Lubricant & gelatine!! - Sexual Health - General Message Board

Hi everyone,
does lubricant gels such as KY-jelly contain gelatine??? If that is the case, are there any that don't contain it?

Thank you!

As far as I know, no lubes contain gelatin. Most contain water, glycerin, and some sort of preservatives. I would highly recommend NOT using KY, though; too gloppy, dries up too fast, and tastes horrible. Instead, try Astroglide or Probe. I can also tell you that neither of those have been tested on animals :-)

The absolute BEST lube is Astoglide!!!!! Not sticky ad very silky! And it doesn't contain glelatin. Are you vegan by any chance?

oil based lubes are the best not sticky they dont dry up as quickly. but no there is no gelitin in ky jelly it is just called jelly because that is what it feels like. try the ky warming liquid it is great.

FYI "oil based" lubricants will DESTROY/COMPRIMISE LATEX!!!!!!! NEVER use anything oil based with a condom. And astroglide does not dry up and is not sticky.
