Premium price, not so premium performance
ID Velvet is a nice silicone lube. Not my favorite but a small drop goes a long way and it's slippery and slick without that gelatinous water based lube feeling. Reapplication may be needed, however, since the slick "feeling" goes away, even though you're still covered in lube.

Pros
Slick, velvety, fairly long lasting, a little goes a long way
Cons
Screw off top is horrible, doesn't absorb into skin well
Experience
I found it odd that the ID Velvet lube was so very different than the Better Sex Essentials lube since the ingredients are so similar and yet they were miles apart in feel and clean up. Odd. Very odd.
Follow-up commentary
8 days after original review
After a couple weeks of using exclusively this lube (other than with Miss Jenna, who needed water based on her UR3) we've discovered that it's really quite terrific for hand jobs. Taylor doesn't need a lot of lube for a hand job so the fact that it begins to feel less slippery after a while doesn't bother him - especially since, though it feels less slippery, there's still actually plenty of lube on his dick.
I"m getting more used to it during sex, too.
I guess it's the type of product that grows on you. Still not my first choice but I'm not going to put my nose in the air and ignore it, either.
Final note... It also works TERRIFIC as a hair serum. A tiny drop rubbed between my palms and then thru my hair makes it shiny and heavenly soft! Way better than drugstore hair serums that are cut with all sorts of alcohol and filler oils mixed with silicone to save money since silicone is costly.

Thanks for a thorough review. I like that you gave it several chances & found some ways it actually works for you. Love the hair suggestion, I agree that it's better than the serums with all the additives. It's also a good top layer after all your moisturizers/treatments because it 'locks' them in. but your skin can still 'breathe'. Thanks, again, for the review!
