When I first started looking into anal play I was tentative as to what toys to get. When I started reading reviews and understanding what is all encompassed in male anal stimulation it dawned on me that I was missing a key ingredient. One great item that is really needed during any research and purchase of anal toys is the purchase of a good lubricant.

I looked at a lot of different lubes, but Uranus really caught my eye. I think that, at first, it was the design of the bottle that drew me towards it, but after reading other reviews I was hooked. Even though it's sold as an anal lube, it can be used for a variety for purposes. Vaginal sex, vaginal toys, masturbation, and almost anything you can think of works like a charm with Uranus. When it comes to toys there're no issues that arise with materials and the lube due to the fact that it's water based. Both silicon toys and latex condoms, or latex fetish wear, will experience no wear or tear from accidental spillage. Also, if your play gets a little splashy there's no problem as the lube doesn't have a distinct taste or smell and won't harm anyone if accidentally, or purposefully, swallowed. Watch out, however, as the product does contain Glycerin which can be an irritant for some. As for cleaning up any spills, it's easy to wipe up with any cloth or sex wipe. As for hands, and other parts of the body, Uranus cleans up extremely well with soap and water. The product is clear and nonstaining, so it's safe to be a little wild in the bed if that's how you enjoy sex.

When it comes to anal usage, Uranus performs extremely well. When performing any sort of anal stimulation it's imperative to have a lot of lubricant, as there's no natural fluids that assist insertion. This lube is thick enough to keep everything smooth from beginning to end and it doesn't run too quickly to massage into the right places. If you're playing for a long time, it might be prudent to use several applications of lube, especially when moving up in size for anal play. Fast anal sex may also reduce the slipperiness of the anus with the lubricant over time but with the larger size of the Uranus product you won't run out. As we move towards pegging with a larger strap-on, I'm confident that Uranus will continue to perform well. The only downside to the thickness of the lube is that it can become a bit tacky over time if not used internally, so be ready to re-apply more often if using this externally.

As stated before, the bottle was what drew me to Uranus in the first place. While it's not something you can leave out when guests are around it is a very nice looking package. The bottle has a nonleaking top, so tossing the bottle aside after use is okay. While I would still store it upright for long periods of time, it's a relief to know that it won't leak if knocked over during sex.

The first time I used Uranus was with a slim anal trainer, part of a set of three, and I was extremely nervous about fitting any of them in my ass. My wife lubed up my asshole, it was a bit cool to the touch at the time, but warmed up very quickly with my body heat, and slowly inserted the toy. After the first few push and pull out of my ass I was already very happy with the lube; I felt no irritation or uncomfortableness in my anus even as we moved up to the second size. By the time we were 15 minutes into it, my wife was pegging me with the trainer and it was still as smooth and comfortable as when we first started. I'll always look to Uranus for my anal lube needs, as this first time really left an awesome impression on me!
