My Lubie is here to smash the taboos and give condoms the makeover they deserve, from the design down to the ingredients, so you can buy and use them with pride.
The truth about condoms
Ever stopped to think about what’s actually in your condoms? Maybe you've even Googled it.
Turns out, finding the full ingredient list for most condoms is near impossible. This is because condoms are considered medical devices, so brands don’t have to disclose their ingredients.
But My Lubie is flipping the script: they believe that good products start with transparency, and they’re upfront about everything that goes into their condoms.
My Lubie condoms are produced in Malaysia by a manufacturer that’s part of the Regenerative Rubber Initiative (RRI).
This means the rubber is sustainably sourced, pesticide-free, cultivated with fair labour practices and no monoculture farming that depletes soil fertility. Plus, you won’t find any controversial ingredients in My Lubie condoms.
They use only natural, vegan latex, free from hormone disruptors, BHT, nitrosamines, or casein. Even the tiniest trace ingredients used in production are listed.
What’s inside My Lubie condoms?
+ Natural Rubber Latex & Sulfide: Sourced from responsibly farmed rubber trees in Malaysia, with sulfide added for strength and flexibility.
+ Zinc Oxide: Protects the latex from fungi and is safe in the quantities used.
+ ZDEC & ZDBC: Boost the rubber’s strength and prevent harmful nitrosamines.
+ Poly (Dicyclopentadiene-Co-P-Cresol): Keeps the rubber from discoloring or breaking.
+ Tamol, Oleic Acid, Potassium Hydroxide, Ceteareth-25: Ensure the latex mixes well and stays stable.
+ Cornstarch & Magnesium Oxide: Prevent the condoms from sticking together during production and help with unrolling.
+ Silicone: The condom’s lubricant is silicone-based, making it smooth to roll on and reducing the risk of tearing.
+ Magnesium Nitrate: Acts as a preservative by fighting off bacteria.
Ingredients to avoid in condoms
Since condoms are in direct contact with sensitive mucous membranes, it’s smart to avoid certain ingredients that could mess with your body’s natural balance:
+ Nitrosamine: A known carcinogen often found in conventional condoms.
+ Benzocaine: A numbing agent used to delay ejaculation but can cause allergic reactions.
+ Nonoxynol-9: A spermicide that can irritate the skin and may be harmful with frequent use.
+ Parabens: Hormone disruptors linked to certain cancers.
+ Glycerin: Though common, it can lead to yeast infections in those prone to them.
