Key Points

• Anal play requires lube—always. Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn’t self-lubricate, so using a high-quality anal lubricant is essential for comfort, safety, and pleasure.

• Choose the right lube for your needs. Water-based lubes like Wicked Jelle are beginner-friendly and toy-safe, while Jelle Plus gently relaxes muscles without numbing, and Jelle Heat/Chill adds sensation play.

• Avoid numbing lubes and DIY options. Desensitizing products can increase the risk of injury. Stick with body-safe, tested lubes like Wicked Sensual Care’s Jelle collection for a more enjoyable experience.

Comfort, Confidence & the Best Lube for Anal Exploration

Let’s be honest—anal play can feel a little intimidating if you’ve never tried it. But with the right mindset, communication, and most importantly, the right anal lube, it can become an exciting, pleasurable, and even empowering part of your intimate life.

This guide is here to help you get comfortable with the basics of anal lubrication and play. Whether you're exploring solo or with a partner, we’ll walk you through how to choose the best anal lubricant as well as practical tips for pleasure, comfort, and safety—no shame, no judgment, just good info.

We’ll also spotlight some of Wicked Sensual Care’s most trusted anal lubes—including Jelle, Jelle Plus, Jelle Heat, and Jelle Chill—and explain why choosing the right one matters for your body and desires.

 

Why Lube Is Essential for Anal Play

Let’s start with the big truth: there’s no such thing as too much lube during anal play. Unlike the vagina, the anus doesn’t self-lubricate. That means using the right anal lubricant isn’t just helpful—it’s essential.

Here’s what the right anal lube does:

• Prevents tearing and microtrauma 
• Reduces friction and discomfort 
• Increases pleasure and ease 
• Supports a safer, more relaxed experience 

jessica drake, Wicked Sensual Care’s Director of Product Development and a certified sex educator, puts it best:

“Comfort is the foundation of pleasure. A great lube turns apprehension into confidence—and helps people explore anal play with curiosity instead of fear.”

Flavored Anal Lubes for Analingus

Analingus (aka rimming) can be a deliciously intimate experience—but flavored lube makes it safer, tastier, and cleaner for everyone involved.

Birthday Cake & Blueberry Muffin Flavored Lubes

• Water-based, body-safe 
• Taste like dessert (literally)

• No sugars, no parabens, and toy-safe
  

Why they work: Adding flavored anal lube during rimming not only makes it more enjoyable—it can help ease nerves and create more positive associations with anal play.

Perfect for: Rimming, oral on butt plugs or beads, or just adding fun to foreplay

 

 

Is Numbing Anal Lube Safe?

Let’s clear this up: while numbing creams or desensitizing anal lubes are widely available, they’re not recommended by most sexual health educators.

Why not?

• They mask pain signals your body uses to protect itself 
• They can increase the risk of tearing 
• They can dull both discomfort and pleasure 

Instead of reaching for numbing anal cream or anal numbing gel, choose a product like Jelle Plus, which gently relaxes without desensitizing.

 

How to Use Anal Lubricant: Step-by-Step

Using lube for anal doesn’t need to be complicated, but technique matters.

How to Apply:

1. Start with clean hands and a clean anus 
2. Warm up the lube between your fingers. 
3. Apply a generous amount to your anus and any toys or fingers being used. 
4. Reapply as needed—more is more when it comes to anal! 

How often to reapply?
Every 10–15 minutes is common, especially with water-based lubes. If things start to feel sticky or dry, that’s your cue.

Tip from jessica drake:

“Use lube as part of your foreplay, not just penetration. Let it be part of the ritual. Massage it in. Enjoy it.”

 

Cleaning Up After Anal Play

Clean-up is just as important as prep. Anal play involves bacteria, so proper hygiene is crucial.

