Sliquid swirl - lubricant by Sliquid, LLC - review by darthkitt3n

After another flavored lube I wanted to try kept going out of stock, I decided to settle for another product that was similar, though I didn’t want to try nearly as badly. I honestly wish I had just waited for what I originally wanted to be in stock again.

I love flavored products. I was a bit unsure about using a flavored lube, since really a wet mouth makes enough for lubrication for me. However, since this is glycerin, paraben, and sugar free, you can easily switch from oral sex to penetration without needing to wipe off the lube.

I ordered the cherry/vanilla flavor, which comes in a clear plastic 4.2 oz. bottle with a red pop tab top and label. For the price, it’s a pretty good amount of lube. The bottle doesn’t leak or spill at all, though it is a little annoying trying to grip the bottle and push the top to squirt more lube into already slippery hands. The bottle states that this is glycerin and paraben free and is 100% vegan friendly. The bottle is kind of cute, though it looks like a bottle of lube, so it’s not very discreet.

Ingredients: Purified water, plant cellulose from cotton, cyamopsis (guar conditioners), cherry and vanilla flavoring, aspartame, potassium sorbate, citric acid.

Since this is water based, it is safe to use with any toy. However, if it is used in the water, it will wash off very easily. This is a very thick gel-like lube. I was holding the bottle upside down and squeezing it for a few seconds before a thick glop came dripping out. It also left little runners of lube all over, like you would get using a hot glue gun. It wasn’t difficult to spread, though it dried up within a few minutes of applying. This stuff gets super sticky when it starts to dry out.

As well as being safe to use with any toy you desire, this can also be used for oral sex and vaginal penetration. I have only used this with oral sex and vaginal penetration and have noticed absolutely no irritation to my body. I don’t feel this would be a good choice for massages or anal sex, since it dries up too fast to really keep anything slick. Handjobs, too, won’t turn out well from the lack of slickness.

I recommend washing it off after use with some soap and water or a wipe. There is no stickiness, scent, or flavor left behind after washing. Any lube that gets on clothing or bedding will easily wash out with some detergent. Since this does not have any dye in it, it won’t stain.

One thing I noticed when I used this on my boyfriend is that it sucked the spit right out of my mouth, even after I drank a big glass of water. As soon as my mouth touches this, it feels super dry, so I had to keep stopping and licking my lips to get some moisture back. I have never experienced this with any other flavored product. The sad thing is, the lube wasn’t even moist after taking off with my saliva.

While it smells like a deliciously sweet combination of cherry and a hint of vanilla, it has almost no flavor. I reapplied some a couple of minutes after my first application in the hopes of getting more flavor, which didn’t work at all. The scent is pretty misleading.

Overall, I am not all terribly too impressed with this lube. I will most likely avoid using it for oral sex, since it just dries out my mouth and has no flavor to it anyway. The only qualities I really liked were the scent and the fact that this is safe to use anywhere.
