- Product Name: KY Yours+Mine Couples Lubricants
- Manufacturer: KY
- Pros: Cooling sensation for "Her"; warming sensation for "Him"; different sensation when they're combined; discreet packaging; innovative look
- Cons: Sensations depend on amount used and personal sensitivity; vials are identical and hard to identify in the dark; more expensive than other lubes; ingredients spell disaster for those sensitive to infections
- Bottom Line: Bottom Line -- By using both you are giving a lead-in to foreplay. But, you can do that with any lube, save $20, and not end up with the worst infection you've ever had!

KY Yours+Mine
KY came out with Yours+Mine Couples Lubricants as a way to help spice up sex. They’re marketing towards those who need a little more foreplay in their lives. The lubes arrive in a discreet little black box and are in a blue vial for him (Yours) and a purple vial for her (Mine). Now, depending on who bought the item, you have to be sure you read carefully because they’re not really interchangeable.
The Mine vial contains a cooling lubricant, but it doesn’t last incredibly long. Plus, if you’re not as sensitive as others down there you’ll end up using more of it just to get a bit of the tingle. The bottles are firm plastic which makes getting the lube out difficult. And, some of the ingredients in Mine are honey and sucralose!! Can you say “yeast infection”???? Eeww!!
The Yours vial contains a warming lubricant which also doesn’t last very long. Even KY acknowledges on their website that sensitivity and amount used vary and enjoyment is dependant on that. Also, it’s only compatible with latex condoms – so be sure you know what you’re using!
Now, supposedly when they get together you’re supposed to have this mind-blowing sensation that makes you want to cling from the ceiling in orgasmic ecstasy. Again, it depends on how much you use and how sensitive to the temperatures you are. I even tried mixing the two on my fingers and then applying it. I still didn’t get a big eye-opening tingle in my pussy.
So, I asked those who tried the Yours. My partner told me he kind of enjoyed it but that it had more to do with me taking more time to make sure every inch of his cock was lubed in order to ensure that I would get the full effect of the lubes combining. He said the warming sensation lasted only as long as I was stroking him. He said that once we combined the two he didn’t notice a difference in how warm his cock was or how cool my pussy was. So, it struck out on both sides.
A female friend of mine told me she accidentally got the bottles mixed up and put the Yours on herself. She was clinging to the ceiling – but it was in pain from the burning coming from her pussy! She tried washing it off and it took a while to quit. That’s one of the hazards of the design of the bottles. KY made the ink on the outside of the bottles glow-in-the-dark so that only the words “Yours” and “Mine” can be seen. That’s nice – but if you keep yours in a drawer like most of us do, when is it supposed to see light to charge-up the ink??? Since they’re exactly the same size, exactly the same shape, and can both fit in either side of the carrying connector they come in, how are you supposed to tell one from the other with your eyes closed??? And if you can’t tell the difference with your eyes shut, you sure has shit can’t tell the difference in the dark!
I read tons of reviews on the Internet before I bought some. At $20, I rationalized it at $10 for each of us to have something special. I can’t say all bad things about it, though. Yours+Mine does encourage some extra foreplay because you both have different lubes and it can make it more of a game to get slicked up. If you don’t usually have that much foreplay, here’s a way to insist on some since you each have a bottle to work with. I also fell for the ads on TV that showed couples who usually have crappy sex enjoying it more than ever before because of Yours+Mine.
All in all, it’s not completely terrible. You can walk in to any drug store and most Big Box Mart stores and find it instead of having to make a special trip to your local toy store. But, there are a lot of flaws with it and the packaging. And, you can spend WAY less than $20 on some quality lube and have much more fun. Many love it and wouldn’t use anything else. Me? I’d rather not run the risk of having yeast spores munching on honey and sugar in my pussy. I’ll pass on this one next time.
Interested in seeing this movie?
