Why Anal Lubricants Should Never Contain Numbing Agents

At Wicked Sensual Care, our lube never contains numbing agents. Anal play can be a staple in your sex life, or a great way to mix things up. However, when it comes to safe and pleasurable anal play, there are some important things to remember.  Unlike the vagina, the anus does NOT self lubricate. Therefore, using an anal lubricant is essential for safety and pleasure. 

Wicked’s Jelle is a water-based lubricant that’s designed specifically for anal use. It features a super thick viscosity in a glycerin free formula, which is never sticky or tacky and provides the right amount of ‘cushion’ for an extremely pleasurable experience. It is important to note Jelle, Jelle Chill, and Jelle Heat do not contain desensitizers. This is essential for safe and pleasurable anal play. 

Why Use Anal Lube?

Wicked Sensual Care anal lubricants reduce the possibility of micro-tears and reduce friction, but do not obscure sensations, such as pain and discomfort, which alert your body to potential safety hazards during play. 

From a medical standpoint, lube decreases the possibility of micro-tears and fissures during sexual activity, reducing the risk of contracting or spreading STIs and HIV. 

Numbing Agents And Desensitizers 

A desensitizer is a numbing agent which when applied to a specific area will block any sensation of discomfort or pain. While it may sound like a good idea to not feel pain, it’s important to feel potential discomfort during anal sex; because if there is pain, it’s a sign that something is wrong. Desensitizing the sensitive anal area during anal sex could lead to more serious issues down the road.

Anal Lubricants Without Numbing

Using a high quality anal lubricant such as Jelle will help to protect against the possibility of injury and enhance the pleasure of all participants.

Remember to trust how you’re feeling, go slow and communicate with your partner and ALWAYS use plenty of  lube.
