i am 16 and have had anal sex multiple times receiving, and I have always used petroleum jelly. I would almost prefer it to lube in that it is thick and doesn't drip or wear off, but as far as safety goes, I honestly do not know.
I guess I took my chances.

It won't kill you. It can, however, damage latex condoms and anal sex without condoms has a high probability of transmitting STDs (if one partner is infected). Water based lubricant is preferred, along with latex condoms.

There is no need to go to a sex shop. KY, a very popular water-based lubricant, has many medical uses and is commonly available over-the-counter at pharmacies. You can buy it without arousing any sort of suspicion.
Condoms can also be purchased over-the-counter at pharmacies, though it would usually be obvious what you are going to use them for.
