So on that note, I know I'm late with this post and most (if not all) of the Fortune Cookie Soap Valentine's Day products will have disappeared by the time you read this, I still wanted to show them some love! I also was fortunate enough to win a contest to sample some of the possible spring products being released on March 16th, so of course I have to share those too! Enjoy!
Here's everything I received in my package!
First up for the Valentine's products I purchased was the 'Luv U Long Time' Massage Oil. Made with chocolate flavouring, this is supposedly 'lickable', and although I didn't put any in my mouth or use it on another person, it does smell good enough to eat. Sweet and subtle chocolate fragrance, not at all overpowering and made my legs softer than I've ever felt them after shaving.
The Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Moose Whipped Cream also had that lovely true chocolate scent with just a splash of candied strawberry scent underneath. Amazingly moisturizing, as all the Whipped Creams are and lasted a long time on my skin.
Lastly from this photo: Hand Job OCD Hand Sanitizer. All I have to say is LOL!! Leave it to these guys and gals to come out with something cheeky and a tad naughty for the most lovey dovey day of the year. Love it! Smells just like the Whipped Cream and is brown with tiny red beads that feel nice when you rub your hands together. Surprisingly moisturizing, I haven't used any other hand sanitizers since trying their OCD line.
The Sexual Chocolate Lip Balm is heeeavenly. Smells delicious, feels delicious, makes your lips look delicious and I'm pretty sure I even taste a little bit of sweet deliciousness.
I also picked up the Love is in the (Hair) Shampoo Bar. While this hasn't made it into my shower yet (still working on my FCS Hawaiian Ice Shampoo Bar!), it smells great and is very detailed and interesting to see. Scented with rose and sandalwood, I'm not a big rose fan so I was hoping for more sandalwood but the rose definitely won this over and makes a unique and very feminine combination. Can't wait to see how the dried rose petals turn out being rubbed into my hair!
The Boom Boom Bubble Bar is BY FAR my favourite of all the Valentine's products they came out with this year. Described as rose, sandalwood and vanilla, this smells warm, sweet, smooth and sensual. Strange description, I know, but it's hard to put into words how amazing this is. The vanilla stands out most to me, followed by faint sandalwood and not really much of a rose scent. This is my first Bubble Bar and it was actually bigger than I expected! I used 1/3 of the bar and my tub was FILLED with bubbles. And can we just stop for a moment to notice how adorable the little embedded red heart is? This needs to be a permanent product!
The Lick Me All Over Bar Soap was my Moms choosing, so unfortunetly I don't get to use it, but it's a pretty lemony-yellow shade filled with rainbow glitter and smells fresh, citrusy and floral. This would be a great pick-me-up in the morning or when you need a bit of zest in your shower.
The full size Whipped Creams themselves are not new, but they have just come out with Whipped Cream Sampler Packs! For less than the price of 1 full size, you can choose 4 different scents to try in adorable 1oz, travel friendly containers. We actually bought 2 sets (8 containers total) but the photo only shows 1 set because the scents are mostly the same. Such an amazing value and since a little goes a long way, you get to try a whole bunch without committing but still have a ton of product to last you quite a while.
Just want to say a HUGE thank you to Shannon for these amazing surprises! If you've ever been here before or chatted with me on Facebook or Twitter, you'll have heard a bazillion times that Sweet Tart Martini is my must have, holy grail scent. Until now I have been savouring and rationing 2 little fortune cookies in this scent and when this popped out, I jumped out of my skin! It's that unbelievable! Same sweet, refreshingly clean scent but in a super moisturizing, super long lasting body butter. This is supposed to be coming out with the Spring product launch on March 16th (and possibly other products in this scent?) and let me tell you, I'm certain these will go FAST. I cannot wait to stock up for spring and summer!
The Fall'n Leaves was originally in Bar Soap form only and was discontinued to make room for newer products, but being my Moms favourite, I passed along the message that I was being bombarded with questions as to when it would ever come back. My Mom just recently had surgery and has had a tough recovery so to receive something so thoughtful is such a testament to how truly amazing and down to earth this company really is, and she was absolutely overjoyed. Where else can you find customer service like that?
Mystery Fragrance Whipped Creams! The first one (on the left) is sweet, fruity and girly but a little birdie told me it will probably be getting the axe because it bears a striking resemblance to a fragrance currently sold by a large, well known bath and body company. Although saddening because I really enjoy it, kudos to FCS for sticking to their uniqueness and continuing to strive for scents and products that will set them apart.
The second mystery fragrance (on the right) is a pretty pale green colour which I find fitting because the scent is very fresh, airy and filled with light florals. It's really feminine and refreshing, sort of like strolling through a botanical garden under spring sunshine.
As always, each order comes with a free sample and this time I received a Hubba Hubba Bath Melt! I've tried the melts and they are super hydrating without being oily, you can even feel the moisture just rolling this between your fingers.. and this smells like bubblegum straight out of the wrapper, I'm thinking I need a whole bag of these little wonders. :)
Last, but definitely not least.. SPRING SAMPLER PRODUCTS!!
- First thing in the bag was a Personal Space Air Freshener labelled 'Personal Space Fragrance #5'. At first I wasn't sure I liked this, it didn't catch me as a flowery-spring scent I was expecting. However, it has since grown on me significantly. It's a woodsy, outdoors scent with notes of greenery and pine. Sounds more autumn appropriate when you hear that, but close your eyes and think of melting snow, cool air just starting to warm and flowers & trees just starting to turn green and sprout buds. It's a very unique scent that I think will pleasantly surprise many people.
- Second in the package was a hefty little baggie filled with pretty purplish-pink bath salts labelled 'Bath Crystals Fragrance #4'. This is exactly the scent I crave for when the weather starts to warm. It's very girly; a fresh bouquet of spring flowers sprinkled with sugary-sweet candy. The scent is quite strong and I know it'll be one to last on the skin long after the bath. I'm especially curious as to what this one would be named!
- Lastly was an OCD Hand Sanitizer labelled 'Sanitizer Fragrance #3'. This was a dead giveaway the first time I tried it! Sweet, zesty, tart-but-not-too-tart freshly-squeezed lemon! Very bright and quite literally the perfect lemon scent to please those who like it sweet and also those who like it a bit sour.
