PEARL, Miss. — Sexpert Tami Rose, the owner of Romantic Adventures retail outlet, is offering advice on edible lubes.
“Flavored lubes are either very good or very bad and there seems to be no in-between,” she observed. “For fruit flavors and unparalleled rigorous testing and safe lab environments, I would have to say System JO lubes are always a good go-to; Strawberry, Watermelon and Cherry are our top-three flavors, but I have a dedicated Lemon flavor following as well. It’s light and refreshing and not overwhelming. Peach and Tropical Fruit get honorable mentions."
Rose recommended Wicked Sensual Care's Aqua Chill for "a great summertime cool-down."
"Wicked Aqua Chill is amazing; it uses peppermint oil and simple ingredients to create a truly amazing sensation," she said. "I think Wicked has really nailed some complex flavors and they don't leave a greasy feel or saccharine aftertaste."
She also highly recommends Wicked Sensual Care's Salted Caramel flavor.
When choosing a lube, Rose urges consumers to look for easy-to-understand ingredients.
"And you definitely want something water-based for oral pleasure,” she continued. “You may move into hybrids if you want things to last longer, but you will sacrifice taste. Have a bottle of water-based and a bottle of silicone-based for skin-to-skin or shower play. Be sure not to use warming lotions instead of flavored lube; some tingly products contain sugar, and sugar in the vagina is an invitation for bacteria and may feed a yeast infection if your internal pH becomes imbalanced."
“It’s best to visit your local adult store — or, say, Romantic Adventures online for good reputable adult-oriented products,” Rose concluded. “Leave the cooking oils in the kitchen and use the right products in the right application. Take care of your equipment so you can stay in the game.”
