Slip Sliding Away
I love Shunga's products, and I have many of them. Though this wasn't really a success for us, it definitely was an experience not to be missed.Published: July 14, 2009
Pros:
Smells and tastes great, a very slippery wet experience.
Cons:
Not enough product, too small an area to play in.
When I first saw the Shunga Body Slide on the Edenfantasys web site, I immediately thought of my husband and a fantasy of his to have sex in an oil pit. This definitely would not be my type of fantasy, but then again I'm not a water person at all. But I love my husband, and wanted to make his dreams come true. So I told him about this and we decided to give it a try.
The Shunga Oriental Body Slide comes in a beautiful black cardboard box, with Asian erotic art on it. It contains 2 bottles, a gold plastic sheet and a complete instruction manual. The massage gel comes in several flavors. We chose the fruit one. I really liked the scent of it, and the flavor was very mild, reminiscent of a tropical fruit drink.
There is a bit of preparation to using this. First you lay out a mat of some kind on the floor. Do use the floor, because this gets very slippery! We used a thick comforter. Next you roll 4 large towels lengthwise like tubes, and lay them down around the 4 sides of your bed, creating a rectangular border for your pit. Our bath towels didn't seem to be quite big enough, so we had to use an extra towel on each side of the long end of the bed.
Once you have that all set up lay down the gold sheet, making sure that it covers the towels and overlaps them approximately 12 inches on each side. We were quite surprised actually once this was done, because it made for a rather small bed. It was a little bigger than a twin, but not quite as big as a full bed, and my 5' 9" husband's head and feet were hitting the top and bottom towels.
Now it's time to mix the ingredients. Get a pitcher that holds one gallon. Pour in the contents of bottle #1, which was a thick sea blue gel that smelled divine! Next add 3 1/2 quarts of warm water, then the contents of bottle #2. Now you stir it all together. Use something stiff to stir it with because it creates a somewhat thick gel.
Next have your partner lie down, and pour the contents over them. I poured it on my husband, and was quite surprised by how little one gallon of liquid is when poured over someone. I don't know what I thought it was going to look like, but it didn't even completely cover him. Once we got to playing in our pit, the liquid was pretty much everywhere. But I think what he was looking for and what I had expected was more of a shallow pool. You will not have that with this product.
So after I poured it on him I dove in. It was wet and very slippery. We found it a bit difficult to do anything because every movement caused one of us to slip away. Thrusting was impossible without flying off the bed. If we ever do anything like this again we need things to grab onto for leverage. It just seemed nothing was working right. We tried and tried but finally gave up. I do have to say that we laughed. A lot!
Clean up was easy. We just grabbed the corners of the sheet and poured it down the tub, followed by hot water, and threw the sheet in the trash. I love Shunga's products! I have many of them. Maybe it was just us, I don't know. Even though this wasn't what I expected, I'm not exactly sure what I did expect. And even though it wasn't my type of a sexual or sensual experience, I have to say I'm glad I tried it.

Follow-up commentary
30 days after original review
This was a one time use only product. So of course I've never used it again since my first review. I guess it was worth trying it once because I still have the laughs and the memories. But I can tell you that I would not purchase this again.

I really like the idea behind this product but find it such a shame that it is a one time use according to NuMe's review. I was wondering if anyone has tried to do something similar at home using other products. I was thinking of baby oil but I wouldn't want to engage in sex if that would mean baby oil would get inside me. I even thought of getting crazy amounts of lube but I don't think it would be good for my wallet. I want something that I can do over and over again without it costing me 100$ everytime.
If you have advice it would be greatly appreciated! -

Combine that with a shower curtain (after it's been aired and washed) and you could have pretty much the same thing.

I like coconut oil because it stars out solid and melts with body heat.
I think there are some sheets out there designed for wet play, there is a set on EF from Liberator, but it's not in stock—maybe investing in something that is durable and will last through many uses would be a better choice than a disposable sheet.
You can also go the route my friend goes when she wants to create a giant Slip N Slide for the kids—roll of black plastic tarp from the hardware store. :)

Thank you for viewing Body slide – sensual kit review page!



this sounds like fun
good honest review, not sure if its worth all the preparation
Thanks! Personally, I don't think so. But it was worth trying even just that once.
Thanks for the honest review. The clear information on the size of the pool it creates, and how little liquid there is to put in it really helps a lot. I am still not sure if it seems worth the trouble, but I'm glad you 2 had fun with it!
Thank you indiglo!
Thank you!
Great review
Fun read! Curious to try it now
Ok, so I tried it and- EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE AS YOU! Too slippery.
If you already purchased this, it was an OK experience, but not something to purchase again.
