Is this lubricant safe to use with condoms?

Silicone-based lubricants are generally not recommended for use with latex condoms as they can degrade the latex material, potentially reducing contraceptive effectiveness. If you are using latex condoms, consider a water-based lubricant instead. Always check condom packaging for compatibility guidance.

What are the possible side effects of using this lubricant?

Most people tolerate silicone lubricants well. Possible side effects include localised skin irritation, redness, or itching, particularly in those with sensitive skin or botanical allergies. Discontinue use and consult a pharmacist if irritation persists.

Is Intimate Earth MOJO suitable for people with sensitive skin?

The formula is designed to be gentle, but individuals with known sensitivities to botanical extracts or silicone should patch-test on a small area of skin first. If you experience any reaction, stop use immediately and seek pharmacist advice.

How do I use Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide correctly?

Apply a small amount of the lubricant to the desired area before or during intimacy. Reapply as needed. A little goes a long way with silicone-based formulas, so start with a small amount and increase if required.

What Is a Silicone Lubricant for Sex and How Does MOJO Work?

Finding the right personal lubricant can make a real difference to intimate comfort and confidence. The silicone lubricant for sex from Intimate Earth — the MOJO Peruvian Ginseng Silicone Performance Glide — combines a smooth, long-lasting silicone base with a botanical extract of Peruvian Ginseng (Lepidium meyenii), a plant traditionally used in South American herbal practice and increasingly studied for its potential role in supporting libido and energy. At just £2.99 for a 3ml trial size, it's an accessible way to explore whether a silicone-based formula suits you. You can browse the full range of options in our personal lubricants collection at Cured Pharmacy.

Silicone-based lubricants differ from water-based alternatives in one key way: they don't evaporate or absorb into the skin quickly. That means longer-lasting glide with less need to reapply. For people who find standard lubricants dry out too fast, this can be a genuine game-changer.

How Does the MOJO Silicone Glide Work During Intimacy?

The mechanism here is straightforward but effective. Silicone molecules form a smooth, slippery layer over skin surfaces that persists through friction and moisture. Unlike water-based gels, silicone doesn't break down in water, which also makes this product suitable for use in the bath or shower.

Silicone base creates a durable, low-friction layer on skin
Peruvian Ginseng (maca root) extract is included as a botanical ingredient traditionally associated with vitality and libido support
The formula does not contain water, so it resists evaporation during use
A small amount provides significant coverage, making the 3ml size practical for single or occasional use

It's worth noting that the inclusion of Peruvian Ginseng is based on traditional use and emerging research rather than established clinical evidence at the level of licensed medicines. This product is a cosmetic intimate lubricant, not a medicinal treatment.

Who Should Consider Using MOJO Peruvian Ginseng Silicone Glide?

This product is designed for adults seeking a long-lasting, botanically enhanced intimate lubricant. It may be particularly useful for people who:

Find water-based lubricants dry out too quickly during intimacy
Are interested in botanical or natural-inspired intimate care products
Want a lubricant suitable for use in water (bath, shower)
Are looking for a trial or travel-sized option before committing to a larger product

It is not suitable for use with silicone sex toys, as silicone lubricants can degrade silicone toy surfaces. It is also important to check compatibility with condoms — see the comparison table below for more detail.

How Does MOJO Silicone Glide Compare to a Water-Based Lubricant?

Feature	MOJO Silicone Glide	Typical Water-Based Lubricant
Longevity	Long-lasting; does not evaporate	May dry out; requires reapplication
Latex condom compatibility	Not recommended with latex condoms	Compatible with latex condoms
Silicone toy compatibility	Not compatible — may damage toys	Compatible with silicone toys
Water resistance	Water-resistant; suitable for use in water	Washes away easily in water

Is MOJO Silicone Glide Suitable for Sensitive Skin and How Should It Be Stored?

The MOJO formula is designed to be gentle on skin, but if you have known sensitivities to botanical extracts or silicone-based products, it's sensible to patch-test a small amount on your inner wrist before use. People with a history of contact dermatitis or vulval skin conditions should speak to their GP or pharmacist first. If you're managing any ongoing intimate health concerns, our women's health section may also be helpful.

Store this product below 25°C, away from direct sunlight, and keep it out of reach of children. The 3ml size is ideal for travel or trying the product for the first time. As a silicone lubricant for sex, it should be kept in its original packaging until use and discarded if the seal is broken or the product appears discoloured.

