Boy Butter Original Formula is a creamy, coconut-oil-based lube in a 4 oz tub. Like most oil-based lube, it stays slick for a long time, but it goes clear on the skin, rinses off with water and is safe on silicone toys according to the maker. It's a long-time favourite for masturbation and anal play, and for anyone who finds thin gels dry out too soon.
Straight from the tub, Boy Butter looks and feels like a thick, white cream. That's because Boy Butter homogenizes its coconut-oil-based formula into an emulsion. Rub it between your fingers and it warms, melts and goes clear on the skin, so it stops looking like a cream almost straight away. The texture is smooth and light rather than greasy, with enough body to give a little friction where you want it. Most people find a small scoop goes further than they expect, which makes a 4 oz tub last a good while.
Water-based lube can dry out and need topping up. Boy Butter says its Original formula lasts as long as silicone lubes, which is why so many people reach for it during long masturbation sessions or anal play, when stopping to reapply breaks the flow. Because it's thick, it also stays where you put it instead of running off.
Boy Butter calls this formula silicone-toy safe, which is unusual for an oil-based lube: many oils and creams are fine on skin but not on toys. It is not compatible with latex condoms, because oil weakens latex. If you use condoms, choose non-latex ones such as polyurethane or polyisoprene; check the packaging of your brand. Cleanup is easier than with plain oils, which can cling to skin and bedding for days. The maker says it washes off skin and fabrics with water, so it won't leave the greasy marks you get with coconut oil from the kitchen.
Scoop a small amount with clean fingers, warm it between your hands, then apply. For masturbation, start with about a fingertip's worth and add as needed. For anal play, apply generously to both the toy or partner and the entrance, and reapply before deeper penetration. Boy Butter also works for a full-body massage, so the same tub can come out earlier in the evening. Keep the lid closed and the tub away from heat, since oil-based creams soften in a warm room. If it has separated or melted, stir it gently and let it cool; it firms back up at room temperature. A tub also travels well because it can't leak like a pump bottle.
The formula is plant-based and non-toxic, and Boy Butter describes it as edible, though it isn't flavoured. The ingredients are partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, glycerin, polysorbate 60, tocopheryl acetate (vitamin E), glyceryl stearate and phenyl trimethicone. If you're sensitive to glycerin or any of these, patch-test on your inner arm first.
