Whet Lubricants FAQ

What is Whet Lubricant made from?
Whet is made from safe, non-toxic ingredients that have been used in international manufactured and medical lubricants for many years. There are not that many ingredients in Whet, this is because we have deliberately kept the formulation as simple as possible in the firm belief that “less is often more”.

We use pharmaceutical or high- grade products some of which we import specifically for this purpose and the product is manufactured in an accredited and safe facility. Like most lubricants Whet contains a preservative. We have used the smallest amount possible to ensure a realistic “life-span” for our product and protect it from mould and degeneration.

Is Whet Lube safe?
Yes, Whet is safe but like with most things in life we need to take personal responsibility for checking. The list of ingredients is on the label so please read it and check that you are not allergic to any of the ingredients. (It’s unlikely but worth checking). If you do experience irritation when using Whet or any other lubricant, stop using it immediately.

Does Whet contain any spermicide?
No it does not. Whet Lubricant is not a contraceptive and does not protect against pregnancy. It does not contain Nonoxynol-9.

What research has been done on Whet?
Whet Lubricant has been tested by Swift micro laboratories. It has also been field tested by hundreds of users over the past 4 years. We are currently in the process of acquiring international accreditation. While we know Whet Lubricant is great we are always looking at ways to make it even better.

Can it be used with condoms and silicone products?
Yes, Whet is perfectly safe to use with condoms and we encourage you to do so. Whet can improve sensation when using condoms and helps to prevent condoms from breaking. As such water based lubricants are helpful in encouraging safer sexual practises.

What makes Whet different to other products?
Whet a seductively South African product, which means that it is made locally, (you save on carbon miles) and promote our economy. Whet offers you a high quality lubricant at an affordable price and a range of variants that cater for those who prefer “plain” lubes to those who prefer a fruity or vanilla variant. The packaging is discreet and designed to appeal to both men and women.

Is Whet edible?

Can Whet only be used a vaginal lubricant for penetration?
No not at all. It is perfect for vaginal and anal use and for creating a slippery, non-abrasive sensation wherever you choose to use it. It is an ideal product to enhance masturbation and for stimulating the external sexual organs including during foreplay.

Does Whet de-sensitive your penis or vagina?
No, Whet is a personal lubricant it is not a desensitising agent. These are other products, the pros and cons of which would have to be addressed separately.

Is Whet only for men or women?
Whet is ideal for men and women regardless sexual orientation.

Will my partner be offended if I suggest using a lubricant? Does it mean I am not turned on?
You can reassure your partner that using a lubricant is absolutely no reflection on how turned on you are.

My partner has plenty of her own natural lubrication, why would we want to use a lubricant?
Using lubricant is fun and has “come out of the closet” in terms of no longer being viewed as a product designed to address a problem, or for medical use. The same way that you add spice to a recipe or use a lubricant for your car, Whet Lubricant simply enhances your love-making.
