I don't normally use a lot of lube. I usually provide enough natural lubrication that I don't feel the need to add any type of lubricant. There are times though that a little bit of added slickness is nice and so I set out to find a good basic lubricant. I found Wet Naturals "Beautifully Bare" and liked that it was formulated for sensitive skin, hypoallergenic, and pH balanced. It's also water based, sugar-free, stain-free, glycerin free and paraben free. All this made beautifully bare the perfect lube for me to try.

Now, in the past when I had tried lubes I had tried gel type ones that were a lot heavier than this. So when I first got the Wet Naturals I was a bit skeptical that something that looked this light and watery in the bottle could really provide any kind of good lubrication. When I poured some out onto my hand it also felt like water. Once it's rubbed though you can feel that it's a little silkier than water would be. It does feel very natural and it does not feel sticky or "gooey" or anything. It has barely any smell, what it does have is a fresh botanical type smell. Very pleasant.

Like I said, I don't normally feel the need for a lube usually, so what I was using it for was basically extra. Because of that I feel that the Wet Naturals provided more than enough slickness and lasted just fine. However, I really only needed it to last until things got going. Once that happens I'm good to go on my own. Or, sometimes I'll need some after we've been playing a while and I'll use some of this lube and it'll last me until we're done. I never need it to last very long; if I did I think I'd probably choose a different lubricant.

This lubrication doesn't work out all that well for me giving my husband a hand job though. When it's used on a man and it's not getting the natural lubricant that a woman has it absorbs really quickly. My hand still glides a bit better after it's absorbed, but it doesn't act as a lubricant long without having to reapply. I can use saliva to reactivate it a bit, but that doesn't extend the time that long. While it was fine while it lasted, there's definitely far better lubes out there for men. But, for my use this works out perfectly because I don't need it for a long time. This way when I'm done it's also pretty much absorbed and I don't feel a lot of excess wetness, which is what I like. I don't like to feel like I've used lube after I'm done.

I have also tried this lube for light, very light, anal play. Nothing that requires thrusting, but I've used it to insert a butt plug and it worked out fine for that. I would say for any more extensive anal play a heavier, longer lasting lubricant should be used.

One thing I can say is that even after the lubricant is absorbed, the skin still feels very smooth. I notice that after I use the Wet Naturals I feel like my skin is protected from chafing. It creates a barrier on my skin almost and because of that I like to use it more often than I even need it, just for that purpose. Sometimes after I shave, my skin will be ultra sensitive and any kind of lengthy sex time will irritate me. If I use this lube I feel that it protects my lady bits a bit and I can go longer without feeling that chafed/raw feeling afterward.

I think I actually love this lubricant even more now! It's completely non-irritating for me and it lasts for everything we need it to and when it dries it just feels as if nothing was ever there. I have started using it even when I don't actually *need* to just because the little extra silkiness that it gives makes sex even that more fabulous. It's left no stains on our sheets, I always end up wiping my hand on the side of the bed after it's applied to get the excess off, I know, I know...but we never have anything around so that's what happens, and the sheets always wash up just fine.
