Sliquid Naturals Silver is a pharmaceutical grade silicone lubricant, and it sits at the premium end of Sliquid’s Naturals range. This is the larger 255ml bottle, a good option if you already know Silver works for you and want to keep a bigger supply on hand, since only a few drops are needed per use.

Why people choose this lubricant

Silver is built for staying power. Because it is silicone based rather than water based, it does not absorb into the skin or dry out the way a water based lubricant can, so it stays slick for much longer with only a small amount. It is also 100% waterproof, which makes it a popular choice for use in the bath or shower. It is unscented and easy to clean up afterwards with ordinary soap and water. The 255ml bottle works out as better value per millilitre than the smaller size, which suits anyone who uses it regularly.

Ingredients and safety

The formula is a blend of Dimethicone, Dimethiconol and Cyclopentasiloxane. It is 100% vegan, hypoallergenic and free from glycerin and parabens. Being silicone based, it is safe to use with latex condoms, but it should not be used with silicone toys, as silicone lubricant can degrade the surface of silicone material over time. Pair it instead with toys made from glass, metal, ABS plastic or elastomer, or use a water based lubricant alongside silicone toys.

Size and fit

This listing is for the larger 255ml bottle. Because silicone lubricant is so concentrated, a little goes a long way, so this size can last through a great many uses before needing to be replaced. It comes in a squeeze bottle for controlled, drop by drop application.

Getting started

Start with just a few drops, since silicone lubricant is far more concentrated than water based formulas.
Spread it evenly over the area, allowing it a moment to warm slightly against the skin.
Top up only if needed, as it typically outlasts water based lubricants through a full session without reapplication.
Clean up afterwards with soap and warm water, or a specific silicone lube cleaner if residue remains on skin.

Storage

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and keep the cap closed between uses.

Delivery

Every order ships in plain, unbranded packaging with fast UK delivery, so nothing on the outside of the parcel gives away what is inside.

Frequently asked questions

Is this lubricant safe to use with condoms? Yes. Silicone based lubricants like this one are safe to use alongside latex condoms.

Can I use this with silicone toys? No. Silicone lubricant should not be used with silicone toys, as it can break down the surface of the silicone over time. Choose a water based lubricant for silicone toys, or use this one with glass, metal, ABS plastic or elastomer toys instead.

Does silicone lubricant stain fabric? It can leave marks on some fabrics, including bedding, so it is worth using a towel underneath or washing affected fabric promptly.

Is the 255ml bottle better value than the 125ml? Yes, the larger bottle generally works out cheaper per millilitre, and since only a small amount is needed per use, it can last a long time.

Is it easy to wash off? It cleans up with soap and water, though it may take slightly more effort than a water based formula since it does not dissolve in water alone.
