As mentioned above, this product’s formula is based on silicone. The manufacturer shares that the two contained ingredients in the formula are simply Cyclomethicone and Dimethiconol.

Some consumers may appreciate that simplicity of this formula. We do appreciate that the manufacturer appears to leave Parabens out of the product. Parabens are preservatives that are said to extend the shelf life of products, but they are also said to be carcinogenic (cancer-causing), so many consumers avoid products that contain this ingredient.

When it comes to personal lubricants, the biggest decision between products is often whether or not they are water-based or silicone-based. For the most part, many people avoid oil-based lubes, as they are not latex-friendly and can actually cause condoms to rip or tear, while both water-based and silicone-based lubricants are compatible with condoms.

Consumers who prefer water-based lubricants like that they are easier to flush out of and off the body after use, they are often less expensive and more widely available and they can be found in flavors and warming variations. Those consumers who prefer silicone-based formulas appreciate that less product is required to generate the same results, and also like that the formula contains no water, which means that the product will not evaporate off of the skin and can last longer. A final benefit is that these types of products do not absorb into the skin. Though, it’s important to note that silicone lubricants do require a fair amount of clean up after and people usually need soap and water to completely wash it off of the skin.

This silicone lubricant is actually not that expensive. A small bottle can be found for sale just under $10, and is said to last a fair amount of time. Though, since this product was not made specifically for the female body, we do wonder if it can adequately heighten sensations and sensitivity for female users. Again, there are creams on the market that were made exclusively for women and that actually contain ingredients that can increase the sensitivity of the clitoris. Consumers who are interested in such a product may want to research creams that contain both Peppermint Oil and Sweet Almond Oil, as these two ingredients have been proven to produce amazing results.

In the end, consumers who were thinking of trying a silicone-based lubricant may be interested in this product. Personal lubricants are known to add enjoyment to sexual encounters, but to significantly increase a woman’s pleasure and satisfaction, we do feel that a cream designed specifically for the female body may be better equipped and far more successful at generating results. Those women who want to continue their product search may want to find a cream that comes with a money-back guarantee to ensure that it’s possible to test the product risk-free. However, those consumers who would like to try iLube Silicone Lubricant can find it for sale at various online stores for just under $10.
