Vanilla Essential Oil in the Natural Aloe Scent

July 23rd, 2011

We recently received the question, why include include Vanilla Essential Oil in the Natural Aloe scented product? We thought others might wonder why as well!

medicine dropperMany people who smell raw aloe don’t enjoy the smell of it. We put an extremely small amount, less than .005% of pure vanilla essential oil in the product to balance the scent so it becomes, essentially, unscented. Our formulation experts have indicated to us that this should have no negative impact to the human body. Our other scents, Tahitian Vanilla and French Lavender, are designed to provide sensory experiences (smells) that enhance the intimate experience, should people enjoy that.

True Pleasures says “Great Slip!”

July 19th, 2011

checklistHere are a few comments that a blogger, True Pleasures, posted about Aloe Cadabra. Thank you True Pleasures, for sharing your thoughts!

Consistency: Aloe Cadabra is basically a gel when you squeeze it out. However, when it warms to body temperature, the consistency will loosen up. It’s very slick and takes quite a while for it to rub into my skin. I’ve had no issues with it gumming up or getting sticky, it just soaks right in.

Duration: Aloe Cadabra has lasted long enough for each one of our uses of it. I have yet to have any issues with it drying out no matter how long our sessions have lasted. If you find that it starts to dry up, you can reactivate it with a wet kiss or a bit of water, therefore saving you lubricant and money.

Packaging: The tube that the Aloe Cadabra comes in is very discreet. It doesn’t say anything anywhere about the contents being a personal lubricant. The only thing printed on the bottle is the picture and “ALOE CADABRA, Natural Aloe”. There is also a SELL BY date sticker on the back. I do like the design of the bottle. It has a flip cap and soft body for easy dispensing, and the upside-down storage method ensures you get to use every drop of it.

Expiration Date: Yes! There is a SELL BY date on the package and the bottle! Very few lubricant companies actually do that. Thank you!

The ingredient list is safe, it has great slip, it’s very moisturizing, and it doesn’t dry out and get gummy.

The Mommy Blog Loves AC’s Look, Feel, and Lack of Antifreeze

July 15th, 2011

The Mommy BlogBrittany over at The Mommy Blog gets nice and real in her recent review of Aloe Cadabra, touching on the delicacy of discussing vaginal dryness in the first place, the personal lubricant retail experience, after-sex cleanup…not to mention that there’s ANTIFREEZE in most lubes!

My hubby and I use a major brand condom and hate the sticky mess it makes and have even opted for other lubrication options in hopes of finding something less messy and gross. We were both pleased when we tried out this product. Aloe Cadabra left me soft, smooth, fresh and not wanting to run to the bathroom to hose off afterwards! Come on ladies, we’ve all been there, right? I felt confident during our encounters and very happy afterwards. Also, I loved the fact that it is 95% organic and I’m not putting horrible chemicals in my body. One active ingredient in 2 major lubricants, but not in Aloe Cadabra is Propylene Glycol, which is a thick chemical used in antifreeze, ANTIFREEZE! Why would you want that in your body?

Plus, it comes in discreet packaging with free shipping: GET SOME!

Ecobold Interviews Aloe Cadabra

July 8th, 2011

Ecobold logoThe good dudes and dudettes over at Ecobold really, really, REALLY care for Mamma Earth and your health. Their goal is to simply change the way products are made, so that they’re safe for you and for our environment after we dispose of them, and they believe that if we unite together we can make change happen.

So we’re honored that they offer Aloe Cadabra along with other fine products! Ecobold recently spoke with us about our story and why it’s important to choose a natural lubricant, as well as whether we prefer bread or chocolate!

Tell us a little bit about your background/story.
One of our founders found herself facing the problem that many women today are facing. Sex wasn’t as pleasurable as it once was. And when she went looking for a lubricant that she felt would be kind to her body, she found the market lacking. So, she did what any woman who cared about what went into her body would do. She figured out what would work better, and then she made it. The result was magic – at least she thought so! As did her husband. Which is why it’s called Aloe Cadabra. Some think the name’s kind of silly. Until, at least, they try it.

Check out the whole interview HERE.

What are people saying about AloeCadabra? “It’s fun, sexy, sensual, sophisticated and it’s all natural. But what is it? To put it simply, Aloe Cadabra® is the first all-natural personal lubricant made with 95% organic Aloe Vera.

Great for one, even better for two and amazingly good for anyone that uses it. It’s not just a lubricant. It is a product for every woman and man who cares (about others and themselves) and is looking for beauty, both inside and out.

As Natural As Nature™ Aloe Cadabra® is enriched with Vitamin E Oil, contains all food grade ingredients and is an outstanding alternative to the myriad of options out there that, according to Time Magazine, often contain chemicals found in industrial antifreeze and oven cleaner. In fact, we score a 1 for toxicity on the website CosmeticsDatabase.org compared to 4 for leading alternatives!

Fact: 95% of women between the ages of 18 -70 report experiencing vaginal dryness at some time in their life!”

Dr. Dorree says, “Treat yourself to some relief with AloeCadabra natural lubricants.

Just Put the Bottle in Front of Him: A Review by Miracle Momas

June 28th, 2011

Sheri over at Miracle Momas was worried about feeling sticky or “dirty” after using a personal lubricant, but her experience with Aloe Cadabra left her impressed!

At first I really wasn’t sure how to approach my husband with using this because we have never had the need to use anything like this before lol. So I just put the bottle in front of him and told him I needed to do a review on it lol.

I have to say that I am really impressed with the fact that i don’t feel “dirty” after using this. The product really feels clean and it really does only take a little. It didn’t leave a sticky feeling either which I have to admit I was really afraid about.

Thanks for the review, Sheri…we’re glad you and your husband loved it!

“It Enhances Every Part of Love Making”

June 23rd, 2011

We’re often asked “Is Aloe Cadabra good for use with enhancement products and toys?” Here is what one satisfied (and exhausted!) customer had to say:

I wanted you to get a long overdue extremely high thumbs-up on the lube. I have been using a lube suggested by the maker of my pump for many years. Your lube feels incredibly better, feels like love in fact. Because of the way it feels, it enhances every part of love making. Also as a natural product, my partner is not as reluctant in tasting it. You’ve got a customer for life.

Try Aloe Cadabra with your favorite toy or intimacy enhancer and tell us what you think at mymagicmoment.com

Childbirth Educator Recommends Aloe Cadabra

June 14th, 2011

Molly, a breastfeeding counselor and childbirth educator over at Talk Birth, recommends Aloe Cadabra as a safe and healthy personal lubricant for new mothers, who occasionally inquire about an “all natural” option. She says it’s import for parents to be cautious and educated when it comes to these types of intimate products, since many mainstream products include harmful ingredients.

Aloe Cadabra has developed an all-natural, certified organic product made from 95% organic aloe and enriched with Vitamin E. This first and only plant-based intimate moisturizer is pH balanced for a women’s body, anti-bacterial, anti-microbial and anti-fungal. Aloe Cadabra is fully absorbed into the skin as it is used, so there is no gooey, sticky mess, and it’s compatible with condoms.

Parents are wisely careful about what comes into contact with their baby’s body…doesn’t mom deserve the same caution?
