Why I Chose It

The most exciting, delicious, flavoursome lube I have ever tried! The System JO slated caramel lubricant actually tastes like salted caramel sauce that I would devour if it was on my dessert. Everything about this lube is what I love – the packaging is easy to use, as well as having an attractive design. It is made from a brand that I know makes high quality lubes, as I own plenty of JO lubes. Myself and another tester Rachel both tried out 2 lubes form the JO Gelato collection, and both were as delicious as each other, so I must applaud System JO for this tasty collection.

When trying all these flavoured lubes, I couldn’t help but notice that a lot of them contained glycerin. For someone who has a sensitive downstairs, I have always been one to avoid glycerin in my lubes. Therefore, even though I would suggest using flavoured lube to make oral more tasty and exciting, I would perhaps only use it on a penis and not a vagina, just to avoid a pH imbalance. But for oral, this lube works perfectly, making your partner or yourself 10 times tastier. A little bit goes a long way as even after sex, the sweet taste still remained in my mouth!

As I was the tester for most lubes on the site, for this review I wrote “I love the way it is thin and has a natural feel to it, as I would hate to have a thick lube in my mouth!” Typically I would never use lube for oral, so when I used a flavored one, I was apprehensive at first that it would be thick and slimy in my mouth, and that I wouldn’t be able to get rid of that feeling for ages. Despite the flavor remaining, the feeling of the lube didn’t, which I would have hated!

Why I Chose It

If you read the review I gave this lube, you may be wondering why I have included it in my 6 best flavoured lubes. Granted, it is not my favourite lube of all time, and that mostly roots from the texture and feeling of the lube. The texture is gel-like but smooth, along with not being translucent. I much prefer a thin lube that has no colour and is smooth, not chunky. However, the qualities of this lube is what made me put it in this roundup.

Firstly, it really tastes like strawberries! The packaging is eye-catching and cute, and on brand with what the lube is offering. JO are so good at linking their packaging design to what the lube is, and it is an added feature that I really like. As I have said before, I would primarily choose a flavoured lube for oral sex and not actual sex, due to most of them containing glycerin. But this one uses organic ingredients that won’t negatively affect the body! Woohoo! That’s why this lube has to be my Beginners pick – If you are someone with little to no experience, you are not going to want to worry about your lube messing up your pH, so I’ve removed the worry!

When thinking about flavoured lubes, the one main thing that comes into my head, it that it is probably going to go in my mouth… So are the ingredients safe to eat?! Like most of the JO lubes, they have FDA approved ingredients, meaning that they have been through tests and are deemed non-harmful for consumption. Of course, I wouldn’t recommend large amounts, but a lick of lube will be tasty enough!

Why I Chose It

I am also apprehensive when buying warming lubes, organic lubes or flavoured lubes, as they all have a ‘special feature’ that makes them more interesting and desirable than a basic, water-based lube. To me, all I am seeing is added dollar bills. So I had to pick a budget friendly option, for those of you who want a flavoursome time, without spending an arm and a leg.

System JO mint has everything I like, all in the same bottle. It is very peppermint flavoured, it is thin and smooth, giving it a natural feel and not synthetic. It is made by one of my favourite lube brands, System JO, of which you should be pretty familiar with how much I love them by now. I really have no complaints, it is a great flavoured lube that I would highly recommend for oral sex.

Okay I told a small white lie, I wouldn’t be using this lube for sex, as it contains glycerin! I would only use this for oral sex with my partner and not really on myself, as I don’t want to be putting glycerin down there! I really hate it when a lube throws off my pH, and unfortunately lubes that contain glycerin, often do this for me!

A Closer Look
  • Warms up with friction
  • Very week smelling flavoured lube
  • Not the most intense warming lube

Specifications

Pros

  • The packaging is eye-catching and appealing
  • It warms up to an appealing temperature
  • It can be used with all sex toys

Cons

  • It constantly has to be activated to feel warm
  • It doesn't get very hot
  • It separates and almost dries up on the skin

Why I Chose It

A warming and flavoured lube! Don’t say I don’t spoil you – The Intimate Earth Melt is a great introductory warming lube for those who are just getting started with temperature play. When rubbing the lube, it starts to heat up, introducing a new dimension to sex! Now just think about this, a warm lube, that also tastes of sweet cinnamon! What a dreammm

When trying this lube, I could feel the slight warmth, but it isn’t the hottest warming lube. Yet, if you are looking for a lube that has the features of both flavour and warmth, then I would for sure recommend this product. It is a slightly thicker lube that has a coating consistency to it, so I would recommend it for anal, if you wanted to flavour your partners behind! I have reviewed a number of intimate Earth lubes, and the bran dis in my top 5 favourite for sure. The overall packaging experience and quality is great, with a well thought out branding design and bottle. The quality of lubes itself is also great, feeling sleek and smooth on the skin, as well as compatible and safe. To go with their higher quality packaging design and lube, it does come at a higher price, but most higher quality goods do!

If I am being honest, it is not the most flavoursome or the hottest, so if you are new to both lube features, then it would be great for you. A lube that is exciting but subtle and not too overwhelming. But of you know you’re someone who needs intense heat and flavour, then another lube option would be better.

As you can imagine, there is one main test that I carried out when testing these flavoured lubes… The taste test! Let me elaborate on my testings…

Taste: Of course I had to have a taste of each lube, to see if it actually tasted like what it said it should. Some had weaker flavours than I would have liked, and some tasted very chemically, so please take a close read.

Smell: Despite some lubes having a weak smell, they had a strong taste. And vice versa – it is up to you what is more important, but I find that smell can make sex more exciting and enjoyable, so a stronger smelling lube is what I would pick!

Ingredients: Most of the flavoured lubes in this roundup contains glycerin, a sugar that can promote bacterial growth and therefor cause a bacterial infection in the vulva. So if you have a sensitive vulva, perhaps an organic lube would be a better choice.

This table shows the results of the tests I carried out on all the Silicone based lubes. I have compared all of their features in this table:

What is so special about flavoured lube?

Flavoured lube can increase arousal by making oral sex more pleasurable and tasty, therefore great for foreplay arousal! I would recommend using flavoured lubes for oral sex, to add more flavour and excitement to your bedroom playtime!
