This table highlights and compares the features of the 4 Best Natural lubes. I have highlighted what I think are the most influential features when it comes to buying a lube:
Thickness: Intimate Earth Hydra is the thickest lube out of all the Natural lubes and has the consistency of maple syrup (not as sticky of course)! When on the skin, it feels smooth but definitely creates a thin layer on top of it. I think it would be great for all kinds of sex, including anal. If you’re looking for a thinner lube that feels more natural and intimate, then I would recommend the Sliquid Organics natural, of which has a closer viscosity to water!
Price: Natural lubes that use Organic ingredients can often be more expensive than other lubes, as they use ingredients that are more expensive and better for the body. Organic ingredients often don’t include parabens or glycerin, of which can negatively react with the body. System JO Organics has the cheapest price tag of all these organic lubes – If you’re still looking for a cheap lube but want a little more to it, then I would opt for the Sliquid Sensations lube! It has tingling sensations and adds a little more buzz to the bedroom!
Longevity: Intimate Earth Hydra was the longest lasting lube out of all these Natural Lubes. Some of the other lubes seemed to dry up quicker and required more re-application. I love a lube that I don’t have to re-apply often and this did exactly that. If you don’t mind re-applying lube, then the Sliquid Organics Natural would perhaps be a great match for you too! You get to pick!
This table shows the results of the tests I carried out on all the Natural lubes. I have compared all of their features in this table:

Test Winner Intimate Earth Hydra Organic Lube
The Intimate Earth’s Hydra Lube is an Organic water-based lube that is thick lube but still manages to not get tacky, and creates and even seal around a sex toy. It is a sexual lubricant that can be used with any sex toy material or condom type and comes in a tall plastic bottle, that is easy to squeeze. The click-close lid makes it easy to direct the lube accurately onto the desired area of the skin. Unfortunately, it is not FDA approved but it has been through scientific testing, making it safe for the market. It has a pH reading of 6, which shows that it is slightly more acidic that alkali. This is good as it is closer to the pH reading of a vagina, attempting to closely match the pH levels in order to avoid infection.
Pros
- ✅ A thick, premium quality lube
- ✅ Can be used with all toy and condom materials
- ✅ Easy to use bottle
- ✅ Sleek and attractive packaging
Cons
- ❌ Doesn't last in water as long as a silicone lube
- ❌ Not the cheapest lube on the market
Why I Chose It
The Intimate Earth Hydra is one of my favorite lubes on the market, as it really ticks all the boxes. It is smooth and conditioned when on the skin, as well as the right viscosity for any type of sex, including anal. The intimate Earth lubes are some of my favourite, as the brand makes high quality lubes that have eye-catching packaging. I adore a lube that use natural ingredients, as it puts my mind at ease knowing that it is safe for my body – the pH of 6 shows that it is slightly acidic which matches the naturally acidic pH of a vagina, therefore reducing the risks! A low risk, high quality lube, what more could you want?
Thinnest Sliquid Organics - Natural Lube
The Sliquid Organics Natural lube is an organic lube that uses organic and natural ingredients. It is designed to be a neutral lube that will be gentle and nonreactive on the skin. Sliquid lubes are designed by women, with women in mind, meaning that each product attempts to match the natural pH of a vagina. This lube’s pH reading is 5, showing that it is acidic – a close match to a vagina. This Organics Natural lube is water-based, meaning that it can be used with any type of condom and sex toy material. The bottle is made of hard plastic and has a clip-close lid, as well as being small enough to hold in one hand.
Pros
- ✅ Doesn't stain
- ✅ Smooth and moisturising
- ✅ Thin
Cons
- ❌ Doesn't feel long-lasting
- ❌ Hard plastic bottle to squeeze
- ❌ Not thick and coating
Why I Chose It
Overall, the Sliquid Organics Natural felt soft and moisturizing when on the skin; living up to what it says on the bottle. This lube didn’t become tacky or dry during use, yet it did feel quite thin and basic, being quite a watery lube. I would use this lube during foreplay or with a small vibrator, as I don’t think it would be very coating on larger toys, or for a long period. While using it, I thought I was going to have to re-apply the lube multiple times, because of how thin it was. If you want a long-lasting lube, I would opt for a thicker organic lube, like the Intimate Earth Hydra.
Budget Friendly System JO Organic Lube
The System JO Organic lube is a water-based lube that is made out of organic ingredients and is free of glycerin. The bottle is made of plastic that is easy to squeeze, as well as an easy-to-use click-close lid. This lube does not have a constant flow when it comes out of the bottle; it is a lumpy, gel-like substance that is watery but smooth when on the skin. It is not tacky but it is thick, and is not translucent but a light green/yellow color, that does stain cotton. It can be used with all condom and sex toy materials and it has a pH level of 6. This shows that it is an acidic lube which is a good reading, as this is closer to matching the body’s natural pH.
Pros
- ✅ It can be used with all types of condoms
- ✅ It can be used with all types of sex toys
- ✅ The lid is easy to use
- ✅ It uses organic ingredients
Cons
- ❌ Slight chemical smell
- ❌ Stains sheets
- ❌ Not good for all sex - e.g anal
- ❌ Doesn't last very long
Why I Chose It
This lube wasn’t one of my favourites because it was nothing like any other lubes that I had tried before! I’ll start with the good things: the bottle and lid were very easy to use and the design of the packaging was eye-catching. This lube had a pH of 6, meaning that it is more acidic than neutral, which is good as it is a closer match to the acidic pH of a vagina. I prefer water-based lubes as I think they feel more natural and I prefer to use silicone toys. Other than these points, I disliked this lube. I didn’t like the texture at all – it came out in a gel-like spill, not having a constant flow, and felt a bit gloopy! I would prefer a smooth lube, like the Sliquid sensations, a lube that is translucent and doesn’t feel like jelly!

Best Tingling Sliquid Sensations Organic Lube
The Sliquid lubes are certainly not my favorite, but this lube was pretty good. Despite the hard-to-use bottle because of the hard, thick plastic, the lube itself felt thick and coated. It has a medium-high longevity and I felt like I wouldn’t have to re-apply it often. The Sliquid lubes are not FDA-approved but this particular lube is organic, meaning that it uses natural ingredients that don’t interfere with the body’s natural pH. The Sliquid lubes are made by women, for women, so this lube has a pH reading of 5, which is an excellent attempt to match a vagina’s natural pH. For an organic lube with a special feature, it had an affordable price tag.
Pros
- ✅ Can be used with any material toys
- ✅ Can be used with all condom types
- ✅ It has attractive packaging
Cons
- ❌ Not waterproof
- ❌ Hard, plastic bottle
- ❌ The special feature wasn't noticeable
Why I Chose It
The Sliquid Sensations lube isn’t the best, but it isn’t the worst. I would recommend this lube for someone who is looking for something thick and long-lasting, but is also health and safety conscious and appreciates an organic lube with natural ingredients. I think this lube would be great for any sexual activities, including anal. When I used it with a silicone dildo, it worked well, and coated it thoroughly. It is slightly disappointing that the tingling sensation wasn’t that noticeable for me, and I would have liked to have felt it working. I love a water-based lube that is thick but not tacky, and this lube is exactly that. If you’re not like me and would prefer a more watery lube, then i would recommend Sliquids’ Organics Natural lube instead, as it is certainly thinner and more runny. Overall, I think I would probably buy this lube again if my favorite was out of stock!
