FDA-Cleared Aloe Vera Lube - Natural Vaginal Lubricant for Intimate Wellness

Aloe vera lube contains over 75 active compounds that support vaginal health: polysaccharides for deep hydration, amino acids for tissue repair, natural antimicrobials for gentle protection, and vitamins for antioxidant support. Unlike petroleum-based products that just coat the surface, aloe vera lube compounds penetrate deep into tissue where real healing occurs. Plus, aloe vera lube naturally works with pH balancing for vaginal compatibility.

A healthy vaginal pH ranges from 3.8 to 4.5—distinctly acidic. This acidity is your body's primary defense against harmful bacteria and yeast infections. Lactobacilli bacteria thrive in acidic environments while producing lactic acid that maintains it. Many commercial lubricants have pH 7-8 (neutral to alkaline), which disrupts this balance and allows harmful bacteria to flourish. Aloe Glide's pH 4.5 supports rather than disrupts your natural protective acidity.

Osmolality determines how a lubricant interacts with your vaginal tissue at the cellular level. The WHO recommends vaginal products be iso-osmolar (260-380 mOsm/kg). Hyperosmolar lubricants (most commercial brands test at 5000+ mOsm/kg) draw water out of vaginal cells, causing cellular damage, inflammation, and increased infection risk. Aloe Glide at 308 mOsm/kg mimics your body's natural fluid concentration, protecting cellular integrity while providing effective lubrication.

Yes. Aloe Glide is trusted by the IC/BPS community for bladder-friendly intimate care. The preservative-conscious formula with natural preservation won't trigger bladder flares. Many IC/BPS patients find gentle relief for external vulvar discomfort while managing their condition. It's designed to complement your Desert Harvest routine without causing additional irritation.

Absolutely! Vaginal dryness affects all-day comfort, not just intimacy. Many women use Aloe Glide as a daily vaginal moisturizer—applying in the morning for ongoing comfort, before exercise to prevent friction irritation, or during pelvic floor physical therapy. The gentle, FDA-cleared formula is specifically designed for unlimited daily use without causing irritation or buildup.

FDA clearance as a medical device means Aloe Glide has met rigorous safety and efficacy standards specifically for vaginal moisturizing and lubrication. This isn't just a cosmetic product—it's a cleared medical device for managing vaginal dryness from menopause, hormonal changes, and intimate health conditions. FDA clearance validates both the formulation science and manufacturing quality standards.

Most drugstore lubricants contain petroleum derivatives, synthetic preservatives (parabens), glycerin (feeds yeast), and have wrong pH (7-8) and hyperosmolar formulations (5000+ mOsm/kg) that damage cells. Aloe Glide uses 100% organic aloe vera, natural preservation, pH 4.5, and iso-osmolar 308 mOsm/kg formulation. Plus, FDA medical device clearance validates safety and efficacy—most drugstore products are just cosmetics without medical standards.

Yes, specifically formulated for menopausal vaginal changes. Declining estrogen causes tissue thinning, reduced lubrication, and increased pH (becoming more alkaline). Aloe Glide's pH 4.5 helps restore protective acidity, while organic aloe's amino acids and polysaccharides support thinning tissue. The gentle formulation provides relief without synthetic hormones, making it safe for daily use during menopause.

Yes, Aloe Glide is compatible with latex and polyisoprene condoms. The water-based formula won't degrade barrier protection like oil-based lubricants can. This makes it safe for STI prevention and birth control while providing effective, body-safe lubrication.

Due to marshmallow root in the formula, the product may change texture if exposed to freezing temperatures. This doesn't affect safety or effectiveness—simply store at room temperature and avoid refrigeration. For customers in cold climates or during winter months, consider shipping to a controlled temperature location (P.O. box or office) to prevent packages from being left in below-freezing temperatures for extended periods.
