Warmer than cooling lube, but not by much.
Disappointing. I don't find this lube to be warming much at all. While it is a good lube for lubrication purposes, it does very little in the "extras" category, as a warming lube should do.Published: May 1, 2010
Pros:
Not sticky, easy to clean, scent free
Cons:
Doesn't warm
With how awesome of an experience we had with the Climax Bursts Cooling Lubricant, we just had to keep trying more of their lubes and grabbed the warming lube. We have had epic fails with pretty much every other warming lube we'd tried; so, while we went into this with hope, we didn't have much, if any, expectations.
One thing I've noticed with most warming lubes is that they get quite warm. Very warm that is, if not hot. However, Climax Bursts Warming Lube doesn't get hot, or barely even warm. It's warmer than cooling lube for sure, and warmer than regular lube; however, it did not seem to be warm enough for that feature of this lube to cause pleasure in and of itself, as warming/cooling/tingling lubes often do.
I got no sensation internally and very little on my clit. The most sensation I got was on my outer labia, and that was only after a lot of stimulation and then with air moving over it via breath, a breeze from the window, or simple body movements, that didn't seem to matter. My partner, however, gets no warming sensation whatsoever from this lube, no matter the stimulus.
The bottle has red on it, which is very similar in shade to the tingling pink color, so that does lead to confusion sometimes if the lighting is low. The beads in it are also red. We find that you really don't feel them. The burst with very little pressure, which is what causes the extra warming sensation (if you feel it.) They also happen to be made with vitamin E, which is pretty cool for its moisturizing properties.
While this lube is excellent in its lubrication tendencies, as we've found all Climax Bursts lubes are, however, its warming sensations fail. If you're looking for something with a lot of extra warming properties, this is not it. However, if you want something mild with excellent lubrication, this is definitely the product to go with.
Plus, the top of the bottle looks like a nipple. That's just novel and entertaining, you have to admit it!

Follow-up commentary

I'm still a little "meh" about this lube. Since its warming properties are just this side of unnoticeable, it's still just a regular lube for us, grab-it-and-go style. We only use it if we can't find another one.

Sounds like there are a lot of negative reviews about this item. To bad it does not work as well as it looks!

Thank you for viewing Climax bursts warming – arousal lube review page!
What type of base is this lubricant? How much does it take to moisten and lubricate the area intended for use? How long does it last? What are the ingredients in the lubricant? Ingredients are important because some might be allergic to one or more components of the lubricant.
Thanks for the review!
Nice review, thanks!
@vieuxcarre - Ingredients are: propelene glycol, glyveryl polymethacarlate, PEG-8, water, sunflower seed oil, yocopheryl, acetate, retinyl palmitate, agar, red 30. Actually, my partner is allergic to several lubricant ingredients, so I'm quite aware of the importance of them. I guess that with how easy they are found, I've been more in the habit of focusing on the performance. (And indeed, they are on the main page for this product here on Eden Fantasys: link) As for how much it takes, I find that changes depending on who you are and what you're doing. For intercourse, we use about a nickle sized dollop. For how long it lasts, we have not found any need to re-apply, even after half an hour of sex. However, this really is incredibly subjective to your body and your partner's body. I tend to naturally lubricate a lot, so we use less lube than other's I know personally.
@NuMe - Thanks!!
Too bad it doesn't warm :-(
Nice review!
Good to know this isn't a strong warming lube. I hate really strong stuff because of my sensitive skin. Thanks for the idea!
Sammi - yea I know It's ended up being just standard lube for us
JR - Oh, it's perfect for you then! If you get it, once your'e all lubed and "warmed up" try blowing on it. The air moving across the lubed service tends to "activate" the warming sensation of it.
I had high hopes for this oh well thanks for the review
ty for the review
