YES OB — Organic Oil-Based Intimate Lubricant & Moisturiser

YES OB is not compatible with latex condoms. This is not specific to YES OB — all oil-based products, including natural oils like coconut oil, olive oil, and commercial oil-based lubricants, break down latex and can cause condoms to fail. If you rely on latex condoms for contraception or infection prevention, you should use YES WB (the water-based lubricant) instead.

YES OB can be used with polyurethane condoms and certain non-latex alternatives that are specifically rated as compatible with oil-based products. However, you should always check the condom manufacturer's instructions to confirm oil compatibility before use, as not all non-latex condoms are suitable.

For women who do not need to use condoms — for example, those in monogamous relationships using other forms of contraception — YES OB offers the advantage of longer-lasting lubrication that does not dry out or require frequent reapplication. The oil-based formulation also provides a deeply moisturising effect that many women with significant vaginal dryness find more comfortable than water-based alternatives.

If you are unsure which YES lubricant is right for your contraceptive situation, Blossom Pelvic Health can help you choose. The general rule is straightforward: if condoms are part of your routine, stick with YES WB. If condoms are not required, both YES WB and YES OB are effective choices — the decision comes down to your personal preference for feel, duration, and cleanup.

YES OB is made from a carefully selected blend of certified organic plant oils and butters, with no synthetic additives. The full ingredient list includes: theobroma cacao seed butter (organic cocoa butter), prunus amygdalus dulcis oil (sweet almond oil), helianthus annuus seed oil (organic sunflower seed oil), butyrospermum parkii butter (organic shea butter), tocopherol (vitamin E), and helianthus annuus seed oil (used as a carrier for the vitamin E).

Each ingredient has been chosen for both its lubricating properties and its skin-nourishing benefits. Organic cocoa butter and shea butter provide the rich, emollient base that gives YES OB its characteristic thickness at room temperature and smooth melt at body temperature. Sweet almond oil adds a silky glide and is known for its gentle, non-irritating properties. Sunflower seed oil is a light, easily absorbed oil that adds moisturising benefits without feeling heavy. Vitamin E is a natural antioxidant that helps protect and condition delicate intimate tissue.

Notably, YES OB does not contain parabens, petrochemicals, glycerin, propylene glycol, synthetic fragrances, or colours. The entire formulation is certified organic by the Soil Association, meaning every ingredient has been independently verified to meet strict organic standards from source to finished product.

The product is suitable for vegans (despite containing shea and cocoa butters, no animal-derived ingredients are used) and has not been tested on animals. For women with nut allergies, note that sweet almond oil is included — if you have a known tree nut allergy, consult your healthcare provider before use.
