    Sounds a lot like a smooth. Would love to hear a report back…

        Yes, I think this series is supposed to be just that … smoothies.

    Sorry to be a cynic, but I’m dubious about the environmental claim, because the biodegradable formula is coming in a PLASTIC bottle, yes?

      Imagine adverts not being honest?!😜 Their claim, according to the blurb in the description is- “The gel does not contain microplastics – as defined by UNEP.” I guess the plastic bottle doesn’t count…

      I was mostly interested in the smell, but yes.

    This sounds absolutely gross. Who wants to smell like food?!

      Yes! that was my thought. I imagine by the end of a long sweaty day, with this on my skim, I might smell the way an empty yogurt container smells if it has been sitting in the sink all day and didn’t get rinsed well enough. Sour milk and overripe bananas with a fruit fly hovering. Ugh.
