Preservative-free lubricants - 5/3/2008 10:41:42 PM

Status: offline 		I have a severe reaction to parabens, which are used as preservatives in just about every type of cream or liquid in the drug industry--hand cream, local anasthesia, shampoo, etc.

Does anyone know of a substitute for K-Y, which contain parabens? I do use Vaseline, but I'm looking for something more of a cream.

I've asked several doctors/pharmasists, all who look at me blankly, and googled it, with no luck so far.

A little goes a long way.) It isn't a cream, it's a clear and slightly viscous liquid - but it might be a good starting place until you find something that's really good for your particular needs.

those are all paraben free


Astroglide now makes a paraben free formula as does Wet Naturals and Sliquid H2O as well.

this one has aloe:

many of the silicone lubes do not contain parabens but you can not use them with silicone toys.

Status: offline 		i've gotten excellent results and no reaction to coconut oil.  its a semi-solid that melts at body temperature, you can use it warmed as a massage oil, its good for the skin, nails, and hair, and its not really hard to wash off.
