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!

Naturally Lubricating The Lesbian Partners
June 30th, 2010Organic Personal Lubricant: The Aloe Cadabra® Story
June 9th, 2010Rinaldo 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.
Candy Diaries: Safe Organic Lubricant
June 7th, 2010
CandyDiaries.com loves this stuff for feeling good, smelling good, and being good for your body! You can even eat it, although they didn’t try that…
What I love about Aloe Cadabra Lubricant is that it’s organic, which means no harsh ingredients. Other lubs [sic] give you that uneasy feeling sometimes. I’ve tried one *I will call no names* but when I used it, it gave me that burning sensation and not in a good way. [It also gives] your sensitive skin the nourishment it needs to stay at its sexiest.
…
I definitely recommend this to all the lovers out there. If you wanna try something more natural for the body Aloe Cadabra is for you.
Sexual Trauma: Awakening the Body from Trauma
May 21st, 2010Carolyn Braddock, Dr. Aloe
Educator, Consultant, Author of Body Voices
Aloe Cadabra is “As Natural as Nature.” This product clearly fits with my work of over 40 years of specializing in trauma, and especially Sexual Trauma, which can clearly manifest in difficulties in relationships and sexual expression. (Sexual expression is one of my most favorite topics… besides golf.) I wanted to be able to help survivors to explore their sexuality, learn about sexual feelings, and FEEL them with the help of a product that is natural, and gentle, and free of harmful chemicals. There is an episode of a TV show, a young women describes an orgasm as “God waking up inside me.” To unwind sexual trauma is to celebrate the body, mind and spirit as a whole, what I call the many body voices of the body….hence my book called Body Voices.
When trauma is unwound, sexual expression may also be a celebration of a healthy, trusting, and loving relationship. The FIRST step in healing is AWARENESS, developing an awareness of what is being spoken and thought as well as awareness of body responses, sensations and feelings. The sexual journey is a rich one, demanding that we wholly explore, experience, and look at the old messages, patterns, and barriers to fullness. Many trauma survivors do not know their bodies – what their bodies look like, how they function, and where certain body parts are located. Then of course, there are the negative messages, shame and guilt.
I celebrate this natural product of 97% aloe… putting something so natural, clean, and that feels so good, silky, and smooth (not slimy) in such a sacred connection with the body, mind, and soul. The product is balanced and therefore helps to balance the user.
I know that my many years of experience (and silver hair) in the field of psychology, sexuality, and working with sexual trauma manifestations with clients and therapists nationally and internationally, would be valuable in helping to find a sexual lubricant product that looks good, feels good, and IS GOOD! Celebrate this product being available to help with the discovery of Self…the Self that is unwinding the trauma, to learn what feels good by experimenting with touching the body, and experiencing sensations….old feelings that may reoccur and remember the trauma, and new ones that empower. Experiment with a vibrator. Aloe Cadabra won’t harm sex toys. Go slowly…notice the feelings and where the body begins to awaken to sensations. Notice the thoughts. As a sensation begins to intensify, relax into it, and “ride the wave.” You are in charge of YOU now! This is YOUR body that belongs to YOU. Try out different scents: Natural Aloe, French Lavender, and Tahitian Vanilla.

