Use:

Well, like it says on the bottle - it's anal lube. You use this to lubricate your anal sex toys and make sure you don't hurt your butt during anal sex. It is compatible with latex condoms and silicone toys. I was delighted to discover that although it is an anal lube, it is also vaginal safe according to the label on the bottle.

Material/Texture:

For a water-based lube, this stuff is slick! It's a very slick, slightly thick lube that is not watery but not quite a gel. It has no odor. It has a very subtle slightly sweet taste with a mildly bitter chemical aftertaste - not that I'm going to be gobbling bottles of lube, or anything. I still wouldn't recommend ingesting it. It's still good to know, though, because when things get hot and heavy you never know if you're going to end up with lube in your mouth.

It doesn't drip, although it will run very slowly over a period of time. It will pretty much stay put wherever you apply it to your toy without dripping all over the place. It stays slick for a long time. When I put it on my hand to make sure it didn't cause an allergic reaction or rash, it slowly absorbed into the skin after a while. It left my skin very smooth and soft, so I assume it does the same for my butt. It didn't cause a rash or any itching on my skin, anus, or genitals. Unlike many other water-based lubes, it did not get sticky. It wipes off of skin and toys easily.

Packaging:

This lube came in a clear plastic bag that was tied closed with a knot. I assume this is in case the bottle leaks while in transit. The bottle didn't leak, though, so no issues there. The bottle had a foil safety seal which I had to remove. I appreciate that - it means I know that nobody has been tampering with my lube!

The lube comes in a simple squeeze bottle with a snap top. The bottle has a picture of a starfish with the words ANAL LUBE in large letters on the label. For this reason, it's not discreet. The label can be easily removed, if you're worried that people will see the big ol' bottle of anal lube you accidentally left out on your nightstand.

My only complaint with the bottle is that I don't like snap tops for lube bottles because the lube always somehow ends up getting all over the bottle. A little pump top or nozzle would be nice for something like this. I'd also be concerned about traveling with it because of the risk that the snap top will pop open and I'll arrive at my destination with a well-lubricated suitcase.

I tested this lube with silicone, plastic and glass toys. It worked wonderfully on all of them. It's delightfully slick without any of the stickiness issues that other water-based lubes I've tried have had. I didn't have to keep stopping to reapply it, and it didn't cause the irritating burning sensation that other lubes I've tried for anal play have caused. I was able to get a good 20 minutes of play out of my first application, whereas normally by then I've gone through several squirts of lube. I noticed that I definitely needed to use far less of it than I normally have to use of other water-based lubes, enough for me to think that it could save me some money.

As far as it "feeling like silicone lube", I don't generally use silicone lube since my toys are mostly silicone, so I can't compare it to silicone lube at the moment. I will say that it stays nice and slick for a long time and does not leave a nasty residue. It did not stain my cotton sheets or comforter, which is an issue I've had with other lubes in the past.

I've barely made a dent in this bottle because you honestly don't NEED a lot of this. I use it regularly, but even a squirt or two is enough where, with other water-based lubes, I have to use a ton. And I have yet to find a toy it's not compatible with.
