This is not a straightforward question to answer as there are dozens of different anti-chafe producta on the consumer market.
Not all products are created equal. Überlube is highly regulated requiring certifications and registration with the FDA and similar governmental regulators in other countries. All of überlube's locations are FDA registered and the products are 510(k) approved. It is important to check that any lube has this registration before purchasing.
Überlube is also manufactured by Überlube allowing for the careful selection and oversight of the ingredients and manufacturing processes. Many lubricant brands outsource their manufacturing and bottling processes to factories they do not own or manage - not überlube!
It is our mission to have superior performance and be transparent in all that we do (like our clear bottle!). We don't market with gimmicks. Our product both feels and looks good.
Überlube is silicone with a trace of vitamin E to improve the finish and leave a smooth sensation.
- Dimethicone
- Dimethiconol
- Cyclomethicone
- Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E)
We package überlube in a high-quality, sealed glass bottle. Glass is inert and impermeable and we use only borosilicate grade glass (also known as Pyrex), which tends to be more durable. This type of glass is commonly used in pharmaceuticals to store liquids for long periods of time.
The crimped top ensures überlube is biostatic, meaning once we bottle überlube, it stays the same throughout the life of the product - nothing can contaminate or be added thus guaranteeing you a consistently excellent experience down to the last drop.
Lastly, we believe and many of our customers agree that the glass bottle brings beauty to the product.
All überlube ingredients are free of gluten, glycerin, alcohol, parabens, scents and flavors.
Überlube is designed to be directly dispensed so you don't have to worry about fumbling (or losing) a cap when timing is important. Each bottle is crimped at the neck to preserve the biostatic nature of überlube preventing anything from getting inside.
If you are looking for ultimate durability, our Good-To-Go travelers come with a protective case and a cap since they are meant for mobility and everyday use.
Osmolality and pH are generally more of a topic related with water-based lubricants. Überlube is anhydrous, meaning without water, so it doesn't have pH or osmolality.
Überlube has been shown in a clinical study to be non-sensitizing to skin.
Überlube is silicone-based with a small amount of Vitamin E. Silicone allergies are quite rare and the type of Vitamin E used (non-seed oil derived) in the formula is specifically selected to avert any irritation or allergies.
Überlube prides itself on simple ingredients with superior performance without preservatives or added ingredients like scents, flavors, or spermicides, which may cause irritation.
Überlube has an expiration date of 3 years from the production date. This date is conveniently engraved on the bottom of your bottle or Good-to-Go insert.
The specific lot number for traceability is also engraved in this location as well.
When your bottle of überlube is low and you want those last few silky drops, we recommend the following technique:
1) Position the pump nozzle to be aligned with the bottom of the dip tube
2) Tilt the bottle slightly so the dip tube is in the remaining liquid.
3) Now pump! Voila! You'll get überlube instead of air.
When you buy a new bottle of überlube you'll notice that the dip tube is already aligned with the pump nozzle. It sometimes rotates when used and can be rotated back into the aligned position when needed.
We also have this handy tutorial on YouTube to help illustrate the technique.
Yes, überlube is vegan and cruelty free.
