Koala: Papaya Mango, S'mores, and Strawberry Margarita

Today I'll be looking at three flavored lubricants from Nature Lovin' Lubricants' Koala line. Click either image to see a larger version!

The Koala line is fairly extensive with flavors like Mojito, Tiramisu, and Orange Creamsickle. I requested the chance to review some of the Koala line, as I'd already tried the Raspberry Chessecake- and it was wicked delicious. Unfortunately the flavors I tested, weren't as awesome.

Strawberry Margarita was the worst, tasting disturbingly similar to cough syrup. The S'mores flavor is good, but really sweet, and I didn't want more than a few licks of it. Finally Papaya Mango was my favorite of the bunch with a lovely mango aftertaste- though I still preferred the Raspberry Cheesecake flavor. Koala does offer sample packets, or taste buds, so you can pick out your favorite before committing to an entire bottle.

Scent-wise, all of the flavors' scents matched, and were fairly strong. These lubes are on the thin side, and with rubbing quickly absorb into skin. These are glycerin and paraben free. As these are water-based lubricants, they don't stain, can be washed away easily, and are safe to use with any toys.

Due to the thinness and absorbancy rate, I wouldn't advise the Koala line for anything other than oral play. Depending on flavor, some of the Koala line will make genitals taste like their flavor, while others won't. With these three, the S'mores and Strawberry Margarita masked, and the Papaya Mango did not. As with any lubricant, I would recommend testing for an allergic reaction on one's wrist or upper thigh before using genitally.

 Size comparison:

This flavored and scented towelette is a one-time use product designed to improve oral sex. For ingredients, there are no parabens or glycerin, though if any irritation occurs one should stop using it. The towelette is around hand size for myself, so application is easy. The slight dampness makes it so one can glide the towelette over a body.

The flavor I tested out is Succulent Strawberry, and currently other flavors are being created. I found the scent rather sweet, and a tiny bit cloying. After wiping the towelette on any patch of skin, it takes on the strawberry scent for a little over an hour. The flavor's taste unfortunately didn't apply as well as the scent. It was only noticeable after being applied recently, and wasn't a strong taste. If you wanted to use this product to make someone's genitals taste like strawberries, it simply won't do.¹ If you want to make genitals smell like strawberries though, it will succeed at that. This also holds for other bodily areas, though the taste comes through a little more, it still isn't that strong.

Ingredients: Water, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Stevia Rebaudiana Extract, Citric Acid, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Benzoate, Flavor 

This product doesn't interfere with condom use, dental dams, or gloves. It's worth remembering that it does not prevent STI transmission. All in all, this product may improve your oral sex life if you would be more comfortable if your or your partner(s) genitals smelled different. However, if you want semen or vaginal fluids to taste slightly sweeter, this product won't help.

¹ A better choice for taste would be any of Sliquid's Swirl line, I especially like the Green Apple and Pink Lemonade.
