If you are interested in obtaining a faster and smoother cube you need to lubricate it only if you want to get a time under 10 second.
As you may know, being able to solve a 3x3x3 cube is very cool, but always it gets hard to move like the Rubik's brand cube. A great solution is to lubricate it with silicon oil and if you do that you will get a very smooth cube and you'll have more control of it.
Another important thing that you need to know is about speed, in few words, speed does not only depends on having fast fingers and brain power. You need to have a very good cube if you want to obtain times under 10 second even under 6 seconds like Feliks Zemdegs and Matts Valk (he has the world single record in 3x3x3).
Remember, you should buy a lube like Lubix or Maru even others. You can buy those lubes in Amazon.com, and in there you will see a variety of prices and brands, some of them are very cheap and others so expensive.
If you want my opinion I recommend you the Lubix, because it has more duration. However this lube is the most expensive , that is the only disadvantage that the Lubix has.
Check the links below from some lubes:

Now below, I will show you a video from a youtuber. He did a very good tutorial and I think is the best of the all tutorial that I watched.
Remember, when your finish the lubrication part, you must rotate your cube because the pieces needs to feel the lube.
Thanks and enjoy!
Great advice !
