Glowing Praise (Meditating In A Zen Garden)

I got this body spray because I loved this scent in a different product, and I wasn't disappointed with this one. It smells exactly like the sugar scrub with the same scent name, and it makes my nose very happy. It also makes my skin a little happier when sprayed!

Pros
Smells good, absorbs into my skin well
Cons
It's a little expensive for a body spray I guess, but very cheap compared to perfumes!

Use

The "Just Glow" dry oil perfume by the company Not Soap Radio is a body spray with skin-softening properties that is especially nice freshly applied after a soothing bath. It can be used with other products of the same scent to layer it and make it stronger. It can also be used as a linens spray or to freshen the smell of a room.

Another possible use is as a spray that both lightly smoothes and fragrances frizzy hair. If you have oily hair, I don't recommend using it that way, but people with dry curls like mine will be happy with its effects.

This body spray would make a great gift particularly for someone about to embark on a vacation or something due to the vacation-themed scents. It would also be a good gift for someone you know who just needs to relax or likes to smell good!

Despite this product being sold on a sex toy site, there is nothing sexual about it. The label is completely appropriate for anyone to read.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

The fragrance is sprayed on and leaves a slight shine to the skin. It feels a little oily and slick until rubbed in, but it absorbs nicely. I spray it on my wrists and rub them together. The skin there feels softer after. Despite my worry that it might stain clothes, I haven't had a problem with it yet.

The liquid in the spray bottle is completely clear and it comes out of the spray bottle easily.

Taste / Aroma

To me, this body spray smells the most like fruit, mostly melon, with a hint of ginger and some nice floral notes. I have the sugar body scrub in the same scent and they smell the same. I like it a lot and that's why I bought the spray, so I could have multiple products with the same delicious aroma. As I said in my review of the body scrub, I find it "soothing yet invigorating."

I find the strength to be pretty strong, both in the bottle and on the flesh. Not strong enough for people to comment on it or anything when I'm wearing it, but depending on where I spray it I can definitely smell it throughout my day. It's lasted at least four hours on me when sprayed on the wrists or collarbones.

If you don't like strong scents, this product probably isn't for you. I also recommend you read other reviews on this same scent to see other people's opinions on it. I loved this one, but other people have found it unpleasant. Another product in this particular scent described the scent as a "blend of lotus flower, cooling greens, ginger, and hint of melon."

Since this isn't an edible product, I'm not going to be tasting it. Sorry if you were curious!
    • Smells good
    • Strong smell

Performance

This product lasts at least four hours on my skin, with just one or two sprays. If I want to wash it off, I just use soap and water. It doesn't stick around after a shower or anything.

What I like most about this product is the smell and the way it makes my skin feel softer, almost like a spray-on lotion. There really isn't anything I don't like here. It doesn't get sticky and the smell doesn't transform into something bizarre from my body chemistry like some strong body sprays and colognes have.
    • Absorbs into skin nicely
    • Long lasting

Packaging

Eden sent the bottle wrapped in plastic to keep it from leaking. I appreciate that!
The bottle itself is a little over six and a half inches tall and holds 4.1 fluid ounces of the product. I like that it was filled all the way to the top unlike some bath and body products I've purchased that contained a stingy amount.

The bottle is clear with a black spray top and has a purple label around the middle. It says "I'm not here, I'm really meditating in a zen garden." Over to the right it encourages relaxation, saying "Sayonara noise, stress, hectic life. Stop distractions. Be still. Mind clear. Feel the smooth sand, coarse rock. Breathe in, exhale slowly. Soul cleansed. Reality transcended. Enlightenment achieved." Oh, if only enlightenment could be had from applying a body spray.

The instructions are on the other side: "Gently mist this blend of exotic fragrances and essential oils all over for lit from within, sensuous, silky skin." While the bottle says "all over," I highly recommend you try to keep this stuff away from your eyes and face. Not just for the sake of not having stinging eyes, but also because the oiliness would probably make any acne worse.

Ingredients: Cyclomethicone, colorless jojoba oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, fragrance.
Oh, the mysterious "fragrance!" Be sure to test a patch of skin with this in case of allergies before use.

I noticed there were no parabens, phtalates, sulfates, etc. and the manufacturer website confirmed this. Sweet!


    • Discreet looking packaging
    • Easy to use / dispense
    • Minimal
Follow-up commentary
I still love it and have a ton left. I keep it on my desk so I can smell it just because I love the scent so much! I still recommend it to anyone who likes refreshing, floral body sprays.

    Excellent review! I just love the whole Zen garden theme. I'm really unsure on this as I am someone who has a darn picky nose -- migraine prone and scents tend to be huge triggers for me. But I am actually considering this after your review. I really appreciate your in-depth information about the strength and aroma of this. It sounds like a fabulous, clean scent! I may just buy some and if my nose and head disagree, could always give it away I suppose. Thanks for the wonderful review, Gold Lion!
