Anal activists, pull down your picket lines! Finally, a more natural, long-lasting, super slick, super thick lubricant perfect for anal. Probe's Thick and Rich lube is luxurious and long-lasting enough to stand up to the test of back door play without needing frequent reapplication.

Due to the vegetable glycerin content, if you're prone to yeast infections, you may want to steer clear of this lube for vaginal sex. Glycerin provides a sugary food for yeast and can cause that flora to grow to an unhealthy number in your delicately balanced vaginal environment. But if you've never had issues with glycerin before, this lube is formulated to emulate your own natural lubrication, and your search for the perfect lube ends here.

Probe Thick and Rich is formulated with simple ingredients like purified water, vegetable glycerin, and grapefruit seed extract as a preservative. Polyethylene oxide is also used as a thickener.

This water based lube is completely compatible with all kinds of condoms, and with any type of toy. It is odorless, tasteless, non-staining, and non-toxic. So if you add this lube to your playtime, subtract a condom, and end up with a little bugger... there will be no phone calls to poison control should the toddler eat up mommy and daddy's nummy lube! That's always a bonus.

The most important factor in a lube (after simple, natural ingredients for your sensitive areas, of course!) is what I like to call 'slickiness'. Probe Thick and Rich is totally slick! When I used it for giving my beau a hand job, we didn't need to reapply or add spit more than once for the entire 20 minute session.


Stringy!

The lube pours out easily, and has the consistency of a thick oil. It is not incredibly runny. The texture is also not 'thick' enough to make me think of gel or jelly, but rather more luxurious in feel. This love juice is also pretty 'stringy' in that it will stick between your fingers and create little string ladders, just as my own girl juice will do in those times when I'm very horned up.

It will spread around about as easily as an oil, without leaving the greasy aftermath. Probe made a lube that feels so great. It's super luxurious!


Pours on thick enough.


After a bit of rubbing... pretty slick!


After alot of vigorous rubbing, we're still slicked up.

Surprisingly, despite the grapefruit seed extract, there is really no taste or smell to this. This stuff is PH neutral, flavor neutral, and scent neutral. This means it's not going to interfere with your own flavor and scent, leaving you with nothing but your own sexy goodness, amped up for a super sexy experience.

My favorite feature of this lube is how anal-friendly it is. Other lubes require reapplication just after entry, due to the fact that it is a bit difficult to get lube deep 'in' there as it seems to get 'scraped off' a bit by the tight walls of the cave! Improper lubrication during anal can lead to pain, tearing, bleeding, and risk of infection. It's so important to have a really slick, thick lube for back door lovin'. I found the need for reapplication diminished entirely with this lube.

Cleanup? What cleanup? It dries just barely tacky, hardly enough to notice at first, and then dissipates completely. It takes a moment to dry up, and if you'd like it to go away, a simple wipe with a tissue or soap and water will do the trick. It's water based, so it's not going to stain your clothes or sheets. It will go away when you ask it to--it's just that polite.

The single handed flip-cap top used here is my favorite. It's the easiest to use during action. The bottle was a little big to use one handed during sex, but I don't mind. For this price, I was grateful to get so much lube! The generous 8.5 ml bottle will last me at least a year.

You can travel with this with no worries, though if you're flying, be sure to place it in a smaller container to meet airline regulations. Also be sure to pack it in a plastic or ziplock baggie, because once you go up, the lube will come out! I've had this happen so sadly, too many times.

The packaging isn't super discreet, but also not flashing 'lubricant!' Honestly it looks like an old school beauty creme. The design is a pretty 1990's, but charming enough in its own right.

Packed upright in an overnight bag, the bottle should be suitable for traveling (though if flying, you will need to dispense a smaller amount in a different container to meet airline regulations). As when traveling with any gel or liquid product, it would be wise to enclose the bottle inside a plastic Ziploc bag to guard against any accidental spills dripping onto clothing or other items.

Purified Water: The purpose of water in personal care products is primarily that of a solvent to dissolve ingredients that deliver benefits to the skin. It is also used to formulate emulsions of water and oil components which, combined together, create creams and lotions. Only toxin-, pollutant-, and microbe-free water is used in the manufacturing of personal care products.

Glycerin (also known as glycerol): A sugar alcohol that is a component of all animal and vegetable fats/oils (and which can also be synthesized), glycerin is used in personal care products as a humectant and protectant skin conditioner, as well as to decrease viscosity.

Though (unfortunately) there have been no studies to support the claim, glycerin is believed to provoke yeast infections in women who are prone to them. This makes sense, given that yeast -- which are part of the body's natural flora -- are present in the vagina and feed off of sugar.

I'm pretty excited to have found this lube. I'm throwing away my old anal lubes now! They either had to be reapplied often, or burned, or just didn't make me wet enough. Anal sex now has a new appeal to me that it simply couldn't have before, when the lube just wasn't right.
