System JO H2O flavored lubricant by System JO - review by Carrie Ann

System Jo H20 Flavored lube is obviously made to taste good. Yummy taste can often make oral sex a lot more fun. A bit of extra lubrication can make oral sex a lot more fun, too. A lube that not only tastes good and adds a bit of extra slickness to oral sex but also performs well for vaginal sex? Total win.

Jo Flavored lube does all of that and has no artificial sweeteners, which means no "diet" after taste. It does, however, have both glycerin and parabens so if you're sensitive to either of those, this probably isn't the lube for you. If you're not? System Jo H20 flavored lube is the way to go; great for oral and it holds up as well as a very good non-flavored water based lube for vaginal penetration, masturbation and hand jobs.

Jo Flavored lubes are thin but not overly runny. It feels slick and slippery but not gel like and goopy. It pours very nicely from the flip top container, dispensing about a dime sized amount without having to squeeze the bottle. (Which is perfect, really, especially for oral sex. You don't want to have globs and globs of this stuff, just enough to slicken things up and add a bit of nummyness.)

I tested how well it stays put on the back of my hand and it performed really well for a thinnish lube. It does run a bit with gravity but slowly, giving you plenty of time to spread it out without it all running down and dripping on the bed. It stays quite slick during use, never getting flaky or sticky unless it dries completely.

I am exceptionally impressed with the taste of this product. I can't say that it tastes like a fresh raspberry but it definitely has a berry candy taste and absolutely no after taste at all. It's sweet but not too sweet, well flavored without being obnoxious about it.

Even though this is pretty obviously designed for oral sex I actually like it best for masturbation just because of the scent. It's a light, sweet berry smell and, I may be weird, but I like adding a bit of scent to my sensual alone time. It makes me feel good.

This lube is not overly scented or something you're going to notice the second you open the bottle. It has a light, fresh, fruity smell that shouldn't bother even those with hyper sensitive noses.

This lube did get a bit sticky after use but not enough to leave me feeling like I needed an immediate shower. A quick wipe with a washcloth and I was fine when we used it for vaginal sex as well as when it was used for masturbation. A bit of a more thorough cleaning was needed after a blow job with it but mostly I just needed to also wipe my face. It also felt a bit more sticky to him due to his pubic hair but, again, nothing that a soapy cloth couldn't take care of quickly.

Overall, the slight stickiness was definitely worth it as it performs well in every capacity we used it in. In fact, it performs better than most of the water based lubes I've tried, holding up for a good long time and easily reactivated with water -- which makes it really, really excellent for oral sex since saliva reactivates the lube.

The taste also lingered for a noticeably long time, though I did find myself reapplying occasionally during really long blow jobs.

One of the best things about this lube, for me, is the easy open top. The bottle is plastic with a flip top that is "flipped" by pressing the designated area. (On my raspberry lube, it's a red button. I'd imagine the color co-ordinates with the color of the bottle/flavor of the lube. Ie. Yellow for lemon, etc) You simply press the button and the top flips itself open. It also snaps closed easily, even one handed, after you've dispensed some lube.

This would likely not travel well, however, as bumping against other toiletries or toys could potentially press that button and flip the top and have your stuff coated with raspberry slickness when you don't want it to be.
