Lube backwards is Ebul...

I'd like to start off by announcing the first winner of our Porn Giveaway...
Drum roll please? ...no? fuck...
Anyway congrats Sergio, I'll be shipping your dvd's away today or tomorrow.

And now onto today's topic which, unless you're illiterate....which come to think of it would mean you can't read this either, you have probably guessed is lubricant. After being recommended a few different brands I've collected my findings (read: opinion) on the three of them. Here's what I found

Adam & Eve Lubricant:

The home brand from our favourite adult store! This one I have to say is a pretty big bottle especially for the price. I'm used to spending more than that for a container half that size.

In terms of using a lubricant for a toy such as the head honcho, this was an okay one. It's ranked high on the "slippery" factor if you will but depending on the intensity you will probably have to reapply at some point as it dissipates quickly. Now granted this problem won't be as apparent during a sexual experience with a woman as her natural lubrication will likely kick in. Unfortunately for male toy uses, it fell through. Overall, good for sex, decent for toys.

It's a water based lube so it will wash off easily with just regular water. What won't wash off with just water is the odd fruity smell that comes with it. I'm not sure what it is exactly but I found it a little gross. The hand I would use to apply it would keep this strong ...cherry? scent until a heavy soap-induced clean up. It's not that bad a drawback but for some like me with quite the nose, it was a tad annoying.


Pjur bodyglide:


Pjur was recommended to me by a friend who said once I tried it I would never go back to anything else. Well I'll have to disagree.
This is a silicone-based lube as such it doesn't wash off simply under water. This makes it great for underwater play. Both for toys and for intercourse this lube makes water sex that much easier. Yes it does mean it's a tad harder to wash off but nothing a little soap won't remove. This really shouldn't be an issue if water-sex was your intention in the first place.

Now this lubricant is the great white shark of lubes. It is the best in the water...but useless on dry land. On things like the Head Honcho it falls flat. It did little more than what baby oil would do. I don't recommend it for any other purpose than the one I previously established.

System Jo:


System JO's slogan is "meet your new best friend"...boy was it ever right. I originally tried the Women's lube as it was the one the missus had. I was quite please with the results.

As "slippery" than the AdamEve brand yet didn't require reapplication after a while. There was no smell to it either. Of course it wasn't created for shower/bathtub play since it's a water-based lube but this means it washes off easily.

This was tested with the head honcho masturbator, during vaginal intercourse, toy play and, unlike the other toys, tested successfully with anal play in which it was still quite good. I was actually quite surprised by this little one especially since it said "for women" on this bottle (although I link the bi-gender one in this post).

All in all the three of them are good products no doubt. The adameve one I recommend for quickies, the Pjur will go great underwater and the System Jo is the all around one.
Enjoy!
