What is ID Free free from? The name refers to what has been left out. The maker lists six things that ID Free does not contain: glycerin, parabens, benzoic acid, propylene glycol, petrochemicals and alcohol. Formulas without glycerin and parabens are often thinner or shorter lived than standard lubricants. The maker says ID Free was formulated to keep a long-lasting slip and a natural feel despite that. It is water-based, latex safe and non-staining.
ID Free: a water-based lubricant with a short ingredient list
ID Free is a water-based personal lubricant from ID Lubricants, here in the 4.4 oz bottle. It is formulated without glycerin, parabens, benzoic acid, propylene glycol, petrochemicals or alcohol. The maker's aim was to keep the long-lasting slip and natural feel that glycerin-free and paraben-free lubricants sometimes lack. It is listed as latex safe and non-staining. The 4.4 oz bottle sits in the middle of the range, large enough for regular use and still easy to store.
Best for: For people who avoid glycerin, parabens or propylene glycol in products used on intimate skin, and who still want a water-based lubricant that lasts. A good everyday size for couples and for use with toys.

Frequently asked questions
Is ID Free safe with condoms?
The maker lists it as latex safe. The maker says nothing about non-latex condoms, so if you use polyurethane or polyisoprene condoms, check the condom maker's guidance. The formula is water-based and non-staining.
Does it contain glycerin or parabens?
No. It is free of both, and also of benzoic acid, propylene glycol, petrochemicals and alcohol. The maker's description does not include the full ingredients list, so check the bottle if you need to avoid something else.
Which size should I choose?
The formula is the same in every bottle. The 4.4 oz size is the middle option: more than the 2.2 oz travel bottle, and less to store than the 8.5 oz.
