ASTROLUBE® is a special type of cellulose carbohydrate with a very large molecular size.
It's made from plants, but unlike simple sugars, ASTROLUBE® isn't sticky. ASTROLUBE® is EXTREMELY SLIPPERY when dissolved in water, and a lot of fun since its possible to make gallons and gallons of lube with very small amounts of powdered ASTROLUBE®.
ASTROLUBE® leaves very little residue after evaporating because it's 99.3% water! This makes it that much more user friendly and enjoyable.
It's also an ingredient you probably already know - it's the stuff that makes expensive personal lubricants slippery, which normally has lots of other not-so-nice ingredients such as paraben preservatives and solvents like propylene glycol - an alcohol that can be irritating.
There are no preservatives in ASTROLUBE®, so be sure to use what you mix!
