Yes Oil Based Lubricant that melts on your skin

  The sample of Yes Oil-based Lubricant came in a pretty turquoise bottle, that actually is discreet enough to pass as a travel-sized shampoo! So, there's nothing remotely embarrassing about it, no bold words that might scare you off, no nudity on the packaging. That's a big plus! Also, I want to take the time to note that Yes Lubricant ships discreetly. You won't see a package in the mail that says "excuse me! I have a tube of lube inside!" It doesn't even say anything that could hint at what's inside, so no worries there either.

 One great thing about this Oil-based lubricant is it didn't stain my clothing or sheets, and it doesn't get messy. As you may can see in the photo, it left my hand glowy, but not greasy. It's super moisturizing and feels great on. Yes recommends adding a layer of this along with their Water-Based Yes for extreme slip and slide! I tried this for just foreplay and loved it! I do a lot of massaging and these two combined are exactly the kind of long-lasting slipperyness I require. Also, adding the oil-based Yes means you can play in the shower, pool or hot tub without it washing fully away. It still leaves some slipperyness when in the shower.

I've told you before that I'd been previously using a lubricant called Liquid Silk, but as I became more health conscious, I began a journey to find a lubricant that was super efficient in lubricating, leaves absolutely no residue and is totally safe to use. Liquid Silk contains parabens, as most lubricants do, so I was getting more and more hesitant about using it everyday. Parabens have been linked to reproductive system problems and as you probably know are detrimental to your overall health.

So I was able to find a paraben-free lubricant as well as a couple natural and organic ones. I have tried literally at least 60 different lubricants! All of various brands. I know this makes me sound picky, but hey, who can blame me? But out of at least 60 (possibly even more than that, I quit counting after 60) I only liked 4 of them enough to keep using them. Still however, those 4 all had pretty big "cons" about them. These four lubricants all contained parabens except one, and that one still contained glycerin and was so runny. Each of the 4 contained glycerin!

For those of you who do not know, glycerin is something we like to avoid in lubricants (and toothpaste if you're like me) and any personal care products we use downstairs because it's one of the main causes of yeast infections and urinary tract infections! That's why taking bubble baths often cause women and children a UTI. Have you ever had a romantic night licking the tasty, edible lubricant off your loved one only to wake up the next morning with a yeast infection? Yep, do know that lubricants that contain glycerin and/or sugar is almost a sure fire way to earn yourself a yeast infection or UTI. I personally haven't had the misfortune of becoming so sensitive to glycerin that it's caused me any infection, but I try to avoid it still.

Now that you know that, you may think 'holy heck, now what will I do if my lubes are the reason I keep getting infections!?' Calm down, Yes Lubricants do not contain anything at all such as glycerin or sugar that will harm your precious parts! Score one for Yes, score 0 for the four previous lubes I was using!

So, while Yes was immediately gaining points from me, I was a little nervous about whether or not it woud really, really hold up for all my needs.

Then I was on to using Yes Water-based for intercourse, and then tried Yes Oil-Based for the same things -- foreplay, kegel ball insertion & intercourse. Now, it may be "TMI," but giving some brief info on what my needs are could be beneficial for someone reading this, so I'll do that, but scroll on if it's "TMI."

Personally, I need a good, thick lubricant. Not that runny, step above water type of stuff. It doesn't give enough of a... layer of thickness between my skin and whatever is being inserted. I am a pretty narrow person downstairs and tend to experience discomfort, sometimes pain and even tiny tears when things go from ultra-gentle to a little rough. It's dreadful knowing I'll be sore for an entire day after any activity, and the discomfort upon the beginnings of "activity" tend to cause me a great deal of discomfort. This is coming from a person who has heavy foreplay too! I guess my natural lubrication is just not enough, and that's a lot of us girls. Then you have people who are just totally dry due to menopause or whatever. So naturally, penetration will be uncomfortable.

The natural and organic lubricants I tried were decent, but also were only a step above using water. So I went on a silicone binge and experienced the same thing.

Then after having more than one person tell me I should try Yes, I got to reading up on the company and their lubes and was too ready to give them a try. I certainly didn't expect a big difference from this mess I'd already tried, but I was beyond intrigued after reading the great things about Yes.






- All Yes products are certified organic.   Certified organic means the product must contain at least 95%  of organic ingredients.   Just try to find another lubricant that claims to be naturally and truly is. I've been there and found only a couple that truly were legit, but as I explained, they weren't effective in the least. Many times a company will write "all natural" all over the package, but then you look at the ingredient list and see crap like methylparaben! What? Methylparaben is not natural, where have you been? That was exactly what I said upon my last lube-adventure. It said natural, but I looked at the ingredients and sure enough, it wasn't.

Yes is absolutely legitimate and truly natural lubricant. Which brings me to something I've gathered while on this journey. I've noticed that a lot of companies that sell lubricants that contain glycerin, parabens and all these harmful preservatives and such will have one measly product that says "all natural." Yet when you look closer, they haven't gone to any effort to back it up. It reminds me of a few companies I looked through and found all kind of sugar-filled lubes that sounded fun, but would truly be an infection waiting to happen. Then I'd notice one product that says natural, yet there would be nothing about it. The company didn't proudly have anything on their wepbage saying "hey, we guarantee that one of our products are natural." Nothing.

