The use of this duo is exactly what you would imagine. The body wash lathers with ease, smells delectable, and leaves you smelling like it's sweet scent. The lotion is intended to add moisture to your skin without making your feel greasy. It will make you smell like that scent all through the day and into the following morning. The body wash can be used all over the body and so can the lotion(I do recommend against using the lotion on the vaginal area though).

This lotion is so creamy and smooth, I would even recommend it for massaging. The only dilemma you might have is if you use it on your male spouse, they may have a hard time ridding themselves of the scent.

Body Wash
The wash is not thin, but is runny. It easily pours onto a sponge or loofah. It doesn't take much effort at all to get this wash to lather. Add a little water to your wash cloth of choice and rub. Within seconds it bubbles and lathers and it ready to wash you clean.

Hand Crème
The crème is far thicker than the wash. It doesn't pour out like the wash does, but instead requires a firm squeeze of the bottle to get some out. Since it is so thick, it doesn't require a bit of rubbing to get it completely rubbed in. Against your skin it is slick and creamy. There are no beads, grit, or anything of the like in this cream, it is extremely velvety. After it has been rubbed in, it doesn't make your skin feel greasy, but instead makes you extremely soft.

Both items of the duo share the same exact smell. I really appreciate this fact because often time I will buy a lotion and body wash set and they won't smell the same. With this duo, I was slightly surprised and very happy.

The notes of "Desserted Island" are anything but subtle. The scent is bold and one of the reasons I love it most is because it smells like it would taste great because it has a very sweet smell. The back of the lotion bottle states that it smells like vanilla and coconut, and I would firmly agree. Though the vanilla is the most noticeable scent. What is really incredible about this duo is how long the scent lasts. After using the lotion, you can still smell this scent on yourself the following morning. It washes off with ease as well, and after a shower this smell is no longer on your skin. Personally, if this smell came as a perfume, I would order a lifetime supply.

I don't recommend tasting the body wash, even though it will smell so good you might want to. But the lotion, after being rubbed in, is tasteless. Your skin will still taste like skin. If I could improve this product in one way, I would want my skin to taste as good as it smells.

I could not speak more highly of this duo or it's performance. The body wash does clean your skin and leave you smelling subtly sweet and the lotion really intensifies the smell without being overbearing. I am also impressed with how well the lotion works to moisturize my skin without making me feel greasy. I mean, Vaseline moisturizes skin too, but it makes you feel incredibly greasy(and doesn't smell nearly as sweet). When used sparingly, it makes your skin feel soft for the day, but when used daily, it does help to soften skin for the longer run.

I was pleased with the lathering ability of the body wash, but I was really impressed with how well the lotion rubs into skin. I does require a bit of rubbing, but once it is rubbed in, literally, the only thing left behind is the smell(and your softer skin). The lotion will make you smell like vanilla and coconuts until you wash it off.

This duo comes in a box together and is very clearly(and proudly) labeled as being a Cake product. The lotion is labeled as being 3.4 fl. oz. and the body wash bottle claims to hold 17.4 fl. oz.. The lid of the lotion can be lifted for a quick squeeze on the go and snaps when is pushed back down into it's locked position. I could see this being easily taken on the go and jostled about in a purse without any leakage problems. The body wash's bottle is equally as easy to use. The lid of this component is a push top. When you push down on one side, the opposing lifts up enough to squeeze a little out(you could even let it slowly drizzle out). Pushing the lifted side back down closes and seals it back up. You will again hear a little snap when it's closed.

The box and body wash bottle can be recycled and should be set out as such when you are finished with them. The box is paper, and the body wash has the recyclable triangle on the bottom of the bottle. The lotion bottle is not labeled as being recyclable, but I would assume it would be recyclable as well and I will set mine out as such. I will let you know in my follow up if I had any issues.
