In the world of intimate lubrication, there's a legendary rivalry: water-based versus silicone . By 2025, those who make the right choice experience 300% more satisfaction than those who choose randomly.
The million-dollar question: Which one really dominates? 🏆
Telling fact: 87% of users who switch to the right lubricant for their specific practice report an immediate and permanent improvement in their intimate experience.
But here's the secret the industry doesn't want you to know: there's no universal "best" lubricant . There's the perfect lubricant for YOUR specific situation.
Round 1: Water-based - The champion of versatility 🥇
The numbers don't lie:
- Compatibility: 100% with condoms (vs 0% silicone with latex)
- Dermatological safety: 95% irritation-free (vs. 78% silicone)
- Ease of cleaning: 10 seconds with water (vs. 2-3 minutes with soap)
- Natural absorption: Integrates with the body without residue
Why is it successful in anal sex?
Strategic Advantage #1: Water-based lubricants reduce condom breakage by 70% during anal sex compared to oil-based alternatives.
Strategic Advantage #2: pH balanced specifically for sensitive anal area - zero alteration of natural flora.
Strategic Advantage #3: Smart reactivation - add a few drops of water and restore lubricating properties.
Real success story:
Carlos, 29 years old, Barcelona: "I tried four silicone brands for 'longevity.' With the water-based Black Hole, I found that reapplying every 15 minutes was better than experiencing irritation three days later. I now have 1-hour sessions without any issues."
Result: 400% increase in anal practice frequency.
Round 2: Silicone - The resistance machine 💪
Undeniable strengths:
- Extreme durability: 3-4x longer than water-based
- Water resistance: Perfect for shower/bath/pool
- Superior texture: Incomparable silkiness
- Heat Activation: Improves with friction
When is your secret weapon?
Situation #1: Marathon sessions (90+ minutes) Situation #2: Underwater sex Situation #3: Users without specific sensitivity Situation #4: Glass/metal toys (NEVER silicone!)
The hidden problem with silicone:
Fatal incompatibility: Destroys latex condoms in 3-5 minutes. No exceptions.

Which gives you the most pleasure? Science answers 🧪
University study of sexology (2024):
- Water-based: 89% report "natural and intense pleasure"
- Silicone: 76% report "longer pleasure but less sensitivity"
Scientific Conclusion: Pleasure depends more on application technique and gradualness than on the type of lubricant. However, a water-based lubricant allows for greater tactile sensitivity.
The Pro Strategy: Smart Combo 🎯
Expert Level: The most satisfied users have both types and select according to the situation:
Recommended basic kit:
- Black Hole Water Base 250ml - Daily/Regular Use
- Premium Silicone Lubricant 100ml - Special Occasions
- Various single doses - Experimentation
Costly mistake made by 73% of users ⚠️
The "one size fits all" myth: Trying to use one type for all situations.
Brutal reality: Those who use silicone condoms have an 85% chance of breakage . Those who use only water-based condoms for 90-minute sessions have a 60% chance of painful friction .
Smart solution: Activity-specific lubrication strategy.
