Is a flavored lubricant suitable for vegans? It depends on the brand, so it is worth checking. Sliquid lists Naturals Swirl as 100% vegan friendly. The Blue Raspberry version contains purified water, plant cellulose from cotton, guar, natural flavoring, aspartame, potassium sorbate and citric acid. The thickeners are plant-derived, and the formula has no glycerin and no parabens. The maker also lists it as free of sugar and sugar derivatives, hypoallergenic, non-toxic and pH balanced.
Sliquid Swirl Blue Raspberry: a candy-shop flavor, kept subtle
Sliquid Naturals Swirl Blue Raspberry is a flavored water-based lubricant in a 4.2 fl oz (124 ml) bottle. Sliquid takes its Naturals H2O lubricant, which has no glycerin or parabens, and adds natural flavoring with a hint of aspartame. The blue raspberry taste is intentionally light, because Swirl flavors are meant to enhance your taste and not cover it.
The lubricant is water-soluble, non-staining and lightly scented. It is listed as 100% vegan friendly, pH balanced and friendly to latex, rubber and plastic. The maker also describes it as hypoallergenic and non-toxic.
Best for: Suits couples who want a fun berry flavor for oral sex without a thick, syrupy lubricant. It is also a match for vegan shoppers and for anyone avoiding glycerin, parabens or sugar in intimate products.

Frequently asked questions
Is the lubricant colored blue?
The facts do not say that it is. The ingredients list shows natural flavoring but no coloring, and the maker lists the lubricant as non-staining. The name refers to the flavor.
Does it taste sweet?
Lightly. A hint of aspartame sweetens it, and there is no sugar or glycerin. Sliquid describes all Swirl flavors as subtle, so the berry taste stays in the background. It is lightly scented too.
Can it be used with condoms and toys?
Sliquid lists it as friendly to latex, rubber and plastic. It is water-based, which is the type recommended for silicone toys, and it rinses off with water. No soap is needed.
