Durex play warming by Durex

Normally Durex is a fantastic and reliable brand, coming out with fairly decent products. As far as lubricants go however they've failed me completely.

Earlier in the year my partner and I tried the cooling sensation one, which had a life span of about 3 minutes before it was washed off completely and thrown out. I believe in second chances, so when we decided to trying a warming lubricant we had previously heard good things about the Durex brand, so we decided to try it.

I found the texture to be quite fluid and runny. One pump and it seemed to coat everything. When I used it with my partner it coated him, when I tried it solo on my vibrator it coated that too. The problem was that once I had finished applying it, i just didn't go away. It was sticky to the touch, especially once dried a little bit. It made quite a mess of things.

It seemed to last fairly decently as a lubricant. During intercourse it was pleasant and lasted as long as we did without need to be reapplied constantly. However at the end of intercourse it felt like someone has spilled cola over my skin, it was so awfully sticky. As far as going solo and using it as a lubricant, it worked well with some of my steel toys, but with the jelly toys it tended to dry out more quickly, needing frequent reapplication, making an even stickier mess.

The advertised affect of this product was for it to be a warming lubricant. It was something that I barely notice at all. I've tried other warming lubricants since this product, most of which are activated by either friction or by blowing on it, this product seems to do neither. Foreplay, intercourse this product was used throughout the process but not once gave any real noticeable wave of heat to add to the experience. I mean no one wants to be scalded during an intimate situation, but Durex Play did nothing as far as increasing the temperature of MY intimate experiences.

On top of it, it really wasn't a pleasant after reaction, it induced quite an uncomfortable allergic reaction after the fact. So this product too was trashed. It was actually quite a disappointment and shook my faith in the Durex brand a little. If you ARE looking for a warming lubricant.. if your looking for a lubricant period I suggest you look elsewhere, I couldn't in good faith recommend this product.
