Aren't Lube and Moisturiser the same?

You might be surprised to find out how different they are.

Moisturisers are used regularly.

This is similar to how a facial moisturiser works for skin.

Moisturisers are helpful for soothing ongoing dryness and discomfort, even when not sexually active.

Lubricants on the other hand-

are used just before or during sexual activity to reduce friction and make intercourse more comfortable.

They provide temporary relief.
