Fortune Cookie Soaps Haul/Review

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!

What da...???!!

I just finished typing a pretty lengthy post on Fortune Cookie Soaps and I went ahead and clicked Publish Post only to be greeted by an evil little message from blogger saying that there was an error blah blah blah blog post is gone.
This is what I will be doing for the next few minutes:

Outfit of a Couple Saturdays Ago

My boyfriend and I love to go to Little Tokyo in Downtown LA. It's so cute and relaxing..weird, uh? Oh and he loves to get mochi (for $1 each!) which I'm not a fan of. Anyway, this is what I wore on a pretty summer afternoon.

I am wearing a maxi dress by Forever21, skinny brown belt by Charelotte Russe, bangles by Forever21 (bought years ago) and my sandals were brown gladiators by shoedazzle bought last year.

I really do love the art on this wall.
