Dona body polish - scrub discontinued by System JO - review by js250

The texture is slightly gritty and thick. The scrub has clear beads which are sued to exfoliate your skin along with the rest of the ingredients. When you look at the scrub, you will notice a bunch of blue flecks and the thickness of the product. (Do not taste this, I accidentally did and it took quite awhile to get the soapy and bitter flavor out of my mouth. How could I taste this accidentally? Well, I rubbed this on my fingers trying to get the texture right for the review and just wiped them off and wouldn't you know it, I got one of my hairs in my mouth...Yep, not good!!)

The aroma starts out very light and smells like pureed cucumbers. It does change to a light, lily of the valley aroma. It is an extremely light aroma that does not last on your skin after washing it off. It is very relaxing and pleasing to the senses.

When scooped out and applied to the wet pouf, it will stay in place. When scrubbed over your skin, it feels mildly gritty and does have a very light lather to it. I was surprised at the very light lather, but must admit it made me feel like it worked better.

I used this followed by the body wash and the body butter. My skin is very soft, moisturized and has a faint smell of the Lily of the Valley scent. This has lasted about 4 hours and since I am currently getting ready for bed, I will let you know in the follow up how long the aroma actually lasted. Actually, this is now the next morning-I am finishing this review a bit later than I thought. There is still the lightest hint of aroma if I hold my arm up to my nose - other than that, nothing. My skin is still super soft, though, so the nourishing and moisturizing properties do work as promised.

This seems like a good scrub, but without the extremely gritty feeling, I am not sure if it exfoliated as well as others I have tried. There seemed to be some moisturizing properties, and the lather was a nice touch. I do recommend using this if you have the whole product line, it does add strength to the light and faint aroma and makes it last longer when it is layered with all the products.

There really is not a lot to add to the previous reviews on this product. I am basically writing this review as a scent description. With the different lines of aphrodisiac, it is sometimes hard to choose which scent you will ultimately like. This one is very feminine, light and refreshing.

Blue Lotus is an Egyptian water lily known to provide a relaxing, euphoric sensation and bring heightened awareness and tranquility. It is said to strengthen the bond between couples.

I am very happy that I decided to buy one line of the Dona products. I usually end up with a mix-n-match of scents, in this case aphrodisiacs, so having a complete line is an experience.

I also finished buying the final product in another line as well. Hmmm...am I learning something here? Yes! Fragrances or products in the same aroma/group of a specific brand of products are meant to be used together for maximum product benefits. I have just learned an important lesson in layering.
