I love natural lubricants. For the most part, they seem to treat my vagina a lot nicer than some of those all-too-common pharmacy brands. You may remember my love affair with the WET Naturals products, for instance, including Silky Supreme (silicone-based), Sensual Strawberry (flavored), and Beautifully Bare (water-based).
On most days, you won’t find a discerning lube user shouting from the rooftops about the magnificence of this very well-known brand of personal lubricants. But, could AstroGlide’s brand spanking new Diamond Silicone Gel formula be the gleaming diamond among their usual, “Dang, this is so sticky and runny,” rough?
When I first opened the box for Je T’aime All Natural lubricant, I was surprised by how fancy the bottle was. “Wow, Spicy Gear Girl, you’ve really hit the big time lube reviews!” I said to myself.
The first thing I noticed about WET Naturals Beautifully Bare was how cool it felt to the touch. When I looked on the back at the ingredients on the back of the 3.3oz flip-top bottle, it came as no surprise to me that aloe is one of the first ingredients listed.
Let me just start off by saying this: I would dribble this lube over strawberry shortcake. Or ice cream. Mmmm. Ice cream.
Seriously. Maybe this is just coming from a strawberry lover, but WET Naturals Sensual Strawberry tastes like heaven. You know I love WET’s other flavored lubes (most particularly their Fun Flavors) and you know I love the other two products in their Naturals Line (Beautifully Bare and Silky Supreme).
You know I love Pjur, but I’m not always a fan of water-based lubes. However, Pjur’s Aqua For Women still blew me out of the water.
Normally, I loudly and proudly tout the wonders of silicone-based lube and of Pjur brand products, in particular. But, I’m willing to admit when something isn’t working as it should. After trying Pjur BodyGlide Woman all I could say was, “How can a lube be so dry?”
In a perfect world, all lubes would be glycerin and paraben-free. But that’s simply not an option. These potentially dangerous ingredients give lubes certain qualities that we really love. So, when a lube comes along that takes away these problematic ingredients, we have to ask ourselves two questions: “Is it just as good?” and, “Is it just as safe?”
The Doc Johnson brand is responsible for such high quality awesomeness as the hands-free sex toy the i-Ride and the TitanMen Stretch-to-Fit erection ring, so I expected quite a bit from their silicone-based personal lubricant, the i-Lube. Luckily, I was not disappointed in the slightest. Disappointing lube is the worst.
I reviewed the Swiss Navy 2-in-1 His and Hers a few weeks ago and was a little disappointed in the fact that both of its gels felt very much the same. So this week, I am excited to compare the Mild and the Wild of Swiss Navy’s 2-in-1 Just For Her.
