Wow, I had no idea aloe vera could be used this way, but it makes sense. I’m all for natural products and have always been cautious about store-bought lubricants because of the chemicals and potential irritation. After reading this thread, I decided to try it, and I have to say, I’m pretty impressed. The sensation is unlike any other lube I’ve used. It’s cooling and hydrating, and both my partner and I noticed that it made everything feel a bit more intimate and intense."
"One thing I’ll add is that it’s important to go for a good-quality aloe vera. The gel you find in stores often has added preservatives, which can irritate sensitive areas. I learned that the hard way when I used an aloe product that wasn’t pure, and it caused a slight burn. Since then, I’ve switched to using the natural gel straight from the plant, and it’s been a much better experience."
"As for the lasting power, I find it works well for shorter sessions, but for a longer session, I do need to reapply. It doesn’t feel like it’s drying out, but I’ve noticed it gets absorbed into the skin a little. That’s something I don’t mind, though, since it still feels comfortable, and I’m not dealing with any of the messiness that comes with other lubricants."
"I’d recommend this to anyone who’s looking for a natural alternative. It’s simple, easy to apply, and it feels way more natural than most synthetic products out there. If you’re thinking about trying it, just make sure to test it first on a small patch of skin to make sure it doesn’t cause any allergic reactions. Aloe has a ton of benefits beyond just lubrication, so it’s a win-win in my book.
