Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Love it
Best personal lube around. Tried them all and this is the best stays wet the longest and clean up is easy! My wife loves it too...



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great product
My wife and I have used Astrogel personal lubricant for a number of years. It works great for personal intercourse or with toys. It is the only personal lubricant that we use now.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - A good, if messy lube
We ran out of lube after buying the Condom Lover's Wild Weekend pack, and needed to buy more. We received a few samples of this brand, so I bought it. It does it's job admirably, but it does leave something of a mess. I don't know if this is a default with the product, or if I'm just squeezing too much out. Anyhow, while clean up can be a hassle, it's still a good lube to use. Keep some tissues nearby though.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Cheaper in the bigger bottle
Great stuff, but you do have to reapply it after a while, and it does become rather sticky when it dries out a bit. Nice Bottle. Buy this bigger one and save money.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not the Best
I tried Astroglide because it seems to be the most popular lubricant on the market. However, I can't really figure out why, as it is my least favorite of the ones I have tried.

The liquid is thin, extremely messy, and has a tendency to run all over the place. The runniness and ensuing mess were so bad that it sort of became an in-joke between me and my partner. It's also very easy to get too much unintentionally. When you put it where you want it, it won't stay put unless you use your entire hand to spread it on the surface, so your choice is to dribble on the sheets or be left with a very messy hand.

The lubricant itself doesn't seem to last very long and reapplication is usually necessary. I personally didn't think it felt as good as other products, as it seemed less slippery.

In addition, this product has ruined my very nice 400-count cotton sheets. There are permanent lube stains now that refuse to wash out. I realize that there is some risk of staining with lubricants, but the fact that it's water-based *and* impossible to avoid some dripping on the sheets makes this issue even more frustrating to me.

If I can help it, I will never buy Astroglide again. Boo Astroglide!

I am, however, very pleased with the next product we tried, Durex Play More Lubricants - Pleasure Enhancing, 3.38 oz. It, too, is water-based, so it is safe to use with condoms. The product is thicker, meaning it doesn't run like crazy, and the bottle has a pump which makes it less messy and easier to get just the right amount.
