You have questions, we have answers.

Lorals create a layer between your partner’s mouth and nose and your vulva and anus during oral sex and rimming, and the opaque latex material provides additional stimulation to the clitoris and labia without skin-to-skin contact. The super stretchy, silky panties sculpt to your body’s curves, allowing your partner’s mouth and tongue to move fully. Lorals stay in place during oral sex and are designed to cover your vulva and anus the entire time.

Our Protection line of products is FDA-cleared for STI protection, and all Protection batches are tested to ensure they meet the FDA’s standards for STI protection during oral-vaginal and oral-anal sex. Our Pleasure product line still undergoes extremely diligent testing, but not to the same standard required by the FDA for our Protection product line. Our Pleasure product line should therefore not be used for STI protection.

Lorals for Protection do, yes! Lorals for Protection are medical devices and have been cleared by the U.S. FDA for use as a barrier when engaging in oral/vaginal sex and oral/anal sex to help reduce the transmission of bodily fluids, harmful pathogens, and sexually transmitted infections. 

Please note, our other products are not medical devices and have not been cleared by the U.S. FDA for the mitigation, treatment, or prevention of any disease. They are purely novelty products and should not be used as a barrier to protect against STIs and STDs. 

Yes, Lorals for Protection can! Lorals for Protection are dental dams, reinvented. They’re silky safe sex lingerie that you’ll love to wear. Lorals for Protection are medical devices cleared by the U.S. FDA to be used as a barrier when engaging in oral/vaginal sex and oral/anal sex to help reduce the transmission of bodily fluids, harmful pathogens, and sexually transmitted infections.

We know that dental dams aren’t super fun to use: they have to be held in place, they can move around on the body causing bacteria to transmit from the anus to the vagina, and they can make a partner gag or lose their breath. We designed Lorals for Protection to be sexier, more user-friendly, and far more sensational. 

Please note, our other products are not medical devices and have not been cleared by the U.S. FDA for the mitigation, treatment, or prevention of any disease. They are purely novelty products and should not be used as a barrier to protect against STIs and STDs. 

Yes, you can for Lorals for Protection!

Lorals for Protection, which are designed to safeguard against STIs and bacteria transfer during oral sex, are considered qualified medical expenses. This means you can use your Flexible Spending Account (FSA), Health Savings Account (HSA), or certain Health Reimbursement Arrangements (HRA) to buy them.

Please note that Lorals for Pleasure are not currently FSA/HSA eligible. 

To purchase using your FSA or HSA, simply add your favorite Lorals for Protection styles to your cart. While you can add other items, only the Lorals for Protection items are eligible for reimbursement according to the Special Interest Group for IIAS Standards (SIGIS) Eligible Product List (October 2023).

After purchasing, you can request an itemized receipt from us by emailing with your order number. This receipt can be submitted to your plan administrator for reimbursement. If you prefer to use your FSA/HSA debit card directly, please contact us at hello@mylorals.com for assistance.

They smell like vanilla! The scent comes from food-grade, water-based vanilla flavor. It's also used in baking and has a slight taste of vanilla. And thanks to our patented manufacturing process, Lorals don't have a rubber smell like some other latex products.

Lorals are not reusable and should be disposed of after a single use. Our silky latex was developed to be ultra-thin and stretchy so you can feel everything through them. Just like a condom or glove, each pair of Lorals should only be used once, then tossed.

Lorals for Protection should only be worn during oral sex. Wearing them for longer periods of time could damage the material and make them ineffective for use as STI protection. 

Lorals for Pleasure, however, can be worn for longer periods of time under loose or light clothing (or on their own!), to add to the anticipation or teasing. Just keep in mind that they are made of latex, so they are not breathable like regular underwear. That said, a lot of people love to wear latex fashion, knowing that it’s not breathable. It just depends on your comfort.

