ID stimulating gel mild - clit lube by I-D Lubricants - review by charletnarouh

This is a gel meant to stimulate a woman's clitoris. It's intended to be used for partner sex or masturbation and can be used with or without a vibrator. Due to chemical taste, it's probably not ideal for oral sex. It does contain glycerin so those with sensitivities or allergies beware. Due to it being water based it's probably not ideal for the shower, though I tried it for the first time in the shower so that if I had an uncomfortable or adverse reaction I could wash it off immediately.

This is a fairly thin gel. It absorbs quickly into the skin so don't plan on using it as lubricant, it doesn't stick around long. It doesn't leave any kind of residue that I've detected. It's a little slippery when first applied but like I said, it doesn't last very long.

I can't detect a smell to this product. If there is one, it's very slight and not obtrusive in the least. The taste is like most ID products I've used, very "chemically" and unpleasant so this probably isn't a good option for oral sex, unless you can get over nasty tastes.

This product absorbs quickly into the skin. This is both good and bad. Good because it doesn't seem to leave any residue or anything lingering on the skin. Bad because it can't double as lube. It's fairly thin even though it's marketed as a "gel". It's thicker than a true liquid but not by much. When I followed the instructions to massage it into my clit, I didn't notice much more than a slight warm feeling which may or may not have been more because I was rubbing my clit than any actual effect of the product. Adding more of the product didn't seem to increase the reaction any. I didn't have any burning or tingling on my clit, pleasant or unpleasant. It didn't seem to make my clit any more sensitive to vibrations. It is water-based so it's safe with all toys. However, it does have glycerin and a lot of those pesky, unpronounceable chemicals which makes me a bit less inclined to use it. The ingredients are as follows:
Water, Glycerin, Ethoxydigycol, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Passiflora Incarnata Flower Extract, Coryanthe Yohimbe Bark Extract, Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Lepidium Meyeni, Turnera Aphrodisiaca Extract, Citric Acid, Flavor, Niacin, Methylparaben, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Stevia Rebaudiana Extract, Vanillyl Butylether.

The product comes packaged in a small cardboard box cut out to show the tube through it. The actual bottle is a small cylinder, smaller around than a finger with a pump on the top. It dispenses easily and cleanly with no mess and dispenses a small amount at a time, no pouring or dripping necessary. Neither the box or the bottle are terribly discreet, though they could be worse. The label on the bottle is printed directly on the bottle itself and cannot be peeled off. The box has all the necessary ingredient information and directions. The bottle has limited information and directions printed on it. I have carried it in my purse with no leaking. One of the only things I liked about this product was the packaging. I'd really like a better lubricant product in this same bottle. The dispensing pump and the small size make it perfect for on the go and it's small enough to tuck inside the drawstring pouch with my small clit vibe and take it in my purse easily.

In theory, this gel is supposed to warm and stimulate the clitoris but I didn't notice much of an effect.

I wasn't terribly impressed with this product. It contains a lot of chemicals, including glycerin. It is not hypoallergenic. I didn't notice much of a "stimulating" sensation at all beyond a slight warmth that probably had more to do with friction than the product itself. It absorbes quickly which means that it cannot double as lube. Everyone's sensitivity level is different so it may have more effect on someone else but it didn't do anything for me. If it wasn't for the questionable ingredients I'd consider trying the "wild" version but I think I'm gonna give it a pass and stick with organic lubricant products.
