This is really odd for me and I'm hoping it's just me, but I swear one of my clear lubes is turning yellow. I have the Adam and Eve Personal Lubricating Gel and I love it. However, it looks like the lube is turning yellowish. It doesn't expire until 2012 and I'm not having any reactions to it either when I use it, both during and after. I store it with my other lubes in a shoebox under my bed, and the house never gets too hot or humid. And I've only used just barely 1/4 of the bottle for the smaller bottle Eden sells.

Should I toss it? Is it going bad? less

It's the lube itself. I left some out to dry and when I peeled it up it was yellow-ish tinted.

I just worry because I don't want anything bad near my sensitive bits and get a UTI like I had one time (now i take cranberry caps every day just in case) or get a yeast infection or worse. less

Hmm. Seeing residue that is yellow after being left out to dry doesn't mean your lube is yellowing. Could be that that lube, when brand new, will dry to a yellowish residue. So here's what you should do - squirt some lube into a small glass (or if large glass, not so it pools on the bottom but on the side). Then hold it up to a white wall. Does it appear yellow? If yes, toss it. Water based lubes are constantly playing a antibacterial game with the outside world because their composition is tasty to bacteria. It's unavoidable. Don't use them if they've "changed" on you, as its better to be safe than sorry. less
