Our Evaluation Process
The 'How We Choose' section for silicone lubricants outlines the objective methodology employed to evaluate and rank products within this category. Key factors in the assessment included specifications such as viscosity, compatibility with condoms, and longevity of performance, as well as customer reviews and ratings that highlight user experiences and satisfaction levels. Specific considerations significant to silicone lubricants include the formulation, safety for various uses (e.g., anal sex, latex compatibility), and the non-sticky nature of the product. The research methodology focused on a comparative analysis of specifications, thorough evaluations of customer feedback from multiple platforms, and a review of the price-to-value ratio to ensure a comprehensive understanding of each product's standing in the market.
Overall scores reflect relative ranking within this category, accounting for which limitations materially affect real-world use cases. Small differences in category scores can result in larger ranking separation when those differences affect the most common or highest-impact workflows.
