What is massage oil for?

Massage oil helps reduce friction between your hands and the part of the body you’re massaging. It makes movements smoother, prevents tugging and other discomfort, and lets you relax without a care. Don’t hesitate to apply it generously to the area you’re massaging!

The different types of massage oil

There are two main types of massage oil, depending on their base ingredient:

  • Massage oils made with natural plant oils. They feel lovely on the skin and are absorbed during the massage. They also have moisturising and softening properties, and may even have antioxidant properties. Most of these oils aren’t intended for use on mucous membranes, so they’re better suited to a ‘standard’ massage. They must also never come into contact with latex condoms, as they make the latex porous.
  • Silicone-based massage fluids (silicone is a mineral derivative). More fluid than oil, silicone offers up to four times as much glide, letting you massage for a very, very long time. Most silicone-based massage oils can be used on mucous membranes, so they’re particularly suited to erotic massage. However, they must not come into contact with silicone sex toys or other silicone objects, as they can damage them.

How do you choose one?

Start with what you fancy!

  • A relaxing massage or something naughtier? Do you want a massage oil for your partner’s back, or are you looking for something more erotic, for a massage that might lead to more? In the first case, you can choose absolutely anything you like! In the second, opt for neutral, gynaecologically tested massage oils and fluids that can be used on mucous membranes or even double as a lube.
  • Edible or not? Some oils taste delicious and give your kisses a sweet flavour. Perfect for oral play, these oils (usually glycerine-based) are thicker and more syrupy than standard oils.
  • Warming or not? Some oils have a warming effect. Heat is wonderfully relaxing for the muscles, making these oils ideal for a soothing massage or for unwinding after exercise.
