Orgasm Delay Sprays, Gels & Creams

Orgasm Delay Sprays, Gels and Creams – Help Pace Intimate Moments

Orgasm delay sprays, gels and creams are applied to the penis before sex to reduce sensitivity, which some men find helps them pace themselves and feel more in control. They suit men who finish sooner than they would like, and couples who simply want intimate moments to last a little longer. Our range includes desensitising sprays, cooling gels with menthol or mint, clove-based formulas, delay creams, single-use wipes, concentrated serums and 2-in-1 delay lubricants. Results vary from person to person. Check the ingredients, application directions and condom guidance on each listing before you choose.

How Delay Products Work

Most delay products work by making the skin of the penis, especially the head, temporarily less sensitive. The way they do this depends on the formula, so it is worth knowing the main approaches before you buy.

Desensitising and Mild Anaesthetic Formulas

Some sprays, gels and wipes contain a mild local anaesthetic that gently numbs the skin for a short time. Wikipedia's article on premature ejaculation describes topical anaesthetic delay sprays, such as those using lidocaine or benzocaine, that work by numbing the area. Check each listing for the active ingredient and its directions.

Cooling and Plant-Based Formulas

Other products use cooling ingredients such as menthol, mint or eucalyptus, or plant extracts such as clove, ginger or oak bark. Makers describe these as reducing sensation or giving a cooling effect rather than numbing. A few products, such as Tauro Extra Power, are described as anaesthetic-free.

Who They Suit

Orgasm delay sprays and gels are popular with men who feel very sensitive during sex, men who want more control during penetration and couples who want to slow things down together. If finishing too early is a regular worry for you, it can help to speak to a GP or pharmacist as well, as they can talk through other options.

Types of Orgasm Delay Products

Orgasm Delay Sprays

Sprays are the most common format in this collection, from brands such as Pjur, Cobeco, Intimateline, Eros-Art and RUF. They are quick to apply in measured doses and are usually sprayed onto the head and shaft a few minutes before sex. Follow the number of sprays and waiting time stated on each listing.

Delay Gels

Gels are massaged into the skin and let you see exactly where you have applied the product. You will find cooling gels with menthol or mint, clove-based gels and concentrated formulas, as well as small single-dose pods for discreet use.

Delay Creams

Creams from brands such as RUF and HOT are rubbed in until absorbed. Some add a cooling effect, while others include plant extracts such as ginseng or ginkgo.

Delay Wipes

Single-use wipes from Cobeco and Bullpower are individually wrapped, which makes them easy to carry and apply without mess.

Serums and 2-in-1 Delay Lubricants

Concentrated serums, such as Pjur Superhero, are applied in a few drops. 2-in-1 products, such as Eros Care Delay, combine a delay effect with water-based lubricant, so you can add glide at the same time.

Couples Kits

A few kits pair a prolonging product with intensifying gels or sprays for a partner, making them a shared purchase rather than something for one person only.

How to Choose a Delay Spray, Gel or Cream

• Type of effect: Decide whether you prefer a desensitising formula or a cooling, plant-based one, and check the active ingredients on each listing.
• Format: Choose a spray for quick, measured application, a gel or cream for targeted use, or wipes for convenience.
• Condom use: Check whether the product is stated to be compatible with latex condoms, and whether it should be absorbed or washed off before you put one on.
• Your partner's comfort: Look at the directions on preventing transfer to your partner, especially with numbing products.
• Sensitive skin: If you react easily, choose a simpler formula and patch test before intimate use.
• Size: Small bottles, pods and wipes let you try a product before buying more.

Using Orgasm Delay Sprays Safely

Applying the Product

• Follow the directions: Use only the amount stated and wait the time given on the listing before sex.
• Start with less: Too much can reduce sensation more than you want or make it harder to stay aroused. You can adjust next time.
• Patch test first: Try a small amount on the inside of your wrist or arm before intimate use.
• Avoid broken skin: Do not apply to sore, broken or irritated skin, and keep the product away from your eyes and mouth.
• Know your allergies: If you have reacted to local anaesthetics or any listed ingredient before, do not use that product.

Protecting Your Partner

• Prevent transfer: Numbing ingredients can transfer to a partner and reduce their sensation. Follow the listing's advice on waiting, wiping off or washing before sex, or use a condom.
• No numbing for anal sex: Never use delay or numbing products to make anal sex less painful. Pain is a signal to slow down or stop.
• Talk about it: Let your partner know you are using a delay product, and stop if either of you feels any irritation.

Condoms and Lubricants

• Check compatibility: Follow the condom guidance on each listing. Do not use oil-based products with latex condoms, and if you are unsure, a water-based lubricant is usually the safest choice.

Storage and Care

• Store sensibly: Keep products at room temperature, away from heat and sunlight, with caps closed.
• Keep sprays safe: Do not puncture or overheat spray bottles, and keep them away from flames.
• Check the date: Follow the use-by date or period-after-opening symbol, and replace products once they have passed.
• Wash your hands: Wash your hands after applying, especially with numbing formulas.
• Keep out of reach: Store delay products away from children and pets.
