FCS Soap Box Haul/First Impressions: Night Before Christmas

It's finally here!! My Nightmare Before Christmas soap box from Fortune Cookie Soap! And it was definitely worth the wait.



For anyone wondering, Fortune Cookie Soap offers a subscription box service for just $20. There are usually just four boxes a year, and they include 8-9 sample products from the collection that is about to be released. There is always a full size fortune cookie soap and sometimes other full size products (like the OCD hand sanitizer this time). Plus, they include a code for $10 on their website! So it's basically soooo worth it! Especially since all of their products are amazing!



EEEK! That bug did take me a bit by surprise, but it is so perfect for Oogie Boogie (OCD hand sanitizer)! The scent is described as "smushed winter berries against a backdrop of sweet muted cinnamon." I love this scent! It smells just so fruity with a hint of cinnamon.


This soap is so adorably Sally! It has such a clean scent; the cotton and breeze smell descriptions are so dead-on!

  
I love the design of this bath melt! And the smell is super piney with a spice note (cinnamon?). This smells exactly like a Christmas tree to me!



I am so excited to try their dry shampoo! This smells amazing too! It smells like Twisted Peppermint from Bath and Body Works in the bottle; I'm excited to see if the pumpkin becomes more prominent out of the bottle. I would definitely buy this scent in other products!


Such a perfect sculpt of Jack (bath fizzy)! The smell is unique and lovely; it smells earthy with berry mint notes, very uplifting!


Sandy Claws (exfoliating body butter) smells like a chocolate chip cookie to me. Very yummy!



I got Christmas Town for my whipped cream (there were 4 possibilities, Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter, and Halloween). I am dying to know what the others smell like, but Christmas Town smells amazing! It smells like relaxing incense with a hint of pine in the tub, but the pine is more prominent on the skin. Love!


The What's This roll on perfume is a secret scent for the mystery fragrance contest they are running. I am not sure what this scent is yet, but I will say that it is definitely a sweet scent. It is also one of my favorites in the box!

This box surprised me. I loved everything, even the scents that I normally wouldn't go for! They are just so great at coming up with unique and beautiful scents. I can't wait to place my order for some full size products on November 22 when these are finally released!

Happy bathing,

Jen the Peony Picker
