Attention, all chocoholics. Please don’t read this article. It may make you break into a sweat, get dizzy, and crave that box of Lindt you’ve shoved under your bed. But if you’re one of those rare individuals whose will power is better than that of Lance Armstrong, then read on.
Well, it may well be Christmas in August. Being a huge fan of all things made by Ojon, I was like a pig in mud when I heard about the Ojon® Rare Harvest™ Tawaka™ "The Ball".
I had to have it, hold it, smell it. So when the box arrived for me, I went berserk as a true chocoholic and beauty addict would. Here’s what I found:
And later this:
Until it became this:
At this point Butterscotch, my golden retriever, was twitching her nose a million times a minute and almost wolfed down my precious ball. No!
The first thing that struck me when I beheld it was the smell. Ah, the smell that only Ojon lovers and chocolate lovers will appreciate and revel in. In the box I discovered a beautiful handcrafted wooden bowl that made a lovely resting place for the product.
The ball is meant to be used twice weekly in the shower. Ideal for dry or parched skin, the ball rolls easily over your body and also moisturizes and refines skin texture. It contains a high dose of Ojon oil that is replete with essential fatty acids. It also contains crushed Ojon shells to exfoliate your skin.
Your white bathtub will look as though a muddy river runeth through it. But my skin didn’t itch or feel dry once after using it, and the faintest chocolate smell lingered all over my body.
I have to say I’m tempted to dig into it with a spoon and keep you posted**….
Ojon Tawaka “The Ball” retails for $65 at Sephora and at www.ojon.com
**Full disclosure: upon completion of the shower, the author succumbed to her weakness and ate an entire box of Godiva dark chocolate truffles.

[...] is the thing our skin craves this season. And Ojon is what our skin secretly craves. Remember the Black Ball we wrote about? The one that smelt exactly like chocolate and the one that my Golden Retriever [...]
I can never be angry with Butterscotch. She has the eyes of an angel. She has good taste! :)
Did you forgive Butterscotch? :)
Hey Shannon, I totally loved it! Glad you enjoyed :)
CJ, I am so glad you also thought it smelled like chocolate! I thought I was the only one! I think it’s heavenly.
Sorry to hijack, but I wanted you to know that I just got my first pair of glasses from goggles4u.com, based on your post.
They are perfect! High style and high quality for $26 including shipping! I’ll definitely be ordering several more pairs. Thanks for the recommendation!
