Lube, lube...and more lube?

I really thought this was a fantastic lubricant at first, but it grew sticky and tacky so fast that I had to reapply more times than I would have liked to.

We were looking for a new, basic water-based lube to use with and without toys, and decided to give this one a try. At first glance, it seemed like a great product—it is odorless, slippery, and silky. It is supposed to be tasteless, and isn't QUITE that, but the faintly sweet taste was actually very nice. Upon first application, I thought I had found my new favorite lube—it felt almost like silicone lube in that is was very slick. It also felt almost like natural wetness, which felt great.

I would guess the taste comes from the glycerin in the lubricant. I know that some women have issues with the glycerin content in some lubricants causing yeast infections, so if you are prone to yeast infections, you can try to avoid that by washing yourself carefully after each use. Yeast infections run in my family, so I'm always very careful and either take a shower if I have time, or wash up with a damp cloth.

I first used this during solo play on myself, without a toy. At first, it seemed to be working really well, but in my first session using it I found that it grew tacky and sticky quickly and I had to reapply three or four times even in the short twenty or so minutes I was using it. It was frustrating to have to keep reapplying and interrupting what I was doing.

I didn't want to just give up on the lubricant after one use, so I tried using it with a toy. This water-based lubricant is safe to use with all toys, including silicone toys (unlike silicone lube), which has always been a draw to me about using water-based lube. Using it with a toy went better than the first time, but I still found that I had to reapply in the middle.

Overall, this Wet Original Lubricant seemed fantastic at first, but the sticky factor and having to stop what I was doing over and over to reapply sort of killed the mood for me. I think I will continue the search for a better water-based lubricant!
Follow-up commentary
I tried this lubricant several more times before finally just giving up on it. It disappears too quickly and interrupts our rhythm, and I would rather just use another water-based lubricant and save myself the trouble!

    good review, thanks for sharing. We have never had good luck with wet lube. sorry it did not work well for you.

    I only had one wet lube I liked years ago and it sucks that this one doesn't make the cut. I can't stand a quick drying tacky lube. It's just counter productive.

    I know! It was really disappointing that it just dried up so quickly. My favorite lubes are ID Millenium (for silicone) and Fun Factory Toyfluid (for water-based.)

    I have always disliked Wet lubricants. They all seem to be this way and the flavored ones are the worst. Not to mention I always get urinary tract infections after using them!
