologist and it shows, by how hard working this product is. It contains CBD which is thought to help with blood flow and discomfort by engaging with our bodies’ endocannabinoid system receptors that manage pain or anxiety. S8’s vegan lube contains a good amount of aloe vera which makes it a great choice for anyone looking for a soothing product. Aloe vera is thought to be moisturising and calming when used on the skin. This is something we never realised was a thing for “down there” but here we are. The extra moisturisation from the aloe vera leaves is thought to aid sensation and glide. CBD, like cannabis overall, still needs to be studied more closely. CBD lube also isn't a cure-all, and while I've found it beneficial for pelvic pain, everyone's body is different. Further, the FDA doesn't currently regulate CBD lube, so a potential customer — you! — have to do your due diligence when choosing a product. Hoo Raa’s lube has been designed for “frictionless fumbles together or alone” with 240mg of CBD isolate added for good measure.We can interrupt that [negative] cycle and give a positive experience and have the reinforcements of, 'Oh, that smells good,' 'Oh, that tasted good,' 'Oh, that felt good,'" she explained, "And it helps to create a more positive effect and a more positive response to sex." 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. 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.

We'd definitely recommend using lube with your vibrator. Adding lube into your vibe time can heighten your sensation, making it even more pleasurable. While CBD is fat-soluble, using a surfactant breaks down the surface tension of the fat-soluble molecules so it can be used in a water-based lube. Renko explained this using the analogy of water and grease when you're washing dishes: Water and grease (fat) don't mix unless soap — the surfactant — is present, and that helps clean the dishes. 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. Lube makes pretty much every type of sex better, end of story. It's crucial for anal sex, as the rectum isn't self-lubricating, and it enhances vaginal sex as well. There are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for lube. It's wise to avoid glycerin, parabens, and sugars, as they can lead to yeast and bacterial infections for people with vulvas. Numbing agents are also a no-no: You want to feel more, not less, and pain is an important signal that you could be going too hard or fast. Oils are also not the best choice for vulvas since they've been known to lead to irritation, and they're also not latex-friendly and could even break a condom. Silicone-based varieties are great since they're long-lasting and fantastic for butt stuff, but they don't mix well with silicone toys — liquid silicone can degrade solid silicone. Never fear, intrepid lube user, there are a plethora of water-based options available for your next pegging session.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. 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. 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.

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.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.
