LifeStyles Skyn - male condom discontinued by Ansell - review by LeeKR

Okay. First things first—if you or your partner have a latex allergy get these. Right now.

We've tried a lot of non-latex options and these condoms are by far the most normal feeling condoms that we’ve found so far; I’m a detachable cock user myself so the sensation affects me very little but my partner says they feel right. We've also found them to have less of that condom-y flavor and smell which makes these awesome for oral sex. Durability is always a plus too. Despite the thinness these guys can really take a pounding–pun intended—which is great for us since we tend to tear it up given half the opportunity. They are perfectly lubricated so there's none of that weird sticky condom feeling; use more if you’re going anal (that’s just common sense though).

One of the biggest pluses that I have found about these particular condoms is that they do not react poorly with any of the dildos that we have which is saying something because there are lots of them made from many different things. This has been an issue for us in the past (I once pulled off the entire outside layer of one of my cocks when I peeled the condom off) so it’s quite lovely to have found something that is no longer a nuisance in that department.

The only cons I can think of off the top of my head are as follows:

1.) The foil wrapping on these condoms is particularly tricky to get into. Generally there is a little “Tear here” spot which for some reason unbeknownst to me seems to be sorely lacking on the SKYN packaging. Weird but true in my experience.

2.) They only come in one size and while these are in fact super friggin’ stretchy, everything has a breaking point. I've only ever had one of these break on me and that was on a cock that was particularly girthy (2.75 ”diameter). That said, if you are a well endowed guy or just have a big cock finding something safe and durable could be more of a challenge.

These are still my go to condoms. They are wonderful for every type of play and my partner (not the same one from the original review) also says that they feel right to her.
