Tickle her pink - gel discontinued by Pow Products Inc. - review by Dawn (Lilac Distraction)

These types of arousal lubes are best used when you want a little more oomph to your clitoral stimulation. They increase bloodflow to the area and add a number of different sensations from cooling, to warming, to tingly.

Tickle Her Pink is no different. It is made to increase clitoral sensitivity which helps make orgasms easier! Who doesn't want that? While other comparable arousal lubes are filled with crazy chemicals that you can't pronounce, this one is mostly natural. This would be great for women who are looking to get more stimulation, but are turned off by the ingredient list on other products, or those who have sensitivities to the ingredients in them.

Tickle Her Pink is somewhere in between warming and cooling, but won't leave you luke-warm. It certainly does heighten arousal. It can be used during foreplay to help speed things up, it can be used for solo adventures with toys or with hands alone.

Here is a breakdown of the ingredients:
De-ionized Water, L-Arginine, L-Ornithine, Witch Hazel, Orange Flower Extract, Peppermint Oil, Damiana, Ffrescolate, Methylparaben, Propylparaben, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice.

As you can see, it does include parabens, but so do a lot of cosmetics, soaps, and other things that we use on a daily basis. Witch hazel and aloe help to soothe the area of application. Damiana is a well-known aphrodisiac (but I'm not sure if it has topical effects). Peppermint oil and L-Arginine help to produce the stimulating effects of this gel.

The product is fully ingestible, but I would not use it for effects during oral sex, as it needs to stay in place to work.

Tickle Her Pink is a thin, gel-like consistency. It is easy to apply, does not drip, run, or cause a mess. It is not slippery like a lube would be. If you need a little extra glide, I would suggest letting this product work its magic before applying lube so that you can get the full effect of it. It does not get sticky and absorbs into the skin without leaving any evidence behind.

I did not notice much of a smell while using this product. When I tried to smell the product as I dispensed it, I could barely tell if it had a scent at all. Because of the peppermint oil, it may have a slight minty smell. The orange flower extract may also add a hint of a natural floral scent.

I couldn't notice much of a taste other than a slight minty taste, as well. Even though this stuff is safe to ingest, I wouldn't suggest trying to eat it, because it does contain parabens.

I've tried a few of these gels on the market and this one is not my favorite. I like it more than Liquid V, but Start It Up is still my favorite. This one produced milder results than the others. It would be great for those of you who may find the other arousal lubes as being too intense.

The directions say to apply sparingly, making sure to work it well into the clitoral area, underneath the hood, and all of that stuff. It also says to reapply as needed, and that three applications may be needed for you to feel the full effects. For me, this was slower to take action than the other lubes, as it took over a minute for me to feel anything, whereas the others started immediately. Start It Up only required one application before I was on my way to orgasm. This one, on the other hand, was very mild. Instead of it tickling my pink, I was just left with the thought of "Hmmm. That's interesting." Reapplying didn't do that much, either. Perhaps I have a clit of steel and this would work well for women who are more sensitive. After about 10 minutes, the feeling was gone, whereas others kept working for a while longer.

As previously stated, this product has more natural ingredients which may be why it is mild. I also noticed that the others contain menthol, while this one does not. Perhaps that is the reason for the light somewhere-in-between-warming-and-cooling feeling I got from it.

It is latex-safe and water-based, so you won't have to worry about it being incompatible with anything.

The packaging isn't discreet at all. There is a woman in a Marilyn Monroe style pose with her hands between her legs and "Tickle Her Pink" written on the front. The back includes instructions and ingredients in both English and French.
