A LOWDOWN ON MASSAGE PRODUCTS

Massage is a definitely stimulating activity, which can be very easily turned into a very interesting sexual act. It has health benefits like improving the circulation within your body and making your body warmer. But these are the exact things that make you better aroused for sex. Any kind of massage – a simple backrub or a full body massage including the genitals – can be immensely arousing. Just as a reminder, it is necessary to use a lube for full-body massages.

This is what this article is written for – to tell you about the various kinds of lubrications and other products available for massages. Keep these things handy when massaging. They might be in requirement at any moment.

Massage Oils

Massage oils are not just oils used for your massages; they are important ingredients to add the spice to your sexual encounter. You can convert a boring backrub into the hottest sexual encounter with oily skin rubbing against oily skin. The very feel of a soft, slick oily body is enough to send someone in the highest throes of titillation. There are many fragrances and densities of massage oils available to provide preferential pleasure. Also, most massage oils are non-toxic. Hence, there is no harm if some amount is accidentally ingested also. That means, there could be a nice time with some licking pleasure also.

People who are not very familiar with massage oils should try the small specimen bottles first before going in for a big purchase. The bigger massage bottles weighing 32 ounces are too expensive to be bought without thinking.

The general way to use massage oil is to take a little of it on the palm of the hand, then to rub the hands together to moisten them completely with the oil and then move on to the application on the body of the person. This is in fact the best way to apply the oil. Oil poured directly from the bottle onto the person's body will not feel at all arousing. It is also necessary to have a shower after oil massages.

A full body massage is always preferable with massage oils. Try different maneuvers to apply the oil on the back, arms, neck, chest, legs and buttocks of the person. If you want to use the oil for genitals also, then you must check the label on the bottle if it is safe for that purpose. If the person you are massaging has a sensitive skin, it is better to test out a small portion of his or her skin with the massage oil first. One more thing to remember is that massage oils are not meant to be lubricating oils for penetration purposes.

Massage Lotions

One reason why some people do not like massage oils is that they are slippery and that they might leave residues behind on the skin which do not go away with a single shower. Also, they might cause allergies like breakouts on the skin. That is the reason why people with oily skins prefer using massage lotions. Massage lotions are like moisturizers, so they are very good on people who have dry skins. They can provide better skin contact with the partner.

There are different kinds of massage lotions available. If it is a simple backrub you want to give to your partner, then a hand lotion is enough. But otherwise, special lotions made for massage purposes must be used. Lotions titillate women better because of their aromas and even tastes. However, it is advisable to avoid the athletic toned lotions if you are planning to have sex during the massage. These lotions have mentholated aromas, which can be a turn-off during sex.

There is no difference between the ways massage lotions and massage oils are used. The only thing is massage lotions will come out in thick drops. Rub about a tablespoonful between your hands and then slowly work it on your partner's body. Lotions will get absorbed fast in the person's body – especially if he or she has a dry skin – so you will need to reapply the lotion several times. Also, if you feel the lotion is drying up in the middle of the act, you could just sprinkle some water on the body to make it come alive again.

Do not use massage lotions when you are using latex objects such as condoms and some sex toys. Check the bottle for allowances to work on latex products. It is extremely harmful to use massage lotions on the penis and insert it into the vagina or the anus of the partner. This can cause serious harm to the woman's genitals. Also avoid introducing the lotions in the mouth by licking the partner's body when smeared with the lotion.

Warming Oils

If you want a hot genital massage, then warming oils are the best to use. Warming oils are edible oils and edible oils are generally safe to use on the genitals. Warming oils work the best on small areas of the skin, and hence they are the best for sexual stimulation. You can try them on breasts, buttocks, thighs and the underarms and just watch the effect.

Application of the warming oils is done in the same way as massage oils and lotions. They should be rubbed on the palms and then worked on the body in slow strokes. Slowly, the warming oils should be worked into the skin, and a new supply must be taken from the body. As the name suggests, these oils will heat up the area on the skin on which it is applied. This will heighten the sexual stimulation.

Again, most warming oils cannot be used with latex products, unless the label suggests otherwise. Warming oils should not be used for penetration, even though they can be safely – and effectively – used on the genitals. Also, check out the warming oil on the skin of the person before applying. Some people might be hypersensitive to such products.

Now that you know about the various massage products available, it is for you to think and see what suits you best. Whenever you are meaning to have a hot sexual night, it is advisable to keep some massage products handy and see if you will need them. Massage products last for several years without changing at all. The only indication that something has gone bad with the oil will be an offensive odor and presence of residue at the bottom in the bottle.
