How to Choose the Right Lube for Your Needs

Choosing the right lubricant can dramatically improve your intimate experiences — whether you’re exploring solo, playing with a partner, or using toys from Toysfourplay. At Toysfourplay, Malta’s most experienced and longest-running adult shop, our friendly staff is here to help you find exactly what you need — no judgment, no embarrassment, no shaming.

Why Your Lube Choice Matters
Not all lubes are created equal. The right formula enhances comfort, pleasure, and safety. At Toysfourplay, we offer a wide variety of lubricants for all preferences and life stages, ensuring there’s something to match exactly what you need.

Water-Based Lubes: Everyday & Toy-Friendly
Water-based lubricants are the most common and versatile. They’re compatible with all types of toys, including silicone vibrators and dildos, and they're gentle on sensitive skin. Because they rinse off easily, they’re ideal for day-to-day use, but you may need to reapply during long sessions.

Silicone and Hybrid Lubes: Long-Lasting & Luxurious
For longer play or wetter conditions, silicone and hybrid lubes are top choices. These formulas last far longer than water-based ones. Just be careful: pure silicone lubes shouldn’t be used with silicone toys, though hybrid formulas can pair safely with many materials.

Specialty Lubes for Specific Needs
At Toysfourplay, we stock specialty lubricants — warming, cooling, flavored, and thicker anal lubes. We also cater to life changes: for example, we carry Simply-brand lubricants specifically designed for menopause. These formulas are crafted to offer extra hydration and comfort during this sensitive phase of life.

Menopause & Intimate Wellness
Menopause can bring hormonal changes that affect natural lubrication. The Simply line available on our website (toysfourplay.com) features products free from glycerin and parabens, designed for gentle but effective hydration. They are great for those who are very sensitive.  One standout is the Simply Timeless Aqua Waterbased, a silky water based lube that provides a smooth, long lasting glide with extra hydration.  Enhanced with rejuvenating Ingredients and PH Balanced.

How to Choose Wisely

• If you're using silicone toys: stick to water-based lube.
• For long-lasting slickness: try a silicone or hybrid formula.
• Sensitive skin? Opt for glycerin-free or natural lubes.
• Experiencing menopause? Check out our Simply formulas for extra moisture.
