Lubricant is Supposed to Feel Good, Not Irritate!

August 31st, 2010

lesrolo asks “What is the best personal lubricant. Tried K-Y but ended up with a severe irritation around the vaginal openin [sic]” on Yahoo! Answers. We’re biased about the first part, and definitely have some thoughts about the second!

When talking about something you’re going to put on or into your body, we think the term “best” needs to include being beneficial to your health and free from harmful chemicals. This seems to be especially important for those delicate and personal areas where natural, organic Aloe Cadabra is meant to go!

Check out this chart for a simple reference of some things to look out for in personal lubricants!:

Paraben-Free Aloe Vera Gel?

August 19th, 2010

From Yahoo! Answers, Acrabatic-Alien asks:
Is there a paraben-free aloe vera gel? I’m trying to find some aloe vera gel that is paraben-free, but I can’t find any anywhere.

First of all, we love that you’re conscious enough about what’s going on your body to even ask the question! Aloe vera is amazing stuff with all sorts of healthy applications, and when it comes to the delicate tissues in intimate areas, we humbly recommend Aloe Cadabra, which is 95% organic aloe vera, and is paraben- and lots-of-other-stuff-free too!

Is Lubricant Safe Enough To Eat?

August 17th, 2010

fcrabezvaqex asked the following on Yahoo! Answers:
“Is K-Y Lubricant (or other store brand personal lubricant) safe if swallowed?”

terrydbouvier answered “KY is just water and cellulose. Although it’s not intended to be eaten, it’s harmless if ingested”, but we think it’s wise to be more clear and cautious than that. Most personal lubricant brands have more than one formula, with a variety of features and ingredients. Some formulas of KY, for example, contain chemicals used primarily as food preservatives and in cleaning solutions and automotive antifreeze.

By contrast, not only is it all right to ingest Aloe Cadabra®, many people find that aloe is a great way to aid with digestion. In fact, there are numerous health drinks made with raw aloe. We’re not recommending that you make a beverage from Aloe Cadabra®, but everything in it is “food grade” and certified organic for your health and safety. Good to know, huh?

To check in on the chemical and toxic contents of a wide variety of personal products, we like to recommend the Environmental Working Group’s Cosmetics Database, so you can inform yourself about what’s in the products you’re putting on – and into – your body! We’ve written before about the importance of choosing healthful products for your body, here and here.

Sex Accessory Review: Aloe Cadabra with Vitamin E!

August 10th, 2010
Jenn likes Tahitian Vanilla the best!

Jenn likes Tahitian Vanilla the best!

Jenn has reviewed Aloe Cadabra before, so we asked her to try out our new, longer-lasting formula with Vitamin E…of course, she said yes!

What I like about Aloe Cadabra is that it feels good. A lot of personal lubricants tend to be sticky, gooey, and gloppy. Dan and I don’t use lubricants very often, except for anal play or occasionally for masturbation, so while we’re not reaching for lubricant every day, we use it enough to have experienced the general stickiness of a lot of lubes. Aloe Cadabra doesn’t have that stickiness. It has the consistency of hand sanitizer, though it is much creamier. Just a small amount, about a dime-sized worth glop, is enough, though of course for certain activities it never hurts to use a bit more.

Getting The Oven Hot Enough

August 3rd, 2010

Another great review from eroticconsumer.com! Sweet Pea gave Aloe Cadabra a try, and then gave us 9 out of 10 stars with this to say:

I really enjoyed this lube. I really love anything with aloe, and the light scent of vanilla was very pleasant. The packaging was very nice. It was very easy to apply whether using it alone or with a toy. I did not need to reapply as it was very effective in getting the oven hot enough to not need to reapply. I would definitely use this lube again and again. I do prefer a lubricant that allows me to enjoy what the purpose of lube is for, and this product did that for me. Very enjoyable.

Natural Lubricant Treats Burns and Wounds

July 27th, 2010

Reviewer Onyx Sakura at Erotic Consumer gives Aloe Cadabra 9/10 stars for being not only a slick and soothing sexual lubricant, but for treating a burn wound with the magic of aloe vera!

