Condoms
Condoms are a form of protection used during sexual intercourse, and their use helps to reduce the chances of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections. The condom is considered a barrier method, as it is made from a thin layer of latex or a similar material that covers the penis. Condoms are key when it comes to sexual safety today and are designed to be durable, water-resistant, and comfortable to use. You will find different types of condoms, some with a more modern design, others are ultra-thin yet strong, so the experience still feels natural. As they are highly effective, we definitely recommend using condoms during sexual intercourse or when sharing sex toys.

Condoms: complete guide to brands, types, and sizes
Condoms are the only contraceptive method that also protects against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). At Loviux, you will find nearly 1,000 references from leading brands — Durex, Control, Pasante, SKYN, Sagami, Sico, EXS — organized by type and need.
Types of condoms and who they are for
Natural/standard: latex, lubricated, no additives. The base. Sensitive/extrafine: reduced thickness (0.04-0.06mm) for maximum sensation without losing safety. Delay: with internal benzocaine, prolongs duration. Textured: ribbed, dotted, or combined, enhance partner stimulation. Flavored: for protected oral sex without the latex taste. Latex-free: polyurethane or polyisoprene, for those with allergies. XXL: nominal width 57-69mm for those who need more space.
The size of the condom is measured by nominal width (half the circumference when laid flat). Standard: 52-54mm. Fitted: 47-49mm. Large: 57-60mm. XXL: 64-69mm.
Frequently asked questions about condoms
How do I know my condom size?
Measure the circumference of the erect penis (at the widest part) with a flexible measuring tape. Divide by 2 = your ideal nominal width. If you measure 11 cm in circumference, you need a condom with a nominal width of 55mm. A correctly sized condom does not constrict, does not slip off, and is barely noticeable.
Are ultrathin condoms less safe?
No. They undergo exactly the same certification tests (bursting, tensile strength, permeability) as standard thickness condoms. The difference is in the sensation — a Sagami Original 002 (0.02mm) feels radically different from a standard 0.07mm condom — but the protection is equivalent.
Can I use lubricant with condoms?
Yes, and it is recommended (reduces the risk of breakage due to friction). With latex condoms: only water-based or silicone-based lubricant. NEVER oil-based (degrades latex). With polyurethane condoms (latex-free): any type of lubricant is compatible, including oil-based ones.