Foam & Fresh Toy Cleaner

• Foaming cleanser that’s toy-safe and body-safe 
• Antimicrobial and unscented 
• A must for anal toys 

Why it works: You want to keep your toys (and your body) safe without using harsh chemicals. Foam & Fresh is a gentle powerhouse for post-play peace of mind. You can even take a shower with your toys and/or partner afterwards to get all clean together!

DIY Anal Lube? Think Twice.

Search terms like DIY anal lube might seem tempting—but homemade lubes often lack pH balance, safety testing, and toy compatibility.

Skip the kitchen and stick to science-backed products. Your body will thank you.

 

FAQs: Quick Answers to Common Anal Lube Questions

Is water or silicone-based lube better for anal play?

Water-based is better for beginners and toy use. Ultra Silicone is longer-lasting but not always toy-safe.

What’s the best anal lube for sensitive skin?

Try Jelle Plus, which has no harsh chemicals or numbing agents and uses natural relaxants.

How much lube should I use?

A lot. Seriously—use more than you think you need. Reapply as needed throughout your session.

 

What’s the best lube for anal toys?

Water-based lubes like Jelle or Jelle Heat/Chill are safe for all toy materials.

 

Start Slow, Lube Generously, and Stay Curious

Anal play is one of the most misunderstood—and most rewarding—forms of intimacy out there. With the right tools (like a high-quality anal lubricant), education, and consent, you can explore it safely and confidently.

Whether you’re after the best lube for anal toys, seeking a natural anal lube that supports your body, or just looking for the best lube for anal sex in general, Wicked Sensual Care has your back (and your booty).

Happy Anal August — if you’re into that sort of thing — and I sure am! In fact, in the 15-ish years I’ve been a sex educator, I’ve done so many online and in person workshops on anal sex –- from Anal 101 for beginners to way more advanced topics. Anal sex is just one of those things that stands the test of time — it’s not “trendy” like the Grapefruit trick, it’s something people are really into, or at least curious about. At the end of every anal class, I allow attendees the opportunity to ask me questions, and I’ve heard (nearly) everything. In honor of this month, I’ve curated a list of the top 3 questions I’ve received time and time again. 

 

Before we get started, I want to make a few things clear about anal sex: 

 

1. You may be one of those people who have ZERO interest in anal sex, or you’ve tried it and it’s just not for you…and that’s OK! No need to do it solely to please your partner, but please let them know It’s not for you and suggest other things you could try together instead. Take a look over HERE. 

 

2. All bodies are different. Although I’m often speaking from personal experience, I’m also using some universal facts and methods for enjoying anal play. Your job is to take in that info and get to know what works for you, and often that’s best accomplished by spending some solo time exploring your body. And now, my most asked anal questions, in no particular order: 

 

Q - My partner wants to try anal sex, but I’m not sure I want to. What should I do? 

A - Nothing you don’t want to do! Anal isn’t required, no matter how much your partner wants it. If you’re thinking about trying anal sex, ask yourself what turns you on about it? Some people enjoy the taboo of it, some people love the way it feels, while some people enjoy the power dynamic. Now think about what makes you reluctant to actually try it. In my experience, people are usually concerned with two main things: the possibility of it being messy or the fear of pain. 

 

The reality is, anal sex *may* be messy, no matter the type of prepping you do, so if you’re super squeamish or your partner is, anal may not be your thing. As for the pain, although anal sex is a VERY different feeling if you’re not accustomed to it, it shouldn’t hurt. Pain is our body’s way of saying to slow down or stop what we’re doing, it’s a sign that something is wrong, so if you’re experiencing pain during anal sex, it could mean you need more lube (check out our ANAL collection) or it could mean you need to go back a step or two. Perhaps a gentle “gateway” to anal play can be gentle external exploration, with lubed fingers and an agreement of no penetration.

 

Also, rimming may be a good option, with a dash of your/their favorite flavored lube to turn you into an even tastier treat! Often, incorporating some light anal play with zero expectation of penetration takes the pressure off everyone involved and gives the receiver a chance to get comfortable, and time to decide if they want to go further. 

