Apricot oil vs. EPO
Ok I found my thread, the lube reviews were more intended toward pumping and jelq but I guess Men’s Sexual Health applies as well..
-I don’t know about ultrasound gel lol, and I thought I had strange ideas?! I wouldn’t doubt it is a type of vasaline/petroleum derivative, and likely an expensive version at that just like hospital aspirin, but I am not sure it’s make up..
Anyway, the past week I have been testing both the EPO oil and apricot kernel oil during pump sets (split sessions) on an almost daily basis. AM, I would use EPO for a few sets and PM sets, the apricot.. The EPO is more a pain to use because I’m using a dropper tube to transport from container, but it makes application more managable at the same time. The cap on the apricot is like a squirt type, have to aim into palm hand.
The EPO requires no real clean up on the skin, it soaks in when finished pretty well, but will leave the tube slick, which is fine. Both oils are easy to wash from tube. Apricot does not leave the skin as nice with no clean up, it will leave the area with an oily feel. Both seem to form a tube seal about equally, depending on what kind of “penis day” you’re having O.o
Other then the expense I have to say I do favor the EPO over the apricot oil but just slightly. They both worked out well and I’m sure I’ll be using them more often though I still prefer coconut overall. I’ll be getting a fancy new two stage tube for full package pumping in the mail soon, so there’s going to be a lot more lube slipping around ;)