Since Lorals are made of latex instead of fabric, they might fit differently than your normal undies. On people in larger bodies, both styles may show a bit more cheek, and the waistbands may stretch to be more like a string bikini or tanga style panty.

There are so many amazing creators who have used Lorals in their spicy content, so we have compiled a list on our Reddit account u/mylorals here. We post new videos and pictures regularly, so make sure to check back! And if you make content using Lorals, or you find some we haven't listed here, please comment on our posts and let us know!

Yes — one of our favorite qualities of Lorals is their hyper-stretchy, curve-hugging material. Lorals can be adjusted to fit any way you’d like and were designed with many body types in mind.

Lorals will currently fit people with waist and hip sizes 26"-51", which corresponds to US women's sizes 0 to 20. We plan to expand to additional size options in the future!

We get this question a lot! Here are some ideas:

For the oral-receiver:

Mention that you read about a new product for oral sex, and send your partner an article (like this one from Fast Company). You can let them know that Lorals are now available, and you're thinking about trying them. Ask your partner if they're down to try them with you! Or, Lorals come packaged like a present so you can gift them to a partner! Make a special night even better with an intimate gift that kicks off foreplay or an open conversation about your sexual desires.

For the oral-giver:

Have a conversation with your partner and ask them if they’re interested in receiving more oral. If they are, both of you can talk about ways that it could happen more often. If Lorals feel like they could be a good solution, you can show your partner our website homepage, our customer reviews, or a press article (like this one from Cosmopolitan or this one from Elite Daily). If both of you are interested, give them a go!

Unfortunately, no. Lorals contain natural rubber latex which may cause allergic reactions in some individuals. If you are unsure of whether you are allergic to latex, please contact your doctor or allergist. As with any personal care product, if you notice any discomfort you should temporarily discontinue use.

Yes! Lots of men and people with penises use Lorals for exploring activities that don't involve an erection, like rimming, teasing, and more! They are not designed for fellatio, but we do want to make a version for this in the future! Keep in mind that Lorals currently fit waist and hip sizes 26-51". Our Bikini style allows for a little more stretch, and our Shorties are great if you’re experiencing gender dysphoria or would prefer to stay more covered up.

It’s based on your personal preference, and some people love using lubricant with their Lorals! After putting on your Lorals and before receiving oral sex, you may wish to place water- or silicone-based lubricant directly on your vulva area or your anus. Some folks also enjoy the feeling of lubricant on their pubic hair as they're wearing Lorals. Givers can add lube to the outside of Lorals to move their lips and tongue super rapidly! Our favorite lube pairing with Lorals is Überlube.

Unfold Lorals, taking care to avoid damage to Lorals by fingernails, jewelry, etc. 

Separate and then pull apart the thin front and back layers of Lorals. If they’re difficult to separate, moisten your fingers with a bit of water. 

Place your hands flat inside the sides of the waistband and stretch the waistband slightly wider than your body, then gently step into each leg of the panties. 

Continue to stretch the waistband to the sides as you pull Lorals up. If the material rolls a bit, gently slip your fingers between the latex and your skin to readjust. 

Position Lorals so that your genital area (including your vulva, clitoris, and anus) is fully covered and the waistband sits comfortably around your waist or hips, whatever is comfortable for you. 

For maximum sensation (and maximum access for your partner), pull your butt cheeks and labia apart, and position some of the material between the folds of your vulva and your butt cheeks — in other words, give yourself a little wedgie. Then enjoy!

“Lorals” is a blend of the words in our tagline: Love ORAL alwayS. The goal of our company is to promote love and passion, particularly with regards to oral sex, and to empower women and people with vulvas to be able to request and to say yes to oral sex, always. We also love that the name almost rhymes with the act of oral – hopefully the name Lorals will be on the tip of your tongue, whenever you think of oral sex.

It depends on the product. Lorals for Protection are medical devices that have been cleared by the U.S. FDA for STI protection, but have not been cleared by other countries' governments. So, Lorals for Protection are only available in the United States. We're hoping to expand to additional countries soon!

