Best Silicone Lube of 2024 for Smoother Sex
This list is a compilation of our personal favorites, reader recommendations, and top sellers from the MQ store to make a list of the best silicone lube by category.
The Benefits of Silicone Lubricants
Silicone-based lubricants offer several benefits over other types of lubricants. Firstly, they are long-lasting and do not dry out quickly, so they do not need to be reapplied as often. They also have a smooth, silky texture that can enhance sexual pleasure and reduce friction during intercourse. Additionally, silicone-based lubricants are waterproof and safe for use with latex condoms. They are also hypoallergenic and generally do not cause irritation or allergic reactions in most people.
However, it is important to note that silicone-based lubricants may not be suitable for use with silicone sex toys, as they can break down the material over time. They may also be more difficult to clean up than water-based lubricants, as they do not wash away easily with water and may require soap or other cleaning products to remove. Despite these potential drawbacks, many people prefer silicone-based lubricants for their long-lasting and smooth texture, especially for water activities or during intercourse where prolonged lubrication is desired.
Best Silicone Lube
Silicone lubes are easily our favorite of any type and here’s why: they are super slippery, high-performing, long-lasting, and easy to clean up.
This combined with the fact that they are 100% condom safe makes them my top recommendation for anyone looking to purchase a sexual lubricant.
Pjur Original Body Glide is the best silicone lube because of its longevity, quality ingredients, and overall feel and performance. As a consistent top seller year over year, Pjur works well for all types of sex, toys, and for solo play.
Pjur Original Bodyglide
We have been a fan of Pjur for years, and although there are a lot of other great lubes out there with similar feels, I have yet to try a lube that surpasses the feeling and quality.
Pjur Body Glide is extremely slippery and in terms of sheer lubrication, it does the best job of reducing friction and increasing pleasure. The best way to describe the consistency would be like a thick syrup.
It is easy to apply, stays on, and lasts long when you need it, but is then a cinch to clean up after. If you are looking for an all-purpose high-performing, high-quality lube then Pjur is the best silicone lube out there.
MQ Reader Review:
An amazing staple of our sex life – “This is a must-have for our daily sex life. It is an amazing product. It doesn’t get sticky and washes off the sheets very easily. Also, the bottle is made so even if it gets tipped over only a little will spill out. I suggest this product for anyone that likes silicone-based lubricants. I don’t think there is another product on the market that comes close to the lasting power of Pjur Original Body Glide. we always buy the 100ml but might have to move to a bigger bottle because we love it so much and use it daily.” – Risque Chalet

Gun Oil Silicone Lubricant
As a close second, Gun Oil is a more heavy-duty alternative for the power user. It has a thicker consistency and ideal for extended play. I really like Gun Oil’s packaging because of the discrete nature of the bottle. Nothing about it suggests “sex” and if anything you might be mistaken for owning firearms.
MQ Reader Review:
Very slidey…NOT sticky – “The wife and I love the product. We have tried many others but this lube is the BEST.” – man
You might have noticed that I also have Gun Oil listed on our list for the best anal lubes because the extra thickness makes it ideal if you are super tight. This added durability makes it the highest-performing, most durable, and best silicone lube in its category. If heavy duty is what you are after, then look no further.

Swiss Navy Silicone Lube
Swiss Navy has been an MQ Store top seller for over 5 years now and remains one of the best silicone lubes on the market. This is thanks to the smooth silicone base and overall performance that you can get from Swiss Navy.
One of Swiss Navy Silicone’s strongest points is endurance. This is a lube that you can apply once and have continuous, slick, slippery sex without the need to re-apply. Believe us when we say that a little bit of this lube goes a long way.

Best Value Silicone Lube
These are silicone lubes that give you the most lube for your dollar. We are talking about ounces of lube when compared to the price. These are still high-performing options but will offer you the best value when choosing the right lube.
ID Millennium Silicone Glide
As one of the bigger lube brands, ID may not be quite as premium as others on this list, their silicone lube performs surprisingly well. ID Millennium is a similar consistency to Pjur which feels very smooth and “glides” across the skin.
MQ Reader Review:
Broke the mold with this one! – “I love I.D. Lubricants to begin with but they really broke the mold with their Millennium lubricant. Not only is it easy to clean off of your body and provides a non-sticky, non-greasy feel… you can use this in water! That’s right you read correctly… IN WATER! This lubricant will stay slick in the water as well as in the bedroom! You can go in the hot tub and use this… or the pool… shower… or tub… anything with water and it will remain on your skin!”
Because it is a less premium brand you will also save yourself a few dollars ounce-per-ounce, so if you are looking to branch out and try something different then ID is a great alternative. Regardless, ID Millennium is the best silicone lube for the more mainstream buyer.

Mood Original Silicone
I recently discovered Mood Silicone this year and decided to add it to the list because of a reader’s suggestion. Overall, I am impressed with the performance and ease of use. It feels great but isn’t sticky or runny like other products I have tested.
One of the big problems I have with a lot of lubes is in the packaging, especially with silicone lubes which, unless you wash off, will stick around on the bottles. This makes taking the cap off a pain and sometimes a struggle to use. Thankfully, Mood Silicone has addressed this with a pump design that lets you easily add more lube with only one hand. On top of this convenience, Mood Silicone is a great feeling silicone lube in its own right.
MQ Reader Review:
One Slick-Lube! – “I have tried a lot of silicone lubricants, but this one tops them all. Superslick, pure silicone. Made with only 2 silicone ingredients (nothing else!) it is as premium as you can get.”
