As exclusive sponsor, Astroglide will provide product samples and literature for Tristan to distribute at her events.

''I think Astroglide Gel is the best lube on the market for anal penetration, and I love their new glycerin-free, paraben-free lube. I’m excited they’ve come out with a new silicone lube. I already recommend Astroglide products to people and feature them in my videos.''

Lisa O’Carroll, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at BioFilm, says, ''We are thrilled to be working with such a well-respected woman in both sex education and the adult industry.