Our other products are available almost everywhere in the world! Please contact us if you have trouble inputting your country’s address during the checkout process.

Due to factors such as distance, weight, and customs offices, standard international shipping can sometimes take up to 30 days for delivery.

International shipping costs do not include import duties or taxes. Each country or province is different, and you are responsible for paying these fees directly to your local government. Prior to delivery, your carrier may reach out to you to collect these fees, and you must pay the fees in order to receive your items. If you do not pay the fees, the carrier may return the items to us, in which case we will refund the cost of your items (but not your shipping charges). Sometimes, however, the carrier does not return the items to us, in which case we will not be able to refund the cost of your items or the shipping charges. 

Email us at hello@mylorals.com ASAP. We're a very small team, and we will do our best to address the issue as quickly as possible. Please note that we cannot offer refunds or change quantity/style once your order is processed by our fulfillment center.

Lorals products are shipped with low waste, in a discreet padded envelope or a small box. The label will read "Shipbob," the name of our fulfillment center. The name "Lorals" will not appear on the packaging.

Orders normally take 1 business day to process before shipping. Sale events, holidays, unexpected order surges, and COVID-19-related issues may delay processing by 1-2 additional business days.

Shipping estimates begin once your order has shipped. When your order has shipped, you'll receive a shipment confirmation email that includes your carrier and tracking information. Depending on your shipping method selected and your location, shipping time will vary anywhere from 1-14+ business days. Shipping estimates are not guaranteed. Please note that all major carriers are experiencing delays due to COVID-19.

If you have questions about where your package is, please check the tracking information in your shipment confirmation email. Once we hand off the package to the carrier, we only have access to the same information you do, via the tracking number and tracking link provided.

After the carrier has dropped off the package with you, you will automatically receive a delivery confirmation email. If you are unable to locate your package, please contact the carrier directly for more information. If the carrier says that the package has been delivered and you cannot locate it, this is a carrier issue that we cannot help with; we recommend that you contact the carrier or your local police department to file a claim.

If the tracking information indicates that your package is still in transit, and the tracking information has not changed for 15 days (for a US order) or 20 days (for an international order), please contact us to tell us you have not received your package. We are able to ship you a replacement if you contact us within 30 days (for a US order) or 35 days (for an international order) after the last tracking update; after this amount of time we are unable to ship a replacement.

Due to the hygienic nature of our products as well as other factors, we do not accept returns or exchanges or provide refunds. Gift cards are not returnable.

Pricing is subject to change at any time, and we aren’t able to offer price adjustments on items that have been purchased from Lorals.

We understand that it’s frustrating when you wanted your order to arrive by a particular date (and might have paid for express shipping), but it did not arrive by that date.

Our ship time estimates are provided by the carriers and are as accurate as possible, but they are not guaranteed. All carriers are experiencing pandemic and holiday delays and no longer guarantee ship times. Lorals does not have control over carrier delays, and we cannot refund your order or your shipping costs if your order did not arrive within the expected timeframe. 

We hope that carriers will soon change their policies and refund shipping costs when shipments are delayed. At that point, we will provide shipping costs refunds to customers if their orders arrive later than expected.

Thank you for understanding that this is a worldwide problem right now and our hands are unfortunately tied.

“Then why do you offer express shipping?”

We know that the standard shipping methods can take a very long time, particularly with pandemic-related delays. We want to provide you with the opportunity to receive your package earlier than you would via the standard method. In almost all cases, express shipping is faster than standard shipping, and overnight shipping is faster than express shipping. Please rest assured that even if your order arrives after you thought it would, it probably arrived earlier than it would have if you picked a longer shipping method.

Lorals are available at many online stores and retail locations around the world. Please check out our Store Locator to find Lorals near you. If you’re interested in becoming a Lorals retailer, please email us at sales@mylorals.com.
