Ready to take your medicine? I'm not...

It is not a lotion. It is not a lubrication. It is barely an oil. It does have a warming feature that is interesting though. At such a low price I think it is worth giving a try, just don't expect anything spectacular.

Use

What do I think is the best use for this product? Well... I'm not really sure what this is SUPPOSED to be. The bottle says it is a lotion. But this product is in no way lotion. This can not be used as lotion at all. It is not moisturizing, and does not go into the skin all that well.

Eden's site advertises it and categorizes it as a lubricant. I wouldn't use it as this either though. It is closest to a body oil, a very sticky one, which is not good as lubricant. Even as body oil, this isn't very good. Like I said, it is too sticky and does not absorb that well. I would use this for the heat aspect that it brings. If you like heat stimulation then this product packs the fire for you! When rubbed or blown on it gets hotter.

Texture / Consistency / Thickness / Viscosity

The texture of this is less desirable than I would like for a lotion, oil, or lubrication. The consistency is pretty good though. It is not runny, which would make a large mess. It is not so thick that it is hard to use. It is pretty sticky, and leaves a not so smooth skin surface behind.

Taste / Aroma

This is the biggest turn off for this product for me. I got the cherry flavor, and it cannot be ignored that it smells and tastes like cough syrup! Unless this was made for those with a medical fetish, I don't understand how this was overlooked. It is not arousing at all! It smells a bit better than it tastes, but it still tastes a bit like medicine. The smell is pretty strong too.

Performance

This doesn't last very long. I would say it lasts less than 5 minutes if you want to use the heating aspect of it. The liquid lasts much longer though. but I would not say this is good thing. I prefer it to absorb a bit more. After using this I feel like I need to shower, or wash the areas it was used on.

One way I really liked using it was on the ear lobes. I had never felt heat there like this before and it warmed my entire body! :)

Packaging

The packaging is HORRIBLE! This bottle leaks so much. I discovered this the hard way when it fell over in my night stand and made a puddle. Which by the way, did not clean up! It left a large oil like circle stain in the wood. Not cool! It seems to leak a bit, just during use as well. It is a pain in the butt to clean up. It is a decent size though, especially for the price. I imagine this would last a very long time.

Special Features

The special feature of this product is the heat feature it has. When it is rubbed on the skin vigorously, or it is blown on with air, it increases drastically in temperature. I can see that this might be a level that is too high for some users though.

Personal comments

This is only $5 and at that price, it is my personal opinion that it is worth a shot or two.
Follow-up commentary
I used this with a massage toy to give my boy friend a sensual heated massage. It did make him sticky, but I dragged him to the shower after so he forgave me :). This oil/lotion/lube or whatever it is, isn't so bad if you plan to take a while to clean up after wards.

    Ugh. I swear all cherry flavored sex stuff smells like cough syrup. It's totally on my "do not buy" list.

    Cool that it heated up well, though!

    I have only used this once or twice after this. It just isn't great. Also the bottle has created quite a mess. I have to keep it in a bag an dI honestly don't even know why I'm holding onto it.