 

Q - How do I make sure anal play isn’t messy? 

A - You don’t. Even with the most thorough prepping, things can still happen, so like I said before, if this is a deal-breaker, you’ll need to stick to exterior stimulation only. That being said, there are a few options for anal hygiene: Watch your diet a few days beforehand. 

1. Cut out fatty, sweet foods, spicy foods and red meat. Being more regular means more dependable bathroom habits, making it easier to “schedule” anal play- or at least know what times to avoid.
2.  Have a shower and clean all external areas thoroughly with a gentle, pH balanced soap. If you want to groom or shave, do it the night before or the day before, to avoid any extra irritation.
3. Some folks prefer to use an anal douche or an enema. A word of caution- although you can find these in your nearest drugstore, you do NOT want to use the liquid inside. That’s a saline laxative, and you definitely don’t want to be doing that right before anal.If you like the comfort of a disposable enema, just pour out the liquid inside and refill it with room temperature water. If the water is too cold, it may cause cramping, if the water is too warm, you won’t get a complete cleaning. Please follow the directions on the box- it will explain the position to put your body in during insertion and how long to keep the water inside you. Using an enema takes practice. Please don’t do it for the first time right before you think you’re ready to have anal sex.
4. Another way to mitigate any mess that happens is to play in the shower using a good silicone lube- that way cleaning up is easier. You can also put towels down on the surface that you’re playing on. Here’s something really important- when we’re having anal sex for the first time or the tenth time, things can still get messy.

 

Bodies are bodies, meaning that they’ll do what they do when they do it. If this happens to you or your partner, please don’t make a big deal of it. Embarrassment or shame is a really common reaction in these cases, but reassure your partner or yourself that these things happen. Take a break, clean things up if you need to, and decide if you want to continue or if you want to switch things up and try something else. Anal sex is really a process, if you’re able to communicate with your partner and be flexible, it makes things so much easier. 

 

Q - What’s the best product to use to make sure anal sex doesn’t hurt? 

A - I say this time and time again: Anal sex should NOT hurt. It may be a really different sensation. There may be a lot of pressure. Things may feel tight or uncomfortable (at first) but if you’re having pain with anal sex, please just stop. Pain means something is wrong, it means your body is telling you to stop. Listening to your body is important so you’re not causing serious damage to some really delicate areas- that’s why numbing products are so dangerous. 

 

A numbing cream may help you “accomplish” anal sex, but when you aren’t able to feel what you’re doing, not only will you not know when something goes wrong, you also won’t be able to feel the amazing sensations that can come from anal play. 

There are a few types of lube I recommend for anal sex, and they’re all a part of our anal collection:

• My personal favorite, Ultra Silicone, is a great anal lubricant because it’s a thicker silicone that lasts and is great for shower sex.
  
• Jelle (the original) is amazing because it’s a super thick water based gel anal lube that stays where you put it, gives you a cushion, and cleans up easily with water.
• Jelle also comes in Heat or Chill, so once you’ve had some practice, you can give sensation play a try. Warming and cooling sensation lube can be a fun way to add to anal exploration and while they’re formulated for insertion, you can also use them for external play and still feel the sensations!
• One of our newest releases is something I recommend for ALL first timers or for people who want to give up risky numbing products. Jelle Plus is a thick, water based gel anal relaxing lube enhanced with soothing aloe and vitamin E that ALSO contains ingredients (NOT NUMBING AGENTS) like clove oil and jojoba to make your anal experience more comfortable. Remember, when it comes to anal play, there’s no such thing as too much lube!

How to Have Anal Sex: Sex 101 with Jelle

The post Your Top Questions About Anal Play Answered by jessica drake appeared first on Wicked Sensual Care | Lubes & Enhancers.

