Let’s talk about lubes. You know, lubricants? I believe the best sexual encounters depend on the right type of lube. Who wants to ruin a romantic moment with dryness, stickiness or chaffing? Not to mention, some personal lubricants can cause irritation. I know that first hand. I had always purchased mine at the grocery store, (and it was always irritating my sensitive areas!) Up until recently, I was way too embarrassed to ask questions about lube.
I overcame my shyness and made my husband accompany me into a sex shop. Yes, I felt mortified as I stood there looking at the vast assortment of sex toys. I may have blushed when I stared at the shelves lined with what looked to be hundreds of different types of lubes.
My husband and I had never been very adventurous in our sex life, but things were about to change!
The friendly young clerk came over to us and asked us what we were looking for. At first I wanted to sink into the floor, but I found my voice, and asked her what lubricant she recommended. She didn’t bat at eye when she asked if I was interested in water based, or silicone lube.I even got to test a few brands out (on my hand, of course!)
The brand that caught my eye the most (as well as my husband’s) was System Jo. System Jo seemed to be the most popular brand on the shelves of that sex shop. I was definitely intrigued because not only was the packaging pretty, it appeared they had a lube for everything under the sun! AND they had a huge variety of flavors to choose from!
I chose a water-based formula called H20 Peachy Lips. It was a delicious peach flavor! (I tasted it in the truck on my way home.)
When I got home, (after putting my purchase to good use, and smelling uncannily like fresh peaches) I went to the System Jo website to learn more. I found out that this fabulous company sells all kinds of lubricants, sensual stimulants, flavored or unflavored, water-based or silicone-based- they have everything you could want to enhance your sex life! I was curious about each one of them, and wanted to experience them all!
System Jo sent me a wonderful assortment of their products so that I could try them first hand.(What a wonderful company!) I will tell you about the formulas below, and my thoughts on each.
H20 Flavored Limited Edition Strawberry Cheesecake water-based lubricant–
The JO® H2O Flavored Limited Edition Collection offers a flavorful array of personal lubricants designed to enhance foreplay and intimacy. Formulated with a pure plant-based glycerin and infused with natural flavor extracts, this collection will excite the taste buds and appetite for pleasure. No added sugar or artificial sweeteners also make this a guilt-free addition to bedroom play!
As with the Peachy Lips flavor, this one tasted amazing! The water-based formula is perfect because it does not irritate my skin at all. It might dry a bit faster than the silicone formulas, but it does not ever feel sticky. This might be TMI, but I prefer to use a flavored lube when performing oral on my husband. There, I said it.
JO® H2O Original
JO® H2O Original is a water-based personal lubricant designed to supplement the body’s natural lubrication. Formulated using a purely plant-based glycerin, this top selling lubricant is designed to provide a silky smooth and comforting glide with no stick or tack residue. Plus, JO® H2O is toy friendly, condom compatible and easy to clean. Simply apply and play!
This formula is perfect! No stickiness! No irritation whatsoever!
JO® PREMIUM Classic
JO® PREMIUM Classic is a silicone-based personal lubricant designed to supplement the body’s natural lubrication and enhance the pleasures of intimacy. The silky smooth, buttery glide is water-resistant and long lasting, making it an ideal partner for adventurous play. JO® PREMIUM is free of preservatives and formulated using only the highest quality silicones. A little goes a long way!
I love this one because it really does feel natural. It lasts a long time without drying. I love the long lasting formula!
JO® AGAPÉ
JO® AGAPÉ (pronounced ah-gah-pay) is a personal lubricant designed to mimic a woman’s natural lubrication. This new and improved water-based formula is free of glycerin, glycol and parabens; ideal for individuals who are ingredient driven in their purchases. Plus the incredibly light formula provides a delicate glide that feels as smooth as silk. A must try product! JO® AGAPÉ is toy friendly, compatible with most materials and best of all, easy to clean.
I think, if I had to choose just one lube out of all of these, that this one is probably my favorite. It feels like my own natural moisture, and it even has a sight sweet taste. I don’t know why.
JO® WARM & BUZZY
JO® WARM & BUZZY is formulated to be the complete sensation package, with not one, but two unique sensations. Enjoy a mild tingle that transitions into a warming sensation and peaks at a thrilling vibrating/buzzing. JO® WARM & BUZZY is used to heighten the experience of foreplay like never before with a topical cream. Simply apply a little during foreplay, toy play or solo-play and enjoy the ride!
It has a really cooling effect! That is all I am going to say about it. (I am blushing!)
JO® Vaginal Tightening Serum
JO® Vaginal Tightening Serum heightens sexual pleasure by tightening and moisturizing vaginal tissue within minutes of application. A special blend of moisturizers enriches its creamy texture for a soft, comfortable feel, while its subtle cooling sensation amplifies pleasure with a tantalizing tingle. With a convenient no drip pump, application is easy and comfortable using a finger or vibrator.
This product is the bomb! It has a fun tingle, and tightens that intimate area, (even one like mine, that has pushed out four humans!) My husband is pleased, too!
JO® RENEW Vaginal Moisturize
JO® RENEW Vaginal Moisturizer is an intensive moisturizing cream specifically designed for women. The blend of moisturizers including bisabolol, aloe vera, and cucumber fruit provide a gentle daily use formula designed to relieve vaginal dryness. The rich, silky cream offers a drip free application for ease of use day or night.
This cream can be a life saver, especially for when a woman might not be in the mood, but does not want her partner to know that! Just apply this in the bathroom before ‘play time’ and your partner will think ‘you are ready!’ That sounds kind of mean, but it works! It makes you feel nice, and works as an internal lubricant. I love it!
The JO® Beginner’s Luck Gift Set
The JO® Beginner’s Luck Gift Set includes single-use packs of the most in demand formulas:
H2O Original, Premium Original Silicone, Agapé Original, All-in-One Warming Massage Glide, H2O Cooling, Silicone Free Hybrid, H2O Strawberry Kisses, and Gelato Salted Caramel. It’s everything a beginner (or anyone) needs on a lucky night. Rabbit’s foot not included.
I love these handy-dandy packets that you can stick in your purse (or the glove box of your car) for a quickie!
Every product that I have tried from System JO has been of the highest quality. My husband and I have tried many brands over the years, but no other brand of personal lubricant has worked as well for us as System Jo products. We are loyal customers for life!
