YES® OB and YES® COCO

YES® OB Applicators have always contained coconut oil whereas OB tubes have always contained shea butter. For years, we’ve been using different oil blends for YES® OB in applicators and tubes, optimised to ensure they can be applied easily and comfortably.

Now is the time to celebrate the differences in these formulations for the unique benefits each formulation brings and the different ways they can be applied.

What is the difference between YES OB and YES WB

YES® WB water based and YES® OB plant-oil based are sister products, they can be used alone or together depending on what your body needs. They are different and complementary in their actions:

YES®  WB water based personal lubricant

  • A unique intimate lubricant with excellent moisturising properties
  • Enhances sexual pleasure and sensitivity
  • Provides reassuringly realistic lubrication
  • No smell, no taste, no stickiness
  • Compatible with natural rubber, latex and polyisoprene condoms and toys
  • pH balanced to maintain the typical vaginal environment and combat thrush & irritation
  • Formulated from water-retaining plant polymers to rehydrate delicate tissues
  • Rapidly relieves discomfort and dryness
  • Gynaecologist recommended https://www.yesyesyes.org/why-yes/professional-recommendations/
  • Hypoallergenic: formulated to minimise the risk of allergies
  • Indistinguishable from your own moisture


YES® OB plant-oil based lubricant

  • Luxurious, long-lasting lubricants, giving additional protection for dry and sensitive tissues.
  • Perfect for prolonged love-making
  • Natural plant-oil alternatives to synthetic chemical lubricants such as silicone or petroleum-based products like Vaseline.
  • Also suitable for intimate or whole body massage
  • Safe for use with silicone toys
  • For exceptional skin conditioning YES®OB contains:
    • In tubes: Sweet Almond oil, Shea butter, Cocoa butter and vitamin E
    • In 5ml applicators: Coconut oil, Jojoba oil, Grapeseed oil and vitamin E
  • Richly nourishing, providing soothing relief
  • Can protect and feed dry intimate tissues. Will not, however, rehydrate tissues as do not contain water.
  • Gynaecologist recommended https://www.yesyesyes.org/why-yes/professional-recommendations/
  • Hypoallergenic: formulated to minimise the risk of allergies

For best protection against discomfort when making love we suggest you use both products together, (YES® OB applied first followed by YES® WB).  This gives robust lubrication from YES® OB and the extra slip from YES® WB on top ensures long-lasting lovemaking with the maximum lubrication.  When used on top of YES® OB, YES® WB is not quickly absorbed so both partners get the benefit of natural feeling lubrication without the need to reapply regularly.

The tubes of our personal lubricant do not come with a reusable applicator as they are for both health & wellbeing and pleasure and are applied with your fingers. We do sell both the water and oil based personal lubricants in a prefilled, single use applicator so that you can apply the product further up into the vagina. Please refer to our products page on our website for more information.

 
 

What is the difference between YES® VM and YES® WB?

Both YES® VM and YES® WB are pH matched to typical vaginal pH which means both are ideal for vaginal use.

YES® WB Personal Lubricant is designed to release water more rapidly than YES® VM, to instantly rehydrate and lubricate dry tissues to enable intercourse.

YES® VM Vaginal Moisturiser is designed to release water to rehydrate dry vaginal tissues as and when it is needed, over extended periods, such as 1-3 days. YES® VM will instantly sooth and calm irritation, itching and burning as does YES® WB. YES VM is more of a slow release moisturiser, the rate of moisturising is determined by the degree of vaginal tissue dryness. The drier they are the more water will be released. YES® VM puts your body in control of rehydrating herself.
