More Than Lube: Skincare, Sunburn and 17 Other Bonus Uses For Our Serum
We all know lube is for sex, right? Yes! And it can be used for so much more depending on the formula. That’s the key—you need to know exactly what’s in your lube before you use it for anything else.
Because our Luxurious Intimacy Serum & Personal Moisturizer is made mostly with organic aloe plus other good-for-you ingredients and it has a unique silky texture, it has many other safe and effective uses.
A lot of these bonus use ideas have come directly from you, our gorgeous customers. If you have anything other creative ways you love to use Beloved, reach out to us...and we'll add it to this list.
1. Sex+++
Yes, yes our Serum is fantastic for sex...sex being a varied and widely defined word though. Using the serum for intercourse is a given. But it also works great with sex toys and is safe to use with all of them (many other lubes are not…eek…they will damage and ruin your silicone sex toys specifically).
Our formula is flavorless, so you can use it for oral sex. And it’s perfectly slick so it helps with finger stimulation, too.
2. Intimate Skincare & Moisturizer
When testing the formula, we had a wonderful and surprising discovery: it’s actually nourishing and moisturizing to vaginal skin. It doesn't just sit on top of the skin and act slippery during sex. It moisturizes the skin.
The vaginal skin is lined with a mucous membrane which makes it very different than the skin on your face or hands. Vaginal skin needs to be moist; that is its most natural and healthy state. Our Serum actually moisturizes the skin.
Use it daily at a regular time, just like you do face skincare
And/or when feeling dry or uncomfortable for whatever reason (different points in your cycle, perimenopause, menopause, after you’ve taken an antihistamine—which drys up everything), put a dollop on your lady parts
3. Treat Sunburn or Other Burns
Because one of the primary ingredients in our Serum is aloe, it has exactly the nutrients your skin needs to make your sunburn, or any other burn, feel better. Along with aloe, hemp seed oil brings moisture back into your skin and reduces the appearance of redness while linseed extract, hydrates and soothes skin with its high levels of omega-3 fatty acids.
4. Facial Serum & Moisturizer
One of the main ingredients in Beloved is Tremella Fuciformis extract AKA the “beauty mushroom”. This magical ingredient has high levels of vitamin D, hydrates skin, and reduces inflammation. So go ahead and put a pump or two on your face.
5. Hand Moisturizer
Yep, if it’s good enough for your face and intimate parts, it’ll do wonders for keeping your hands soft and supple.
6. Cuticle Cream
Cracking cuticles means that dirt, germs, and bacteria can get in. Plus dry cuticles are just not at all cute. Using our Serum around the base of your nail bed can help keep them happy and pretty.
7. Inner Thigh Chafing
Chafing during exercise or while wearing shorts or a dress is a nightmare! Add in some sweat and it’s a recipe for a wicked painful rash. A touch of Serum will hydrate and allow your skin to glide without friction and irritation.
8. Tame Flyaway & Frizzy Hair
A single pump of our Serum can tame wild frizzled hair into silky locks. The ingredients are very effective at smoothing and conditioning hair. Also, especially in the summer months, curly-haired ladies should opt for glycerin-free products (like our Serum) because in hot, humid climates glycerin can actually cause your hair to draw in more moisture, resulting in crazy frizz.
9. Brow Gel
Apply a small amount of product and set it by brushing everything into place. Again, it will smooth and condition the hair.
10. Shave Gel
Use our Serum as shave gel to get the closest, smoothest shave of your life. Bonus: it will hydrate your skin while you shave, so no need for an additional moisturizer.
11. Makeup Remover
Put a few drops on a cloth or directly on your skin to remove makeup. It’s gentle on skin but strong enough to remove those stubborn bits of heavy-duty mascara still on your lashes from date night.
12. Massage Oil
A few pumps of our Serum is a great substitute for massage oil. Massage is great foreplay, y’know! Even better than massage oil, our Serum won’t stain your fancy sheets and dries without any sticky residue.
13. Prevent Blisters
You know those adorable shoes you love, but they give you ouchie blisters? Pull ‘em out again because you can protect your feet from blisters and get rid of unnecessary friction. Put a drop or two of our Serum where you typically get blisters or where your shoe is rubbing.
14. Remove a Stuck Ring
Ring too tight after a night of chips, queso and margaritas? Don’t panic, a few drops will loosen it up with ease.
15. Unknot Jewelry
Your great-grandmother’s necklace is gorgeous, but you can’t wear it when it’s tangled in a knot. Speed up the process by laying the chain on a flat surface and adding a drop of our Serum to help release things.
16. DIY Creme Blush or Highlighter
Mix a little bit of eyeshadow with our Serum and voila! You’ve made your own custom creme blush or highlighter.
17. Fix a Creaky Door or Drawer
If you’re really in a pinch and can’t find the WD-40, our Serum will do the trick.
18. Open or Close a Stuck Zipper
Finicky zippers are a nightmare. Save your jeans, jacket, and other accessories with a drop of lube to help the zipper glide along.
19. Soothe Your Dog’s Sensitive Paws
Does your pup get dry, cracked paw pads from walking in the snow, salt, ice or on hot pavement? A dab of on their feet should soothe the sting.
Ingredients matter. That’s kind of our “thing” at Beloved. Prioritizing the best, cleanest ingredients means a product can be used during intimate moments and also outside the bedroom. Beloved is safe and versatile enough to incorporate into your daily life in so many ways. We love a multi-use product!
