am I crazy if I prefer NO OIL at all?

[Nancy L]

for some reason a massage feels more organic to me if it's skin on skin; the layer of oil just feels artificial to me, and I absolutely hate feeling oily the rest of the day
I usually visit MPs during the work day, and I cannot get completely oil free (the shower at the MP itself is never adequate, the soap always sucks)

anyone else prefer a non-oil massage

for the release, it makes it a little tough, but it's possible; I wonder if I could ask for a soap+water release instead?

sorry, just ranting...

 

[Declan]

I also don't allow them to use oil on me.... I also can't get it off of me no matter how much soap I use.... It doesn't seem to affect the massage since I usually opt for the NR.....

I do have them use oil on the release.... it wouldn't be the same without it....

 

[ERIN R]

me 2, i hate oil...........not very comfortable walking/working feeling your clothes stuck on to you, especially when ur sweating.

Well it would appear that I now have something to think about. I've always just gone ahead and asked for oil whenever prompted. I've never tried powder and I definitely have never tried hands only. There's no real glide if they just use their hands, is there??

Maybe I'll try asking for powder next time.

Ever have them do the finish WITHOUT oil?

 

[Luke T]

oh but there is
if they have smooth hands, it feels really good - no artificial layer in between you two, more intimate feeling
my body is generally very smooth too, so maybe that's why it works with me



haven't had the courage, but toying with the soap+water idea

I know where you're coming from - while oil is nice once and a while - and pretty much a must when your doing a BS - my personal preference is a nice light sensual touch. When I am doing oil, I provide my own massage oil, see below.

For the finish I have been providing my own water-based lubricant for years. It washes off quickly and easily, doesn't leave any residue. Ideal.

Sometimes I use powder - many times during a NR I have found the attendant doesn't like oil - I think that it is usually because they find that if they do a large number of NRs in a day, that the oil becomes too much on their skin. So I'll use powder on them, with a nice light sensual touch.

For those attendants who do like oil, I keep a bottle of KamaSutra Sweet Almond body massage oil in my bag. It's a much better formulation than regular oil, it's good for the skin, and it smell just like Amaretto. 95% of the attendants love it!

I've also found that many places "water" down their oil. Once, years ago, I was told by an attendant that the owner used Crisco cooking oil. Nothing wrong with that I guess, but I don't want it on MY skin. Still other use mineral oil, and some use baby oil. Since there's no way of determining exactly what is being used (besides looking and smelling it) I tend to shy away from oil.

The best oil to use is mineral oil. Whenever I use it, it washes nearly 100 percent off with soap. There are different kinds of mineral oil, so do your research to understand what each type is like.

I have to use an oil on massages that I both give and receive because I like them hard and skin on skin or with powder is painful. The secret to remember is you do not need a huge amount of oil, you need a small amount and you are supposed to spread it before you begin the massage. Most of the mpa's that I have given NR's to were reluctant with the oil but after experencing a quality massage, they saw the benefit of allowing clients that know how to give a good hard massage the right to use oil. Remember, always remind the girls not to use too much oil, especially those that like to drown mr happy.

Now a word of warning with regards to using soap and water for a HJ. Try it in your own shower at home first. It burns and it can be very painful. So my suggestion is, don't use soap and water for a HJ unless you like the pain afterwards.

In my limited experience (at least for a newbie who is floored (or is it tabled??) by the exper-tease on this board) the MPA has always responded positvely when I ask for oil only for the finish. Previously tried powder but, even with a shower, it's hard to get rid of the smell, especially when I have to return to work, somewhat poorer but much muCH MUCH more relaxed.

 

[Meems]

I don't want to sound too rude, but it's been working for the past 15 years

 

[funny girl]

Because you are used to it. But if you havent done it, its quite painful.

 

[tehpwnerer1918]

from an MPA perspective, I don't like oil on my skin either. However, if it's necessary, then I always keep a bottle of antibacterial soap on me (usually dial) and I find that works pretty well to get the oil off. What can also help is a light dusting of powder on the skin to absorb the oil before shower. When giving a foot massage, I always try to powder the feet and wipe with a towel, it gets most of the oil off and prevents slipping and falling on the slippery floor.

I have to admit that oil does give the best massage. In my opinion that is. You could always use lotion, too. Just a suggestion.

I prefer butter, it's better for the skin

hate oil...prefer the natural feel of their fingers.

I always ask for Quaker State 5W30, especially in the winter.

 

[socialgurl19]

As an MPA, i would like to state, that if your attendant is giving you a nice hard massage it KILLS the wrists if there is not some sort of lubrication between the hands and the body. If you want just the soft light tickle touch kind of massage it is fine. But if you want any sort of hard massage the attendant is going to need something or she can end up with carpal tunnel syndrome if she does "dry" massage to often.

Here's something an MPA in Toronto suggested to me - use shampoo to clean your body off, instead of soap. Soap, she says, can't cut through the oil, but shampoo is designed to deal with oily hair, so the oil on your body is a snap. It seems to work for me, but I still ask the MPA to keep the oil to a minimum.

I used to visit a couple of Asian MPs on (now both closed) that also had baby powder as an option. They didn't allow a shower after the service, so baby powder was a good option if you were going somewhere afterwards and not home for a shower to get the oil off.
