How much silicone is in Ride BodyWorx Silk Hybrid? The maker states that Silk Hybrid infuses 12% silicone, along with cream emollients, into a water-based formula. That proportion is the point of the product. There is enough silicone to keep the lubricant slick for longer than a traditional water-based one, but the formula is still mostly water, so it does not need the scrubbing that a full silicone lubricant can. The texture is silky and slightly creamy.
Ride BodyWorx Silk Hybrid: mostly water, a measure of silicone
Ride BodyWorx Silk Hybrid is a hybrid personal lubricant made by Sliquid, here in a 2 fl oz bottle. It is water-based, with 12% silicone and cream emollients blended in. The maker's aim is glide that lasts longer than a water-based lubricant gives, without the more difficult cleanup of silicone. It is made without glycerin or parabens and is listed as vegan friendly. The texture is silky, with enough slip for most kinds of play.
Best for: For people who reapply water-based lube too often and want something longer lasting that still washes off without fuss. The 2 fl oz bottle is easy to pack and a sensible first size. It works for solo use and with a partner.
