Pinch Me Therapy Dough - Holistic Aromatherapy Stress Relieving Putty - 10 Ounce (Beach)

I’m a therapist, and pinch me dough is the only sensory dough I recommend to my kiddos! The texture is smooth, and never grainy or greasy. I’ve used containers for more than 9 months before, without it losing any of that divine smell, which is such an added perk. Highly recommend!!

I really enjoy this therapy dough! I leave it sitting at my desk for quick access. I also really like to play with the dough while I am just relaxing and watching TV. As a person that has ADHD, using the dough while watching television helps me to actually be able to retain my attention while sitting still. I wish it lasted longer. I was able to get about 8 hours out of 3 oz of dough before it became really tough because I had used it so much and a lot of the moisture had went away. It still smells really nice though and I use it if I am preferring to use a stronger grip. I just really love the soft texture of this dough, it is addicting. I am not sure if I will ever be able to not have some.

This smells amazing!!! And is stress relieving. I also use it for physical therapy for my hands.

I've bought several of these and I love them so much. I use them while I'm at work if I get stressed or am struggling to focus. I would recommend this to struggling teens as well. It helps to focus, something for your hands to do, and the smell is relaxing. They do dry out fairly quickly if you use them all the time like I do, but I still think they are worth the money. They help me tremendously. I am not a fan of the ocean scent in particular. The scents are strong, but I like. My favorite scent so far is the green one and the purple brumbleberry one.

Needed something to do with my hands during therapy but would also get REALLY nervous right before a session started due to the topics I we would eventually cover. The SCENT is whats addictive. I got spa and my body would now associate this smell with therapy. I would open the jar and my anxiety would go from a raging dissociative10 to a level 2. The only con is that after you play with this for I want to say about 4 months it just doesnt really have the scent anymore. So I went to their website and specifically bought the mist me spray in spa and decided to try some others as well. -Spa is really good but I have associated it with therapy and even with that high praise its admittedly now my 2nd favorite. - BLISS is the absolute best. My number 1! I wish the scents lasted longer on my skin because I want this one to be my calming perfume. (pinch me brand please make this happen) -Ocean is meh. It smells good but in a laundry detergent/ febreeze kind of way. -Sun is yummy. For whatever reason it kind of just reminds me of nonastalgic candy. -Bonfire actually exceeded my expectations and I love it. Its very smoky. -Surf is also meh for me. This one has really good reviews and I can see why. Its very 2000 beach mall scent vibes from bath and body work/ or abercrombie. I think I was expecting more natual smell. I hope this helps you pick out your scent. Overall anything that calms my anxiety is 100% beyond worth it. So I do highly recommend this product!

I used to love this product but my recent order both containers looked years old. Wrong consistency, color, and smell. It’s not the same product it used to be (or maybe it is literally the same and it’s been sitting there for years). Not worth it. The real product is awesome—go to their website instead! :)

I was only able to purchase this because the Spa scented one is HSA eligible. Otherwise I would have never spent so much money on glorified playdoh. The idea behind it is great! The scent is very strong and soothing, and the texture is so soft and squishable! I really loved the smell, breathing it in whenever I'd open the jar and every once in a while during playing with it. I also really loved the feel of playing with this, squishing the soft dough between my fingers whenever I was stressed or anxious, and it did seem to help calm me a bit. I've had this for a few weeks now and it is starting to dry out slowly, which makes me sad, and the scent isnt as strong as it was at first, though still very much there. So there's that, not sure how long it is intended to last. It is a much softer texture than playdoh, which I appreciated, and the scent is strong but not overpowering, which I also appreciated, but ultimately it really is just glorified playdoh for $30! The biggest issue/complaint I have with this is the scent names and the price. Initially I thought all of the scents were HSA eligible, so I was looking through all the options and there were some scents that had names, but no description of what the scent smelled like. Specifically Sun, Zen, and Retro. Trying to figure out what "Retro" even smells like and all the description you get is "Allow RETRO to take you on a stroll down memory lane. This delightful childhood fruity blend is sure to rekindle wonderful memories that transport you back in time." ....its like "okay, but what does it smell like?!" I still don't know!!! I even tried to search Google and YouTube videos trying to see if someone out there tried it and could explain the scent of "Retro" to me and so far no one has!! I seriously spent several hours being stressed and frustrated trying to figure out these scents and feeling like this was the most stressful therapy doh ever because of that alone!! Ultimately I found out that Spa is the only scent HSA eligible, so that helped me make a decision though. If anyone ever finds our what "Retro" actually smells like, please let me know. My suggestions for this company: 1. Provide descriptions of the scents so it's clear what it smells like. 2. If you really want to provide stress relief with your therapy doh, lower the price to something affordable. (Or maybe make all scents HSA eligible?) It's stressful just looking at the price! 3. Come up with some therapy doh toys. Like how playdoh has play sets, dough cutters, etc. Because as great as this is to play with in your hands, all you can really do is make shapes and squish it. Commit and really take stressed people back to their childhood by allowing them to play pretend again by providing toys/tools to genuinely play with their therapy doh. Need an idea person in the company? I've got some great ideas! 💡 lol Anyway, great product, but has some stressors to it that could be fixed to make it better. Honestly, I wouldn't have paid this much for dough without the HSA bit.

I really like the dough. I've ordered many different scents as it's difficult to know which ones I will like. Some seem to change a little after playing with them for a month. Some are very "cologne" smelling to me and I prefer a lighter scent. I wish like crazy they offered a small sample kit to smell each one and know which ones to order in the larger jars. I got one of the keychains, that would be a good sample size, but not enough to keep my hands busy when I'm having anxiety. It is a good quality dough. One i ordered was a little sticky for me (Bumbleberry) and a couple of them left residue on my hands the first few uses. But after a few uses, the residue part goes away.

pleasant sensory soft squishy texture with a nice colour. But the smell is on the strong side, & it leaves a greasy residue & dough particles on surfaces
