Probe Sticky and Blech

I wouldn't recommend this to anyone, based on my experience. Though, as I mentioned, it may work just fine for women and vaginal use. I felt mislead by the use of the term "Thick and Rich" in the name, but your mileage may vary.
Published:
Pros

Use

This product would probably be used best as a vaginal lube. I tried it for anal-use and it was very underwhelming and found myself reaching for my standby lube of choice (Maximus).


It is a water-based lube and as such should be safe with all of your toys and condoms, but those that are allergic or have problems with glycerin, grapefruit seed, or polyethylene oxide should steer clear of this lube.
    • Masturbation
    • Sex

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

When I first put a drop of it on my fingers, I was excited... It felt slick and kind of thick, but that feeling quickly went away.

When you first apply it, it feels like any water based lube. It isn't super slippery, but it is definitely better than nothing.


I was honestly amazed at this being called thick and rich though, as when I squeezed some of it onto my forearm to see if it was thick it ran all over the place. Thank goodness I had a towel down already just in case or it would have been all over my sheets.


As time goes on, it gets kind of sticky, and leaves these "streamers" from anything that touches it and pulls away. Imagine micro-fine lube threads hanging in the air and getting all over everything.
    • Smooth
    • Thin

Taste / Aroma

I didn't get a real scent from this particular lube, but that may be because I am having some major sinus issues. I can smell the mint in one of my cooling lubes just fine though, so this may really just have no scent.


The taste was better than I expected, after seeing how it performed during a preliminary touch test; but it still wasn't all that good. Better than some other lubes I have tasted, but I wouldn't exactly want this stuff all over my tongue unless absolutely necessary.
    • Light taste

Performance

I don't know how long it really lasts, as I got annoyed with it pretty quickly. I was less than a minute into playing and it seemed to already be getting sticky, so I trashed it, wiped myself clean with an Eden wipe and pulled out my go-to anal lube.


I'll be honest here, I loved the way it felt for the first little bit, but it soon changed. I also expected a thicker (almost lotion like) texture and feel from something labeled thick and rich, but this certainly doesn't bring that to the table.
    • Dries up too fast
    • Gets sticky

Packaging

As I only had the little sample pack, the packaging is just the little foil paper pack. No instructions to speak of, but you can definitely travel with this stuff, as it is a tiny little pack (altogether smaller than a stack of 3 or 4 condoms) and easy to stash.

The pack should also be recyclable, if you choose to do so.

Sometimes I do wish the little sample packs of lube were resealable, as sometimes I don't need a whole packet of lube, but alas that isn't an option here. I tried it and trashed it.
    • Messy dispenser
    • Recyclable
    • Travel friendly
Follow-up commentary
I don't think I'll ever buy a big bottle of it, but after trying the little sample pack again I don't mind it. It seems that I judged a little to quickly after my first try and while it just doesn't compare to my favorite lube, it still isn't bad!

    Sorry it disappointed. The silky light is excellent (and tasteless) for vaginal or fleshlight fun, but yeah it's not like maximus for anal use if that is what you were expecting. Good job.

    Thanks for the review! Hopeful this is better for vaginal use than for anal!
  • Contributor: MrWill
    Yeah Trysexual, I've got the silky light to try also. Thanks for editing!
  • Contributor: KissTheSkyBaby
    Thanks for the review! I'll be stearing clear of this stuff. Maximus on the other hand will be in my next order per you and trysexuals recommendations.

    Sorry this is crappy. You did a great review, though. Nice to see honesty!
  • Contributor: TJtheMadHatter
    Great review (streamers, eww!), I'll be avoiding this one. lol Now I want to try the Maximus!
  • Contributor: Trysexual
    FYI. the Silky light is terrible for hand jobs or jacking off..dries fast, but stays slick for vaginal/fleshlight without the bitter taste. Try it in your Tenga.

    The title of your review made me laugh,so I HAD to read the review. It is very informative. The "streamers" that you mentioned reminded me of the horror of crafting using a hot glue gun- another funny. Thank you
