Grind, baby grind
A pleasure to play with, easy to get just the right amount with the pump nozzle, and safe for use with any toys.Published: March 3, 2011
Pros:
Very similar in feel to a silicone lube, no taste, sensually slick
Cons:
Mildly obnoxious to close the pump nozzle
And not the leveling kind. Maximus is my favorite lube that I've had the pleasure of playing with. So far, anyway. It comes in a simple clear plastic bottle, black labeling, and with a pump nozzle at the top for easy use while in the middle of naughty deeds. It's not a discreet container at all, boldly stating "A water-based sensual lubricant" with pretty detail of a Greek styled vase on the side. As I don't have to worry about discretion, my bottle of Maximus has a place of pride on a bedside table.
When I got this lube, I was astonished upon first use when I squirted a dollop onto my hand. It felt exactly like a silicone based lubricant! Extremely slippery and silky smooth. The texture is that of a thick gel until smoothed out on yourself, a toy, or your partner. It pretty much melts into a velvety soft texture at that point. It does have a very mild, slightly artificial, somewhat clean scent, and it lacks any sort of taste. I have yet to notice any type of staining on my crimson sheets or on my black bed spread from it. Maximus doesn't seem to make any kind of an unpleasant mess at all.
I've been very pleased with every type of use I've put it to. It is very versatile, suiting vaginal, anal, and masturbatory needs, this lube fits every desire I have wanted. Maximus doesn't get sticky, proving comfortable and pleasant with every application. It doesn't seem to require more lube being added periodically either. Maximus has exceeded my expectations when applied to a butt plug, dildo, or my own skin. I am also pleased with the idea of a bio-static lube and suggest it for anyone who does any vaginal-to-anal or oral-to-vaginal play, etcetera.

Follow-up commentary

Still my go to lube. It plays nicely with every single one of my toys and it doesn't need much reapplication (if any). A little goes a long way, this bottle will last quite a while.

I know most people absolutely love this lube, but when I try to use it, it feels like my genitals are on fire! Could it be due to the parabens? Any thoughts, or any recommendations for another thicker water-based lubricant?
-
I'm not sure if it's kosher to mention a competitor's product here, but BabeLube is a wonderful water-based lube that's comparable in thickness to Maximus.
-
Maximus is my go-to lube. I have very sensitive skin and have never had a problem with it.

Is Maximus as Great as The Reviews Say?
-
Two negative things I've seen written are that it has a bitter aftertaste and it does peel off, dry, and need to be washed off.
Positives and opposites I've heard are that it has a natural tasteless feel similar to saliva, and it is a thicker lubricant. Also the pump looks like a great feature that makes this product less messy.
I would like to try it for myself, and wonder if it is really the go-to lube for me, and for others like me. -
This is my favorite water-based lube, hands down and without a doubt. It's pretty thick (ideal for backdoor fun). I've fallen asleep with it on my hands and don't wake up with fuzzy or sticky palms (until they get wet, then it reactivates).

It is slightly bitter but not bothersome. It is thicker and also works very well for anal. I never feel the need to wash it off unless I overdue in the heat of passion.

Does Maximus come in any other size bottles? I feel like 8 oz. would be a lot for me to use before it goes bad. Also, it seems like a big bottle to store somewhere discrete.

It really isn't very big - I have mine it a bedside drawer. Maximus is so thick that you don't have to worry about it leaking unless you really press on the bottle. If my mind isn't playing tricks on me, the bottle is about 2-3/4" in diameter and 4-1/2 to 5 inches tall (including pump), and I think it's closer to 4.5
I think mine's good to 2013 or something (I'm not at home now, but I can check later), so I wouldn't worry about it going bad -

For some reason 8 oz seems a lot bigger to me. lol
