Babelube vs. Liquid Silk
I keep Babelube and Liquid Silk in the cyber-dyke studio’s safe sex supplies box and offer both types to models. I also dip into the box sometimes for personal use, but don’t tell the boss lady. I like both lubes and I use both depending on which one jumps into my hands.
Babelube is your basic no frills plain all purpose lube. It’s water-based and glycerin-free. Several of us have used it for anal sex in addition to pussy play, and it works well for both. It works well for masturbation and I’ve used it on my play partners. It does leave a bit of the usual lube stickiness, but most lubes do. It’s not the wettest lube I’ve used, so if you like it extra slick this might not be your first choice. It is long lasting and very affordable. It’s a clear color, gel texture, unscented and tastes like lube. I wouldn’t recommend tasting it. It’s really affordable and much better than other lubes in the price range. The largest size bottle comes with a pump for easier access.
Liquid Silk has a long history in our studio. I can’t remember who first brought it over. It might have been Zille or Ondine. I can’t remember all the details, but the two of them were doing a scene together and one squirted a glob of the lube into the other’s hands. This lube is white and about the same consistency as natural body fluids, so the receiver was a bit shocked to have a handful of white body fluids squirted all over, if you know what I mean. This is a very good lube, creamy and white with no scent of flavor. It is water based, glycerin-free and it cleans up really well. It keeps things really wet. It’s also antibacterial so you don’t have to worry about accidentally sharing germs with your partners. It does come in a pump bottle, so it’s easier to stay safe and clean. This lube works for toys, and anal sex in addition to all your favorite types of pussy play. It tastes bitter so you probably won’t want to use it for oral sex.

After trying all kinds of lubes, both fancy and frugal, Liquid Silk wins hands down (yes, down there) for me. Just perfect.
