Lelo Personal Moisturizer is worth every penny!
If you’ve been on the hunt for a good water based lube, one that maintains its consistency, mixes well with the bodies natural fluids, is latex compatible, doesn’t get sticky or tacky and feels slippery smooth, all while being free of both glycerin and parabens, Lelo’s Personal Moisturizer (a.k.a Lube) is definitely a decent option worth trying.

Pros
stays slippery, odorless, affordable
Cons
horrible taste
As with all of the products Lelo makes the packaging is sleek, sophisticated, respectful and very high end. The black rectangular box has nothing on it that’s rude, tacky or inappropriate, instead using carefully chosen wording like “comfort of intimate activities”, “sensual experience” and “your intimate areas”. If only more companies would follow suit and adopt such a discreet and non embarrassing choice of wording*.
One side of the packaging features an image of the lubricant container and a small paragraph beneath it that outlines the benefits and features, with the other side showing nothing but the company’s website written in metallic silver print. The back of the box has the directions, ingredients and warnings all written in 5 different languages (English, French, Dutch, Spanish and Italian).
Regardless of the care taken in creating the box, keep in mind that it’s just something you’ll likely toss into the recycling container.
Each shiny black tube contains 75 ml of the clear water based liquid that glides on smooth, mixing with the bodies natural lubrication very well. Because it’s glycerine free it lasts for quite some time and maintains it’s slippery feel, becoming neither sticky nor tacky with extended use. On that note, the consistency is gel like and somewhat thick so a little goes a very long way. While it is very slick it’s not greasy, oily, slimy or goopy (like many other lesser quality lubes), it doesn’t burn, sting or itch and absorbs into the skin leaving you feeling soft and supple, rather than coated in product.
*that last bit is for all of you that have sex and pass out, not bothering to clean up after the fun is over, only to wake up and feel a mess. Don’t blush, we’ve all been there.
For the most part it’s unscented, though it does have a slight dish soap smell that’s a mixture of white Elmer’s glue and lemons. Maybe my nose is busted, but that’s the scent I get. By no means is it highly chemical, sour, obnoxious or over powering. It’s just a light whiff, that’s it.
Whether it’s metal, glass, wood, a high quality silicone or any other type of material this lube is compatible with all types of intimate accessories, so feel free to use it with your favorite products.

Experience
With the exception of one issue there really wasn’t anything I disliked about the product. As for the issue – there is no way to say this nicely so I’m just going to say it – it tastes horrible!! If you’re thinking of having oral sex or using dental dams I highly suggest you invest in a small bottle or packet size of a good flavored lube. Trust me on this one. It’s bad, really bad.
Follow-up commentary
1 month after original review
Even though I still like this lube I wouldn't say it's my 'go to' lube as I find myself reaching for my trusted System Jo or Sliquid lubes. That isn't to say it's not great - because it definitely is - maybe I'm just a creature of habit, or maybe it's that there's still quite a bit left in my other bottles and I feel no need to rush and use the Lelo Personal Moisturizer. Having said that, I'm sure that once my System Jo is done this will be the next lube I go to.

i love how all your recent reviews are about discreet purchases lol thanks for another great review

Great review! Hmm another bad tasting lube I would love this one because Leo is well Lelo and the bottle is fantastic but a bad taste is a huge no no with me. My lubes don't have to be delicious but they have to be at least neutral.

@LingaLoo I wish it didn't have a taste or was slightly sweet like many of the SystemJo or Sliquid products - it really is horrible. *sad face*
