K-Y jelly is a water based lube, but it does contain glycerin and parabens. It is a hypoallergenic product. It can be used for toy play, anal sex, vaginal sex, and masturbation. It does have some ingredients that could upset the flora of some women and cause yeast infections. I've never had any problems and I have a very sensitive pussy. This lube is great for anal, because it is thicker than most lubes, but it does dry out rather quickly. If you use this lube for anal, make sure you reapply it rather often. The lube comes in a squeeze bottle. With the lube being a "jelly," it is easy to dispense. This lube is water based, so it doesn't work too well in water, such as the bath/shower. If you want to use lube in these environments, I would suggest using something else.

The lube doesn't really have a smell. To me, it kinda smells like a sterile environment. It doesn't taste bad and it actually has a sort of sweet taste to it. My husband prefers the taste of this lube over most lubes on the market. I don't like flavored lubes, so this one is one of my favorites for that reason. The lube is slick, but it takes little time to thin out and actually become slick, so make sure you apply it all over what you are going to insert.

This lube is easy to clean off. It doesn't leave you extremely sticky afterwards. There are times during PIV that the lube with roll into little balls and get stuck to the base of the penis. If the man is extremely hairy down there, it could cause pain from the little balls pulling. So, if your guy is super sensitive about things like this, I would get something else that isn't a "jelly" type of lube.

For me and my husband, this lube is still one of our go-to lubes when we run out of our favorite lube. It's great for the spur-of-the-moment when there is nothing else around.
