Have any of you used the “experience enhancing” gels that are now being advertised? I know that KY is selling a combo pack for him and her. None of my girlfriends have so I’m throwing the question out to all of you.

The point to those gels is to simply increase blood flow to the area. The more blood the more sensitive the area is to touch-this does not mean sexually arousing touch it simply means the area is more sensitive than before. It does not create desire or sexual craziness like some advertisements may say lol. But I have tried the ones that claim to have the "hot feeling" or "cool"...again just changes the blood flow and ads menthol to it for a cool tingle and I can say from experience it hurt more than anything. Those 'tingles' were too much for me and I did not like it. Some people love them and some people hate them, all you can do is try them out. It does not cost much so it is worth a try.

ItsASecret is right about the increasing of the blood flow. However, different arousal gels do it in different ways. Some do it with an ingredient that is a little irritating like menthol or niacin, and some people like the "tingle" that these things give you. I am with ItsASecret, I hate it; all it does is burn! I found, however, an arousal gel that makes things feel like a great arousal: more sensitvity, more vaginal lubrication, and it doesn't make it feel different from a natural arousal. I love it!!! That stuff is called Galaxis gel, and I found it on Amazon.

I cannot say I have experience with these gels, as they do not appeal to me.
I would recommend going to an 'adult novelty shop' or finding a rep who does home parties for sex related items. I will never use KY again after finding the better quality ones suggested by someone who was specialized in knowing about what is available lubricant wise.

I've used them and I hate them... I don't like the "warming" sensation down there, well, the artificial warming sensation anyways.

I do totally agree with Aeryn though, go to an adult toy store, they have every lube known to man and then some.

I totally agree with LanaBear about the artificial warming sensation. I hate that too. That's exactly the reason why I love Galaxis. It makes the arousal stronger (including wetter), but it doesn't feel artificial at all, it feels like the REAL thing. I absolutely love it!

I've tried the "intense" and "his & hers"... my man says it makes a difference for him, but I can't really tell much of a difference. I can tell their is a warming sensation, but that doesn't mean its good. It's just warm... i think it's a waste of money, and you're better of just using really good plain lube, lol. Just my opinion.

Those gels are a hoax and a waste of money.
