Green tea seed extract has been shown to have an inhibitory effect on candida albicans, fermented cranberry extract can help to soothe, alpha oligosacharrides and inulin are the prebiotics that can help maintain the growth of L. crispatus, L. iners, L. jensenii, and L. gasseri (good bacteria.)
Store it below 25C and away from sunlight.
Prebiotic refers to anything that can help the growth of good bacteria within the body. It is important that we encourage the growth of good bacteria as a low level will cause larger numbers of harmful bacteria,
which can lead to unwanted health effects.
Water Based Lubes are recommended to be used within 12 months of opening.
If irritation occurs, discontinue use immediately and wash with cold
water. Seek further medical advice from your doctor if further
irritation occurs.
The osmolality of our Water based lube is 1030 mOsm/kg which is within the recommended limits set by the WHO. Natural Tingle Balm does not have an osmolality reading.
The microbiome of the vagina plays a very important role in the health of the vagina. Studies have shown that many lubricants that you can find in the supermarket have been shown to negatively affect the vaginal flora.
Water based lubricants are generally more soothing than silicone lubes. However, silicone lubes can be fun in certain situations such as extended anal play or water play. Water based lubricants are also compatible with Silicone toys, whereas silicone based lubricant is not. Silicone based lubricant can also be hard to clean off surfaces and fabrics.
You can use it for anal play, however, you might find that for more frequent anal play, a silicone lubricant or a water based lubricant with a higher pH will be more suitable.
Yes it will be suitable for postmenopausal vaginas and help lubricate the area!
We do not add flavouring or scent to our water based lubricant. It has a neutral scent and flavour
Yes it is safe for both latex and polyurethane condoms.
Osmolality essentially refers to the concentration of the lubricant. The
osmolality of the lubricant needs to ideally match that of vaginal fluid, so that the water does not diffuse out of the vaginal epiteilial cells though osmosis, and cause cell damage. Hyperosmolar lubricants has been shown to cause cell damage in vitro and the WHO recommends that lubricants should be at the most 1200 mOsm/kg. Lubricants high in glycerine exhibit high osmolality. and are not recommeded by the WHO.
Yes, our Water Based Lubricant is safe to be ingested in small quantities.
The Water Based Lubricant is pH balanced to 3.8-4.5.
We sent our product to an independent lab (MyMicrobiome), where they looked at the overall effect of the product on the diversity of the microbiome commonly found in the vagina, as well as the concentrations. For more information, please click here.
Yes it is!
We are a brand for modern wellness, here to provide safe, natural, plastic-free intimacy products that allow everybody to confidently express themselves across sex and sleep.
Why metal? Aluminum and metals have a much higher rate of recycling than plastics in Australia. Due to financial restraints, we are currently unable to meet large MOQs for a recycled aluminum tube. However, we have set ambitious goals to switch to recycled aluminum tubes by 2025 to
improve the circularity of our packaging.
We all have our kinks and so do our tubes.
Naturally aluminium is much softer and less durable than plastic, and while other similar
tubes often have a plastic lining inside them to avoid such dents, ours are manufactured without in order to comply with our own environmental standards.
We made a conscious choice to go with a non-plastic packaging option, due to ease of recyclability. Unfortunately the only cap options due to the material nature of aluminum does not allow for flip tops or pumps. We are currently working on a larger, more user friendly cap that is easier to screw on and off.
Not to worry, it's the lube drying up when exposed to air. It might also appear discoloured, but simply wipe off excess if builds up.
This vegan, product is made from various natural plant starches, like potato, and gels such as carrageenan. A small amount of food dye gives the capsule its fun, bright pink colour. It dissolves best in/with water, the warmer the better, as the water breaks the bonds within the capsule. If you are looking to add it to your compost bin, please ensure the compost and/or capsule is sufficiently moist and kept warm.
