[Supplies] Sliquid Satin Silicone Lubricant

Now let’s talk about silicone lube. As many of you already know, silicone lube is just about the slipperiest stuff on the planet, and even though you can’t use it with silicone toys (the silicones bond together and ruin the toy — trust me on this), it’s awesome for other materials (say, oh, that glass butt-plug I was just going on about), for regular ol’ in-and-out sex, for vaginal dryness (which happens not only in menopausal women, but also after pregnancy and sometimes certain times of the month), or even to shave your legs with it (no kidding!).

But what’s the downside, you ask? Well, most silicone lubes are, to put it delicately, a bitch to clean up. Silicone is not water-soluble, and when your lube has a very high silicone content, that means it’s not easy to clean. Thank goodness someone thought of a hybrid formula! Sliquid Satin Silicone Lubricant (yes, the name on the bottle is slightly different, but we changed it to avoid confusion with our best-selling Liquid Silk) is a glycerine-free lube that is mostly a water-based formula, but with 12% high grade silicone blended in to create a solution that stays super-slick and silky without the pain of clean up of other silicone lubes. With a texture that is more lotion than liquid (another reason other silicone lubes are hard to clean up and get every-darn-where), it stays where you put it and is easier to apply. Latex friendly, hypoallergenic, and made by women who understand that lube should never cause yeast infections or UTIs, this water-based silicone lube is a welcome twist in the world of lubes.
