Notes from Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer)

Notes from Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer)

Use more than you think, reapply without apology, and match the lube to your toy. Solo, lube makes every toy feel twice as good. Don't be stingy.

If you're shopping, start with Überlube. It feels silky, not sticky, and stays slick long enough that you're not stopping to reapply every two minutes.

How it feels

Überlube. It rinses off easily, doesn't taste like a chemistry set and plays nicely with silicone toys. Alone, a little extra turns a quick session into a long, slippery one.
