A little bit of wetsuit shampoo mixed with water is a great lube. The stuff's made for wetsuits, so that's a positive. It works really well. You just mix it into a spray bottle and thoroughly spray the suit, then slide right in. Easy as pie.

Oh man, this is remind me something...Last week, in our marina, we were fixing broken pieces of outrigger for one customer's boat cause of hurricane Wilma..First dishwasher soap and then tryin another different lubricants, we ended up using vaseline and finally huuuuup right in place last piece..rofl
Indeed. I'm not sure about the percentage, but a good squirt of that into a spray bottle plus some water should do the trick. I just used such a potion with my Omer Mimetic (skin-in lining) which is very easy to tear, and I just slipped right in with no problems.
Try using Sorbelene,
its the base of most moisturises .
Dosent smell, wont rot anything, mixes well with water and goes very slippery,
Keeps your skin soft, and costs about 10.00 for a litre.
Just rub some onto the inside of you suit and flush it with water,
Works Great

That one might be good for your suit but it certainly isn't good for your skin. It's not really bad (like giving you rashes or something) but it dries out your skin a lot more than others do. After trying a lot of different shampoos and conditioners I came back to taking the most simple and cheap shampoo I can get, preferably not "skin-pH-neutral", without all that milk-and-honey-stuff they are currently having (didn't dare to try that one with my open cell), preferably smelling nice
. I don't like using conditioner. Jm2EURcc...

Coconut is awful but Aloe seems to work well.
Mix in a little water and lots of conditioner ,and slopp pop! Your in.
Just like putting on a used condom.

The guy who first told me about Unicure said that he and his two friends ordered a case, and their wives started using it for skin and hair so often that they had to order more.
Another dive buddy who has a very large dog with a skin problem orders it by the gallon and says it works great.
I haven't heard any testimonials yet for curing cancer or heart disease, but you never know.
