What is a hybrid lubricant? A hybrid lubricant combines two bases in one bottle. Most pair a water-type base with a smaller share of silicone, aiming for the easy feel of the first and the staying power of the second. Pussy Willow follows that idea by blending plant cellulose with high-grade silicone. Intimate Earth also infuses it with licorice root and shiitake extracts. The maker lists it as friendly to latex condoms and as a vegan formula made in the USA.
Pussy Willow: a silky hybrid glide from Intimate Earth
Intimate Earth Pussy Willow Silk is a hybrid glide, a personal lubricant that blends plant cellulose with high-grade silicone. The formula is infused with licorice root extract, which the maker calls soothing, and with shiitake extract for a very soft feel. It is listed as latex condom friendly, vegan and made in the USA. This bottle holds 2 oz.
Use is simple: apply it to the area where you want more glide. The small bottle fits a nightstand drawer or an overnight bag. A hybrid of this kind is a middle path between water-based and silicone lubricants.
Best for: Suits people who find plain water-based lubricants dry out too fast but do not want a pure silicone formula. It works for intercourse with latex condoms and for solo use, and the 2 oz bottle is a low-commitment way to try a hybrid.

How to use
Squeeze a small amount onto your fingers and apply it to the area where you want more glide, or over a latex condom. Add a little more if things start to feel dry. Because the blend contains silicone, test it on a small spot of any silicone toy before full use, or keep to a water-based lubricant for those. Wash off with warm water and mild soap.

- Close the cap after each use.
- Store at room temperature, away from direct sunlight.
- Wash off skin with warm water and mild soap.

Frequently asked questions
Is Pussy Willow water-based or silicone-based?
It is a hybrid. The maker describes it as a blend of plant cellulose and high-grade silicone, and lists it as a hybrid glide. The distributor also files it under hybrid lubricants.
Can I use it with condoms?
Yes, with latex condoms. Intimate Earth states that the formula is latex condom friendly. The facts do not mention other condom materials, so check the condom maker's advice for non-latex types.
Is it safe for silicone toys?
The facts do not say. Since the formula contains silicone, the cautious approach is to test a drop on the base of the toy first, or to use a water-based lubricant with silicone toys.
What do the licorice root and shiitake extracts add?
The maker describes the licorice root as soothing and the shiitake extract as super soft. They are botanical additions to the hybrid base. The facts do not give amounts or a full ingredients list.