This very soft and gentle lubricant provides a very sensual and enjoyable experience. I used it with an adult sex toy on a not-too-excited moment and had no issues. The lavender scent definitely assisted with a more calming sense. It is translucent in color, so no worries in regards to staining… A definite plus! As it is Aloe based, I used it on my daughter when she received a burn on her arm. She LOVED it and especially the scent! It glided on so softly that it was easier to help her treat the wound, and not as potentially painful. Though it did take a bit longer to dry than the traditional treatment aloes.The bottle was easy to get into with just a flip top lid. Pressure on the container provided as much or as little as needed. It doesn’t just run out of the bottle or leak!

Organic Personal Lubricant: The Aloe Cadabra® Story

June 9th, 2010

Rinaldo and Lalla Brutoco, founders of Aloe Cadabra® organic personal lubricant, have been on the leading edge of natural health and wellness for many years. Committed to organic principles since before organic certification came into being, they have pursued wellness as a lifestyle, personally and professionally. In the early 90s they created Red Rose Naturals, which produced the first all natural Aloe beverage, Aloe Springs™. They also produced one of the first whole food supplements, formulated by well respected research scientist and formulator of Rainbow Light Products, Patrick Baily. Always a step ahead of the curve, the Brutocos, owners of Seven Oaks Farm, launch their newest product, Aloe Cadabra® organic personal lubricant, at the perfect time!

The Brutocos moved to the charming town of Ojai over a decade ago, and purchased a stunning, 11-acre hillside ranch. They planted their first crop of a special variety of Aloe vera, barbadensis, which is primarily grown for medicinal purposes. They had the perfect environment to grow Aloe, and soon had a generous crop for personal and commercial use. In those early days they used the Aloe privately as a beverage, personal lubricant, and to treat scrapes, burns and various skin irritations for farm workers, friends and family. They also sold Aloe to a local company for production purposes, and sold fresh Aloe leaf at the local Ojai Farmers Market. They had an abundance of Aloe in their life!

Rinaldo, a scientist at heart, was well aware of the anti-bacterial, anti-microbial and anti-fungal properties of Aloe, but he did not know why it was such a great lubricant, or why it had a healing effect on the vaginal tissue. As he began researching Aloe he learned that as women age, delicate vaginal skin becomes less pliable, and little microscopic cracks develop, leaving the skin vulnerable to infection. During sexual intercourse these tissues are exposed, and because they are typically not maintained at a healthy pH level, they are especially subject to infection. The organic Aloe in Aloe Cadabra® personal lubricant lowers the pH on the surface of the skin and helps to heal the tissue while creating a barrier to opportunistic infections.

The Brutocos are advocates of the power of Aloe based on their personal experience, and they believe their product is the perfect personal lubricant. Testimonials confirm that Aloe Cadabra® organic Aloe works for women experiencing stress or infection due to vaginal dryness from aging. Younger women can use Aloe Cadabra® to enhance health and hygiene as well as for pleasure.

If you or someone you know is riddled with bladder or vaginal yeast infections, try Aloe Cadabra® as an easy-to-use, non-toxic solution. Sadly, the vast majority of products offered in the marketplace that address these infections are chemical or petroleum based. These products are not geared to healing; rather, they mask the symptoms for a period of time, and can aggravate existing infections. Though we don’t know the long-term effects of using chemically based personal lubricants, we do know that the Brutoco’s organic all natural approach with Aloe Cadabra® works.

For many years Rinaldo and Lalla shared their secret use of Aloe with a close circle of friends who were grateful for the discovery. After years of experimenting, Lalla decided it was her moral imperative to share this with the sisterhood, and Aloe Cadabra® was born!

Its fun being in the personal lubricant business, Aloe Cadabra® is a real ice breaker, and talking about it elicits a giggle response. It’s super fun to share and helps people loosen up! Next thing you know people are comparing notes on their experience using it. Try it yourself, share it with your friends, and do let us know how you like it please!

Aloe Cadabra® is the sweetest, cleanest, safest, personal lubricant available, made with only pure, organic Aloe vera, and a small amount of food grade preservative. It’s edible! Aloe Cadabra® is now enriched with Vitamin E, which has anti-aging properties for skin.

It’s easy to order Aloe Cadabra®, available in Natural Aloe, French Lavender or Tahitian Vanilla, for $9.95 a bottle at aloecadabra.com, or call 800 – 961 – 2563.
