Naturally Lubricating The Lesbian Partners

June 30th, 2010

My partner and I are older, wiser, and have been together for over 30 years! We are IN LOVE! When we make love, we get help from our “friend,” Aloe Cadabra, and play with all the fun scents….Tahitian Vanilla, French Lavender, and Natural Aloe. As we get older, we experience more vaginal dryness, so of course we call upon our “friend.” Now, we always feel comfortable, like we are on a long lasting vacation. Thank you for this smooth, silky, friend who helps make our sexual experiences fun, healthy, and ecstatically beautiful!

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.

Increased Sex Drive and Multiple Orgasms

Sarah and Dave of California just shared this incredible story with us. Click through to read about more inspirational Magic Moments. Or, share your own and we’ll send you a coupon code for 20% off your next order. What could be better than sharing ways to enhance your lives, naturally?

After the birth of our second child, I was experiencing dryness and post partem depression. With the extra tasks from having a newborn, time was short, stress was high and the the thought of physical intimacy became less appealing, since it was uncomfortable. As we lost our physical connection, our relationship suffered on every level. We were confused, frustrated and didn’t know that dryness was normal or that there were simple and enjoyable solutions that were designed to work with and support my body’s natural processes. Aloe Cadabra has changed our lives. First it brought the comfort back to sex. As our comfort increased our natural drives for intimacy increased. As our desire for sex increased, our satisfaction with it increased (I was having multiple orgasms for the first time in my life!). As we rediscovered and reconnected with each other, our relationship came back to life and we began to learn and experience new things about each other and with each other. I couldn’t be more thankful for Aloe Cadabra. That it brought back the magic in our relationship, on every level, is amazing. That it’s good for me and I can feel good about using it is even better.

Silicone Personal Lubricants

May 19th, 2010

drop-on-leafAs a friend recently proclaimed after rubbing a premium silicone lubricant between her fingers, “wow, that’s as slippery as ice skating in roller skates.” So, what’s the deal with silicone lubricants? That’s a long topic, but here’s a couple of quick thoughts:

The upside, silicone lubricants are incredibly slick and can make for long lasting slipperiness and slickness. They’re typically unscented for those that are looking for something without scent. And, silicone is generally considered inert (ie. they aren’t bad for you per se). The downside? They may require clean-up afterward (you’ll be coated with it, which is what makes it so slippery and slick for such a long time). They can stain your sheets. Some people feel they’re so slick you’ll lose some of the sensation they’re looking for. And, they may not have ingredients that will nurture and enhance your well being like organic aloe vera or Vitamin E. Even if they do, check the label to find out just how much they have and just how natural the products are.

If you’re looking for slick and slippery, they’re great. If you’re looking for as natural as nature, you may want to look for something like Aloe Cadabra, which will enhance and nurture your body while providing a sensual feeling just like you’re used to.

The Quickie: Lube

May 7th, 2010

Do you remember when lubricants were taboo to talk about? When you had to ask for lubricants from the pharmacist at your drug store? When there weren’t many options? When other intimate and feminine hygiene products weren’t talked about? Boy have things changed. I was recently out to lunch with a close friend, in her 30’s, who owns her own business and is highly successful. She asked what I was up to and I mentioned Aloe Cadabra.

Without blinking an eye she said, “do you know what a big deal that is? Sometimes, my husband and I (also a business owner) don’t have time for all the warm ups. This stuff would be awesome. We can get right down to things with a “quickie lube,” enjoy a great experience with each other and then move on to our hectic schedules, physically, mentally and emotionally fulfilled. We wouldn’t want to do that every time, but boy would it be great for those high stress times.”

We say bravo! Enjoy a quickie lube with yourself or someone you care about. Enhance it with a great all natural lube you can feel good about, like Aloe Cadabra. And enjoy all life has to offer. Even when there isn’t a lot of time to enjoy it!

Personal Lubricant Ingredients – Part 2

May 3rd, 2010

Did you know that many lubricants contain chemicals that can make those with allergies or chemical sensitivities experience burning or irritation when they use them? Did you know that menopause increases the percentage of people with adult onset allergies, which can increase chemical sensitivities? If you’re experiencing any of those things or better yet, just because you care about you, look for lubricants without potentially harmful chemicals like Glycerine and Parabens (they can make sensitivities even more acute). Find a lubricant without them, like Aloe Cadabra, and enjoy knowing you’re using a product that’s As Natural As Nature. Not only will it help lubricate, but it will also help moisturize, and enhance your pleasure!

Can I Make My Own Lubricant At Home?

April 26th, 2010

jarWe recently were asked if you can make your own lubricants at home. The answer is a resounding YES! And, we’d start with some of the ideas we’ve written about before that help reactivate your own natural juices. If you’re looking for a little extra juice, you definitely can make your own lubricants at home. But be careful and put safety first. If you’re using oils, they can cause condom damage. Be even more careful about allergies (just imagine the reaction when things you’re allergic to go into or on sensitive areas). Watch out for nasty bacteria that can get on and into your ingredients while you make it or bottle it, they can cause some serious unintended consequences. And, be sure you store your lubricant properly; depending upon what you use, your lubricant may have a short shelf life.

There are several things which are great lubricants that don’t require any “home brewing,” at all, like raw aloe (see our previous post on backyard aloe as a personal lubricant). Other popular ingredients for a “home brew” include coconut oil and flaxseed oil (these are both oils, so aren’t compatible with condoms). As with anything you are going to put on or in your body, no matter what you try, make sure it’s compatible with your body and you aren’t allergic. And, for those of you looking to ensure safety, keep the spontaneity (who wants to brew on demand during that magic moment) and avoid frigid moments (imagine a lube you’ve had refrigerated, yikes!), remember that are great alternatives that are already “As Natural As Nature”, such as Aloe Cadabra!

Personal Lubricant with NO Petroleum

April 21st, 2010

oil-droplets EnvironmentalBooty.com treasures “self, people, and planet”, and Aloe Cadabra is definitely a product that does all three! Shop owner Shane Shirley Smith writes:

Ladies we know that sometimes a personal lubricant is a must and why use petroleum or synthetic based products which contain parabens, alcohol and even Polyquaternium 15? Greening your sex life and personal needs, as giggly as it makes us, is just one more way to protect ourselves and our environment.
