WITCH PLEASE FCS FALL BOX

ITS FORTUNE COOKIE TIME,
my fall box has landed in the UK, the theme this season is witch please,
to fit in with the wizard of oz theme .
find the soap boxes here http://www.fortunecookiesoap.com/pages/the-soap-box.
these boxes come out 4 times a year, and are great sample boxes for you to sniff and use before you go ahead and order the whole collection,
they ship international so everyone can join in.



my box thank you for the note Shannon, it made the post man laugh,

my fall box,


the un boxing.



the fab menu card.



THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME ,FCS SOAP.
wow this really smells once you open the box.clove and cinnamon,
so this is curled apple peels kissed with cinnamon,all spice,clove,
make this fragrance war and cosy ,just like home =as long as homes not Kansas, 

well this is gorgeous ,will be getting this in body wash,sugar scrub,body mist, even a bath oil wouldn't go a miss please Justin and Shannon.



ROY G BIV OCD HAND SANITIZER.
bright citrus notes,floral's against a cool fall background.
dusky breezes and bonfires.wind swept leaves,with lemon ,mandarin,cotton blossom,and vanilla.

this is fresh with a hint of fruit , a good scent , hope this goes into personal space otherwise i will be using a body mist instead.i would quite like this in a wax tart scent as well.not to floral but with a slight orange lemon tone to it.
this was strong as first application but soon settled down nicely.




I GOT THE ONE I WANTED  YAY ME.

GREEN IS THE NEW BLACK WHIPPED CREAM,
because orange is  would of been obvious .sweet pumpkin and cinnamon and ginger with brown sugar topped with fresh cream.

someone needs to make this as an ice-cream in the UK.they really do.spicy pumpkin and toasted burnt brown brulee'd sugar with the cinnamon and ginger seeping out, oh my,




SWANKIFIED WALNUT FACIAL SCRUB.
the new daily scrub to the collection,ripe banana and sweet cake batter.topped with walnuts. not harsh or scrubby at all, quite a creamy soft scrub oozing with bananas,



MISS POPULAR BUBBLE BATH POWDER,
as bubbly and sickly sweet as they come,sweet honey,star anise, jasmine,sweet orange,and blushing violet. 

no just no, i can't get on with this the honey is too much for me ,this is a no go for me. too much honey not enough spice and fruit to cut through the honey for my liking.



HAIR FLIP HAIR OIL,
another new product , this hair oil,great for dry and damaged hair ,hazelnut and rich butter cream, 
rather sweet but it felt great on my hair ,



FLYING MONKEYS PERSONAL SPACE AIR FRESHENER.
mischief in the air.with this fruity blend of peach,watermelon,neroli,jasmine,ripe bananas.

i really like this scent peaches and watermelon come through.as it settles banana and jasmine come out. gentle and very refreshing.




THE SHIZ  PERFUME OIL.
normally you don't want to smell of whizz but in this case its a good thing.
damp balsam woods,maple leaves,blossoms,laurel,sweet clove.

oohh spicy oh that smells so good, now to find a man to try it out on and sniff.woody and gutsy,and spicy love this ALOT,and a bath oil or body wash wouldn't go amiss on this scent either.



so after seeing the reviews and playing with the products there are some must haves for sure and some i won't be going near. i think this collection needs to bring back the bath oils,i now what i will be ordering and in what products as well,

my fortune cookie soap haul via uk group order.

so the spring soap boxes got sent out, they arrived and we sniffed and sampled away.the thing is these boxes also mean a UK group order is looming.
we wait till Shannon and the guys at fortune cookie have got over the release of the products and have got themselves together and restocked and we all send out lists either to Becky or Natalie depending whose turn it is to collate and organise.usually between 15-20 peoples orders not an easy job so we love them for it.being part of the group order is great as it means the shipping is cut as we all have it split fairly between us all, then split the customs , then we only pay for the girls to ship to our homes how we want.
YOU CAN FIND THE SPRING RANGE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL HERE.