It’s Masturbation May! As someone deeply passionate about sexual wellness and empowerment, I’m super excited to dive into one of my fave personal subjects: the art of self-love and the pure joy of masturbation. This month isn’t just a celebration of solo play; it’s a perfect time to get in touch with your body and explore pleasure in new ways. Here are a few tips and fun product suggestions to enhance your self-love sessions!

Why I Celebrate Masturbation

Masturbation is such a powerful way to understand your desires and preferences in a totally safe and comfy space. For me, every session is like a mini-journey of self-discovery. Whether you’re a newbie or a self-love pro, each moment of exploration builds confidence and gives you personal insight into what gets you off — and that makes it easier to explain it to someone else!

My Go-To Tools

I love mixing things up with toys. If you’re looking to enhance your experience, why not try adding some playful companions to your repertoire? A great starter toy is a simple external vibrator. Pair any toy with Wicked Sensual Care’s Toy Fever to add that extra sensation and make your toys glide smoothly.

Setting the Perfect Scene

I find that setting the tone makes a big difference. I love to dim the lights, light a few candles, and put on music to match my mood- I’m seducing myself! Sometimes, I’ll even treat myself to a warm bath with oils beforehand. It turns my self-love time into a really indulgent treat.

Trying New Things

If you’re anything like me, you might find yourself in a bit of a self-pleasure rut. Why not shake things up? Slow down your pace, explore edging—where you bring yourself close to climax and then back off. This method has transformed my orgasms into something spectacularly intense. Or, experiment with different times—morning sessions really invigorate my day, and a nighttime routine helps me sleep better than a sleeping pill.  

I also love to use Wicked Sensual Care’s Awaken clitoral stimulation gel. If you have a clit and haven’t tried this out yet, I highly recommend it! Awaken has amazing cooling and warming botanicals that spice up every touch, making my skin tingle in the very best way.

Lube: A Must-Have

Seriously, even if you think you’re fine without it, give lube a try. It’s a game changer. Lube isn’t just for people with “problems”- it decreases friction and increases pleasure. To make things glide effortlessly, I recommend Wicked Sensual Care’s Jelle. It’s extra-thick, perfect for any kind of play—external, internal, or even anal.

Penis Pleasure, Too

For those of you who enjoy a bit of indulgence in penis pleasure, don’t forget about Wicked Sensual Care’s Créme. It’s a fantastic external stroking cream for penises that I’ve found adds a velvety touch that really enhances the experience.

Connecting Deeply with My Body

Masturbation is so much more than just aiming for an orgasm—it’s about bonding with your body. I love to focus on every little sensation. Which strokes make me gasp, which pressures send me over the edge? Knowing these helps not only during solo play but also when I’m with a partner.

The Many Benefits

Here’s a fun fact: Regular self-pleasure can improve your sleep, boost your mood, and even enhance your immune system. I always say it’s my favorite form of self-care!

Breaking the Silence on Masturbation

Talking about masturbation can still feel taboo, but it’s such a normal and healthy part of our sexuality. This month, I challenge you to open up about your experiences. It’s amazing how sharing can help demystify and normalize self-pleasure.

Understanding the Prostate

The prostate, often known as the “male G-spot”, is a small muscular gland that plays a crucial role in the reproductive system of those assigned male at birth. It’s nestled deep inside the groin, acting as a source for a portion of the fluid in semen. While its primary function is reproductive, many people have found it to be a source of immense pleasure.

Prostate Health is Paramount

Prostate health is undeniably essential. Routine check-ups can help identify early signs of conditions like prostate cancer. But apart from medical screenings, did you know that regular prostate massages can decrease the risk of certain conditions, like prostatitis?

Delving into Prostate Pleasure

Loving your prostate isn’t just about health checks; it’s also a pleasure powerhouse. Stimulating the prostate can lead to intensely satisfying sensations, and many find it to be a key component of their intimate experiences.

