Pure passion - gel discontinued by LIfestyle Ventures - review by Baby Sinead

When I first got this lube to test I fell in love with how adorable it was. A cute modern design with a whimsical cocktail illustrating the taste on it's packaging. Than I looked up the price...$22 for a tiny little thing of lube? That's a bit much.

Once I got over the packaging I decided to try a little out even though I was by myself. It said to use two depressions but I got so much out of one depression I'd recommend only one. The product instructs you to rub it into your clitoris for three minutes. This seems a bit silly. Rub any lube on your clitoris for three minutes and you'll probably get turned on. Even more so if it's a partner is doing it but I digress. After a minute a cooling sensation set in. And not in a good way. My vagina was freezing. Maybe some people like this sensation but it honestly freaked me out. I felt very cold, having someone blow on it made it even worse. It took over ten minutes for this very uncomfortable sensation to go away. It felt similar to touching something so cold it burns, and again, I must repeat this, Not In A Good Way. I was so turned off by the whole thing that I refused to try it with a partner during foreplay because it just doesn't agree with me. I even tried it again with 1/2 a depression and experienced the same horrible effects! I would not recommend this to anyone.

Unless they like cold vaginas. In which case I have some questions for them.

After my vagina felt like a vagina again I tested the other parts of the Pure Passion lube|Pure passion gel. Taste? Weird, kind of peppermint pineapple or something. It does make your tongue a bit cold and tingly but not horrible. No aftertaste. The lube doesn't have a strong or noticeable smell. It's not sticky and has a nice consistency.
