Sliquid Oceanics is a natural lubricant with an aloe base and seaweed-derived thickeners, part of the Sliquid Organics line. Where most water-based lubes rely on glycerin or synthetic polymers for body, Oceanics gets its slip from carrageenan, agar and guar gum, with nori among the ingredients. This listing is the 4.2 oz bottle.

A plant-based ingredient list

Sliquid's full list is: organic aloe barbadensis decolorized leaf juice (reconstituted), organic agar agar, carrageenan, organic nori, organic guar gum, organic hibiscus extract, organic flax extract, organic green tea extract, organic sunflower seed extract, potassium sorbate and citric acid. Aloe replaces plain water as the base, and carrageenan gives the product its marine character and its name. Carrageenan and agar both come from red seaweed and are the same thickeners used in many foods; guar comes from a bean. Sliquid makes Oceanics without glycerin, parabens, glycols, PEG, sorbitol or sulfates, and describes it as vegan-friendly.

How it feels

Sliquid says Oceanics is blended to work with the body's own natural lubrication, and its seaweed and guar thickeners give it more body than plain water without the greasy film an oil leaves behind. Like any water-based formula it will soak in over a long session; a splash of water or a little more lube brings it back. No flavouring is added.

Toys and condoms

Sliquid lists Oceanics as compatible with latex, rubber, plastic and silicone toys, so it's an easy match for a silicone vibrator, a glass dildo or a hard plastic bullet. Water-based formulas are the usual pairing for latex condoms as well. It washes away with warm water and a little mild soap, and Sliquid describes it as non-staining.

Using a natural lubricant day to day

Begin with a small amount on your fingertips and apply it to wherever you need it, whether that's skin, a toy or the outside of a condom. Add more as you go rather than starting with a handful. For penetration, coat both the toy and the body. Store the bottle at room temperature with the cap closed; because it uses plant ingredients and simple preservatives, keeping it away from heat and sun helps it stay fresh.

Who it suits

Oceanics suits people who read labels and want plant ingredients they recognise, couples looking for one lube that works with their silicone toys, and anyone who has found glycerin-based lubes sticky. It's less suited to long sessions in the shower, where water rinses it away; a silicone formula holds up better there. If you dislike any gel-like body, a thinner liquid may feel lighter. And if a partner has a known sensitivity to any plant extract, check the full list together first.

Choosing between Sliquid lubes

Oceanics is for shoppers who want an organic, plant-heavy list. If you want the plainest possible water-based formula, Sliquid H2O is the classic option. If Oceanics becomes a regular, the 8.5 oz Oceanics is the larger bottle of the same formula.

Helpful Information

Frequently Asked Questions

Helpful answers about Sliquid Oceanics Lubricant.

What is Sliquid Oceanics made of?

It's aloe-based and thickened with seaweed ingredients: carrageenan, agar agar and nori, plus organic guar gum and extracts of hibiscus, flax, green tea and sunflower. Potassium sorbate and citric acid preserve it. There's no glycerin or parabens.

Is Oceanics safe with silicone toys?

Yes. Sliquid lists it as compatible with silicone toys as well as latex, rubber and plastic. As a water-based formula it won't react with a silicone surface, so it's a good everyday lube for your toy collection.

How is Oceanics different from Sliquid H2O?

Both are water-based and glycerin-free. H2O is the simpler formula built on purified water and plant cellulose. Oceanics uses aloe juice as its base and adds seaweed thickeners and organic plant extracts, so it suits shoppers who want an organic ingredient list.

Can I use it with condoms?

Water-based lubricants are the standard choice with latex condoms, and Sliquid lists Oceanics as latex compatible. Apply it to the outside once the condom is on, and avoid using oils at the same time.

Does Sliquid Oceanics taste of anything?

No flavouring or sweetener appears on the ingredient list, so it isn't a flavoured lube. If you want a lube for oral play with a definite taste, Sliquid's Swirl range is flavoured.

Why does it feel tacky after a while?

All water-based lubes thicken as the water evaporates or soaks in. Add a few drops of water to bring the glide back, or reapply a little. If you need longer staying power, a hybrid like Sliquid Silk lasts longer.