So upon further investigation, I would learn that they didn't actually have a fully natural product at all! They just met enough of the qulifications to slap that label on there and be done!

However, when you have something "certified organic" that's when you can be fairly sure. When a company backs it up, guarantees and will even communicate with you to assure you, you're on good territory.

When you visit the Yes Lubricant website, you see immediately the "certified organic" note. They don't hide ingredients and are always happy to be up front about how safe their lubricants are. That's trustworthy. I've emailed companies with shoddy ingredients before asking questions like "it says 100% natural but parabens are listed on the ingredients list" and gotten either NOTHING back from them or had them tell me something along the lines of "rest assured, it's safe." Really? That's definitely reassuring!  Yes Lubricants customer service will not put you in the dark like that. So these were major kudos for them.

Visiting Yes' website, you have pages full of information such as Why Yes? And How does Yes compare? I've included links to these pages. Simply click on "Why Yes" in the first sentence of this paragraph to visit that page, and so on.

On the Why Yes? page, you'll learn many things, including how long it took to create the Yes lubricants and why it's a good choice for you. Yes went through 3 years of research and development to create the lubricants that are all these things and more:

- Yes lubricants is effective without comprimising purity. And let me just say, Yes absolutely exceeds this girl's needs!

- Derivitive-free. No additives, parabens, chemicals or animal testing. Yes contains no glycols, GSE, sodium benzoate, mineral oil.

- Has moisture retentative properties, which is something I immediately noticed when applying Yes.

- Formulated from plant extracts.

- Is composed of other organic, cosmetic and food quality ingredients.

- Actively nourishes mucous membranes.

Actually, when I read that Yes does not contain sodium benzoate, it brought to mind my researching sodium benzoate just a month ago after finding it in my most recently purchased lubricant! I was horrified at the dangers of sodium benzoate, which include mitochondrial damage and it's a skin irritant.

Sodium Benzoate is often used in skincare/cosmetics as a corrosion inhibitor, and clearly causes damage in turn.

Glycols have the ability to allow chemicals to penetrate the skin, pulling them into the bloodstream!

Parabens are found in breast tumors!


Mineral oil is a petroleum by-product. Is said to basically suffocate skin.

These are only a few from Yes webpage. Visit the link to read them all. And I highly recommend visiting this page, which is available on Yes website, giving you an easy-to-read chart of how Yes compares to other leading lubes! You'll definitely learn a thing or two, be surprised and possibly even learn something about the lubricant you have sitting on your nightstand right now.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH YES OIL-BASED LUBRICANT

As I previously posted, my first Yes encounter was with the Yes Water-based lube, after using it and loving it so much, I tried the Oil-based version as well with different results, but loved all the same! 

You know, I have never used an oil-based lubricant and enjoyed it. I am fine with oil for back massages, but it never felt very nice downstairs. Not for foreplay, massaging down there and least of all for intercourse because it would always be sort of tacky, which did not reduce friction, but seemed to increase it leaving my outer tissue to be pulled, dragged and tugged on. 

Rubbed in, leaves  moisturized skin and a pretty glow!

So I wasn't expecting to totally adore the Oil-based Yes. I began by trying it out on my hand. As you can kind of see in the photos, it's thick and looks sort of like petrluem jelly. Not quite, but it does resemble it.

I put this glob on my hand and after a second, it was like it began to melt to my hand! It was beautiful, just beautiful. It became all liquidy, but not runny. It just melted. Instead of the white clump, it became a non-greasy, but thick liquid, and felt like wonderful each way I used it. I ended up rubbing the glob into my hand and used Yes Oil-Based elsewhere. My hand was so nice and smooth, intensely moisturized and left with a glowy appearance. 

This brought me to the conclusion that Yes Oil-Based lubricant is exactly the lube for super dry ladies. The water-based version of Yes was plenty for me, but the oil-based will be something I also want to buy since it's like a luxurious lube. I have to admit, I am dying to use this stuff on my dry skin too. It done wonders for the skin on my hand and crotch and left things feeling smoother than ever before. I'm telling you, you'll have one slippery, smooth and slick crotch if you use Yes Oil-Based after epilating or shaving. I imagine this could work like a dream for the occasional dry hands, feet and elbows. 

Unlike the greasy residue you have left behind with other oil-based lubricants, Yes was totally different. It does leave a smooth, glowy finish, but when I run my hands across the skin after it's been absorbed well, it's so smooth like nothing was ever there. This impressed me so much because I expected this to be one of those shower-right-after lubes. It doesn't require showering to remove anything. While Yes is so long lasting that one application could well outlast me, it doesn't leave me sticky, slimey or greasy. However, if you really wanted to remove it for whatever reason, a wet wash cloth will suffice in removal. No soap is necessary until you do plan to shower.

The oil based Yes is fantastic, and something I'd definitely recommend to those who need a lot of thick lubricant. This stuff is amazing.
