Good But Not Great

Not the best lubricant I have ever used, but it is worth keeping around in case of an emergency. It performs well, but does not last as long as is sometimes necessary.

somewhat useful review
This lubricant is better than the K-Y brand of thick sticky jelly. Astroglide is thin and runny and if you put it on your fingers it will string between them which can cause control issues. It seems to end up everywhere. The texture is very slippery at first, dries too quickly for my liking, and always has me reaching for more during hand jobs. I was also quite surprised that the lubricant became white and foamy on rubber and jelly toys. However, my husband enjoyed this lubricant because it did not become sticky with use and he prefers to have to add more than deal with sticking.

The smell of this lubricant is not good because it has glycerin as one of its main ingredients, and it lingers on your hands. The scent reminds me of bubbles that children blow outside. Manageable but not a great scent, and I believe that the scented versions would be better. From the scent alone I believe that the flavor would not great either. It is very bitter and leaves a peculiar aftertaste that is also not pleasant.

The product is not horrible, and I believe that it performs well for the price because we pay for quality. I personally do not spend my time smelling or tasting lubricant, but I did for the review so I would know the product a little better and the lubricant is just an o.k. product.

It is water-based so it is compatible with condoms and easy to clean up afterward. Just use some soap and water and it is gone. I also noticed that it does not stain or leave strange spots on dark colored sheets either. Overall in a bind I will use this product, but I am still on the search for a better product.
Follow-up commentary
The slippery texture has begun to grow on me. It was not my favorite because it was so slimey, but it is my husband's favorite. A little bit goes a long way with this lubricant and it has been worth the money.
