Unlike other anal sprays or creams that can numb the sphincter and lead to tearing, this herbal mist does not cause numbing effects. The anal sphincter is relaxed, making penetration more comfortable. Intimate Earth Adventure's unique formula contains a certified organic extract blend with the natural power of clove, goji berries, aloe, and lemongrass. Intimate Earth natural anal relaxing spray does not contain the synthetic compound benzocaine. Adventure works quickly and is easy to apply.
