The body wash itself is very good, but I had problems with the packaging. The body wash is a gel, it lathers well but the suds and bubbles doesn't last long on the sponge (but this wasn't really an issue for me, it encourages you to shower faster). I didn't found it drying, but also not particularly hydrating, it's just OK, soft enough on my skin. The scent is pleasant, sweeter than I imagined, but nice. It reminds me more of a spicy cake instead of chai tea, it's sweet, vanilla-ry and milky. The smell does linger on the skin. However, the packaging.... I had to squeeze the tube very strongly in order to get the gel out of it. It seems that the opening is too small, and the gel too thick, so it doesn't flow properly. I did check that there was no protective seal or anything: the tube was completely open but you still have to squeeze it hard. This is neither easy nor pleasant to do with wet hands in the shower. I'm young and healthy and still had problems with the tube, so I imagine this gel is not good for elderly people, or people with articulation problems on the hands. That's why I give it only 3 stars. I had the same issue with a different body wash from the same brand, so it's not just a faulty tube, this happens with all body washes. To sum up, lovely gel, horrid container. Maybe I'll buy it again, cut open the tube and transfer the product to a proper container so that I don't have to struggle every morning in the shower.
