I have only used this lube in the vagina and around the clitoris, on various toys and during sex, so my review will be just about those uses. I have not used it anally.

Sliquid Sea comes in a cute little bottle that is shorter than the length of my hand, and therefore easy to hide or to carry around in a purse. You could also hide it with some success in plain sight, as the only words on the bottle that reveal its true purpose are "natural intimate lubricant" and these are small. If the bottle were sitting among other bottles on the bathroom counter, guests might not look closely enough to realize anything.

The lube itself is entirely clear and a little bit gloppy, what I would refer to as mildly thick or semi-thick. When squeezed out onto a finger or toy, it stays put entirely or only slowly runs down, slowly enough that getting the toy or finger inside fast enough shouldn't be a problem. It does not stain sheets or clothing, but it does absorb into them on contact. I haven't had problems with noticeable wet spots of lube on my sheets if I leave a lube-coated toy sitting there, because the sheet will kind of suck in the lube and there really isn't any left smeared on top.

I did the arm test, where I squeezed out a small glob onto my arm and rubbed in circular motions in the same spot until the lube stopped working. It took about three minutes for there to be a slight "draggy" sensation under my finger instead of pure slipperiness, but this was partly because of lube getting pushed to the side rather than because of it drying out. Altogether, it took about four minutes to start feeling actually dry and then very quickly after the "dry" feeling first started, the lube seemed to be entirely gone, with almost no feeling of a residue. Looking, it seemed as if nothing was there.

However, a slight re-application of water brought back the slipperiness full-force and now, for the first time, there was something other than clearness: a very thin, barely visible, white froth. The slipperiness persisted for a long time with several re-applications of water.

From the arm test and from my experiences, I can say that Sliquid Sea is best for an area where natural body moisture "recharges" it and where it can't be rubbed away onto adjacent skin. The vagina is a perfect environment for it, being a pocket that Sliquid Sea can't easily escape from and having its own self-replenishing moisture. It seems to last quite a while in the vagina and I rarely need to re-apply during a session.

When I use Sliquid Sea outside my vagina around my clitoris (I hate dry stimulation on my clitoris so I lube it) I must re-apply every so often. I believe this is partly because of the lube getting rubbed away from the target onto adjacent skin and partly because the clitoris isn't producing its own moisture like the vagina does. Still, I apply there less frequently than with some other lubes, and sometimes get through an entire session with only one application of Sliquid Sea to my clit.

I have not had my Sliquid Sea for long, but I am already thinking that it is likely to displace Carrageenan All Natural to become my favorite lube of all time.

A few years ago, my vagina became quite sensitive to lubes, and lubes that I had had no problem with for years suddenly started irritating my vagina enormously during use and also giving me a yeast infection which would show up a day or two after use, every single time. I went through so many lubes looking for something that didn't do this, but nearly everything both irritated me and gave me a yeast infection.

Sliquid Sea is only the second lube I've located that neither irritates me nor gives a yeast infection. I was apprehensive at my first use of the product, but it felt good, soothing and slippery, and didn't have the slightest burning or itching sensation. So far, so good. And then I waited to see if a yeast infection would show up. It didn't. I used Sliquid Sea in other sessions and still no yeast infections at all.

I could jump for joy just at this much, but the other characteristics of the lube endeared me to it as well.

The only problem I have with it is how the bottle dispenses. It tends to deposit a big air bubble in the center of each glob it dispenses. It's not a big deal, but when it happens it can seem as if I've got more air than lube in that particular glob and I have to squeeze out another to get the normal amount of one glob.

I am excited about Sliquid Sea's inclusion of carrageenan, a seaweed, as an ingredient. Both the lubes I can tolerate have it, and it is reputed to be very good for one's vagina. I think I can just barely detect it (or perhaps the other seaweed ingredients) in Sliquid Sea's taste. This is an almost tasteless lube, but there is the tiniest hint of a sea/seaweed type of taste in it. When licking it, there is nothing unpleasant for my tongue or taste buds, it is almost a "nothing" taste and the texture is pleasing as well. I haven't used it as an oral lube, but I doubt it would be a problem to lick, and saliva would keep it constantly re-activated.

As to clean-up, I've never had to do it. Sliquid Sea dries without leaving a residue on the skin, or the residue is so mild that it's almost imperceptible. It doesn't drip out of my vagina after sex like some lubes do. It absorbs into cloth and doesn't leave wet spots on my bed. I do clean it off my toys, but this is because I make a habit of always cleaning my toys after use.

When I wrote the review, this was my favorite lube of all time, and it still is. My feelings about it have only gotten fonder.

I particularly like the non-drippy, somewhat thick feeling of the lube and the knowledge that I can spread it on a toy and not worry about having it drip off before I can apply/insert the toy.

The only thing that has changed since the original review is that I have used it for some mild anal toy-play, with small toys.

With that use, it has performed well and I haven't needed to re-apply often, but I don't have much experience in that realm, so I don't have much to compare it to. I still have no idea how it would perform with anal sex.
