FCS Spring Soap Box-The Garden of Good and Evil

 The Fortune Cookie Soap seasonal box for spring's theme is The Garden of Good and Evil. The floral based scents are split into the "Good" and "Evil" for the 8 products.



















The Good






































Native Nectar is a smooth and creamy pearly white body wash that smells of fresh coconut, totally tropical and indulgent. I love the way this smells in the bottle and it makes me ready for warmer weather!


Afternoon Delight is an OCD,  FCS's hand sanitizer, that smells like fresh watermelon, apricot, and white florals that is a pretty light pink with glitter in it. The smell reminds me of childhood and the fresh watermelon Smackers that came in the green tube with pink writing. Its also the perfect size to throw in your purse or backpack. 

Marshmallow Dreams cuticle butter is a super nourishing moisturizer for those rough spots around your nails. Lavender with sage, basil, a splash of vodka and, of course, lots of sticky, sweet marshmallow. This melts right into my skin without a residue and I saw a difference after the first use. This is one of my favorite products from this box.


The Evils



Its not a secret how much I love FCS whipped cream. The light and fluffy consistency is always comfortable to wear on my skin and they always smell amazing. Make It Rain is citrus and jasmine entwined in musk and cedarwood. This light blue body butter smells like a garden after it rains-you can seriously smell the water droplets on the leaves!

  


































Forbidden Fruit is verbena, fresh blueberry, and lemon zest and let me tell ya, its faaaaabulous!!
Its fruity and zesty and reminds me of one of my favorite breakfast meals-blueberry pancakes with lemon juice and sugar. The picture doesn't do it justice though, Forbidden Fruit is a beautiful blue with bright neon yellow swirls. This is my other favorite item from the spring box.





































Me So Thorny is one of those tablets that you put on the floor of your shower and it makes your bathroom fill up with a fragrant steam of citrus, lavender, and french vanilla puddled in patchouli and sandalwood. I love using these steam tablets when I'm sick or when I want a little pampering without taking a bath.










This little cutie is a bath fizzy-you put it in your bath and it, well, fizzes and makes your water fragrant and moisturizing with oils. The Bloom Bloom is jasmine, lilac and lily of the valley with peach and citrus served on a bed of spun sugar.





































Venus Fly Trap perfume oil is a very living scent with bergamont, narcaisse and musk with water orchid, lemon, and pink jasmine. Its overwhelming green takes you first but if you give it some more time on your skin you'll find the lighter, fresher side of the perfume, totally appropriate for spring.
