Pjur

Pjur is THE benchmark for silicone lubricant, the one professionals mention first. German-made and ultra-concentrated: one drop is enough, and the glide lasts a long time, even in the shower. It’s my top-of-the-range pick for staying power, especially for long sessions or water play. The only thing to remember: don’t use silicone lubricant on a silicone toy—use a water-based one instead.

Water-based lubricant

What is Pjur?

Pjur is a German brand founded in 1995 and considered one of the world’s leading lubricant brands, especially for silicone lubricants. Its highly concentrated formulas mean that a small amount provides long-lasting glide, even in water. The range includes silicone- and water-based lubricants, care products, sprays, and specialized products, all meeting German quality standards.

Silicone has two areas where it is unbeatable: water (shower, bath), where a water-based lubricant would wash away, and long sessions, where it does not dry out. Pjur takes this principle further with formulas so concentrated that one bottle lasts a very long time, making the price easier to justify. For anal play, its staying power is also a real advantage — as long as you do not use it with a silicone toy.

Frequently asked questions about Pjur

Because its formulas are highly concentrated: silicone doesn’t dry like water; it stays on the surface and remains slippery for a long time. So a small amount is enough for an entire session. That’s what gives Pjur its reputation and makes it so economical, despite the higher price per bottle.

Silicone-based for maximum staying power and water play; water-based whenever a silicone toy is involved, as silicone could damage the toy. Both are excellent quality from Pjur. So the choice mainly depends on how you plan to use it at the time.

Not with a silicone toy: silicone lubricant can damage its surface over time. For these toys, choose a water-based lubricant. Pjur silicone lubricant is still perfect with glass, metal, or for sex without a toy.

The silicone base is, in fact, one of its advantages: it is water-resistant and doesn’t rinse off immediately, making it ideal for use in the shower or bath. The water base, on the other hand, dissolves in water and doesn’t last as well in that setting. For water-based play, go for silicone.

Yes, Pjur lubricants are generally compatible with latex condoms, but check the product labeling to be sure. Avoid any oil-based product with latex, as it can weaken it. Water-based lubricants remain the most universally compatible choice.
