Intimate Organics Hydra - lubricant by Intimate Organics - review by Zombirella

Intimates Organics Hydra lubricant is the "green" way to have sex. With no harmful ingredients this is great or people with allergies or just those looking for more planet friends products. This sexual lubricant is for couples or singles to use on bodies and/or toys. This lubricant is safe to use with condoms, silicone or any material. Like with most lubricants it states to stop use if irritation should occur. It is made from plant cellulose is pure vegan and free from glycerin, parabens,menthol and DEA. The ingredients are: Aqua, Propanediol (Natural Humectant), Cellulose Gum, Phenoxyethanol, Benzoic Acid, Phenethyl Alcohol, PPG-2-Methyl Ether, Methylisothiazolinone, Alcohol, Lycium Barbarum Fruit Extract, Cymbopogon Schoenanthus Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Sodium Hydroxide--All materials are organic.

Hydra is a slight bit thicker than some water based lubricants but not by much and it isn't sticky at all. It feels wet, silky and slippery to me. It comes out easy when squeezed from the bottle. As for it staying in place, it may have been the amount my partner had on but I noticed it drip from his penis when getting ready to straddle me. When I applied it myself it didn't seem to run at all.

I have no idea what the scent is but it is VERY strong. I noticed some people wrote it had a chemical smell but to me it smelled somewhat floral. Like a real flower. This may be pleasant to some but I'm allergic to flowers and floral scents really bother my allergies and make my eyes water, this did. It did not irritate my vagina, just my eyes and sense of smell. My partner said it smelled bad and 'weird', that is all I could get out of him. Because it isn't a flavored lubricant I didn't attempt to taste it and because of the floral scent, I have no desire to do so. Flower isn't a flavor I want to taste.

We were talked into this over the JO (but in all honesty I would have picked the JO) as a lubricant that was glycerin free, non-sticky and long lasting. I let my fiance choose which one he wanted since he is the one that complains or is bothered by some of the lubricants I like that he claims are sticky or don't last long. I don't know what lube the salesgirl was using but this is NOT something I would have recommended. I was looking at the JO or the Pink Water. I never would have picked this up if I was shopping by myself. Like I sad the smell was strong and just horrible to me. It wasn't very thick, which is the point so that was a plus. It was very silky and slippery feeling. But to be honest, I didn't care for this lube and neither did he despite it being long lasting. I'm not real sure what we were expecting but this wasn't it for sure. We'll use it until it's gone but won't be buying another bottle. I didn't feel the need to wash it off because it soaks into the skin pretty well and it doesn't feel sticky. While rubbing it on my hand in the store it soaked up fairly quick but when having sex it seemed to last longer and we didn't need to re-apply it. Because it's all organic it's safe to use with any material of toys you own. It does leave your skin feeling soft but I just can't get past the smell. But like I said, floral scents irritate my allergies so it may not bother most people.

The bottle is pretty friendly, by that I mean it doesn't scream "I'm not a sexual lubricant". It has the torso of a woman with what looks to be a leaf or blade of grass with drops of dew or water on it. It states that it is certified organic, pure vegan and glycerin free lubricant and made from plant cellulose. It says Intimate Organics across the top. I would say it's bit discreet, it isn't offense and just at a glance looks like a bath/beauty product for women so it should be safe left out or to travel with. I wouldn't be worried about it since personal lubricants don't always mean SEX and the bottle isn't sexual at all. It's easy to pour and can be opened with one hand.
