Honey dust - edible powder by Kama Sutra - review by badk1tty

I remember being a little girl growing up in Hawaii, and stopping on the walk home from school to pick honeysuckle buds from the neighbors yard and suck out the nectar. This is exactly what Kama Sutra's "Sweet Honeysuckle" brought me back to.

The tin it comes in is very high quality, and even traveling with me stuffed in my suitcase to visit my soldier in Texas, it held up well. There is not a dent or scratch, and this was shoved however it would fit, so that alone speaks volumes for the quality. The outside is an olive green, beige, and black medley that doesn't scream "sex toy" at all, and I plan to keep it on my dresser next to the rest of my frou-frou smelly stuff. Inside the tin is a little black velvet bag, and tucked inside of that is a bag with the powder. On top of the bag is the feather applicator.

When I first opened the tin, the scent was somewhat overwhelming and almost off putting, but when I poured it out of the little plastic bag it came in and into the tin, and used the feather applicator to apply it to my skin, the scent became much lighter, and a lot more pleasant.

As I said previously, I used this for the first time visiting my husband in Texas. If you've never been to Texas in the summer, I'd advise you wait, unless sweating like a sinner in church is your bag. I was scared to use this stuff, because I thought I would start sweating and end up gross and sticky. I didn't. I did sweat, don't get me wrong, but I didn't end up sticky.

It smells like real honeysuckle, faint and sweet without being overpowering. It tastes just as good, and when I kissed my arm, (as ridiculous as that sounds) it left a lingering honey taste on my lips. My husband noticed it as well when he was kissing my neck later that day, so it does have staying power, as long as it's not getting washed off.

I use it nearly every day now, just because the scent is nice, and it has a faint shimmer to it. I would suggest not putting it on right after a shower, because it can clump on damp skin. For me, I put it liberally on and around my breasts and cleavage, places that I generally experience more dampness.

I gotta say, I'm more than a little pissed off about the falsely advertised ingredient list, because mine was certainly more than just "Corn Starch, Natural Honey, Fructose, Honeysuckle". Other than this (fairly large) discrepancy, I really enjoyed this purchase.

Ingredients: corn starch modified, glucose, zea mays (corn) starch, honey (mel/miel), silica, honey (miel) extract/extrait de miel, sodium saccharine, fragrance (parfum), sodium benzoate, amyl cinnimal, benzyl alcohol, eugenol, hydroxy citronellal, benzyl salicylate, geraniol, linalool, citronellol, benzyl benzoate.
