More About HydroSlix™ Liner
What is the HydroSlix™ Liner, and how does it work?
HydroSlix™ Vaginal Liner is a single-use water-based liner intended for insertion into the vagina before penetration. It provides a soft, slick texture (especially when paired with lube) during intimate sexual activity.
Who should not use the HydroSlix™ Vaginal Liner?
This product may not be suitable for everyone. If you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, have a medical condition, or experience pain or irritation, please avoid use or consult a healthcare professional. Do not use on broken, irritated, or bleeding tissue. Do not use if you are sensitive or allergic to any of the ingredients. Not intended for use by individuals under 18.
Additionally, the HydroSlix™ Vaginal Liner is designed to be inserted into the vaginal canal. Not intended for use by individuals who are unable to safely insert vaginal products.

Are HydroSlix™ Liners large enough for my partner?
HydroSlix™ Liners are designed to stretch and accommodate most penile sizes. The inner diameter stretches up to 3 inches, and the length extends up to 6 inches to align with the maximum vaginal canal depth.
We prioritize vaginal canal capacity over penile length, as penetration depth is determined by how much the vaginal canal can expand, not the length of the penis.
Does Slix contain hormones, spermicides, or glycerin?
Our HydroSlix™ material is made without hormones, spermicides, and glycerin.
What is the pH and osmolality of the HydroSlix™ material?
We are so glad you asked!
Our pH is ~4.2. Natural variability within 3.5–5.5 may occur (typical vaginal pH range).
Our osmolality is ~270 mOsm/kg. Natural variability typically below 400 mOsm/kg may occur.
Is HydroSlix™ reusable or single-use?
HydroSlix™ is single-use only. Each HydroSlix™ Liner should be disposed of after use.
Using the HydroSlix™ Liner
Can I use HydroSlix™ Liner with condoms or other birth control methods?
HydroSlix™ Liners are currently undergoing testing for condom compatibility. Until we receive these results — we are not condom compatible.
Please note that HydroSlix™ Liners are not contraceptives or spermicides.
What if I have allergies or sensitive skin?
Do not use if you are allergic or sensitive to any of the ingredients.
Contact support@pelvahealth.com if you have any questions about the ingredients.
Can the HydroSlix™ Liner be used during pregnancy or postpartum?
Please consult with your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before use.
Will HydroSlix™ Liners make intimacy feel different for me or my partner?
HydroSlix™ Liners feature a soft cushion and slick surface texture for a pleasurable feel during use with your partner (experiences may vary). But let's be clear: anytime you add a new product into the bedroom, of course things change! (For the better, we hope!) We recommend trying HydroSlix™ Liners a few times to become familiar with their feel.
What if HydroSlix™ Liners don't work for me or my partner?
Our bodies, sexual preferences, desires, and experiences are all unique and can even vary day by day, which means everyone’s experiences may vary slightly. Sexual intimacy is very much influenced by more than just the physical.
On top of that, adding new products into the bedroom can often be a process that gets better with time! We really encourage you to give it a few tries before giving up.
The HydroSlix™ Liner feels cold! Is there any way to make it warm?
Do not microwave, boil, or heat the HydroSlix™ Vaginal Liner.
The HydroSlix™ Liner, when inserted into the vagina, will start to immediately warm within just a few minutes. After inserting the liner, we strongly recommend letting it warm inside the vaginal canal for at least ~60 seconds before use or when you feel your body relax around it.
If you prefer it to be a bit warmer before insertion, simply hold in your hand for a few moments before inserting as referenced here. Be careful to not squeeze too hard. Add additional lubricant if needed after warming in your hand.
How quickly does the HydroSlix™ Liner work?
Once inserted, the HydroSlix™ Liner is immediately ready to be put to work ;)
How do I insert the HydroSlix™ Liner?
The HydroSlix™ Liner is inserted via a small applicator just before sex or other intimate activity. Once inserted, the liner remains in place and stretches to accommodate your partner, vaginal trainer, dildo, or finger!
It’s discreet, takes seconds to apply, and is easily removed and disposed of afterward.
I’m nervous about insertion. How big is the applicator?
You aren’t alone. We designed the applicator to be about the width of a pinky finger, or a size 1 vaginal trainer.
If your preference is a larger applicator, you can use a vaginal trainer of your preference, a dildo, or a finger (just make sure to trim your finger nails!). Do not use any sharp or pointed objects to insert.
Can I use the HydroSlix™ Liner with lubricants or other products?
Yes! We recommend using HydroSlix™ Liners with your favorite water-based, silicone, or oil-based lubricants. Due to the temperature of the liner, coconut oil may solidify upon application to the liner, which will reduce glide.
The HydroSlix™ Liner can be used with silicone, plastic, glass, and metal toys, vaginal trainers, and more. Always feel free to reach out to us if you're unsure about pairing a specific device with the HydroSlix™ Liner.
How do I dispose of the HydroSlix™ Liner after use?
Simply remove it and throw it in the trash!