This product is a cosmetic intimate lubricant. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

How does the Peruvian Ginseng in this lubricant work?

Peruvian Ginseng — also known as maca root (Lepidium meyenii) — is a plant native to the Andes traditionally used to support energy and libido. In this product it is included as a botanical extract alongside the silicone base. It is not a clinically licensed active ingredient, but it is a well-recognised botanical in intimate wellness products.

Is MOJO Silicone Glide safe to use with condoms?

Silicone-based lubricants are not recommended for use with latex condoms, as they can degrade the latex and reduce contraceptive effectiveness. If you need to use a condom alongside a lubricant, choose a water-based formula instead. Polyurethane or polyisoprene condoms are generally considered compatible with silicone lubricants, but always check the condom manufacturer's guidance.

Can I use this lubricant with silicone sex toys?

No — silicone lubricants can break down the surface of silicone sex toys over time, causing them to become sticky, porous, or damaged. Always use a water-based lubricant with silicone toys. If you are unsure about your toy's material, check the manufacturer's instructions before applying any lubricant.

What are the possible side effects of using MOJO Silicone Glide?

Most people tolerate this product well. Possible side effects include mild skin irritation, redness, or itching at the site of application, particularly in those with sensitive skin or a known sensitivity to botanical extracts. If you develop a rash, swelling, or persistent discomfort, stop use immediately and consult a pharmacist or GP.

How long does silicone lubricant last compared to water-based lubricant?

Silicone lubricants last considerably longer than water-based alternatives because they do not evaporate or absorb into the skin at the same rate. This makes them particularly useful for longer intimate sessions or use in water, such as in the bath or shower. You will typically need to apply less product overall compared to a water-based gel.

Is MOJO Silicone Glide suitable for people with sensitive skin?

The formula is designed to be gentle, but if you have a history of contact dermatitis, vulval skin conditions, or known botanical allergies, it is advisable to patch-test a small amount on your inner wrist before intimate use. If any reaction occurs, discontinue use. Speak to your pharmacist if you are unsure whether this product is right for your skin type.

How do I use MOJO Peruvian Ginseng Silicone Glide step by step?

Apply a small, pea-sized amount to the desired area before or during intimacy. Silicone lubricants are concentrated, so a little goes a long way — start with a small amount and add more if needed. After use, wash the area gently with mild soap and warm water.

What is the best time to use MOJO Silicone Glide?

This product can be applied immediately before or during intimate activity — there is no need to apply it in advance. Because silicone lubricants are long-lasting, you are unlikely to need frequent reapplication during a single session. Use it whenever comfort or reduced friction is needed.

Who is eligible to use MOJO Peruvian Ginseng Silicone Glide?

This product is intended for adults aged 18 and over. It is suitable for people of all genders seeking a long-lasting intimate lubricant. It is not suitable for those with silicone allergies, known sensitivities to maca root, or those using silicone sex toys or latex condoms. If you have an underlying intimate health condition, speak to your GP before use.

What happens if I use too much of this lubricant?

Using too much silicone lubricant is unlikely to cause harm, but it may feel uncomfortably slippery or leave residue on skin and surfaces. If excess product is applied, simply wipe away the surplus with a clean cloth and wash the area with mild soap and water. Start with a small amount and increase gradually as needed.

What are the alternatives to MOJO Silicone Glide?

Alternatives include water-based personal lubricants, which are compatible with latex condoms and silicone toys, and hybrid lubricants that combine water and silicone bases. The right choice depends on your specific needs, including condom use, toy compatibility, and skin sensitivity. You can explore options in our condoms and sexual health collection.

How long can I use MOJO Silicone Glide for?

There is no set limit on how long you can use this product, provided you do not experience any adverse reactions. It is a cosmetic intimate lubricant rather than a medicinal treatment, so ongoing use is a personal choice. If you notice any persistent irritation or discomfort with regular use, stop and consult a pharmacist.

Is MOJO Silicone Glide vegan-friendly?

Intimate Earth as a brand is known for producing vegan and cruelty-free intimate products, and the MOJO range is formulated without animal-derived ingredients. However, always check the current product packaging for the most up-to-date ingredient and certification information, as formulations can change.

What does the latest research say about Peruvian Ginseng and sexual health?

