Safe and Tasty

Sliquid Swirl is definitely a good water based lube for your drawer. If you like to change back and forth between oral and sex, this has a good taste with pretty safe ingredients (it is paraben free, glycerin free, and 100% vegan). You can use it with all your toys too. It may not be the thickest (not good for anal) but it feels natural and works well for many sexual escapades and solo play. It also comes in some pretty interesting flavors and I definitely want to try more of them.

Use

Sliquid Swirl is a pretty decent lube. It can be used to reduce friction during sex, add flavor to oral sex, act as a replacement for your own natural lube, and for toy use. It is water based, so that means it is compatible with all toys including silicone toys. It's quite natural feeling. I wouldn't use it anally because it's not the thickest consistency. I would recommend to not try using this in the tub or shower since it is water based and will be washed away fast. My favorite use for it is transitioning back and forth between sex and oral because if you want to switch, there is no bad taste that normal lubes sometimes have. It also smells pretty nice!

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

I think this lube is a bit thin but not too runny. It lasts for a bit but I have noticed on a few days that I've had to replace it once or twice during sex/solo use. It comes out of the bottle in squirts and is not too sticky on the hands. Afterwards, it does not leave any dryness or stickiness. In fact, I have not really noticed any.

This lube is glycerin free, so yay, no yeast infections! It is also non staining, hypoallergenic, and latex compatible. Make sure to read the ingredient list though and make sure you are not allergic or sensitive to any of the ingredients. It does contain aspartame which some people think causes yeast infections but sources have all sorts of different information. I haven't gotten an infection while using this lube though.

Here are the ingredients (and a bit about them): purified water, plant cellulose (totally safe), cyamopsis (from a plant also), cherry & vanilla flavoring, aspartame (artificial sweetener), potassium sorbate (may cause skin irritations), citric acid (found in lemons and such).
    • Slick
    • Velvety

Taste / Aroma

It tastes a bit like cherry candy except less sweet and less fake. I love it. It's a little milder then most flavored things but I think it's wonderful (not overly powerful but definitely adds flavor). It also smells like cherries and the smell is a little more powerful than the taste but it's good.
    • Light taste
    • Smells good

Performance

This lube usually works for the purpose it is intended for. I've used it for solo play, partner sex, during oral, and between intercourse and oral. It's water based so I don't have to worry about my silicone toys getting damaged. I got it because it was flavored and had none of the big bad ingredients I’ve heard bad things about. So far, I have had no reactions to it at all. It leaves no stains, it's not sticky, it's easy to clean up, and I haven't noticed any residue. Performance wise, the only problem is sometimes I need to reapply it but that doesn't always happen. To clean up, you can just use a wet towel or a wet wipe but usually I don't notice it being there after use because it feels natural, so I don't feel the need to clean.
    • Feels natural

Packaging

This lube comes in a 4.2 once bottle, which is a little small but not too small (I can't wrap my fingers fully around the bottle but it's about my hand size). It does say intimate lubricant on it, so it's not that discreet if someone reads the bottle but it's a cute bottle with designs on it (cherry vanilla has a red label with white flowers on the clear bottle). So if someone catches a glimpse, they might just think it's lotion or something. The bottle has the ingredients, the Sliquid promise, and some general facts about it on the backside (it says it's formulated to last longer than most Hollywood marriages). The cap is your average press cap (like on most shampoo bottles) and stays shut pretty well. I have left it on the floor on its side plenty of times and it has not leaked. Even though the lube is not too thick, it is viscous enough so the bottle does not dispense more than you need accidentally. I think the bottle would be a good size for traveling; I would just be careful if you are packing for an airplane (liquids explode).
    • Can be opened with one hand
    • Would make a nice gift

Experience

I've used this on most of my silicone toys and it works pretty great. I use about one or two squeezes and I'm good. My partner has also used this during sex and I love the smell it has, not to mention if my partner or I want oral after/in the middle of intercourse, we do not have to taste the weird tastes that a lot of other lubricants have. This is nice because I like to switch it up once in awhile. I just think that it's fun to have nice smelling and tasting lube sitting around.
Follow-up commentary
I still like the smell and taste of this lube, not to mention its realistic consistency. I just wouldn't use a ton of it at a time because you only need a little to go a long way.

    Thanks for the review. I'm not a cherry fan, so I'd probably try a different flavor.
