I am not sure exactly what I was thinking when I ordered this lube. Did I take reviews seriously when they said the little beads felt gritty? No, of course not. And do they feel gritty? Why yes, yes they do. They do not pop! To get them to break open, I actually have to smash them between my fingernails. After sex is over, I have to actually search for little red beads and pick them off of myself.

Maybe the little plastic feeling beads would be tolerable if this “warming lube|Climax bursts warming - Lubricant by Topco” actually got warm, but it doesn’t, so it isn’t. I swear I squirted a quarter of the bottle onto myself trying to get some sensation from it. Waiting didn’t do any good, blowing didn’t do any good, rubbing didn’t do any good unless I rubbed to hard and fast that I should have started a fire on my genitals, and then it was only slight heat from friction and nothing from the lube. I tried this on my husband, and his response was “maybe I sort of felt a slight warming sensation.”

So, the texture is horrid and it doesn’t warm, but what about using this as a lube? Well, I have never used an oil based lube|Lubricants Forum before, but KY works about as well as this stuff. I found it was greasy feeling, and oddly enough sticky too. It seemed to get kinda gummy and gross feeling after about 10 minutes or so. Sex would have been very uncomfortable if my natural lube hadn’t come through for me and wet the way.

I am wondering if this lube does anything for anyone. I don’t see anything in the ingredients that would make it do anything special.

Propylene glycol, Glyceryl polymethacrylate, PEG-8, Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, Tocopheryl acetate, Retinyl palmitate, Agar, Red 30

I am not an expert, but I don’t understand exactly what would make this lube get warm? Maybe this is why it didn’t get warm; perhaps they just forgot an ingredient?

I have almost convinced myself to try this lube a couple times, but in the end I always remember those first couple attempts and decide against it. I finally tossed the bottle in the trash. If nothing else, it being there was taking up room that could be used by lubes I don't hate. A warming lube|Sliquid sizzle that I do like is the Sliquid Sizzle, although it can become pretty intense if too much is used. It is good, but not perfect. I am still on a quest to find the perfect warming lube, and I will continue to search until I've tried everything available, or else I find one that really is perfect.
