How to use Sylk
End the dry spell
Sylk provides immediate relief from vaginal dryness. Its gentle, effective formula means it is the perfect solution for dryness whenever it hits. Whether for sex or everyday comfort, you can be confident Sylk will hydrate and nourish your intimate parts. As Sylk is water-based, it is safe to use with condoms, tampons, sex toys and pelvic toners. You can use Sylk when pregnant and breast-feeding.
Using Sylk 40g bottle
Everyone’s bodies and needs are different but generally one or two drops applied with your fingertips in and around your vagina just before sex is sufficient. For complete lubrication, you could apply some to your partner’s penis too. For relief from general vaginal itching and soreness, start off with a few drops and use as and when you need.
Using Sylk single dose applicators
Snap off the end by pushing it back and forth. Hold wider end whilst inserting the narrow end into your vagina and squeeze gently - you can sit, lie or stand to do this. The applicator contains a generous dose so you may not need to use it all. Gently remove the applicator and discard after use.
Use with tampons
Many women also find that Sylk is beneficial during periods, and can help make tampon insertion easier. A couple of drops can be added to the tip of a tampon before insertion.

Our Single Use Applicators can be stored in your bag and used flexibly, as and when you need it.
Important Note
- You must only use a baby friendly lubricant when trying to get pregnant as many lubricants including Sylk can affect the mobility of sperm
