Hi, Im new here so sorry if this is in the wrong topic or if this is a dumb question. I recently brought some water-based lube from here and it was advertised alongside toys you would normally use internally but the bottle says otherwise? does anyone know if I can use it internally, Im scared of getting a infection lol
the product is: https://www.lovehoney.co.uk/lubes-essentials/lubricants/water-based-lubes/p/lovehoney-enjoy-water-based-lubricant-250ml/65525.html
@Disastergoblin 
external typically means do not ingest. As in its a topical ointment. Internal means any open wounds that can get into bloodstream, eyes, smoking, and mouth. I’ve used this lube before… no problems. No need to be worried about any questions you have
What a stupid thing for the bottle to say!
Yes, definitely fine to use internally with toys and as @Stuck_nomore says, I suspect they just mean it shouldn’t be injested… though other flavoured lubes can be so I wouldn’t be too worried even with that.
@Stuck_nomore , however, I don’t think it’s anything to do with the bloodstream as both through your vagina and, more so, any liquids used anally will be absorbed into your bloodsteam to a certain extent. It’s why idiots who pour vast quantities of alcohol into their butts get alcohol poisoning as it gets absobed into the blood steam really fast, bypassing the liver.
Think its a legal thing they put on, but obviously you’re going to use it “inside”
I agree with what others have said. It is the new litigious world we live in, with disclaimers everywhere.
As everyone else says, its fine. We use this on toys, fingers, and him if im having a drier day depending on the time of the month. Think it just means, dont eat it or use it as a topical lotion.
okay thank you so much! I found it so confusing lmao
That’s okay. Better safe than sorry
