Recipes & Formulations

Reverse-engineered products and DIY formulations. These are experiments in understanding how commercial products work and recreating them.

Bad Dragon cum lube

Difficulty: Medium | Cost vs Commercial:~$40 startup cost ($20 J-lube, $20 for others) makes about 9-10L vs $7 for one bottle (250ml) or $49 for 9 bottles (2.25L), not including shipping.

Ingredients

Instructions (for small 4-8oz batches)

  1. Put J Lube and water into a protein mix shaker bottle. Close the bottle and shake well for a minute. Open and break clumps. Repeat shake and break clumps until all clumps are truly gone.
  2. Microwave on 50% heat until reaches a boil then immediately stop (just like making gravy from a powder mix).
  3. Let the mixture cool to room temperature. Lube is ready now.
  4. Add potassium sorbate and citric acid for stability. If you don't intend to use the lube for vaginal play and plan to go through it within a few months, this step is unnecessary.
  5. If using titanium dioxide for color realism, I recommend playing around with water and starting with 0.1%. Then go up or down in factors of 2 and binary searching until it seems right. Then experimenting with small batches of your lube.
