What's the difference between AH! YES WB and AH! YES OB lubricants?
AH! YES WB water-based and AH! YES OB plant-oil based personal lubricants are sister products, and can be used alone or together depending on your body’s needs. They are different and complementary in their actions:
AH! YES WB water-based personal lubricant

- Gynecologist recommended – https://www.ahyes.org/why-ahyes/professional-recommendations/
- Hypoallergenic: formulated to minimize the risk of allergies
For best protection against discomfort when making love we suggest you use both products together, (AH! YES OB applied first, followed by AH! YES WB). This gives robust lubrication from AH! YES OB and the extra slip from AH! YES WB on top ensures long-lasting lovemaking with the maximum lubrication. When used on top of AH! YES OB, AH! YES WB is not quickly absorbed so both partners get the benefit of natural feeling lubrication without the need to reapply regularly.
The tubes of our personal lubricants do not come with a reusable applicator as they are for health & wellbeing as well as pleasure and are applied with your fingers. We do sell the AH! YES WB water-based personal lubricant in pre-filled, single-use applicators so that you can apply the product further up into the vagina. Please refer to the products page on our website for more information.
What's the difference between AH! YES VM and AH! YES WB?
Both AH! YES VM vaginal moisturizer and AH! YES WB water-based personal lubricant are pH matched to typical vaginal pH, which means both are ideal for vaginal use.
AH! YES VM Vaginal Moisturizer is designed to release water to rehydrate dry vaginal tissues as and when it is needed, over extended periods, such as 1-3 days. AH! YES VM will instantly sooth and calm irritation, itching and burning as does AH! YES WB. AH! YES VM is more of a slow-release moisturizer; the rate of moisturizing is determined by the degree of vaginal tissue dryness. The drier they are the more water will be released. YES VM puts your body in control of rehydrating itself.
AH! YES WB Personal Lubricant is designed to release water more rapidly than AH! YES VM, to instantly rehydrate and lubricate dry tissues to enable intercourse.
