Review (5/5): works as advertised but remember few additional tips
This very thick and slippery gel is definitely different than your typical massage oil. Key is to follow the instructions on the bottle. Can't overemphasize that especially on the part where it says 'Take a shower or bath. Do not dry off' before using the gel. There are already very informative reviews posted on Amazon. With dry central heat in the room, it got tacky pretty quick. I had put the strong wooden bowl (containing the gel) into the bathroom sink of very hot water before use of the gel. A warm massage gel feels better than cold on the skin. When the gel becomes tacky (and it will unless your room is humid and temperature is super hot), spray some warm water on the skin to get the gel fluid again. Again, warm water feels better than cold unless you are both really hot and don't care what temperature the water is at. Keeping nearby a spray nozzle bottle with warm water should do the trick. As advertised, it seems to be taste-free. Not so sure it is fragrance-free but what 'smell' there was it seemed to be pleasant and very light scented.
