Sliquid Silk is obviously a tribute to my favorite silicone/water based lubricant, Liquid Silk. It has a similar appearance, but none of the potentially problematic parabens that keep some people from enjoying Liquid Silk. They are made by different companies, so it's kind of miraculous that they haven't been sued for creating such a similar product with a similar name!

First off, this lube looks like cum. It's creamy white, and even thicker than Liquid silk, almost a little clumpy. This definitely makes for some fun visuals when you use it.

The ingredients are as follows:
Purified spring water, Plant Cellulose (from cotton), isopropyl palmitate, polysorbate 20, dimethicone, emollient ester, Potassium Sorbate.

BTW, the ingredients listed EF product page is not consistent with what my bottle says. I have listed the ingredients as they appear on my product.

This lube is hypoallergenic and should be safe for most bodies, condom-compatible, and safe for most toys. This is a hybrid lube (Dimethicone is silicone) so you may want to do a patch test on a silicone toy, but I have not have any troubles with unwanted interactions. Because it's thick, and has a silicone component, it works fairly well for anal as well as vaginal sex.

The taste is slightly bitter, but almost tasteless compared to Liquid Silk, which is sweeter and more bitter. It's got a very faint sort of "white glue" smell to it.

The main difference I experienced between this product and Liquid Silk is that it's a little thicker, clumpier, and tackier. It can feel a bit sticky with use, and doesn't revive with water as well as Liquid Silk does. When I rubbed both into my skin, the Sliquid version dried with a gummy residue, while original version absorbed completely. This is the downside of many hypoallergenic lubes, I've found- they don't always perform as well as the traditional formulas. I personally prefer the original Liquid Silk, but this is a perfectly good alternative for people with sensitivities.

One major advantage of this product is that 4.2oz bottle has a click-top lid that is very easy to use, and it's small enough to be portable for day to day use. (Too big for an airplane, but would work anywhere else).

In closing- this is not a perfect substitute for Liquid Silk, but it's worth a try if you're worried about parabens.

I confess I went ahead and bought another bottle of Liquid Silk because this just can't replace it for bedside use. However, I am keeping this bottle in my toy bag that's always ready to go, since I think it's a good enough lube for general use- just not my favorite.
