Slippery
stuff is a water-based lubricant that comes in
two varieties: original liquid and newer gel formula.
Its interesting to note, Slippery Stuff
was developed by a diver looking for an easier
way to get in and out of his wetsuits.
Ingredients:
Deionized water
Polyoxyethylene
Methylparaben
Sodium carboner
Packaging
and Appearance:
Slippery Stuff comes in a huge variety of size
of containers, including a gallon dispenser. Yes,
I said a gallon! They have also released it in
a new bottle that glows in the dark. (I hasten
to add here that it is only the bottle and not
the lube that glows -)) I dont think even
I could stomach glow in the dark lube - LOL.
The
original formula has a red label while the gel
is labeled with blue. The labels are clear and
list ingredients clearly.
Texture
and Smoothness:
As with many other lubricants this is translucent
when poured or in the case of the gel formula
squeezed from the bottle. I preferred the gel
formula as it has a richer texture than the original.
It actually holds it's shape when poured onto
a saucer, but as soon as it was between my fingers,
the texture became more watery. It did suffer
a little from the mozzarella cheese stringiness
that many lubes do, but unlike many others the
spiders it created where almost magically pulled
back into the main body of the lube, making it
a lot less messy.
Taste & Smell Test:
Slippery Stuff had no taste or smell to it, which
is a plus if you enjoy oral as part of foreplay.
Stain
Test:
Passed with flying colors. No stain after rubbing
in and laundering on satin or cotton.
Solo
Flight Test:
I actually liked Slippery Stuff when it came to
toy play. As with all water-based lubes it was
safe to use on all my toys and it did feel good.
My main complaint was that it didn't last as long
as some of the lubes I've used in the past. It
lasted longer when I played with my glass toys
than with any other type of material, but that
I suspect was in part due to the fact that glass
is non-porous. On the plus side it wasn't sticky,
instead it seemed to just evaporate when I applied
friction, the exception to that was surprisingly
when I played with some anal toys.
When
I let my fingers do the walking though I found
that Slippery Stuff was a different animal. It
had a light texture, which allowed me to still
feel what I was doing. As long as I used a light
stroke the lube lasted well and was just enough
to make things nice without being to slippery.
Dual
Flight Test:
I had high hopes for Slippery Stuff when it came
to partner play, but was ultimately disappointed
when it came to giving Hubby a hand job as foreplay.
The gel just didn't last long enough and I ended
up having to keep pouting it on as it was absorbed
pretty quickly. Like Oliver, he kept asking for
more to keep that slippery feeling that makes
hand jobs so enjoyable.
We
encountered the same problem when it came to getting
more intimate. It was slippery to begin with,
but soon we needed more, which didn't make it
especially compatible with longer bouts of lovemaking.
Anal
was where Slippery Stuff came into it's own. Unlike
with vaginal play it lasted well and we both agreed
it was one of the best we had come across for
this type of play. It wasn't messy by any means,
just pleasant, and it provided just enough lubrication
so that things were comfortable without getting
too slippery.
Conclusion:
Slippery stuff proved to be something of a mixed
bag for us. When it came to any type of play that
involved a lot of friction, this was just too
easily absorbed and having to keep applying it
was a major pain, as it stopped the flow of things.
Clean
up was easy. To be honest, there wasn't anything
more than a quick wipe needed since most of it
had already disappeared. So while Slippery Stuff
was not our favorite lube, it still features in
our solo and anal play since these were the two
areas that this lube excelled in.
