This lubricant is made from Dimethicone and Dimethiconol, Cyclomethicone. It is silky and tends to feel like oil (but it's not). You can use it for shaving or as a moisturizer too. I would recommend it for every day vaginal dryness. It is not as slippery as a water based lubricant. There is no taste or smell. Also, it may stain clothing or bedding. A little goes a long way - just a couple of drops!
