Five Stars

The best lube ever. Honest.

Let's start out with a laundry list of everything that's superlative about this lube, the finest we've ever used, hands-down (or hands wherever you want them):

• Perfectly slippery, and perfectly balanced between thick and thin
• Opening the display box, you discover a graceful, completely unlabeled clear bottle, discreet enough to grace your bedside table without embarrassing you or Mom
• A pump top that dispenses the ideal small dollop of lube. O'My is expensive ($14-16 for the beautiful little 4-ounce bottle), but our first bottle has lasted for months of regular use. That's because we use so little each time.
• No taste, or perhaps the faintest sweetness, non-irritating, very long-lasting, and condom-safe
• Straightforward all-natural ingredients including hemp and guarana

This review of O'My is an act of love. No free review samples for us -- we buy it on our own at Pleasures of the Heart, a wonderful neighborhood erotic boutique and education resource in Marin County, California. O'My seems suddenly to be available everywhere, though, including Babeland, a major Clean Sheets sponsor. Be warned: we noticed that several online stores had this lube temporarily marked "sold out," a testament, we suspect, to its exploding word-of-mouth popularity. And today, when we stopped by Pleasures to pick up another bottle for this review (we'd long ago discarded the packaging from our bedside bottle and needed the info) we made another discovery: it comes not only in its basic taste-free version, but in about eight subtle but outrageous flavors, including Passion Fruit, Strawberry-Kiwi, Cherry, and Blueberry Cheesecake.

Could starvation become a consequence for the sex-obsessed if turned loose on this lube? It's worth the risk. But if you don't hear from us, stop by with pizza!
