System JO personal feminine spray - spray discontinued by System JO - review by MyDolceVita

System JO Personal Feminine Spray says it is used to control odor and absorb moisture. What it really does is leave you smelling like peaches and cream oatmeal and CAN (as in not every time) leave what looks like a bleach stain in your panties and even the crotch of your jeans.

When I first got the product, I was excited because, well, the price was very affordable for feminine care. Ladies, you know what I'm talking about. Feminine products (that work well) are NOT cheap. They may seem affordable the first time around, but once you keep buying, it can really add up. So $13 for a 4 fl. oz. bottle wasn't all that bad. Especially since I have used it for about a month and it still feels like I just bought it.

My first time use wasn't bad. The directions say to shake the bottle well, then spray in your crotch region. Personally, I'm not comfortable with putting some kind of scented spray directly on my crotch, so I put it on my inner thighs. The smell? I kid you not, if you have ever had peaches and cream oatmeal, that's what this spray smells like. The feel of it wasn't at all comfortable. What I expected from the feel of the spray was that it would dry pretty quickly, considering what the spray is meant to do: absorb moisture. Nope, not really. I found myself looking like a lunatic fanning at my crotch for the spray to set before I could put on my panties.

I find the best results for a nice fresh smell is to use this spray after you have showered. That way, you're already clean, and the spray is just meant as an extra little "oomph." The product says that it is made with all natural, herbal ingredients, which could be the reason why the smell was a little off to me. I'm not quite sure what I expected, maybe fresh linen, or a soapy smell. Neither of which describe this personal feminine spray.

After a while, I did notice that my panties looked like they had been bleached in the crotch, and in one pair of jeans, the inside AND outside of the crotch are lighter than the rest of the jean, as if I have been scrubbing at them or had some kind of accident and needed to pay extra attention to that region. Thank goodness that part of my jeans isn't noticeable, so I am still able to wear them.

There's really nothing to say about this product anymore. I stopped using it because of the fading it causes on panties and clothes. Even after waiting for it to set and putting my clothes on, they still fade. My panties now have what looks like bleach stains at the crotch. I do not recommend this product.
