Customer Reviews of AstroGlide Water-Based Lubricant - 5oz
Customer Review: Not the Best
Summary: 2 Stars
I tried Astroglide because it seems to be the most popular lubricant on the market. However, I can't really figure out why, as it is my least favorite of the ones I have tried.
The liquid is thin, extremely messy, and has a tendency to run all over the place. The runniness and ensuing mess were so bad that it sort of became an in-joke between me and my partner. It's also very easy to get too much unintentionally. When you put it where you want it, it won't stay put unless you use your entire hand to spread it on the surface, so your choice is to dribble on the sheets or be left with a very messy hand.
The lubricant itself doesn't seem to last very long and reapplication is usually necessary. I personally didn't think it felt as good as other products, as it seemed less slippery.
In addition, this product has ruined my very nice 400-count cotton sheets. There are permanent lube stains now that refuse to wash out. I realize that there is some risk of staining with lubricants, but the fact that it's water-based *and* impossible to avoid some dripping on the sheets makes this issue even more frustrating to me.
If I can help it, I will never buy Astroglide again. Boo Astroglide!
I am, however, very pleased with the next product we tried, Durex Play More Lubricants - Pleasure Enhancing, 3.38 oz. It, too, is water-based, so it is safe to use with condoms. The product is thicker, meaning it doesn't run like crazy, and the bottle has a pump which makes it less messy and easier to get just the right amount.
Customer Review: Doesn't last long
Summary: 2 Stars
Unless you're the type of guy who only needs a few minutes, you'd be better off with liquid silk or maximus. Astroglide starts to get sticky pretty quick. Really annoying for a marathon 30 minute++ session with your sweetie.Customer Review: better than nothing
Summary: 1 Stars
I really am glad to see so many lubricants readily available on the market, Astroglide is one that can be found almost anywhere and at a very reasonable price.
It's thick, a bit much in my opinion, but it holds up. The big issue that I have is that it must be thoroughly washed off afterwards. I have sensitivity to so many things and even at first I had no problem, but it developed and can cause an itching and burning until compltetly rinsed off - sometimes that can be a hassle. Just a warning. Even if it is water based, there can be other chemicals or ingredients that a person can develop a sensitivity to.
