Pjur Man Water-Based Glide Lube 30ml

THE SCIENCE!

Container is round black plastic with white writing and blue logo. Lid easily screws on and off. A clear plastic top allows you to squeeze the lube out of the tube as desired. Tube is 9cm tall, 2.5cm in diameter, and contains 30ml of lube. The size of the tube allows it to be carried discreetly and the design prevents any leakage.

A single drop of the lube was placed on my hand and rubbed vigorously. It offered extreme glide for the first 15 seconds. At that point it gave a much more average glide that I expect from lubes. At 30 seconds I noticed it getting tacky, and at 45 seconds it had lost all glide and needed reapplied.

The lube has a very subtle odour. It tastes sweet/sour and although not incredibly enjoyable, is not completely distasteful.

The lube is advertised as condom-safe, moisturising, and dermatologically tested. It is safe to use on dry or tender skin.

It is water based, and is very soluble. So it washes off with minimum of ease and has left no stains on my sheets or clothing.

THE KINK!

I have never really historically enjoyed lube. During sex it has helped in a few moments, but when own my lonesome I have found it messy, sticky and an annoyance that I have avoided outside of experimentation. I still use moisturiser to lube at times, like some kind of throwback to a 70s porno.

But these days my sex life has picked up and I am getting back into experimenting more as I have stronger awareness of what I want and what works. In all honesty my new routines make it sometimes feel like I am practicing for a sexual pentathlon.

In the past year I have become a lube user again. The main purposes I use it are for douching, anal insertion, and to assist in sex. Sadly this review comes at a time where I cannot get near my OH, so this review has three focus areas: douching, anal insertion, and masturbation (something I generally hate using lube for).

Douching – My rekindled love for bum play has brought back into the steady routine of douching. Not only does it clean out any unsightly mess that could gunk up toys, but it also helps keep me regular without having to resort to a healthy diet. This lube was put to the test and was found lacking. Although it allowed for quick and easy insertion, the lube was dissolved by the water so fast that it constantly needed reapplied. I enjoyed that I did not feel like I had a gunky bum afterwards, and the lube just seemed to be absorbed (moisturised anus for the win!), but I felt that it made the task slower and more challenging. Not really a douching lube.

Anal Insertion – Like a number of men on Lovehoney, I am not afraid to admit I love having my ass played with. For the first time in years I am doing solo play for my own enjoyment, and again I need a good lube to make it easy and fun. I applied a few drops of lube to myself (I now moisturise my anus more than any part of my body it seems), then smeared a big blob over the object and tried it for size. The initial glide of the lube is fantastic and everything just flowed into place like a team of perverted ice-skaters. The entire experience lasted under 5 minutes and although it was problem free, I felt that the lube was losing its potency at the end and would have needed reapplied. Afterwards cleaning was so easy; some warm water took all the lube off the toy and my hands with no residue, tackiness or greasiness left behind. Again the lube seemed to just get absorbed into my bum and I didn’t have that annoying squidgy feeling I generally get after play.

Masturbation – I hate using lube to masturbate. I spill it everywhere, I cover myself in it, and I ultimately feel like I just had a cameo in Ghostbusters as I have to go shower all the slime off. I leak enough fluids and mess during masturbation as it is, I have never been excited by adding more messy fluids to the mix and being unable to touch anything until thoroughly scrubbed. This lube changed that. A nice dollop made for a smooth and enjoyable experience and afterwards I had it all washed off my hands in a matter of seconds. I just let the other residue moisturise my cock, which I’m sure the OH will appreciate when I see her next. Huzzah for pampered genitalia!

THE MONEY SHOT!

+Amazing glide when applied

+Great for quick play

+Easy wash off

+Leaves no stains

+Moisturises and absorbs into skin

+Discreet container

-Loses glide fast

-Useless for douching

-Can run out fast

Looking back on how I’ve used the lube I would have to say that the main attraction of it to me is that it is easy clean. I am a bit OCD and hate having a slimy feel in my pants and mess all over my hands that needs scrubbed off. Removing that hassle seriously increases my enjoyment of the lube.

In addition its moisturising quality seems to make it dissipate faster. A little annoying during use, as I feel that you have to reapply it every five minutes, but great for skin health and for cleanup.

Given I have used it for short times I have no suffered much at the loss of glide, but this should be taken into account before considering this lube. With the small size of the tube, you could easily find yourself running out fast.

Overall an enjoyable lube when used in the right way.
