Safe Liquids to Use Inside a Squirting Dildo

Waterbased Lubricant

Waterbased lubricant is great for getting that perfect cumshot with your squirting dildo. Its thin, smooth texture makes the squirting motion feel realistic, while remaining body-safe and easy to clean. Waterbased lube works with all toy materials, including silicone, so you don't have to worry about damaging your toys. Pair your squirting dildo with your favourite waterbased lube for a satisfying, safe, and hygienic experience. Just be careful where you're aiming it! No one wants an accidental face full of lube. Accidental being the operative word.

Flavoured Lubricant

If you're planning to get a good mouthful of things, you might like to sink your teeth (figuratively, not literally) into some flavoured lubricant! Flavoured lubricant is perfect for oral play or tasting scenarios, adding an extra layer of excitement to your squirting dildo. Strawberry, raspberry, caramel, chocolate ... there's bound to be a flavour you enjoy.

Always choose a water-based, body-safe formula. Expert tip: Make sure you check the ingredient list on each bottle before trying them out! You never know when something might cause irritation. No one wants an allergic reaction in their fun-zone or a fat lip from sucking on an allergen-filled dildo.

If you're looking for a taste of something a little more realistic, try a cum lube! These lubes are designed to mimic the texture, opacity, and consistency of the real thing, giving you a lifelike squirting experience.

Whether you're playing with a partner or solo, you can get that big finish you're after. Choose body-safe versions, and keep in mind the difference between water-based and hybrid formulations: water-based lubes are easier to clean, while hybrid lubes offer longer-lasting realism. Unscented options are also available if you prefer the look and feel without a smell.

What Not to Put Inside a Squirting Dildo

Now that you know the best liquids for a safe and satisfying experience, here's what you definitely shouldn't put inside your squirting dildo:

• Food products - milk, yoghurt, syrup, cream, and similar items can cause odors, bacterial growth, or infections.
• Oils - including oil-based lubes, which can degrade your toy and are difficult to clean.
• Non-body-safe substances - soaps, chemicals, alcohols, or anything not designed for sexual use can irritate or harm intimate areas. Water is fine to use, but it won't provide a realistic consistency. For more guidance on safe and compatible liquids, check out our Lube Guide.

How to Fill and Use a Squirting Dildo

Using a squirting dildo is simple, but following the steps carefully ensures the best experience: 1. Fill - add your chosen lubricant or liquid to the dildo's internal compartment. 2. Test pressure - gently squeeze or pump to check the flow and make sure everything works smoothly. 3. Release - use the bulb or syringe mechanism to squirt during play.

Keep in mind that squirting mechanisms can vary between toys, so some use a squeeze bulb while others rely on a built-in pump or syringe. Be sure to read the instructions that come with your dildo before use. For help selecting the right toy for your needs, see our 5 tips for buying a squirting dildo.

Cleaning and Aftercare

After all the fun with your squirting dildo, it's important to give it a thorough clean to maintain hygiene and prevent bacteria buildup. If possible, detach any tubing, pumps, or removable parts. Rinse each component with warm water and a mild soap or a quality sex toy cleaner.

Once cleaned, let all parts air dry completely on a towel in a well-ventilated area before reassembling. For more detailed guidance on maintaining your toys, see how to clean your sex toys and how to store your sex toys safely.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

To keep your squirting dildo safe, hygienic, and working properly, steer clear of these common mistakes:

- Using incorrect lubes or food products: stick to body-safe, compatible liquids.

- Skipping cleaning of internal tubing: leftover residue can lead to bacterial growth.

- Overfilling: too much liquid can cause leaks and messy accidents.

- Using incompatible toy cleaners: avoid alcohol-based or harsh chemicals that can damage your toy.

Following these tips will help you enjoy a fun, safe, and realistic squirting experience every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What liquids are safe to use inside a squirting dildo? Body-safe, water-based liquids are best. This includes water-based lubes, flavoured lubes, and imitation semen lubes. Water alone is fine but won't feel as realistic.
• Which liquids should I avoid putting inside my squirting dildo? Avoid any liquids that are sticky, sugary, oily, or difficult to clean. This includes flavoured drinks, milk-based liquids (unless you can clean immediately), and anything that could spoil or leave residue. Never use silicone-based or oil-based lubricants inside the toy's reservoir, as these can damage the material or clog the mechanism.
• Can I use silicone lube in my squirting dildo? No. Silicone lube can damage silicone toys over time and is difficult to wash out of the internal tubing. Always stick to water-based lubricants if you want a slicker texture.
• How do I fill and use a squirting dildo Most squirting dildos have a removable syringe, bulb, or reservoir that you fill before play. Draw your chosen liquid into the chamber, reconnect it to the toy, and test the flow before insertion. Once you're ready, squeeze or press the pump to control when and how much liquid is released.
• How do I clean a squirting dildo? After use, empty any remaining liquid and flush the internal tubing with warm water until it runs clear. Use a mild, unscented soap or a dedicated sex toy cleaner for the outer surfaces. If the toy is waterproof, you can submerge it briefly to clean but always check the manufacturer's instructions first. Let it air dry fully before storing.
• Can I use water in my squirting dildo? Yes, plain water is the safest and easiest option. It's non-irritating, won't damage the toy, and cleans out easily after use.
