Sliquid Silk

  Above is a picture of the sample packet of Sliquid Organics Botanically Infused lubricant. Picking up sample packets of lubricant before committing to a full sized bottle is always a good idea as there are so many different lubricants for different needs. It's best to sample until you find what fits your needs. I've heard some serious hype and raving about Sliquid's products. Since they are a bit pricey, I've only used sample packs. Sliquid is a company that is dedicated to bringing women the best and safest ingredients possible. Afterall, parabens aren't that big of a turn on, right? Strangely enough, I've managed to become quite fond of Liquid Silk which is stuffed with parabens *shame on me*.

I wanted less paraben and more healthy. I imagined since Liquid Silk was a favorite that Sliquid's line would impress me just as much. I'm super interested in trying their lubricants and especially the bath products, but now that I've sampled one lube, I'm not sure I'd pay the price for a full sized bottle.

 Sliquid is a hybrid lubricant. It is both silicone and water based. It contains Dimethicone which lead me to the assumption that it would create that silky feel like Liquid Silk and other silicone lubes. However, I don't feel any silky, slipperyness like I do with Liquid Silk.

Stil Sliquid has some very amazing things about it.

 It's free of parabens and glycerin(yay!) So for those of you who are prone to UTI's, yeast infections and irritation, this is a wonderful lubricant. It contains healing ingredients and is great for dryness.

INGREDIENTS:

Purified water, Plant Cellulose (from cotton), Aloe Barbadensis, Natural Tocopherols (Vitamin E), Extracts Hibiscus, Flax, Green Tea and Sunflower Seed, Isopropyl Palmitate, Polysorbate 20, Dimethicone, Emolient Ester, Phenoxyethanol (Rose ether)

 Sliquid is a bit creamy and runny, but will stay where you put it. It's white in color, resembles sperm just a little and feels natural. It lasts a while, but not as long as Liquid Silk. With Sliquid, I needed to reapply a few times throughout a 50 minute period of time. I love that it leaves behind no residue, greasyness, etc. With the healing and non-harmful ingredients and no slimey or sticky residue afterward, I felt fine leaving it there for a while before showering. If a lot is used it can dry a tiny bit sticky after a couple of hours.

Sliquid feels amazing when used for massage! I love using it for that. It's also soothing on sun burns. It is an incredible lubricant and will prove very useful for some, especially with dryness. Unlike most lubricants, Sliquid does penetrate the skin and absorb, but it does so quickly. Still, even if it's absorbed quicker than you want, it's working nicely for your skin. While it does create a nice glide, I wouldn't call it slippery or silky.

 Here's what the back of the sample pack says:
"Created to help your body feel the natural sensations of skin to skin contact. Ideal to use on delicate body tissue, and for women with sensitivities."

 "Offering women a healthier choice, this glycerin and paraben-free lubricant has been blended with certified organic botanicals that heal, support and rejuvenate your body."

Zen Organics Professional and Personal Massage and Moisturize

Zen Organics is a company that offers high quality, non toxic professional massage therapy products. Here I'll be mentioning my thoughts on the Dual-action Massage Creme for massage therapy and the Daily Moisturizer for skin therapy.

*DUAL ACTION MASSAGE CREME FOR MASSAGE THERAPY*

  This rich and wonderful Dual Action Massage Creme is outstanding for professional or personal massages.  Zen Organics massage products are by far the best I have ever used. 

  Being a thick and rich cream, the last thing I really expected was for it to create a slippery surface for gliding your hands over the skin for a deep massage, but this really impressed me! This is the perfect alternative to greasy massage oils as the Dual Action Massage Creme (and all of Zen organic's products) are never greasy and never leave behind any kind of sticky or greasy residue and I'm a freak about lotions and the like leaving that sticky like feeling in between my fingers. It has a wonderful thick consistency without being too runny and not overly thick that it's hard to spread around.

  I've found myself using the Zen Organics massage products every chance I get. The stuff is amazing! Like nothing I've ever used before. This unscented massage cream is absolutely amazing for moisturizing and is long lasting so no worries about it absorbing before your massaging session is done! A quarter size amount of the Dual Action Massage Creme will cover the entire back in most cases and will last throughout an entire massage. After several minutes I like to add a small dab more, but it's not really needed since it's so long lasting. 

  I've recieved and given massages with the Zen Organics Massage products and it's made both the experience of giving a massage and the experience of recieving one more than enjoyable!  I've never used another professional massage product that felt this wonderful.

