I first tried this product a couple years ago after I found it at Target. It is an attractive little product, but I noticed some problems with it right away.

First, the "honey dust" is packaged in a little plastic sack inside a little satiny pouch. That doesn't sound so bad, but it makes it very difficult to store. You can either keep the plastic bag inside the pouch and have it crinkle and spill everywhere, or you can pour the dust inside the pouch and have it spill everywhere. Each time the pouch is cinched shut, a puff of honey dust escapes. Since this product contains things like silica and saccharine, it's not really something I want to inhale.

Second, the feathers started coming off the duster without any provocation. They also had a tendency to cling to my body when I applied the honey dust. As you can probably imagine, no one except Big Bird wants to lick up strawberry-flavored feathers. The feather duster is a terrible way to apply the dust since the feathers have enough surface area to pick up a significant amount of honey dust and then deposit it on the floor before you have a chance to apply it to your body.

The flavor of this product is mild, more of a suggestion of strawberry than anything. It feels like baby powder and leaves a bit of a sticky residue after it's been licked away. Even though this product is talc-free, it does contain silica (probably not the best thing to inhale) and a number of fragrance and flavoring compounds. If you're someone sensitive to fragrance, you may want to take a close look at the ingredient list. That said, the strawberry scent is mild and not overly sweet -- sort of like the strawberry portion of Neapolitan astronaut ice cream, or a strawberry milkshake.
