Many beginners buying this type of product for the first time make the most common mistake of "wanting it all"—they assume that the pricier or more impressive-sounding option is always the best. As a result, they either end up with a terrible experience due to overly harsh ingredients, or the product simply doesn't work, wasting money and crushing their confidence. Today, I'll speak from the perspective of a "seasoned driver" who has stepped on plenty of landmines, and share how to choose and use topical endurance sprays.

Currently, mainstream topical endurance sprays on the market primarily work by physical numbing or herbal soothing to reduce sensitivity. When shopping, don't fall for nonsense like "spray and get hard instantly" or "delay for an hour." Legitimate products typically extend your time by about 15 to 30 minutes, which is already a pretty ideal outcome.

Let me start with the Wannai Zhanhun Edition I have on hand. It's a beginner-friendly option with a convenient spray design that won't make a mess like smear-on formulas tend to. For first-time users, its formula is relatively gentle and unlikely to cause severe burning sensations. Remember to spray a little on the inside of your forearm before use to check for any allergic reactions—safety always comes first.

If your budget is a bit more flexible and you want to try an imported option, EROS Yilusi is also a frequently mentioned choice. Imported products like this usually have a more refined skin feel and don't leave that cheap, greasy sensation. However, no matter which one you buy, make sure to purchase from legitimate channels. You can refer to my earlier 2h2d review, where I mentioned that effectiveness often depends not just on the product itself, but also on how well you control the dosage.

There are also classic options like German Black Diamond, which focuses on no numbness and no side effects. When buying as a beginner, be sure to carefully check the ingredient list on the packaging. If it contains an excessively high concentration of benzocaine, the numbing sensation will be very pronounced, and it might even cause you to "lose steam" entirely—that feeling can really ruin your mood. That's also why I don't recommend beginners jump straight into products claiming "super-long delay," because in many cases, "strong" means "harsh."

As for usage, the biggest mistake beginners make is "spraying and starting right away." In reality, most sprays need to be applied 15-30 minutes in advance to allow the ingredients to absorb into the skin and take effect. If you start immediately after spraying, not only will the effect fail to kick in, but residual product might also cause discomfort for your partner. I detailed this in my Jiuhuang experience article—always give your body time to absorb the product, which is key to improving the experience.

Finally, here are a few tips to avoid pitfalls:
1. Price expectations: Legitimate topical endurance sprays typically cost between 100-300 yuan. Avoid anything under 50 yuan—it's likely cheap chemical products with unknown ingredients.
2. Packaging verification: Legitimate products will always have complete manufacturer information, approval numbers, and anti-counterfeit codes on the packaging. If it's just a white label with a name slapped on, toss it immediately.
3. Start small: Begin with the smallest dose. If one spray doesn't work, increase it slightly next time. Never go overboard with multiple sprays at once—that feeling will genuinely make you question your life choices.
4. Listen to your body: If you have sensitive skin or any wounds, don't use it at all. Any topical product should be washed off immediately if redness, swelling, or stinging occurs.

In short, choosing an endurance spray isn't about chasing some so-called "miracle effect"—it's about making the experience more relaxed for both parties. I hope these insights help you save a lot of money on trial and error.
