Perfectly Silky
Liquid Silk is, to me, the best of the best in water based lubes. No glycerin, it's slick and silky and very natural feeling while remaining easy to clean up and compatible with any toy. Awesome!Published: January 22, 2009
Pros:
Very natural feel, slick and silky, lasts a long time, not sticky, no glycerin.
Cons:
Not good for shower / water play
Follow-up commentary
2 months after original review
I was recently made aware that this is a hybrid lube - part water based, part silicone - so it's not necessarily safe with silicone toys as I'd originally stated in my review. (Eden does list it under water based lubes)
I've used it with all my silicone and silicone blend toys, however, with no issue so I suggest doing a patch test on a small, unobtrusive area if you want to use it on questionable toys.

Liquid Silk and Silicone Toys
-
So, while looking through highly rated water based lubes, I came across Liquid Silk. Aside from the bitter taste, no one seems to have any complaints.
However, I noticed that the fourth ingredient is Dimethicone - and I was wondering what everyone's experience with this and silicone sex toys was? Is the silicone in Liquid Silk a small enough portion that it has no effect on toys, or is it generally not recommended for that type of play?
Or does the bonding potential of silicone lubes have more to do with the type/quality of silicone than anything else? -
That's a really good question because Dimethicone is a silicone.
Basically it should be ok to use as long as the toy is made of medical grade silicone. There should, in theory, be no reaction. I, personally, wouldn't want to test that out on my own toys though. You can do a patch test on a small part of the toy. The reaction should be immediate if there is going to be one.
Anyone else know about this? -
I have had liquid silk react to a silicone toy. Which sucks because I love it. :(
