02Why cool?

JO H2O Cool is water based with French menthol. That gives a cool, tingly feel on the skin. Think peppermint rather than heat. The ingredient behind it is on the list: Mentha Piperita leaf extract.

The brand says the formula is soft like silicone without being sticky. It contains no silicone, wax or oil, which is why it suits latex condoms and all kinds of toys.

The list also names glycerin and propylene glycol. That is simply info for anyone who is sensitive to them. The feeling is intense, so start with a little and see what you think.

03Which lube suits what?

Four kinds you will meet in this list. The base of the product decides which toys it goes with.

Type	What it is	Goes with	Watch out	Cleaning up
Water basedthis one	Light and wet, the default choice	Latex condoms and every toy, silicone included	Dries faster, so add a little more	Rinses off with water
Silicone and hybrid	Silicone stays slick for long, hybrid mixes water and silicone	Latex condoms. Silicone toys only with a hybrid that says so	Pure silicone based lube can damage silicone toys	Warm water and soap, silicone based takes a little more effort
Flavoured or scented	For the playful side, with a scent or taste	Check the pack for condoms and toys	Read whether it is meant for anal use too	Rinse with water
Cleaner	A spray for your toy after use, not a lube	Silicone, rubber and latex toys (according to LELO)	Keep it away from your eyes and do not swallow it	Spray, leave briefly and wipe off

A general guide. Always read the pack of your own product.
