Flavoured & Fun

Flavoured & Fun

condones de sabores exist for a very practical reason: latex has a characteristic smell and taste that many people find unpleasant during oral sex, and a flavored coating covers them up. They are not a joke product. Those with the CE marking protect exactly the same as a standard condom, and that is the line that should be clear when purchasing.

What are they used for?

Its main use is as a barrier in oral sex, where it significantly reduces the risk of transmitting infections and makes the experience more pleasant. In penetrative sex they work the same as any other certified condom, although there is one nuance that deserves mention: many flavored condoms contain glycerin and sugars in the lubricant, and these sugars can promote fungal infections in some people if they are used vaginally on a regular basis.

The simple rule is to use the flavored one for oral sex and switch to a standard sugar-free one for penetration, changing condoms between one thing and another.

Sugar-free and latex-free flavor

There are versions flavored with sweeteners instead of sugar, which are the sensible option if you are prone to yeast infections. And there are also those without latex, in polyisoprene, for allergies: they protect the same as latex, unlike those made of natural leather, which do not protect against infections. You have them at Latex Free.

Novelty and protection are not the same

This is the most important point of the category. Some novelty type products, with glow in the dark, curious shapes or gift presentation, are not certified as a barrier method and only serve as a joke. The way to distinguish them is direct: CE marking and reference to the EN ISO 4074 standard on the box. If they do not appear, that product does not protect, no matter how convincing the packaging is.

Correct use

One at a time, never two overlapping, because the friction between them increases the risk of breakage. Open the envelope with your fingers and not with your teeth or scissors. Check the date on the individual envelope and store the boxes in a cool, dry place, away from your wallet and the glove compartment of your car. If you add lubricant, whether water-based or silicone-based, from Water-Based: the oils deteriorate the latex in minutes. Exclusive sale for people over 18 years of age.

Why are they not used for penetration

It's not that they don't protect, it's that most contain sugars or sweeteners in the flavored layer, and these sugars can alter the vaginal balance and promote infections. That's why the usual recommendation is to use them for oral sex and switch to a standard condom for the rest of the encounter.

The exceptions are the models that declare a sugar-free formula, which does work for everything. It is information that appears on the box and it is advisable to look at it, because it completely changes the use that can be given to the same box.

What to look for in the box

The CE marking, which is what guarantees that it is a medical product and not a joke item; the nominal width, which decides the comfort; and the mention of sugar or sweetener in the list of ingredients. With these three pieces of information, you can choose well in thirty seconds.

Which flavors work best

Citrus fruits and mint are the ones that best cover the characteristic smell of latex, which is the main reason for purchasing. Very sweet flavors, such as strawberry or chocolate, are liked at first and tiresome sooner, especially if the encounter lasts longer.

It is worth keeping in mind that the flavor is in the outer lubricating layer and is lost with use, so the intensity of the first minutes is not what is maintained. A variety pack is the cheap way to find out what works without committing to a whole box of something you may not like.
