ID Free is a water-based lube made without glycerin, parabens or the other common additives that sensitive skin tends to react to. It's a sensible pick for anyone who reads labels. ID Lubricants formulated it to keep a long-lasting, natural-feeling glide even without them, which is where many stripped-back lubes fall short. This 8.5 oz bottle suits regular users, couples and anyone who wants one gentle lube for bodies, toys and condoms.
Glycerin and parabens are two of the most common ingredients in water-based lubricants. Glycerin makes a formula feel slick and slightly sweet, and parabens keep it from spoiling, but some people find either one irritating. ID Free removes both, along with benzoic acid, propylene glycol, petrochemicals and alcohol. It's also fragrance-free, colourless and free from hormones, and ID describes it as a hypoallergenic formula for sensitive skin. If ordinary lubes have left you itchy or uncomfortable, a stripped-back formula like this is the obvious thing to try.
Glycerin-free lubes have a reputation for drying out quickly or feeling thin. ID built Free to fix that, using thickeners like hydroxyethylcellulose and carbomer to give a smooth, long-lasting slip with a natural feel. It goes on clear, with no scent and, thanks to a little sucralose, no bitter taste. Like any water-based formula it will slowly absorb into skin; rather than adding a big new layer, a few drops of water or a light reapplication usually brings it back.
ID says Free is safe on silicone and rubber toys and compatible with natural rubber latex, so it works with latex condoms and your silicone vibrators or dildos. That's the main advantage of water over silicone as a base: one bottle covers bodies, toys and condoms. It's non-staining and rinses off with plain water, so sheets, skin and toys clean up easily. It also makes a good massage-to-sex bridge for couples: unlike oil, there's nothing to wash off before you reach for a condom or a toy.
For anal play, a water-based formula works well, but you'll need more than you would vaginally and you'll need to reapply more often, because the anus doesn't make its own lubrication. Apply to both the toy or partner and the body. A small dispenser or a towel by the bed saves fumbling mid-session, and with an 8.5 oz bottle there's no need to ration it.
This is the large size. It suits couples and regular users, or anyone who has already tried ID Free and knows it suits them. Keep the cap closed between uses and store it at room temperature, away from direct sunlight, and wipe the nozzle clean now and then so it doesn't get gummy. Before trying any new lube, put a small amount on your inner arm and wait a while to check for a reaction.
