Massage therapy kit - massage kit discontinued by Kama Sutra - review by crushemall

Kama Sutra's sampler five pack of massage oils made my day. Usually when I see "sample pack," I shy away—who wants disposable, messy, slippery little one-use bottles? Well, each of *these* bottles are two full fluid ounces. In case you have never used massage oils before, two ounces is plenty.

These oils go on sooo smooth, are not greasy, and are not slimy like lube—they are amazing. I am never ashamed to whip these babies out (even half full! What they don't know doesn't hurt them ...) and spice up the night—or day, really. Nothing is better than gliding across your lover's skin with scented massage oil. Also, because the oil is so non-greasy, you have to use more of it than you'd think. In the end, however, this is a plus. Who wants to smooth a small amount of oil on during sexy time to find out they're in a bed of Crisco the rest of the night? No one. The skin absorbs the oil well (which, I might add, is amaaazing for your skin, especially dry skin) so that there is no mess. This ensures that, by the time you're in the mood, you won't be slipping all over each other.

The five scents—Soaring Spirit (Energize), Sweet Almond (Relaxation), Pleasure Garden (Sensual), Serenity (Quieting), and Healing Blend (Harmony)—are great for any mood you are in. My personal favorite is Sweet Almond—it smells classy, subtle, and sexy. These aren't cheap by any means—don't be scared off by the great price. Not only does Sweet Almond de-stress and relax me, it puts me in the mooood! And who isn't in the mood when they're utterly relaxed?

The five bottles come in a handy zip-lock plastic carrying case. The zip-lock broke on the first use, so don't expect to be able to use this for carrying. (They will leak out of their bottles, the sneaky bastards—and bitches!) Be ready by having a plastic baggie or buying your own classy, waterproof carrying case to prevent spills.

Maybe I'm not much of a sensualist, but these massage oils never got used much. Granted, they were good for the price, but if you're a true sensualist, who is looking for some quality contact time, go for a pricier selection.

All the bottles still leaked (I ended up throwing them out) and the plastic pouch's zipper top also broke, so there was no good place to keep them but in Ziploc baggies. It was a nice beginner set for someone who had never bought massage oils before, but I'd definitely spring for one, higher quality bottle next time over five leaky bottles.

The texture is still alright; not too sticky or gross for oils, and easily absorbed into your skin. However, the biggest deal breaker for me was the lack of a steadfast bottle; the last thing I want is a sticky sex drawer.
