This table highlights and compares the features of the 6 Best Warming lubes. I have highlighted what I think are the most influential features when it comes to buying a lube:
Thickness: The thinnest lube in this round-up is the Fleshlube Fire; being very watery and thin when on the skin. I would compare the thickness of this lube to being similar to whole milk, slightly thicker than water but thinner than blood. If you’re looking for something with a thicker viscosity, then I would recommend the System JO warming lube; it has a similar consistency to maple syrup; a lube that would work really well for anal sex.
Price: Price often varies with lubes, depending on their qualities and ingredients. The cheapest lube in this review is the System JO warming lube, of which is a basic water based lube, that has a medium warming feature. However, if you have a bigger wallet and want something a little hotter, then I would definitely recommend the Intimate Earth Melt warming lube – it will definitely warm you up!
Warming intensity: All of these warming lubes have different temperatures; some of them heating up to a high temperature, really allowing you to explore temperature play whereas some just warm up, heightening sensitivity and arousal. The lube with the hottest warming feature is the Intimate Earth Warming lube; when friction occurs and you rub it against the skin, it gets very hot. If you wanted something less intense, then I would recommend Fleshlube Fire, as it only slightly warms up. All depends on how much of a heat freak you are!
This table shows the results of the tests I carried out on all the Silicone based lubes. I have compared all of their features in this table:

Test Winner System Jo Warming Lube
System JO Warming is a sexual lubricant that has a warming feature; when rubbed against the skin it heats up, adding temperature play to your sex life. It comes in a tall, plastic bottle with a click-close lid, that is easy to squeeze and direct the lube to your desired area. This lube is water based, meaning it can be used with any sex toy material or condom type, as well as being a thick, coating lube, so it would even be great for anal toys! the best part, this lube doesn’t become tacky and is easy to wash off the skin. It is FDA approved and has a pH balance of 6, meaning that is is more acidic than alkali. This is great for vulva owners, as it attempts to match a vulva’s natural pH, therefore reducing the risk of infections!
Pros
- ✅ Clear and attractive bottle design
- ✅ Long lasting without re-application needed
- ✅ Cushioning for large toys/anal
Cons
- ❌ The warming intensity could be more intense
- ❌ Thickness feels a little unnatural
Why I Chose It
I have always been a fan of System JO, and their warming lube is no exception! I really loved it – It is thick enough to coat even the largest of sex toys, as well as warming up to a reasonably hot temperature. It doesn’t get too hot, so if you’re one for more intense heat, then I would recommend the Intimate Earth Mojo Horny Goat Weed warming lube instead! The packaging is eye-catching and attractive, as well as being a great sized bottle to fit in my hand. I hate lubes that I have to think about and re-apply, so this one was great, as I really trusted it to last as long as I did. It was easy to was off the skin and toys, as well as not leaving a stain on my bed sheets. Not many downfalls at all, I need to buy more bottles!!

The Fleshlube Fire is a water-based lubricant that is thin and watery, and has amore oily/greasy feeling when it is on the skin. It doesn’t stain sheets and can easily be washed off skin. It warming feature is activated by friction, so it would be great to use during foreplay with a partner. This lube has a pH balance of 6, showing that it is slightly acidic, which is great for vulva owners. The bottle is made of thin plastic, meaning that it is easy to squeeze and the lube can be aimed accurately on whatever you’d like it to go on; skin or a toy.

- ✅ Easy to use bottle
- ✅ Compatible with all toy materials and condoms
Cons
- ❌ Not great for vigorous activities
- ❌ Not the longest lasting lube
- ❌ Only reaches 'warm'
Why I Chose It
Fleshlube Fire is not the hottest on the market, but it does warm you up! I would recommend this warming lube to beginners, as I think it is a great introductory temperature lube, that doesn’t have too many features that would overwhelm a first time user. However, it is no the thickest lube on the market, so I wouldn’t recommend it for rigorous sexual activity, like anal for example. If you wanted a thicker lube, I would recommend the Intimate Earth Melt Warming lube instead. With Fleshlube’s fun packaging and compatibility with all sex toy and condom materials, it’s a great lube that adds a little more excitement to your bedroom fun!
Most intense heat Intimate Earth Mojo Horny Goat Weed Warming Lube
If you’re looking for something hot, then this lube is definitely the one for you! The Mojo Horny Goat Weed Warming lube is a thick, water-based lube that heats up when friction occurs by rubbing it fast and hard on the skin. It is compatible with all sex toys materials and condom types, as well as being thick enough for more rigorous activities, like using large toys or for anal sex, in my opinion. Out of all the lubes, I think the packaging design is the best – an eye-catching and attractive design that entices you to buy the product. This lube has a neutral pH reading of 7, and also having a slight sweet taste. This lube is perfect for you if you’re looking for a warming lube that really gets you feeling warm, as well as a great match for those large anal toys!
Pros
- ✅ It warms up to make sex more sensual
- ✅ It can increase initial arousal
Cons
- ❌ It can become tacky, quickly
- ❌ Needs constant re-application
Why I Chose It
Feeling hot hot hot! This fiery lube will be sure to make you feeling hot under the collar – I loved it! It is a thick lube that definitely coats toys and cushions. It feels hot on the skin which is exciting and more stimulating than other, more basic lubes, which I loved, especially as someone who enjoys temperature play! If you’re someone who doesn’t like intense heat, then maybe start of with a lube that doesn’t get too warm, like the Fleshlube Fire. The Intimate Earth bottle designs are my favourite! They are so eye-catching and I think the bottle design is very important, as for me it is a big selling point! It’s one of the pricer lubes on the market, but I think it is worth it. One of my favourites on the market!
Flavoured Intimate Earth Melt Warming Lube
The Intimate Earth Melt warming lube is a temperature lube that heats up when friction occurs. It is a thick, coating lube that would be perfect for large sex toys, yet I wouldn’t recommend it for anal toys as the lube becomes slightly sticky when too much friction occurs. It comes in a plastic bottle with a decoratively designed bottle, that is easy to squeeze and use. This lube has a neutral pH balance of 7 and is compatible with all sex toy materials and condom types!
Pros
- ✅ The packaging is eye-catching and appealing
- ✅ It warms up to an appealing temperature
- ✅ It can be used with all sex toys
Cons
- ❌ It constantly has to be activated to feel warm
- ❌ It doesn't get very hot
- ❌ It separates and almost dries up on the skin
Why I Chose It
If you’re looking for a lube that does it all; coats sex toys, warms you up AND tastes good?! Then this is your lucky day. Make it feel like Christmas every day, with this tasty cinnamon lube! I love the way it is so thick and coating on the skin and on sex toys, it really lasts for a long time and you don’t have to re-apply often! The warming features on this lube are quite intense, so if you were looking for something a little less warm, then I would recommend the System JO warming lube. Yet, if you were looking for something really hot, I would choose the older brother of the 2 intimate earth warming lubes; the Mojo Horny Goat Weed warming lube. That certainly steams things up!
