What Grease is best for what

I bought a Grease gun and the grease that came with it is red and my neighbour said its no good cause its not water proof :?

And Ive got this pinkish orangey sticky grease in one side of my bearings and the other side is just the dark black stuff.

What is the best grease to use in what :?: :?
