Pjur Aqua is a water-based lube for those times when you are using a silicone toy or a silicone barrier method of birth control. I have used many water-based lubes in the past and I have to say this is very similar to cheaper versions. My husband and I LOVE Pjur's Eros silicone-based lube but we started to invest in some more expensive silicone toys and needed a water-based lube to go with them. We also started using a diaphragm so we needed a water-based lube for that as well.

Pjur Aqua is not very thick. It is the consistency of warm syrup. Like most water-based lubes it will dry up and need to be reapplied. The main difference we noticed with Pjur's water-based lube and some cheaper versions is that this one doesn't get sticky. When it needs to be reapplied it's because it has soaked into the skin or it's dried up. When it dries up it gets a sort of crusty feeling, it's hard to explain. It also has no scent!

My husband and I were definitely spoiled by our silicone based lube and were frustrated by having to reapply this one so often but it comes with the territory of water-based lubes. Also, beware if you have a fan in the room where you are using this lube, it will dry up in no time! The only time this lube needs to be reapplied to my husband's penis is if he pulls out, otherwise it stays slick. I also use it on my clit for my vibrator and it needs to reapplied at least 3 times in 40 minute period.

We also disliked the similarity of the bottles between the Pjur Eros silicone lube and the Aqua. We keep all of our toys and lube in one drawer and because we use silicone toys and I have a silicone diaphragm we have to be extra careful to use the right lube. We have to look for the blue stripe to be sure we've got the right one which can be hard to see in low light. This, of course, is only a problem if you are in the same situation as we are.

The bottle has a twist off top and a hole where the lube comes out. You just have to tip it over and give a little squeeze to get the lube to pour out. It can be messy if you aren't careful.

Cleaning is super easy! You can simply wipe this off with water and soap and it will come off. I have never tasted this lube so I can't comment on that.

If you don't mind spending the extra money for the Pjur brand then I recommend this lube. If you don't care about the brand then you'd be better with something cheaper.
