I've read some really decent reviews on Gun Oil H2O so I had high hopes. Around here we're always looking for good water based lubes. Unfortunately, I was disappointed.

Gun oil is decently thick, and contains lots of natural ingredients like guarana and ginseng. It's glycerin free, which is always a plus. It's got aspartame tucked in it as well, so that sort of cancels out the pluses. A lot of folks have issues with aspartame reactions.

The lube is pretty much odorless, but it's slightly bitter and odd tasting; which is likely why they added the aspartame, to negate some of that. I'm certainly not going to be using this for blow jobs any time soon.

The packaging is nice. Taylor actually likes it, as opposed to some of the more girly stuff which makes sense, as it's marketed towards men. He's used it with his sleeves and Fleshlight and, for that purpose, it seems to work fine. It's ok. Decent. Fair. It doesn't stand out, but it's not the worst he's jerked off with. However...

For penetrative sex, or my masturbation (either with fingers or toys), it pretty well sucks. I don't like the way water-based lubes feel "gel like". I don't like the feeling of gooping it on, and having this mess of obviously foreign goo all over my vulva. And with Gun Oil, you need to use a pretty good amount. If you don't, it almost immediately gets sticky and dry. (Seventeen circular rubs on the back of my hand. That's my little test. Seventeen circles and it was already feeling icky).

I use lube cuz I'm an old broad, who doesn't make enough of my own, so having to reapply or add water just sort of sucks. With a good water based lube, I don't have to do that; it lasts long enough that my body catches up. With Gun Oil, I was constantly adding more.

At twenty dollars, for 8 oz., I find this to be a major fail. The flip top cap is nice. The bottle is manly. It's okay for him, but it sucks for me. I'd rather buy something that works for us both.

Still not overly fond of this lube, though Taylor will use it with his strokers. For me, it just gets too sticky and flaky. It makes me wonder if I got a bad bottle, because it normally gets overwhelmingly good reviews. Odd. Odd, odd, odd.
