Is a water-based lubricant the right choice for toys? In most cases, yes. Water-based lubricant does not react with silicone, TPE or TPR, which is why it is the usual recommendation for toys. Wicked lists Simply Aqua as safe for use with all toy materials and as latex friendly, so the same bottle works for toys, condoms and skin. The trade-off with water-based formulas is that they can dry out. This one is reactivated with moisture, so a little water brings it back.
Simply Aqua 4 oz: the everyday bottle
Simply Aqua is Wicked's plain water-based lubricant. The maker describes it as slick, sensual and never sticky. It is pH balanced, vegan and cruelty free, and it is made without glycerin, propylene glycol or parabens. Olive leaf extract is included for its moisturizing properties.

The 4 oz bottle is the larger of the two sizes and has a locking closure. It is listed as long lasting, latex friendly and safe with all toy materials, and it can be revived with a little moisture. It rinses away with water.
Best for: For people who want one dependable lubricant for sex, solo play and toys of any material. The 4 oz size suits regular use at home. It is a good fit for those who avoid glycerin, propylene glycol and parabens.
