what is the thickest water based lube to provide an easier seal

Postby Budward » Sat Mar 16, 2024 8:32 pm

Running out of the lube that came with my VED. The Astroglide Gel is certainly slippery but what I need to plump up is a good think seal which is easier to achieve. Any recommendations of brands, etc.?

I'm not clear on what you're looking for. We like the Sliquid brand. We haven't tried all of their options. Their "Sassy" version tends to be thicker. They are not silicone based. They are water based and glycerine free.

When using a VED I depend on lube to keep my skin from dragging on the inside of the cylinder, which can be a real game stopping problem. However I don't depend on it for making a seal. Perhaps you need to crop your hair a bit closer where the mouth of the cylinder presses.

Good luck

I've never needed any lube to keep a good seal with my VED.
I apply a bit of water to the base of the VED. And I'm good to go.

When it doesn't hold the seal I know it's time for a bit of trim.
The advantage is keeping the bush trimmed gets rid of the excess hair that often gets tangled when using my cock ring.

Also when finished using the VED I rinse off my member to keep it fresh.

My personal favorite is Aloe Cadabra Vanilla. It's water based, thick, smells and tastes pleasant. Somebody previously posted it on FT and I bought it on Amazon.

I second Aloe Cadabra lube. Although I don't use it for VED purposes, it is nice smooth feeling lube.

Shave all the way around your shaft at the base. You can trim your pubes some (not shave) if they're really long.

Rub unrefined coconut oil on your shaft, around your pubic area, and around the edge and inside of your cylinder as far as you can reach with your fingers.

Put the cylinder over your shaft and push it against your pubic bone while simultaneously pulling down on you testicles.

Release your testicles and begin pumping.

I don't use lube for a seal.

The Encore Deluxe VED came with a tube of Aquagel that was plenty thick.
I think it was the same stuff my Dr. used to explore my nether regions.
