Fortune Cookie Soap Box, Spring 2015

This month was inspired by Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland. The spring collection launches on February 27th, 6:30 PM CST.


Sorry to cut this short due to continuing renovations. 

A super cute sticker on the outside. It makes more sense once you see the inside.


Cute green crinkle paper, a detailed card and plently of small samples. All of these scents were quite strong with the exception of "Almost Alice". 



My favorite scent, which is not welcomed by all in the house, was "It's only a dream". The formula is nice, the scent is strong. A bath tea as include and likely not be used by us here. The incense was alright, but completely fits with an Alice in Wonderland feel. The bath bomb appears to have real roses and will be used as a treat for the toddler. The body wash is very strongly grapefruit scented, and again not really for me. The perfume oil smells intially like cake, then pineapple takes over. Also not my thing, but lovely. The OCD "We're all Mad Here" is nice, but when it's time to get more hand santizer I'll be picking a different scent.

Even though this box wasn't a big hit for me, I'd still recommend them. A box 4 times a year doesn't seem excessive, and I'm able to use most of the products so I do feel I get a reasonable return on my investment. It's a well curated box, and if you use products like these (or most of a box) and you can afford $120ish US a year, I'd sign up. If you can control your inner spenderella, you can even use the $10 coupon code sent with each box. I used mine to pick up a Game of Thrones Lotion. And that was it. A well behaved splurge.
