Wicked Aqua is an all-purpose, water based lube that works great for all applications; for vaginal, anal, toy play, solo play, just about anything you could dream up. I have tried so many different kinds of lubes over the years, and this is one of the best I have found. Even better, my partner loves it too! Aqua has become my “go to” lube. I only wish it came in a larger size!

I have fairly sensitive skin and trying out new lubes has always been a crapshoot, so I was quite pleased to find Aqua worked so well. Certain other lubes have caused unpleasant reactions, so naturally I’m hesitant when trying different products. After using this lube, I had no irritation or painful reactions.

Aqua bills itself as fragrance free and paraben free. It is also infused with aloe and vitamin E, which acts as a moisturizer. Those looking for a more ‘eco-friendly’ product will be happy to hear that this lube is considered vegan, meaning the product was not tested on animals, nor does it contain animal products.

Unfortunately it still contains glycerin as an ingredient, which is known to anything to encourage yeast infections or UTI's in some women. I haven’t had a problem with this, but others who are sensitive to this sort of thing should take note.



Ingredients Include:

Water, Propylene Glycol, Glycerin, Tocopheryl Acetate, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe) Leaf Juice, Olea Europaea (Olive) Leaf Extract, Cellulose Gum, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Tetrasodium EDTA, Citric Acid, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate.

The lube itself is clear and the texture is pleasant, kind of silky to the touch. It feels more like a lotion or moisturizer, most likely because of the added aloe vera and vitamin e. It rinses off with water, but also absorbs into the skin quite easily.

It is thin without being runny, and doesn't leave a greasy feeling like some other lubes I’ve tried. A little goes a long way, so I find my little 2 oz. bottle ended up lasting quite a while. I feel a good lube should be as natural as possible. Compared to other water-based lubes I've used, it really excels in that category. The consistency is very similar to the body’s natural fluids. I find that it doesn't get tacky like some other lubes, and dries without leaving any stickiness or residue behind.

Aqua is fragrance free. If there is one, I don’t notice it.

If I had to list a con, it would say the taste. I only tried a little bit of it, but it was enough to make me never want to get it near my mouth again. It has a really harsh chemical taste and an unpleasant aftertaste that lingers, making oral a tad off- putting. I’m not sure if this product is safe for consumption, but I definitely wouldn't recommend ingesting it either way.

Many water based lubes seem to diminish partway through the session, but I found that with this lube, I only have to reapply once - if ever. One small pump, or a dime-sized amount, is all I needed. The consistency is thin enough to ease friction and provide a slick feeling without drying up too quickly.

Afterwards, it can wiped off or washed off, and the formula is non-staining, which means your clothes and bedding is safe. If you forgo clean up, that cool too. The lube absorbs into your skin, and leaves no gunk or messy residue. Personally, my skin felt softer after application.

The dispenser Aqua comes in is quite sexy and sleek, if I may so myself. The bottle itself is black and slightly translucent, with metallic silver and blue text. The text is too small to read from a distance, and there is nothing visibly marking it as a sex product, so I would say it remains fairly discreet even in public view.

The 2 oz. size is travel friendly, and fits perfectly in a purse of toiletry bag. The pump can be pushed down and locked to prevent spillage. The way the bottle is designed means it is easy to operate one handed. The pump is efficient, making it easy to get as little or as much lube as you need.

I think I have found the right lube that fits both myself and my partner’s sexual needs. It works for all kinds of intimate play. I find it cost effective, long lasting, and it is compatible with all my toys. Besides the taste issue, and the fact that it contains glycerin, this lube is practically perfect. I’d like to eventually give other products in Wicked’s line a try, but until then, I think I've found my new favorite lube.