How to Safely Explore

1. Start Slow and Steady: Just like any new intimate experience, it’s essential to take things slow. Start with a gentle self-massage using a thick lube, which will not only heighten the pleasure but also ensure a smooth and safe exploration.

2. Opt for the Right Lube: Speaking of lube, make sure you’re using one that’s tailored for the experience. One of Wicked Sensual Care’s Jelle anal lubricants is a top pick for many who venture into prostate play.

3. Upgrade with Toys: As you get more comfortable, you can explore prostate toys, like Aneros’ Helix Syn Trident Prostate Toy, to take things up a notch.

Let’s Break the Taboo

Every person deserves to know their body, understand its nuances, and revel in its potential for pleasure. Whether it’s through a routine medical check-up or a weekend exploration session, remember to prioritize your prostate health and happiness year-round, not just in the month of September.

Prostate health is an essential aspect of men’s wellness, often shrouded in misconceptions. Acknowledging its role in both health and pleasure is vital. By understanding and embracing prostate care, men can enhance their sexual experiences while staying informed about their health, breaking down the barriers of stigma and misinformation.

Cheers to a month of awareness, understanding, and utmost pleasure with Wicked Sensual Care by your side. Happy Sexual Health Awareness and National Prostate Health Month!

The post Destigmatizing Prostate Health and Pleasure Play appeared first on Wicked Sensual Care | Lubes & Enhancers.

September is Sexual Health Awareness Month and National Prostate Health Month, and a great time to remember that health is a full-body and mind affair. Prioritizing and discovering personal pleasure is just as important to sexual health as medical testing, and Wicked Sensual Care

What is Sexual Health

Sexual wellness is a combination of mental, emotional, physical, and social health. Using protection against STIs and staying up-to-date on all recommended health screenings are important, but it’s equally integral to pay attention to your pleasure and overall well-being. 

According to experts, sexual health includes “the ability to understand the benefits, risks, and responsibilities of sexual behavior; the prevention and care of disease and other adverse outcomes; and the possibility of fulfilling sexual relationships.” Discovering what brings you pleasure and selecting the right lube to enhance your pleasure are both crucial for balanced sexual health. 

The Role of Lube in Sexual Health

Lube plays a vital role in sexual health and personal pleasure, which should always go hand-in-hand. Using the right lube can not only enhance sensations and pleasure during intimate experiences, but can even help improve sexual health through it’s anti-microbial ingredients. Wicked Sensual Care is the best lube company to choose with sexual health in mind.

Why Using Lube is Important

It’s 2024 and lube is in. Wicked Sensual Care lubricants are formulated with body-safe ingredients intended to enhance pleasure and contribute to overall sexual health. Using lube during any intimate experience decreases friction, which helps prevent microtears to the skin. Micro-tears can introduce harmful bacteria into your bloodstream, which means using the right lube (in addition to other forms of protection) should be part of your overall health and wellness regimen. 

Choosing The Right Lube Ingredients

Choosing a lube with the right ingredients can also help contribute to your overall sexual wellness. Wicked Sensual Care’s water-based, hybrid, and silicone lubes all contain high-quality and body safe ingredients that are safe for internal or external use. Our simply line features biostatic olive leaf, and is also glycerin and propylene glycol-free. 

September Is Prostate Health Month

If Sexual Health Awareness Month wasn’t enough reason to celebrate and stock up on lube, September is also National Prostate Health Month. If you have a prostate, we want you to pay attention to its health and happiness! While you will want to schedule regular screenings for prostate cancer, also give your prostate a little love through things like self-massage. 

Embrace Your Prostate

The prostate is a gland located inside the groin between the penis and the anus. It supplies part of the seminal fluid that mixes with sperm from the testes during ejaculation. Regular prostate massage has been shown to reduce risk of prostatitis and some cancers, and regular self-checks can alert you to early indicators of issues. This little gland also happens to be an erogenous zone. Whenever you explore this region, always make sure to use plenty of lube to increase pleasure and wellness. 

