I love this lube just knowing the ingredients are amazing! I haven’t found anything better out there. I noticed some people said that it causes burning. They didn’t like there is lactic acid in it. The lactic acid keeps the lube in an acidic pH range (closer to vaginal pH). Their BioNude product page lists a pH ~4.0–4.4, and they describe this as part of their “pH-balancing” approach. This supports the vaginal microbiome (their claim). They explicitly say their proprietary lactic acid blend “nourishes” healthy lactobacilli / supports microbiome balance. pH isn’t the only thing that matters—osmolality and buffering capacity also affect irritation risk, and global procurement guidance has focused on these properties for “safer” lubes. Good Clean Love markets BioNude as iso-osmotic (251–400 mOsm/kg), which is in the “closer to body fluids” direction compared with many mainstream lubes. Even though it’s meant to match vaginal acidity, anything acidic can sting if the tissue is already irritated (microtears, yeast/BV symptoms, postpartum/low estrogen dryness, allergy/irritation from friction, etc.). • Patch test: put a tiny amount on the inner forearm first—if it stings there, your tissue may just not like the formula. • Use less + add moisture: apply a smaller amount, and if needed add a little water (since it’s water-based) to dilute the initial acidity. • Apply after arousal: more natural lubrication = less friction + fewer microtears = less sting. • Avoid right after shaving/sex (when skin is more irritated).

I have IBS and so I've been looking for a lube that doesn't make my anal tissues feel uncomfortable/burn. I found an article saying this stuff is isotonic, hypoallergenic, etc. This is the first lube I have ever used that didn't make me uncomfortable in the slightest. No tingling, no burning, no weird friction, nothing. Most of the products made by this company don't last that long because they are water based and the longetivity is comparable to other water based lubes. I like that it doesn't as slimy or sticky as other lubes though and there is no flavor other than the taste of a water based lube. It is unscented but there's still gonna be a lube smell if you have a sensitive nose. But it's very neutral and not bad. Read more

This is exactly what I need. I have very sensitive skin, and this doesn't irritate my skin. Water-based lubes are the WORST for including ingredients you should never be putting inside your body (even the aloe lube this company creates - aloe is never to be used internally). Bio Nude doesn't contain any glycerin, citric acid, flavors, scents, aloe, dyes, and other garbage that can all cause stinging, burning, inflammation, allergic reactions, and aloe in particular may also cause uterine contractions when you're pregnant. Bio Nude just does it's job and leaves your delicate pH unscathed. Silicone lube cannot be used under all circumstances (such as with many toys and condoms), so I'm glad to have this to use (which honestly gets used more often for me). It does get flaky and thus messy when it dries, so just be aware of needing to wipe down with a moist cloth or hygienic wet wipe to clear excess product when you're done. Read more
This is horrible. It BURNS, is super sticky, and needs reapplying constantly. I tried to save a few bucks over my standby, Wicked Simply Aqua, which I now have to buy on Walmart because Amazon dropped the product. My mistake. The pump applicator on the Wicked is SOOO MUCH BETTER than the squeeze which either over delivers or under delivers. Back to Wicked Simply Aqua. Read more
I have mainly used coconut oil, and occasionally one KY lube. This lasts WAY longer than coconut oil! I was so impressed! Read more
Only for people with enough natural moisture to keep the lube from drying out. Otherwise as it dries it gets very sticky. Read more
This is my favorite lubricant. I am very sensitive to many ingredients, and it doesn't contain all those harmful ingredients. Works great. It was recommended by my OB-GYN. Highly recommended. Read more