  After giving a massage and washing my hands, they'll still be extremely smooth hours later. For moisturizing the body such as legs, arms, etc. you can't get any better or longer lasting than this. I like it for just regular everyday moisturizing too and would even choose this over any of my other regular lotions.  This particular unscented massage creme is also nut-free and is recommended for full body and partial massage treatments. I've had many compliments when using Zen Organics for massages! I used it on my own skin before using on anybody else's and I noticed my skin taking a very youthful look to it, almost like a child's skin! My arms and legs have never looked so good! After massaging others with the same products I've had more than a couple of people tell me their skin looked "so young!" It's like a miracle and does wonders for severely dry skin and "alligator skin" or those little cracks you see in your skin sometimes. I've also heard one person say it heals their ashy skin better than Gold Bond. Lol. I totally agree!


  INGREDIENTS:
Purified Water, Carthamus Tinctorius (Safflower Seed Oil*), Isopropyl Palmitate (from Palm Kernel), Emulsifying Wax NF (from Corn), Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond Oil*), Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter*), Macadamia Ternifolia (Macadamia Nut Oil*), Mixed Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Extract*, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Extract*, Camelia Sinensis (Green Tea) Extract*, Bee Pollen Extract, Citrus Sinensis (Orange Flower) Extract*, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile) Extract*, Macrocystis Pyrifera (Sea Kelp*) Extract, Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate (Vegetable Enzyme Preservative )*, Sorbic Acid (from Ash Tree), Citric Acid (from Citrus Fruit). *Organic, Certified Organic or Wild Crafted. No Artificial Color or Fragrance. No Animal Ingredients. No Animal Testing.

It's completely safe to use (unless you just so happen to be allergic to one of the ingredients listed) so I don't ever have to worry about massaging someone and having them break out in hives! Lol. Not a fun experience. 

My partner was on the lucky end of recieving a massage from me and I used several of Zen Organics Massage products, but only one per massage so I could better tell what exactly each product would do. He sure loved it! 




*UNSCENTED DAILY MOISTURIZER PERSONAL SKIN THERAPY*

  The Daily Moisturizer is perfect for moisturizing any part of the body and is absolutely the only product I've found that will keep your skin from being dry and scaly for longer than overnight. I can still feel the silky-ness on my legs after a shower! It's also great for use after shaving as it does not irritate the skin after being shaved at all like most lotions do. It's soothing and leaves every part looking young, healthy and feeling like silk! I can't stop feeling of my legs after using this stuff. I used it overnight and it was still working perfectly by the next evening! This is some heavy-duty stuff. This moisturizer is wonderful for healing the skin from everyday damage. I even had a tiny bit left over on my hands and happened to be rubbing my lips which were chapped and had a couple of raw spots from nervous habits and I realized I must have gotten some on my lips since they were feeling super smooth and not cracked anymore! I'm not sure how safe that is, but I thought it was really neat that the stuff made such a difference in my sore lips just from rubbing them after I'd gotten a little on my hands.

  As with all of the Zen Organics products I've used, this doesn't leave any kind of sticky or greasy residue behind and I doubt you'll find a product from Zen Organics that does leave residue behind. They're all outstanding. 

INGREDIENTS:
ngredients: Purified Water, Cocos nucifera (Coconut Oil*), Glycerine, Helianthus annuus (Sunflower Seed*) Oil, Glycerol Stearate, Cetyl Alcohol, Sodium Stearyl Lactylate, Sodium PCA, Butyrospermum Parkii Seed (Shea*) Butter, Mangifera Indica Seed (Mango*) Butter, Anthemis Nobilis (Chamomile*) Extract, Sambucus Nigra (Elder Flower*) Extract, Lavendula Angustifolia (Lavender*) Extract, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary*) Extract, Salvia Officinalis (Sage*) Extract, Thymus Vulgaris (Thyme*) Extract, Potassium Sorbate, Sodium Hydroxymethylglycinate (Vegetable Enzyme Preservative), Lauramidoyl Inulin, Carbomer, Citric Acid(from Citrus Fruit). *Organic, Certified Organic or Wild Crafted.

I mentioned how wonderfully silky my skin is after using this, I assume this is because of the "unique texture" that exfoliates skin. How cool! 

The Daily Moisturizer is infused with botanical and multi-vitamins and is toxin free.
