Pjur Lubricants

Few names carry as much weight in personal lubricants as Pjur, a German manufacturer whose formulas have become a fixture in bathroom cabinets across the UK. At Lace & Luna, we carry the full range, from the flagship silicone glide through to the specialist anal comfort and latex care lines.

For anyone weighing up formulas before choosing, our broader lubricants collection sits alongside it.

What Pjur Is

Pjur is a personal lubricant and intimate care brand founded in 1995 and manufactured in Germany, producing silicone-based and water-based glides, intimate sprays, anal comfort products, and latex dressing aids. The company states that it manufactures in accordance with the EN ISO 13485 standard, a quality management framework for medical device manufacturing, and distributes to more than 70 countries.

That credential describes process, not outcome. ISO 13485 governs how a manufacturer documents, controls, and traces production and quality checks. It does not make a lubricant a treatment, and we make no health claims about anything we sell. Personal lubricants sold in the UK can also fall under medical device conformity assessment requirements depending on their classification and claims.

In practical terms, the range reduces friction during intimate use, adds comfort when using condoms or toys, and, in the specialist lines, covers anal comfort or the dressing and shining of latex garments.

The Pjur Sub-Ranges at Lace & Luna

Pjur organises its catalogue into named sub-ranges rather than one numbered line, each with a defined base type and purpose.

• Original: the flagship silicone bodyglide, used in drops and designed to stay slick without reapplication.
• Aqua: the core water-based glide, rinses with warm water, and is the default pairing for silicone toys.
• Woman Bodyglide: a silicone formula developed for women, while Woman Nude is a separate water-based option in the same range for those wanting to avoid silicone altogether.
• Med: skin-focused formulations including Med Premium Glide, with fragrance-free and preservative-free variants such as Med Sensitive and Med Vegan Glide elsewhere in the range.
• Analyse Me: anal comfort products available in both water-based Comfort Glide and silicone versions.
• Back Door: anal glides spanning a water-based Comfort Glide and a silicone Relaxing Glide, so check the base before buying.
• Superhero: a men's line of delay sprays and serums intended to reduce sensitivity and support longer sessions. We describe the formulation only and make no performance claims.
• Cult: latex dressing aid and shine products for garment care, not intimate lubricants.

The split matters more than the branding. For longevity and minimal quantity, consider silicone lubricants. If you are using silicone toys or want the simplest clean-up, our water-based lubricants are the safer starting point.

Silicone-Based vs. Water-Based Pjur Lubricants

Silicone-based Pjur products last longer and resist drying out, while water-based products rinse away more easily and are a safe pairing with silicone toys. The main lines compare as follows.

The trade-off is straightforward. Silicone sits on the skin and stays workable far longer, which suits extended use and water play, but it needs soap to remove and can degrade the surface of silicone toys over time. Water-based dries as it evaporates and may need to be topped up or reactivated with a little water, but it washes off with warm water alone.

How Long Pjur Lubricants Last and How Little You Need

Silicone formulas such as Pjur Original are designed to stay slick throughout use without reapplication, while water-based formulas like Aqua may need a top-up or a few drops of water to reactivate. The usual starting amount for a silicone bodyglide is two to three drops, spread rather than poured.

That concentration reframes the price question. Pjur prices here run from around £16 for a 100ml glide to roughly £42 for a 250ml silicone bottle, with 500ml and 1000ml formats higher again, though a silicone bottle used in drops outlasts a water-based bottle of the same volume by a wide margin. Judge the range on cost per use rather than shelf price.

Removal is simple. Water-based products rinse with warm water, while silicone products need mild soap and warm water on the skin and a dedicated toy cleaner on non-porous surfaces such as glass, stainless steel, or ABS plastic.

Condom, Toy, and Latex Compatibility Across the Pjur Range

Pjur's silicone and water-based personal lubricants are formulated for use with latex condoms. Oil-based products are the ones that cause problems: NHS guidance on condoms advises avoiding oil-based lubricants with latex because they can damage the material, while water-based options are suitable.

Toy compatibility needs more care. Silicone lubricant applied to a silicone toy can, over repeated use, soften or tack the surface. If your collection is silicone-led, choose Aqua or Analyse Me Comfort. If you want a silicone glide, keep it to glass, metal, ABS, or skin.

The Cult line is a separate matter. These are latex dressing aids and shine products for getting into and maintaining latex garments, and they sit alongside our Bondage & Fetish department rather than the intimate glides. Do not substitute one for the other.

Choosing a Pjur Formula

Match the formula to the situation rather than the price point. For everyday use with silicone toys, a water-based glide is the straightforward answer. For longer sessions or use in water, a silicone bodyglide is the practical choice. For anal comfort, the Analyse Me and Back Door lines exist in both bases, so pick according to your toy material. For latex garment care, Cult is the only relevant line.

Where skin sensitivity matters, look at formulation attributes rather than marketing language: fragrance-free and preservative-free variants exist within the Med line, including Med Sensitive and Med Vegan Glide. We make no medical or therapeutic claims about any product we sell. If you have a skin condition, a known allergy, or you are pregnant, speak to a pharmacist or GP before use.

Everything we stock is selected in line with our body-safe materials standard and sold to adults aged 18 and over.

Pjur: FAQs

What is Pjur used for?

Pjur products reduce friction during intimate activity, add comfort when using condoms or toys, and, in the specialist lines, cover anal comfort or latex garment care. The catalogue spans silicone body glides, water-based glides, intimate sprays, and dressing aids, all manufactured in Germany by a company that has been trading since 1995.

Is Pjur Back Door water-based or silicone?

Both exist. Pjur Back Door is a family of anal products that includes a water-based Comfort Glide and a silicone Relaxing Glide, so check the base type on the individual bottle. Choose the water-based version if you are using silicone toys, and the silicone version for longer-lasting glide on non-silicone surfaces.

Can Pjur be used with latex condoms?

Yes. Water-based and silicone-based personal lubricants, including Pjur's, are compatible with latex condoms. The products to avoid with latex are oil-based ones, such as body lotions, massage oils, and petroleum jelly, which can weaken the material. Check the individual product label before pairing anything with a condom.

How do you wash Pjur off skin and toys?

Water-based Pjur products rinse away with warm water alone. Silicone-based products need mild soap and warm water on the skin because silicone does not dissolve in water. On toys, use a dedicated toy cleaner on non-porous materials such as glass, stainless steel, or ABS plastic, and follow the manufacturer's care instructions.

What does ISO 13485 certification mean for a lubricant buyer?

ISO 13485 is an international quality management standard for organisations manufacturing medical devices. It governs documentation, traceability, and process control during production. For a shopper, it signals a controlled and audited manufacturing environment. It is not a health claim, an efficacy claim, or a guarantee that a product suits your skin.
