Sensual massage oil by KamaSutra

Kama Sutra has done a magnificent job with this line of massage oils. I am incredibly fond of almonds, so I picked up some of the “Sweet Almond” oil, and I couldn’t be happier with it. The oil is very light and soaks into the skin nicely without that greasy feeling that many products leave behind. It leaves skin shiny and smooth – almost velvety – without feeling oily.

The scent in the “Sweet Almond” oil is very strong, and after applying a small amount (a dab smaller than a dime) it is easily perceived from several feet away, but I found that the scent didn’t linger overly long and never became overpowering.

A small dab of this oil goes a very long way, so a bottle this size could probably last for ages. A friend of mine owns some Kama Sutra massage oil and she informs me that, despite using it on herself, her husband and their four kids, a single bottle of the oil has lasted her for over a year.

I’ve witnessed (and, I’ll admit it, taken part in – the stuff is irresistible and it smelled so good I just had to use it on myself as well) about an eighth of a cup of it being used on six people, covering most of the shoulders and the backs, with about 2/3 of the oil in the cup left over afterwards.

The oil is pleasant when used straight out of the bottle, but I find that it is even nicer when you pour it into a microwave safe dish and heat it up for about 30 seconds before use (make sure to check the temperature in order to prevent the possibility of accidental burns).

If you wish to start out with a sensual massage and move into other forms of play, the ingredient list does not contain anything that you cannot lick off your partner, although the flavor is unexceptional (nothing to please the palate, but nothing to displease it either).

Even if you don’t have a partner to use it with, I find that the oil works nicely as a moisturizer for my legs in the winter months when they are all dried out, and it only takes a dab to cover the legs with it.
