Sex in the Shower silicone lubricant - lubricant discontinued by Sportsheets - review by Gelisol

Although this product is specially formulated for sex in the shower, it is great for use in and out of water. Since it is silicone based it is safe for use with condoms, but should not be used with silicone toys without a condom. This product is really great for almost everyone because it is hypoallergenic. It has a very gentle formula so even those who have sensitive skin shouldn't have a problem. It also comes in a bottle that has an easily removed wrapper so it can be made very discrete which is great for roommate living situations and travel. You could even throw it in your purse for those quickies in unexpected places where foreplay time is limited and people would just think it's hand lotion.

The texture of this lubricant is lovely. A little bit goes a long and it easily absorbs into the skin so there is no sticky or greasy residue. It makes the skin feel velvety smooth and because it has aloe vera and vitamin E it leaves skin very soft. It comes in a pump bottle which dispenses easily, although, if you get any on the bottle it makes it difficult to use. The consistency is pretty thin but effective and doesn't create too much of a barrier or decrease sensation. It is a bit runny, just slightly thicker then water, but you definitely do not need to use very much and it stays in place very well.

One aspect that I love about this lubricant, and was specifically looking for, is that it doesn't have any aroma or taste.

I love this product. I'm not actually sure how long lasting it is, I have no problem in the natural lubrication production department but my partner is pretty large, and I am rather small so I was looking for something to initially get things started so that I wouldn't get sore, especially during shower sex. I also wanted something that wouldn't be too slippery and would feel as natural as possible with no residue, no smell, and no aroma and that wouldn't decrease sensation too much. This product fulfilled all of those desires. Since it is silicone based you do need soap and water to really get it off, but since it absorbs into the skin and actually makes the skin feel soft without leaving a sticky or filmy residue you don't feel the need to wash it off right away.

The packaging that it arrives in is not particularly discreet but it is very informative. It lists ingredients as well as special features of the product. Once you open the outer package the label on the bottle has a perforated strip all the way down the side so you can take the entire thing off and are left with a plain white bottle which is very discreet for storage and also great for travel.

I have used this product more in the bedroom then in the shower. It works great in the shower, but the size of my boyfriends shower is not so great. I have only had great experiences using this product. It goes on thin enough to still feel natural and leaves virtually no mess. I had been experiencing some soreness after sex due to not enough wetness initially and this lubricant completely took care of the problem without creating any new ones. I haven't noticed it staining my sheets either. A note to the ingredients- This is a silicone based product and doesn't have an absurd list of other ingredients. My boyfriend is a toxicology student and was concerned about ingredients because he has seen carcinogenic chemicals in other lubricants, he didn't find anything he was opposed to, and I personally loved the addition of aloe vera and vitamin E. Ingredients include: Silicone base* Cyclopentasilozane, Dimethicone, Dimethiconol, Tocopheryl Acetate (which is vitamin E), Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract
