Fortune Coockie Soaps Fall Soap Box Review.

Autumn is by far my favorite season. Some of the leaves have already started to change here in the Berkshire's and I've been pulling out the grandpa sweaters.  A lot of my love for fall has to to with the smells though, that's why I'm supper exited to try out all the products from the Fortune Cookie Soap's Fall Soap Box.

Fortune Cookie Soaps Summer Soap Box

We have all seen the sample subscription services like Birch box and such where you sample different products from different company's. Well Fortune Cookie Soap's has come out with one. It comes out four times a year one for each season with 8 samples of the seasons new products and scents. The cost is $19.99 every 3 months. Also included with the box is a $10 coupon code  towards a FCS purchase. So if you think about it the cost of the box ends up being ten dollars because of the coupon code.

Why I like This?
I have tried Fortune Cookie Soaps products before and liked them, but when there are so many different types of products and scents which can be hard to tell if you like a sent when shopping online. Not to mention pricy when you want to try one of this and one of that of the full products. This gives you a chance to try new products and see if you like a sent before you buy the full product.

Lemon Zing Fortune Cookie soap ($2.75)

I really like this product. It is shaped like a fortune cookie and even has a message in it. The smell of it is Just like a lemon drop candy, which lemon is my favorite smell. I have been using this soap in the shower and it leaves my skin so soft and gives that clean feeling without the tight feeling which I feel most bar soaps always leave me with. The soap is even gentle enough to use on the face without drying me out or leaving that tight feeling.

Dragon fruit Shaved Ice Bath Bomb 8oz ($6.99)

This looks exactly like a snow cone and smells like one too! You can get about 3 uses out of one bomb, but I did find it hard to break it up. I had to almost chisel it with a butter knife. I really like this product. I enjoy bath soaking products and this was a great on. It left my shin feeling soft and smelling good.

Juicy watermelon Lip Tint .07oz ($4.25)

This product goes on so smooth and leaves lips really soft. The smell is a strong artificial watermelon smell reminding me of watermelon candy. The lip tint doesn’t have any tint to it in my opinion; it doesn’t add any color to the lips. I don’t feel that for the $4.25 price for .07oz and the fact that it has no tint it’s worth it. However if it were twice the size which is the size of a regular chopstick it would be worth the price.

Cupcake Bar soap ($6.95)

This is an adorable soap, looking just like a cup cake. The smell of it is just like a baked strawberry cake. This would be one of those soaps that is too cute to use, and would be a great decorative bathroom soap. I have yet to use it just because I like how it looks too much.

Carrot Cake bath Melt 3 for ($11.25)

The carrot cake bath melts smell just like spiced carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. You put them in the bath tub and soak. They leave your skin really moisturized and would be great someone with dry skin.

Over all I really like the products from Fortune Cookie Soaps. The fact they only use safe ingredient is an awesome plus. They smell amazing and leave my skin feeling good. My only real problem was the packaging, or the lack there of. Some of the products came packaged in plastic zip lock baggies. I received the bath melts in a broken and crumbled state. Even though the website had a disclaimer saying that the bath melts may arrive either broken crumbled or melted, I think that even if it were packaged in the plastic baggie it could have been tightly wrapped inn the baggie to prevent the breakage.  I also think that a fragile this side up sticker when it was shipped would have prevented the cupcake soap from looking so banged up.
