BlueSweetPea's review of Sliquid Satin Lubricant Personal Intimate Moisturiser 125ml

A little bottle of lube for the stylish and chic girls

I received this from Lovehoney as part of their Sex Toy Testers. Thank you LH, what a lovely treat.

I have to be honest and say I have never given lube much thought before, I have never really needed it apart from for anal play and then I have always been a very boring KY girl. I decided to have a look at the range you can buy on LH and couldn’t believe how many options there are for so many different uses.

Sliquid Satin is sold as an Intimate Moisturiser and comes in a beautiful deep blue bottle that you could easily leave out in your bathroom or bedroom without raising any eyebrows. It looks just like a massage or oil product. The bottle is designed with a flip cap, you then turn the bottle and squeeze out what you need. This is easy to control and you can get the tiniest amounts out this way meaning no wastage at all. One word of warning would be to wipe any residue from the flip cap before you close it, otherwise you get a build-up of dried lube which if you leave you will have to peel off next time you use the product. And my OH wants me to add that he did not like the bottle design and said it was hard to squeeze any liquid it if you already had some on your fingers.

I wasn’t sure what an intimate moisturiser was but my understanding is that this is your basic lubricant, designed to replicate a woman’s naturally occurring vaginal fluids. It could be used for enhancing sexual experiences or as a relief from general vaginal dryness.

This product has no odour or taste, is not at all sticky and a little goes a very long way. I have tested it for both vaginal and anal penetration and found that it worked perfectly well in both of these scenarios. Where it is far better than one of the more oily lubes, is that it feels so natural and doesn’t make any sort of mess. Just a tiny bit works really well and you don’t end up with a mess or staining on your underwear or sheets.

This product is Vegan friendly and contains no aspartame, glycerine or parabens, it is water based and can be used with condoms and sex toys, including silicon ones. Knowing it has no chemical nasties in it is great and you don’t need to worry about what is being absorbed into your body through vaginal or anal walls.

I have to admit I am a convert to this lovely liquid lube and where I have used it most often is to get things going during solo play, either with or without toys. I am not sure that you would want to use it for anal if you were new to that type of play or needed a lot of help with your natural lubrication. But it worked fine for us.

The product may look a little pricey but you need such a small amount on each occasion that I believe that this is great value for money and this bottle will keep me going for some time.