Can I Use Backyard Aloe As a Personal Lubricant?
April 23rd, 2010Well, we believe the better question is how much fun would it be to have sex on your hammock in the backyard? Or on your swing set? Or under the stars with a warm blanket and some good wine? Those questions withstanding, many people have used raw aloe as a personal lubricant. In fact, that’s how we discovered the magic of aloe and experienced our first of many magic moments! We picked it right from our fields, filleted it and used it as not only a lubricant, but also a moisturizer. It worked unbelievably well. But, it was a bit runny, was difficult to work with and took away the spontaneity (who wants to fillet an aloe stalk when they’re ready for something more)? And, you of course need to be careful to make sure you get all the dirt off, don’t leave any of the prickly skin or have any bugs. As with anything you put on or in your body, you should make sure you aren’t allergic and if you feel any discomfort, immediately stop using it.
Raw aloe can be sensual, slippery fun and potentially healing (the healing properties of Aloe have been known for some time). But why go through the hassle of filleting the aloe, keeping it cool, delicately insuring it there’s no dirt or bugs in it, when you can get the same effect with out it, in a ready to use bottle that also includes incredible fragrances from organic essential oils? When trying to figure out which lubricant to choose, a lubricant with a lot of aloe is great for you, so more can be better! Be sure to read the label carefully; many tout having aloe vera or other great things like Vitamin E, but when you get down to it, there isn’t much of it in the bottle. So, read the label carefully and always look for a product like Aloe Cadabra, which has more than 95% organic aloe vera, along with some incredible other food grade ingredients that help provide thickness, lubricity, sensual aromas and other great qualities that make it fantastic for you and your partner or by yourself. So, use that aloe in your backyard. Better yet, use Aloe Cadabra while in your backyard…under the stars!
Vaginal Dryness: Mission Possible for Women!
April 13th, 2010
We need regular sexual activity to “keep the juices flowing.” Studies show that natural lubrication helps keep our organs in good working order.
But… what about our “emotional body?” We need that emotional connection, that exhilarating feeling of looking and really SEEING into our partner’s eyes, embracing the mind, body, spirit. We need to feel loved, wanted, and language that matches the loving heartfelt spirit. We need to have patience with allowing the natural lubrication to flow like a river of ecstasy. We need to create time, have space, and have an emotionally healthy connection….and then the magic happens. To have this connection means that we may also invite our natural juices to flow on their own. Often, we may add the gift of an all natural personal lubricant to join in this ecstatic journey. Aloe Cadabra with three scents of Natural Aloe, French Lavender, and Tahitian Vanilla, enhances the moment and deepens communication about what we like.
Stress in life…..do we need to name the main stressors we face daily? We suggest a few: financial strain, job stress, health concerns, relationship difficulties, and of course the kids. These stressors stop our bodies from feeling fluid (and fluidity in the mind, body, and spirit creates fluidity in natural lubrication of the physical and sexual body). We may not realize how much these stressors affect us until we try to do too much, and adding the pressure of sexual expression to the list of “I must and I should and I have to.” STOP, in the Name of Love,(as sung by the Supremes.) Our Super woman or Superman uniform becomes our life as we run to try to catch up (and we never do). Vaginal dryness is a HUGE factor in how we respond to stress. Choose to change this pattern NOW.

Intimate Lubricant with Organic Ingredients
April 7th, 2010Go Green Street’s “Green Tara” knows that her body is no place for antifreeze and other harsh chemicals!:
A part of the “green” movement is eliminating harmful chemicals from our life and working to get them removed from person care items. Propylparaben Propylene Glycol if often used as a chemical in many personal lubricants that is also used as an antifreeze. Sorry but, anything that is uses as an antifreeze, is not going to be used on me!
We all look for “green” products, and Aloe Cadabra is a product that can be used to “GREEN YOUR BEDROOM ROUTINE“. This silky lubricant is free from Glycerine, Parabens, Alcohol, Hormones and other harsh chemical substances. It truly is an eco-friendly “between the sheets” product!

Aloe Personal Lubricant: Highly Recommended
March 31st, 2010
Julie’s Journal was skeptical…now they’re just slippery!
Quite honestly, when I received the Aloe Cadabra samples I didn’t have much faith in them. They had the same nice scent, and the smooth feeling we were use to, but I just knew in the back of my mind, they would break down and become sticky. WOW! Were we ever proven wrong! Not only did it last, but it never, ever became sticky and gross. We’re sold!
…
We also like the fact that the ingredients in Aloe Cadabra are all natural. Have you read the ingredients labels of some personal lubricants on the market? Chlorhexidine? Methylparaben? I don’t know about you, but I’d rather not put that stuff on my body, thankyouverymuch. So make sure to try out the all natural Aloe Cadabra lubricant. I highly recommend it!

Fun, Safe Organic Lubricant Review
March 26th, 2010
Shannon at The Mommy Files has a Bachelor’s Degree in Marriage, Family, and Human Development, so she knows the importance of a good lube to the health of a body and a relationship!
In a marriage, intimacy is important…vital even to its survival and happiness. However, it’s hard to be intimate if you feel uncomfortable. Medicines (or birth controls) can cause dryness, which lessen the enjoyment for women in intimate situations. Many women (and men) try to relieve the dryness with over-the-counter products, but some result in uncomfortable reactions to the products. In steps Aloe Cadabra!
