Lube & Essentials

The right essentials make every toy work better and last longer. This hub pulls together the basics you’ll use time and again. A good lube can transform the feel of any toy — from vibrators and dildos to anal sex toys, where a thicker anal lube is often the best choice.

Play doesn’t have to stop at toys. Bondage gear pairs naturally with massage oils, cleaners, and other extras that keep your kit safe, comfortable, and ready to go.

Everything here is body-safe, sourced from trusted brands, and sent in plain packaging across the UK. Stock up on the essentials today and you’ll always be ready for the moment.

Lube and essentials don’t grab headlines like some new toys, but they always make everything work smoothly. The right lube stops discomfort, reduces friction, and protects skin. Condoms bring that layer of safety. Cleaners keep toys hygienic and extend their life. Renewal powders stop sleeves from becoming tacky. Candles and oils create the right mood and help a session last longer. These are the details that turn a good experience into a reliable one.

Picking the right lube

Not every product suits every use. A thicker lube holds better during anal play, so it’s the natural partner for butt plugs. Lighter formulas are quicker to apply and work better with smaller insertable toys. If you own a Fleshlight, the brand’s own Fleshlube comes in warming or cooling options, whilst making it feel as real as possible. It also cleans out easily and stops the surface from breaking down over time.

Flavoured lubes are worth a mention too. They taste great and can make oral fun more enjoyable. Choose sugar-free blends that won’t upset the balance of delicate areas. Condoms are also part of the picture. They protect everyone and also keep toys cleaner, especially when sharing. Always use water-based lube with condoms to avoid damage.

Essentials for toy care

A good toy can last years if you look after it. Wash straight after use with warm water and a mild sex toy cleaner. Harsh soaps aren’t needed and can do more harm than good. Dry toys thoroughly before storage. Some come with their own bags, which is enough to stop dust building up. For larger strokers and premium sleeves, renewal powder keeps the material smooth and avoids the sticky feel that can appear once they’re dry. This is especially important for male sex toys made with lifelike materials. There's nothing worse than getting an amazing toy, and ruining it by not looking after it.

Extras that set the mood

Not every essential is about cleaning or lube. The atmosphere around you changes how a session feels. Ambiance candles & massage oils add light, scent, and touch. Massage oils double as foreplay, while candles give a warmer setting and help you slow down. These aren’t gimmicks — they’re tools that set the pace before getting down to business.

Matching products with toys

Some toys benefit from specific preparation. Strap ons need plenty of lube for comfort, and thicker products stop friction when movement is repetitive. Remote designs like love eggs should sit securely and comfortably for longer wear, which is only possible with the right prep. Essentials aren’t extras here — they’re what make the toys work as intended.

Care and safety

Always check the label before use. Stick to body-safe, paraben-free products. Use more lube than you think you’ll need, as dryness is the main cause of irritation. Don’t skip cleaning — bacteria build quickly in warm, damp materials. Wipe bottles and caps after use too; it saves you finding a sticky mess next time.

Delivery and privacy

Everything is shipped in plain boxes with no logos. Essentials are stocked alongside toys so you can get everything you need in one order. With fast UK delivery, you never have to run short of the basics.
