Satisfactorily slippery!

ID Glide is an all-around good lubricant which does its job well; it keeps things slippery for a decent amount of time, is non-staining, non-stinky and its aftermath isn't a ridiculously sticky mess. It's safe for personal use, use with latex condoms, and should be compatible with most, if not all sex toys.
For the price, it's amazing, so it's worth giving a try!

Use

ID Glide works very well with sex toys, as its water-based formula should be safe with nearly any toy.
I believe this product is good for anyone requiring lubrication for personal, toy, or sexual use. While it's suitable for nearly any occasion, it'd be best if you're somewhere that allows you to wash it off; there's a mild residue.
In terms of interactions... I have sensitive skin, but I had no reaction to ID Glide. However, ID Glide does contain substances such as glycerin, so do take caution if you have had reactions in the past. Glycerin breaks down into a sugar, which may contribute to vaginal yeast infections (or so I have read!).

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

The texture is slick and smooth and perfect for the purposes I use it for. It feels nice and slippery between the fingers, and lubricates fingers and toys well. It's very easy to pour, due to its thinner consistency. However, this same consistency causes it to run somewhat. A minor problem for the most part.
ID Glide doesn't feel greasy in the least, but it does have a very slightly sticky residue once it dries. It isn't terribly bothersome, and washes off very easily, so it shouldn't pose much of a problem.

Taste / Aroma

The taste isn't bad, but it's nothing I would go out of my way to eat. (Then again, eating lube isn't the primary use for the stuff to begin with.) It's slightly sweet, and tastes better than some other lubes.
The smell is very, very mild, and not unpleasant.

Performance

This product is pretty good as far as endurance goes. A little can go a long way, and it feels nice and slippery for a good while. You may need to reapply before you're finished the task at hand, however, but it's still pretty good for a water-based lubricant.
In terms of clean-up, it will probably require some washing-off, as there is a faint residue that it leaves behind. Being water-based, it washes off very easily with just soap and water... And likely just water alone.
I have never known it to stain any fabrics it has come into contact with, either, which is a nice bonus.
My favourite aspects of the product are the texture, lack of strong odour and safety for use with toys. I would probably like it to be somewhat thicker, if only so I could keep it where I want it (e.g. on the tip of a dildo).

Packaging

My 9.5 ounce serving of ID Glide came to me in a tall, bluish cylindrical bottle with a flip-top and a small spout for distribution, which worked very nicely. The bottle has an odd indentation along one side, which might be a grip of sorts... I don't feel it's necessary, but it could have its uses.
The packaging did have some brief instructions... Which, while not entirely necessary, were nice to see. It potentially shows that the company cares somewhat about the people using their products.
The packaging isn't entirely discreet; you couldn't pass it off as lotion or shampoo or a sports drink by any means. However, it can fit nicely into luggage and the like, and the flip top should hopefully prevent any spillage.

Special Features

The product doesn't have any special sensation features. No warming, cooling, tingling or glow-in-the-dark features. And you know what? That's a good thing. It's simple, it does its job, and it does it fairly well, no bells or whistles (or menthol) required. I like that.

Experience

My experiences with this product have been pretty good. I've enjoyed it the most thus far out of the lubricants thus far (Astroglide, Wet), but I still feel like I'm missing something. Until I try more lubricants, I can honestly just say that ID Glide is satisfying and does its job effectively.

Sometimes I wish the lubes came in even smaller bottles so that you can empty a bottle faster to move on to the next one. I have tried KY, Astroglide, Wet, Toyfluid and heard good things about Maximus. Thanks for the review.

  • I received a sample and want to make sure it's the real thing before writing a review.
    • I got this sample with a wholesale order:

      link to picture

      Is this the one EF is selling in larger bottles, so can I review it?
    • It looks the same to me. If you're going to review it, do note that you have a smaller sample size tho.

      I would mention that. It got pretty good ratings but it's like the worst thing I ever tried maybe 2/5. So not sure if it's just my personal preference or just plain different. Ingredients looks like the same tho. I read your durex warming review! I like that lube and use it to the day. This is far worse than that in terms of smell and performance. I got a premium silicone lube recently and I can finally understand why people gave 2/5 to the durex warming :) But I like it anyway, it's different. But made me realize what tacky really means and now I got a better picture.

  • Why is this product not sold in the same types of containers?
    • I am wondering why the different weights are sold in different containers. The 17.5 oz. container looks the best, but costs more. The 4 oz bottle looks weird, and I don't like it. They should be sold in same-looking containers. Any comments? Agreements?

      I'd noticed that, too, and I think it's a bit odd. I think it'd be much better if they made them all the same as you suggested. I guess they figure they're just giving people a choice in the way the lube is disposed?

      The Gun Oil lube bottles look pretty much the same except for size or if it has a pump. Personally it doesn't bother me what the bottle looks like. Some I am sure are easier to conceal in a pocket or purse for the purpose of travel. Others do to their size like the one I baught being 35 oz. looks like a shampoo bottle and you could probably have out in the open as long as someone didn't take to close a look at it. I am sure they had their reasons for making the bottles the way they did.
