Sliquid organics natural - lubricant discontinued by Sliquid, LLC - review by Snappy

Sliquid Organics natural lubricant contains certified ingredients, unlike so many other lubes that bear the name "organic" but list no certified ingredients whatsoever. Its certified ingredients are: aloe barbadensis, extracts of hibiscus, flax, green tea and sunflower seed. Its non-certified ingredients are: purified water, plant cellulose (from cotton),natural tocopherols (Vitamin E), citric acid (citrus fruits), and phenoxyethanol (rose ether). It would have been helpful if an organic percentage was listed (i.e. 75% organic). It's hard to believe that this lube is hypoallergenic as the label states because it contains citric acid and rose ether, and citrus and rose are two common allergens. Nonetheless, it is an excellent natural lubricant.

According to the label, this lube is latex friendly, nonstaining, not tested on animals and vegan, all claims that make me happy to choose Sliquid Organics over other commercial lubes. It is odorless and tasteless despite the presence of citrus and rose ingredients. My one wish is that it was thicker, more like a gel than a liquid. It runs fairly easily and there is only so much that can be applied to a surface before it begins to drip. This is not a serious problem, though, as a small amount of liquid is enough to lubricate skin and toys effectively. It dries smooth, not sticky, and cleans up easily. It refreshes with water and lasts much longer than I would expect from a liquid formulation.

First I tried Sliquid Organics on my SmartBalls. I seldom lack natural lube of my own but wanted to see how the Sliquid Organics lube worked on my elastomed-covered SmartBalls. It was easy to cover them with lube (I poked a smallish hole in the cardboard that seals the bottle so that I wouldn't waste any lube) and they inserted more easily than usual. The lube is almost undetectable after a short time. Except for the extra slipperiness of the SmartBalls I couldn't feel it inside me at all.

Next I tried the lube on a hard plastic anal toy. It was easy to cover the toy's surface but I wished that the lube was thicker so that I could add a thicker coat of lube to the toy prior to insertion. The toy was slippery enough to insert with ease and, again, I couldn't feel the lube inside me shortly after the toy was inserted. Finally, I applied Sliquid Organics to a silicone menstrual cup. It slid right in and stayed in place without sliding around or slipping down and out.