Best Prostate Toy Lube

Exploring your prostate with fingers and Jelle anal lubricant are great to start, but when you’re ready, we suggest utilizing the Helix Syn Trident Prostate Toy to explore more. 

Happy Sexual Health Awareness and National Prostate Health Month!

The post Why Sexual Health Matters appeared first on Wicked Sensual Care | Lubes & Enhancers.

It’s officially Anal August! Before you read all the ways to celebrate  Anal August with Wicked Sensual Care, I want to share some information from Anal workshops I’ve given throughout the years. 

At the beginning of class, I ask folks what their top concerns are about anal play. Here are the top 3 concerns about anal sex I have heard over and over again (Bear in mind, these are folks who have already agreed to take the class, so we can assume they’re into anal or at least anal-curious):

1. I’m worried about pain from anal sex.

This sentiment has come from people on both the giving AND receiving end of anal penetration. Sometimes, people who are reluctant to engage in anal sex, have had a negative, painful first experience they’re afraid to repeat. Pain is an important sign during any type of anal penetration- it’s our bodies’ way of saying something’s wrong. Anal sex can feel different. Intense. Stretchy. Full. But if you’re experiencing pain, it’s a sign to go back a step or two. 

Use a smaller toy or plug. Fewer fingers. Stop penetration and go back to exterior stimulation, focusing on masturbation. Always use plenty of lube. After you’ve used plenty of lube, use more. Please do NOT use numbing creams- these desensitizers can lead to serious injuries. Instead, warm up slowly and be mindful of the sensations in your body.

2. What if anal sex is messy?

Having anal sex CAN be messy. It’s part of the territory, and if you’re with someone who is just too squeamish to handle it, you may want to stick to external anal stimulation only. There are a few ways to prep for anal sex, from having a shower and washing the anal area with soap and water to using a water-based enema, or even changing your diet days before play. 

As you’re figuring out your body, you’ll find the way that works best for you. And if accidents do happen, stop, do a clean up, and decide if you’d like to keep going. Don’t make a big deal of it- it happens. Some people like anal sex in the shower, and some throw down a towel on the bed beforehand.

3. Is anal sex only for gay men?

You may be surprised how many people with penises have asked me this question. The answer is no. It just means you enjoy anal pleasure. 

Hopefully, by reading this, you’re feeling more confident exploring anal pleasure. Taking some time to learn what you’re into before sharing with a partner may be helpful- Happy August!

Sweater weather has its charm, and we love adventures which give us the opportunity to snuggle up and make our own heat too. So, if you have a get-away plan, don’t forget to pack the essentials. Here are our must-have recs to ensure your winter weekender is sexy and delicious. 

ULTRA

If you booked a cabin with a hot tub or jetted bath you’ll want to pack Ultra silicone personal lubricant, which is perfect for water play. Its long lasting, velvety smooth formula stays where you put it, repelling the water around you so your intimate session can go the distance. Even if you move from the shower to the fireside, our lube is never heavy, greasy, or tacky. Ultra promises a silky smooth beginning and end, resulting in blissful satisfaction.

AQUA HEAT

Just in from a day on the slopes or snowshoeing around the lake? Warm up with a hot toddy, a roaring fire and our sensual Aqua Heat. This water-based lubricant gently warms the skin where it is placed, creating an urgency in your desire. Purposely crafted with a unique blend of warming elements Aqua Heat will thrill your bits as it increases personal moisture and drives wanton lust.Experiment with this to create truly memorable intimate experiences.

JELLE

If the plan is to increase intimacy by exploring anal play, be sure to pack Jelle. This water-based product is magically thick, long-lasting, and stays exactly where you put it. Designed specifically for use in and around the booty (which doesn’t lubricate on it’s own), Jelle provides extra cushion for superior glide, while assuring the recipient retains full sensation. To ensure maximum ease and infinite pleasure, apply it liberally during foreplay and penetration.
