A few months ago I was watching one of my favorite Youtubers, Say Anything Br00ke, and she was reviewing soaps from Fortune Cookie Soaps. I decided I would give these a try as I thought they would be a nice "decoration" addition to my bathroom.
Here is what I got:
I absolutely HAD to get (or so told myself) the Fuit Loops one as Brooke raved about this one the most. I do love the smell of this one, just as Brooke mentioned, it smells exactly like when you hit the bottom of your Fuit Loops cereal box and you are left with all the broken/sugary pieces. The other two that I got are The Candy Addict(Pink) which is kind of cotton-candy/kind of just candy smelling and Caramel Apple which I do love the smell of: It's a very clean apple scent with a tiny hint of caramel. All these were under $4 each.
Now for the downside....dun dun dun.....they DO NOT lather. Well, they lather a tiny bit but you really have to work it for a few seconds before they start to lather. Another disappointing little aspect is that the scent (of neither one of these 3 soaps) doesn't linger on your hands after using them. If you put your hands close to your nose right after using the soaps, yes, you will smell the scent. But, to make it clearer, the scent of the BBW soaps ligers on your hands waaaayyy longer than if using these.
I also got the Wood Soap Dish (pictured above) as I thought it complete the "decore" look if you will.
Sidenote: What does it say about my "decoration" abilities that I bought Fortune Cookie shaped soaps for my bathroom in an attempt to make it a bit more interesting and less hospital-public-restroom looking?
Note to self: Do hire an interior decorator after winning lottery and buying dream house.
Back to soaps talk...As far as customer service, I do remeber getting these fairly quickly as well as getting an email from the company asking to leave reviews and sharing thoughts (which I didn't do).
I guess it's up to you! If you have better decoration ideas than I do, well...maybe opt for their body butters. They sent me a sample with purchase of their Dragon Fruit one and it smells delicious!

This weekend in a nutshell (w/ small haul)
Because we all need yet another body spray and lotion....and a few other things too :)
Started off my morning eating homemade pancakes (no clue why they came out so weird-looking), spread some nutella on them and had some coffee...mmmmhhhhhh.
My boyfriend and I hit some new shopping locations and I scored some very cute things that I will show you all below.
Pink (and a bit obnoxious) hoodie from H&M. I got this in a size 6, which is a bit bigger that I would normally, because I want it to be a comfy thing that I throw on when it's cold and I'm going to class at night.
Pink with black polka dots scarf: completely unnecessary but cute enough to add to the collection.. and less that $7!
I found this really cute shirt at Nordstrom Rack for $9.99. I really enjoy this time a year when everything with short sleeves is on sale but it's still hot enought (and will be hot for a while) where I will get a lot of use out of cute tops like this one.
I'm not even thinking about buying witer jackets or wool sweater yet. No, thanks.
Finally, I stopped by Bath & Body Works and picked up things in two of my favorite scents: Dark Kiss and Twilight Woods. I hadn't seen these shimmery body sparys before and thought... why not? I do have a lot of body sprays already but these...well these have shimmer in them ok? :p
I also picked up a Mentha-Lip treatment (not shown) in the cinnamint scent which surprisingly I enjoy very much.
I will leave you off with a picture of me, while shopping.
I'm wearing a Target dress (bought back in May), Steve Madden green wedges and G by Guess handbag. Oh I almost forgot my ultra expensive $8 sunglasses by Old Navy.
Hope your week starts off great. My fall semester starts this week so, not looking forward to it.
See you on the next post!
