I have not experienced a whole lot with flavored lubes in the past so testing a lube from the Sliquid Swirl line, the flavored line, would prove interesting. I was so excited to try out my Sliquid Swirl Strawberry Pomegranate lube as soon as it arrived. As I opened the cap I was hit by a wonderful smell and what a yummy subtle taste! No questions this was going to be a lip-smacking round of cunnilingus and blow job. And the best is yet to come; because this products is free of nasty ingredients, sugar free and 100%vegan you can also use this lube for vaginal, or anal use, making it very versatile.

Sliquid currently offers six flavors: Cherry Vanilla, Green Apple Tart, Blue Raspberry, Pina Colada, Pink Lemonade and Strawberry Pomegranate. I received the Strawberry Pomegranate flavor and, as mentioned before, I found the smell very natural yet not to overpowering. The company claims the products are only lightly flavored to enhance taste, not to mask the natural taste of what you are licking. My finger taste test, a drop on my finger, revealed a very subtle yet present taste without any nasty aftertaste. I mostly tasted strawberries.

The Sliquid Swirl is compatible with all toys and condoms. It is water-based, will not stain, and is hypoallergenic. Plus this lube is sugar-free and glycerin-free so the risk of yeast infections is reduced. The sweetness usually achieved with sugar is substituted with aspartame. It is also paraben-free, gluten-free, L-Arginine free, petro- chemical free and non-toxic. The ingredients listed are: Purified Water, Plant Cellulose (from Cotton), Cyamopsis (Guar Conditioners), Aspartame, Natural Flavoring, Potassium Sorbate.

The lube comes in a 4.2 ounce bottle with a flip top style lid. This clear lube has the consistency of corn syrup. It is not sticky, thick and unpleasant to handle but I did find it did dry up faster then my usual favorite lube. However you do not need much in the first place to get things in prime gliding shape and when it does dry up add a few drops of water or saliva to reactivated the lube. After a while for penetration we did need to reapply a little bit more. Clean up is pretty simple since it is a water based lube but with the scent I felt the need for a wash cloth and a little soap.

Trying out the Sliquid Swirl Strawberry Pomegranate opened a door for me when it comes to flavored lubes. I always shied away from them because of sugar content and effects on my natural flora. For oral it definitely was a nice light added touch to the taste for both of us. And I feel confident using it for any kind of penetrative sex since it is all natural and vegan friendly. Sliquid has won me once again with this terrific lube.

I still love it. I buy it regularly for some time. It has all the qualities I look for in a lube plus a nice but not overpowering smell...even the man likes the smell.
