Maximus at its best

Maximus, a little dab will do ya! This is a thick, slick and easy to dispense lube. It has a locking top and does not leak. It does not have a scent, but does leave a bitter aftertaste. Maximus works great for vaginal & anal sex use. It's also easy to clean off. Maximus is water-based which means that it is safe to use with all your toys and it's condom friendly. At an affordable price, this is now my go to lube!

Use

Maximus is a water-based lubricant made by Bodywise Limited. It is among the top 10 water based lubes for a reason. It's thick, non-greasy and long-lasting. This lube can be used vaginally, anally, with sex toys and masturbation. Anyone and everyone can use this lube. It is a super slick and long-lasting; also a body, toy and condom friendly lubricant.

Maximus is Bio-Static, meaning it will prevent the spreading of bacteria, fungi spores & yeast infections. The safety feature of this product is that it is ‘L-Arginine' and ‘Glycerin' free. The ingredients for this wonderful product are: Highly Purified Water, Propylene Glycol Cellulose Polymer, Di Sodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Methyl Paraben, Butyl Paraben, Ethyl Paraben, Propyl Paraben. So make sure you are not sensitive to any of its contents, for this could not be the best lube for you.

The best use I've had with this product is for anal sex, vaginal sex and masturbation with my sex toys; my partner even uses it with his masturbators. This is a over-all great sexual lubricant. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is oral.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

Maximus has a smooth, thick, gel-like, but not stringy or greasy texture. Ever heard of the saying "a little dab will do ya"? That's just the case here. I'm impressed with how far one pump of this lube will go. It's very easy to dispense with its pump-top. One pump of this lube will surely lubricate any of your sex toys, as well as your partner. I find myself even using a half of a pump and it being just enough. With that being said this will last awhile for you. It just rubs into your skin like a lotion would, it's like it just disappears. This lube also stays in place well, not too runny or anything.
    • Slick
    • Thick
    • Smooth

Taste / Aroma

Maximus lube has no scent to it with whatever I use it on; sex toys or my partner. It does however have a bitter aftertaste if it gets on your tongue.
    • Bad taste
    • No smell

Performance

I have yet to outlast this lube, meaning no replying needed! One pump of this stuff is more than enough for me. I have used Maximus anally as well as vaginally and it felt simply amazing. It always gets the job done. I can go for hours, with a toy or my partner, and have yet needed to reapply. Also when using this lube it doesn't dry up on you, leaving you behind with any residue.

Cleaning/washing up is required if you want to do oral. I find that if I have sex with my partner and want to finish him up with oral, it does not taste good at all and is a turn off. All you need is some soap and water to get the taste off of him. When it comes to my sex toys, I'm not sure if its me or the lube, but if not washed off right away it will flake up on your toy.
    • Feels natural
    • Long lasting
    • Needs to be washed off with soap and water

Packaging

Maximus comes in a 8.25 fl.oz. bottle which looks like a soap dispenser. It is a discreet looking bottle. When you begin to read it though you'll know what it is used for, note "sensual lubricant". It is a clear plastic bottle with a clear sticker on it, the sticker has black lettering, as well as simple black drawings of a Greek column and urn. The Maximus bottle is also stamped with best before date. Mine is dated for Jan 2015, plenty of time to use it all up. A piece of safety tape is placed over the pump for the buyer to remove, that insures you that this has not been opened or tampered with. The bottle has a locking pump. This lubricant has yet to leak on me, even when stored on its side. I love the fact that I can use this with one hand, since it is a pump after all. It allows you to have a free hand to do as you please and it's less of a mess to clean up.
    • Discreet looking packaging
    • Easy to use / dispense
    • Can be opened with one hand

Experience

I absolutely love Maximus! I first used it with my partner. We loved the pump and how easy it was to dispense. I could use one hand to get him hard and the other to then apply the lube, no messes involved! It lasted hours, when we finished we were just as slick from when we started. What I didn't like about this lube is that it leaves a bitter aftertaste I just couldn't get over. No finger licking or after math blow jobs unless you wash up. It did keep my toys slick, and never needed to be reapplied on them or my partner. It didn't dry out or get sticky on me. This lube allowed for easy and lasting penetration. This is now my/our go to lubricant! This product definitely deserves its 5 stars.
Follow-up commentary
This is still my go to lube. I use it for everything other than a BJ's. I've found this is great for anal. Really, this is an all around great lube. I know when I run out I'll be sure to buy some more. It lasts a great deal. I have yet to run out and I have half a bottle left! I am very pleased with my purchase. I'm in love with this lube!

I really want to try this lube, even though it has parabens. I'm partial to water-based lube and pump tops. Great review!

    • 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).

      Maximus is my go to lube, rarely use anything else. 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.
      Try it! Don't think U will be disappointed....:)

  • Maximus
    • 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

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