Sensuous Beauty's Breast Balm is probably my favorite massage product. This natural balm rubs in very smoothly with the perfect amount left on the skin for a good massage. The jar states that this product tones, rejuvenates, and soothes breasts. I have had this rubbed onto my breasts before my period a few times, which did soothe my sore breasts a little. I haven't noticed any toning of my breasts, though.

I don't recommend using this balm as a lubricant, as it is made up of several different oils, which can break down a latex condom. It could be used as a male lubricant for hand jobs or genital massage. My boyfriend has the Men's Pleasure Cream, which is nearly the same product as this, as far as consistency and feel go. There are just different oils used in the pleasure cream.

While the price of this balm is pretty high, the amount in the jar is enough to last for quite a while. We have used this several times and have yet to really make a dent in the jar.

Breast Balm is just as thick as a jar of lip balm. As it is rubbed with fingers to get it out of the jar, it becomes a little bit thinner, just enough to massage into skin without making a mess. It doesn't drip anywhere and is very easy to apply exactly where it is needed.

After applying a small amount, it soaks into my skin pretty quickly, though there is a bit left on top of my skin to aid in massage. It feels like any other kind of cream or thick lotion once it has been massaged in. Even though it has a lot of oil in it, I don't think it feels too greasy. Typically we use enough to cover the palms of our hands with a thin layer for a breast massage. By the time the massage has ended, most of this has been absorbed by my skin. I usually go to sleep without washing this off and by the time I wake up, I have absolutely nothing left on my skin.

I absolutely love the smell of this balm. It smells exactly like roses. The scent is a little overpowering, especially when using it in a smaller bedroom with no open doors or windows. Washing this off will get rid of the scent. I have noticed that my sheets have a slight rose fragrance to them after sleeping on them with this massaged into my skin, though it's not very strong. I do occasionally get a slight headache from the scent after a while, which does happen sometimes when candles or body products smell too strongly.

Applying just a bit of this would work great as an alternative to a body spray. It could clash with other body products, like deodorants or lotions, depending on the scents. I think it smells fine with my fresh water orchid scented deodorant.

I can't identify any sort of taste from this at all. Putting some on my finger tip to taste just gave me an oily, greasy feeling on my tongue.

A thin layer applied to the hands is enough to provide a good breast massage. You may need to apply more, depending on how slick you want the massage to be. We typically use this for about a 30 to 45 minute massage without any real need afterward to wash this off. I absolutely love the smooth feeling of this balm, especially since my partner has rough, calloused hands. It really just makes hands glide right over the skin.

The easiest way to clean this off of the body is in the shower. After scrubbing this off with my body wash and bath sponge, I have absolutely no trace of it left when I am done. A quick wash with some hand soap in the sink will get this off of hands.

While I have gotten some of this on my bedding, I have not noticed any staining or oil spots. A run through the washer eliminates any of the rose fragrance that got on my sheets.

Breast Balm comes in a 3 ounce glass jar about 1 3/4 inches tall and 2 3/4 inches across. When I got my jar, it took us quite a while to actually open it. The lid was stuck on somehow and we were unable to get it off with hot water or a lid opener. It was pretty difficult to get a grasp on the smooth plastic lid, so both of us were pretty aggravated with it. After a few days of giving it a try every now and then, it finally opened. After getting it opened the first time, the lid has not become stuck again and is pretty easy to remove.

I have dropped this on my carpeted floor a few times without any breaks or cracks in the glass. Since this is a balm, it does not leak at all. The lid seals on tightly so that even if this is dropped in a sink full of water, nothing gets in.

The jar lists the ingredients, instructions for use, and what this product is supposed to do for you. It also includes a 1-800 number and Sensuous Beauty's web site. The instructions state to rub a small amount onto hands to warm the balm up, and then massage gently into the skin with a circular motion. It also says that this product can be combined with a self-examination of the breasts. Use of this product is supposed to tone, rejuvenate, and soothe breasts.

Ingredients:

Sweet almond oil, wildcrafted Lady's Mantle infusion, beeswax, vitamin E, pure essential oils of rose geranium, organic Bulgarian rose otto and organic labdanum.

As with the rest of Sensuous Beauty's products, this is a 100% natural product and is not tested on animals.

I think the jar is pretty discreet. I leave it sitting on my dresser with some of my other Sensuous Beauty products without anyone really getting up close and inspecting it. My mom pretty much just glanced at it once when she saw it, though she lost any interest in it when she saw a bunch of lubes and stuff sitting on my bedside table. The label design is pretty cute and minimal.

I feel this is discreet and small enough to travel with, though it may need to be wrapped in clothing or bubble wrap to keep the jar from breaking.
