Sliquid sizzle - lubricant discontinued by Sliquid, LLC - review by ScarlettRed

Read the entire review

I like to try out lubes of all varieties. I find that no matter what kind of sex you have you can always use lube if you want. This time I thought I'd go for a warming lube. I've tried Sliquid before, but with no success. I ended up chucking the other lube of theirs. It just wasn't for me, but I figured I'd try again.

It has the same design on the bottle with the little flower design in the lower corner. Nothing over the top, but instead is simple, elegant, and not obnoxious about it being for sex.

About the actual product. Similar disappointment to the last kind I tried. I really don't know what's wrong with me that I keep going back to a brand that disappoints. This one I won't chuck out of a moving vehicle over a bridge or anything. It doesn't have a nauseating scent or flavor like the last one. What it does have is a quick dry mechanism. Basically, if you want a quickie and need a lube that drys fast then this is for you!

There was a nice warming sensation, I'll give them that. That didn't last too long either though. Which, depending on how you feel about warming sensations, you might like. I bought it for the warming and it failed to last.

The texture of the lube was alright at first. It wasn't as thick as I prefer but was a little thin for me. That made it more challenging to apply with one hand because slipped easily through my fingers. On the bright side, the cap is pretty standard. I liked that. It was easy to open and close with one hand and the bottle stayed clean so I could grab it easily when the time came to reapply, because with this lube it's inevitable.

So, I said it drys quick, and for me it does. Now you can disagree, maybe yours was thick, maybe I'm crazy in thinking this is thin. This isn't my first encounter with Sliquid. My first encounter went the same way. That all said, I won't trash it. I can still use it. Thing is, I'll end up using it when I'm having spontaneous sex and need lube, then check my drawer to find this is the only thing I have. It's not like it's over priced or ridiculous! That's why I got it in the first place. It's a fair price but just didn't have what I was looking for. I feel bad saying that because I know many people are brand loyal to Sliquid, I just haven't discovered why.

The last bit that I have to talk about this is the ingredients. To me, that's very important! It does contain menthol and parabens. Not something that they should be proud of. If you don't know about those I'll tell you. Menthol is used to create that warm or cooling sensation. It can dry you out and isn't really something you want down there. Paraben's are preservatives. It has been thought to encourage breast cancer cell growth. It is also easily absorbed through the skin and not something you really want in your body.
