If you do use condoms, opt for a water-based lubricant that\u2019s fragrance-free to enhance pleasure. Consider polyisoprene (latex-free) condoms if you have a latex allergy.<\/p>\n<p>A good one to try: Blossom Organics Natural Moisturizing Lubricant. It is an organic, water-based lubricant that&#8217;s pH balanced to reflect a woman&#8217;s chemistry. Free of parabens, alcohol, silicones, hormones, artificial fragrances, or dyes, this lubricant is compatible with both natural rubber latex condoms and polyisoprene condoms. We also like NATURALOVE Organic Personal Lubricant, another non-irritating, water-based lube that\u2019s naturally flavored with organic agave and chamomile (Buy now: $16, shop.womenshealthmag.com<\/a>). \u00a0<\/p>\n<h3><strong>RELATED: <\/strong>Sex Shouldn&#8217;t Be Painful.
