Weakest points
It is not the weakest point but some specification: the product’s consistency is not of a gel, but more of a lotion type.
I like ginger scent but I don’t like bergamot, so the aroma provokes ambivalent senses at first, but after using the product on my skin I like both the result and fragrance.

Very pleasant aroma of bergamot and herbs. The gel is quickly absorbed, making my skin soft and moisturized. A little sparsely, but it lacks a long time.

Summary
At first I loved the scent,i could really smell the ginger which I love and the slight hint of bergamot was also nice.
The gel has a great consistency and applied easily. On contact with the skin it feels really cooling and refreshing.
It absorbs well and leaves skin and senses feeling invigorated and refreshed.
no stickiness at all which was a bonus
leaves a nice scent on skin and skin adequately hydrated

I found the smell very powerful and it smells like herbs and ginger, similar to men's aftershave products,
The gel is very runny. I have used this body gel on my dry, flaky skin on my legs and elbows. i am pleased with the product, my skin is now soft and hydrated.
Thank you Beauty On Trial for sending me this 50ml sample to try
