What makes an anal glide different from a regular lubricant? An anal glide is thicker. Regular water-based lubricants are often thin enough to be absorbed or pushed aside quickly, which is a problem in an area that makes no moisture of its own. A glide like Soothe is formulated to be ultra-thick so it forms a cushion and remains in place during anal sex. Soothe is water-based and pH balanced, and Intimate Earth blends it with guava bark extract. It is also listed as friendly to latex condoms.
Soothe: an ultra-thick anal glide from Intimate Earth
Soothe is a water-based anal glide from Intimate Earth in a 2 oz (60 ml) bottle. The formula is ultra-thick and pH balanced, and is designed to give plenty of lubrication for both partners while forming a cushion that holds its position. It is blended with guava bark extract, which the maker describes as a natural antibacterial agent. Soothe is paraben free, latex condom friendly and listed as safe to ingest.
Best for: For couples having anal sex and for anal toy users who want a thick lubricant without a numbing ingredient listed. The 2 oz bottle is a handy size for travel or for trying the formula before buying a larger one.
