Consumer Safety & Ingredient Information

We believe in being transparent about what goes into our products. Below is an easy-to-understand guide to each ingredient, why we use it, and what you should know about its safety.

1. Water (Purified)

• How we process it:
  Our water goes through three stages for maximum purity:

  1. Water Softener – removes minerals like calcium and magnesium.

  2. Reverse Osmosis (RO) Tank – filters out microscopic impurities, salts, and contaminants.

  3. Distillation – boils and re-condenses the water, leaving behind any remaining particles.

• Why it matters:
  This process ensures our water is among the cleanest you can get—free of heavy metals, microbes, and chemical residues. Clean water is the base of a safe, gentle lubricant.

2. Hydroxyethylcellulose (Thickener)

• What it is: A plant-derived powder that turns water into a smooth gel.

• Why we use it: Gives the product its silky, non-sticky texture.

• Safety: Commonly used in eye drops, lotions, and personal care products. Non-toxic, non-irritating, and hypoallergenic.

3. Xanthan Gum (Stabilizer & Thickener)

• What it is: A natural gum made by fermenting sugar with friendly bacteria.

• Why we use it: Works with hydroxyethylcellulose to give the gel body and stability. Helps prevent separation over time.

• Safety: Widely used in foods (salad dressings, sauces) and cosmetics. Recognized as safe by the FDA.

4. Potassium Sorbate (Preservative)

• What it is: A salt form of sorbic acid, found in nature in some berries.

• Why we use it: Prevents growth of mold, yeast, and harmful microbes in water-based products.

• Safety: Food-grade and used in cheese, wine, and baked goods. Safe at the tiny amounts we use.

5. Sodium Benzoate (Preservative)

• What it is: A sodium salt of benzoic acid.

• Why we use it: Works together with potassium sorbate to keep the product fresh and safe.

• Safety: FDA-approved for foods and beverages. Used in sodas, jams, and condiments. Safe at low levels.

6. Citric Acid (pH Balancer)

• What it is: A natural acid from citrus fruits.

• Why we use it: Helps maintain a skin-friendly pH, making the product comfortable for sensitive areas.

• Safety: Used in food and cosmetics worldwide. Non-toxic and safe at the concentrations used.

7. Riboflavin (Vitamin B2 – Colorant)

• What it is: A natural vitamin with a bright yellow-green glow under UV light.

• Why we use it: Provides natural, food-grade coloring (especially for glow-in-the-dark products).

• Safety: Essential vitamin found in eggs, dairy, and leafy greens. Safe and non-toxic.

8. Food-Safe Colorants & Flavorings (Optional)

• What they are: Dyes and flavors specifically approved for food use.

• Why we use them: To add fun colors and tastes to some specialty products.

• Safety: Only food-grade, FDA-approved ingredients are used. Our unflavored and unscented lubes contain no glycerin or propylene glycol. However, our flavored lubes include trace amounts of these two ingredients as part of the natural flavor base. The levels are extremely small, just enough to carry the flavor, and are considered safe for occasional use. For sensitive users, we recommend limiting flavored lubes to external play or infrequent internal use. No harsh chemicals, no unsafe dyes.

9. Titanium Dioxide (Color & Opacity Agent)

• What it is: A naturally occurring mineral commonly used in foods, cosmetics, and sunscreens.

• Why we use it: Provides a creamy, opaque look to certain products, improving appearance and consistency.

• Safety: Food-grade and FDA-approved for many applications. Non-toxic at the tiny amounts we use and considered safe for topical products.

10. PEG-20 (Emulsifier & Solubilizer)

• What it is: A food- and cosmetic-grade compound made from polyethylene glycol, often used to help mix oil-based ingredients into water.

• Why we use it: Keeps formulas smooth and consistent by helping colors, flavors, or scents blend evenly into the water base.

• Safety: Widely used in lotions, cosmetics, and even oral care products. Non-toxic at the levels we use, and approved for cosmetic and personal care applications.
