I have an awful time remembering this, but can anyone give me the skinny on what lubes are ok to use with what toys? I used to sell adult novelties like 10 years ago, so I SHOULD know all this. But, since then, theres about a handful of different/new and upgraded materials that toys are made out of these days and I can't keep them all straight LOL. Thanks!

In general, water based lubes are safe to use with everything. Things like glass and metal are safe to use with any lubricant (oil, silicone, or water based). Pure silicone toys can usually handle being used with silicone lubes, but make sure that you're doing a spot test on those to double check before you just start using it. Things that just happen to have silicone in them and aren't pure silicone toys are much more likely to react with silicone lubes. With wood toys, I don't think there's anything really wrong with using an oil based lube, but you can't go wrong with a silicone or water based one either.