Some published studies have explored Lepidium meyenii (maca root) in relation to libido and sexual function, with a small number of trials suggesting a possible benefit in adults experiencing low sexual desire. However, the evidence base remains limited and the ingredient in this product is present as a botanical extract in a cosmetic lubricant, not as a clinically dosed medicinal treatment. Speak to your GP if you have concerns about sexual function or libido.

How Should You Use Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide?

Using this product correctly is straightforward, but a few simple steps will help you get the most from it while keeping things safe and comfortable. Silicone lubricants are more concentrated than water-based alternatives, so you genuinely need less than you might expect.

Avoid contact with eyes. Do not apply to broken, inflamed, or infected skin. If the product contacts the eyes, rinse immediately with clean water.

What Is the Correct Dose of Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide?

There is no fixed medicinal dose for this product, as it is a cosmetic intimate lubricant rather than a licensed medicine. The amount used should be guided by personal comfort and need. As a general rule, start small — you can always add more.

The 3ml size is designed for single or short-term use. Do not exceed the recommended amount for comfort.

When Is the Best Time to Use Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide?

This product can be applied immediately before or during intimate activity — no advance preparation is needed. Because silicone lubricants are long-lasting and do not evaporate quickly, you are unlikely to need to reapply frequently during a single session. It is also suitable for use in water, such as in the bath or shower, making it flexible for different situations.

There is no specific time of day that is better than another. Simply use it when comfort or reduced friction is needed.

How Long Can You Use Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide For?

There is no set duration limit for using this product, provided you do not experience any adverse skin reactions. It is a cosmetic intimate lubricant, not a medicinal treatment, so ongoing use is a matter of personal preference and comfort. If you notice persistent irritation, redness, or discomfort with regular use, stop using the product and consult your pharmacist.

The 3ml pack is intended for short-term or single-use. Once opened, use promptly and do not store for extended periods. Check the expiry date on the packaging before each use.

Do not exceed the recommended dose. If in doubt, speak to your pharmacist.

What Are the Most Common Side Effects of Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide?

Most adults use silicone-based intimate lubricants without experiencing any side effects. However, as with any topically applied product, some people — particularly those with sensitive skin — may notice mild reactions at the site of application.

Mild redness or skin irritation at the application site
Temporary itching or tingling, especially in those with sensitive intimate skin
A feeling of warmth or mild discomfort if applied to very sensitive areas

These reactions are usually short-lived. If they persist beyond a few minutes or worsen, stop using the product and wash the area with mild soap and water.

What Are the Less Common Side Effects of Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide?

Less commonly, some individuals may experience a more pronounced skin reaction, particularly if they have a known sensitivity to botanical extracts such as Lepidium meyenii (maca root) or to silicone-based formulations.

Allergic contact dermatitis — presenting as a rash, hives, or localised swelling
Prolonged irritation or burning sensation that does not resolve after washing
Discomfort if the product inadvertently contacts mucous membranes internally

If you experience any of these reactions, discontinue use immediately and seek advice from a pharmacist or GP.

What Are the Serious Side Effects of Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide?

Serious adverse reactions to topical intimate lubricants are rare. However, a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) is theoretically possible in individuals with extreme sensitivities, though this is exceptionally uncommon with cosmetic intimate products. Signs of a serious allergic reaction include difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or a widespread rash. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek emergency medical attention immediately by calling 999.

What Should You Do If You Experience Side Effects of MOJO Silicone Glide?

If you notice any skin irritation, redness, or discomfort after using this product, stop use straight away and wash the affected area gently with mild soap and warm water. For mild reactions, this is usually sufficient. If symptoms persist, worsen, or you develop signs of an allergic reaction, contact your pharmacist or GP for further guidance. Do not continue using the product if you have experienced a reaction.

Can Intimate Earth MOJO Silicone Glide Interact With Other Products?

This product does not interact with oral medicines. However, it is important to be aware of the following product-level interactions:

Latex condoms — silicone lubricants can degrade latex, reducing contraceptive effectiveness; use polyurethane or polyisoprene condoms instead
Silicone sex toys — silicone lubricants can damage silicone toy surfaces; use a water-based lubricant with silicone toys
Other topical intimate products — avoid combining with other lubricants or intimate creams unless advised by a healthcare professional

If you are concerned about any side effects, contact your pharmacist or GP immediately.
