Best For:
- Extended intimate sessions
- Couples seeking a thicker consistency
- Anyone who finds water-based lubes dry out too quickly
- Versatile play (external and internal use)
- Experienced users looking for long-lasting glide
Elbow Grease Original Cream is a thick, petroleum-based lubricant that's been a staple in intimate wellness for decades. The 15-ounce tub offers exceptional value for regular users, with a creamy texture that stays slick far longer than typical water-based formulas. Unlike lighter lubes that require frequent reapplication, this cream maintains its cushioning glide through extended play.
The petroleum base creates a protective barrier that won't evaporate or absorb into skin, making it ideal for marathon sessions or anal play where sustained lubrication matters most. Users appreciate the control the cream consistency provides—it stays where you put it rather than dripping or running. The tub format makes application easy, whether you're using fingers or scooping out what you need for toy prep.
This isn't a multi-purpose product: the oil base means it's strictly for use with polyurethane or non-latex barriers, and cleanup requires soap and water rather than a quick rinse. If you prioritize longevity and cushioning over quick cleanup, the trade-off is worthwhile.

How to Use
Scoop a small amount with clean fingers and warm between hands before applying to desired areas. Reapply as needed, though the petroleum base typically requires less frequent touch-ups than water-based lubes. Remove with soap and warm water after use—petroleum doesn't rinse away with water alone.
Compatibility
- Latex condoms: Not compatible—petroleum degrades latex and causes breakage
- Polyurethane condoms: Safe to use
- Silicone toys: Safe—petroleum won't damage silicone surfaces
- Cleanup: Requires soap and water; leaves residue on fabric
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes Elbow Grease Original Cream different from water-based lubes? The petroleum base stays slick for hours without reapplication, unlike water-based formulas that absorb or evaporate. It's thicker and provides more cushioning for extended or intense play.
Can I use Elbow Grease Original Cream with latex condoms? No—petroleum degrades latex and causes condoms to break. Use only with polyurethane or non-latex barriers.
How do I clean up after using Elbow Grease Original Cream? Petroleum doesn't rinse away with water alone. Use soap and warm water on skin, and launder any fabric that contacts the lube.
