Hello
my lovelies!
It’s
that time of the month again! … … … No, not that time, but rather… The Beauty and Fashion Blog Community (via Facebook) Blog Hop!!! This month’s theme is “Mother’s Day Gift
Ideas”.
Mother’s
Day is just around the corner and if you’re sitting there, scratching your
head, puzzled as to what to purchase your mommy dearest… well, look no further!
The AMAZING company, Fortune Cookie Soap, recently launched a “Mother’s Day Collection” that is sure to please even the most pickiest of moms.
Fortune
Cookie Soap started in a little apartment in California 6 years ago; and now,
not only do they have a cult following (literally) but they also have a
brick-and-mortar store in Jenks, OK. Although I have not yet personally tried
any of their Mother’s Day products, I have made numerous orders through their
website and subscribe to their quarterly “Soap Box”. I have received nothing
but superb customer service from this company and have thoroughly enjoyed every
single one of their products.
If
you’re looking for safe and unique bath + body products, you HAVE to check out
this company! And if you’re not sure… give their quarterly “Soap Box” a try. If
you’re not happy with the first box, you can always cancel. But, if you’re
anything like me, you will have a new bath / body addiction!
Onto
the Mother’s Day goodies….

Soooo, what exactly is a "Steam Me Up Scotty!" and how do you use it? Basically, it's a heavily scented fizzy designed for an aromatherapy type shower experience.
Directions: For maximum results take a hot, steamy shower. Simply unwrap & toss the shower fizzy on the floor to the back of your shower, out of the stream of water. You want it to slowly fizz during your shower, rather than quickly run down your drain. It's like your personal little aromatherapy room, the steamier the better!
$9.99
4 oz.

sparkling lime, orange blossom, sweet jasmine, muguet, rose petals and exotic
musk.

This delicious
fragrance will make you think you’re lying on the beach with a fruity drink
full of fresh coconuts and bananas!
Usage: Whip your skin into shape daily. Tests have shown only small amounts of vitamins can be absorbed by the skin at one time. Therefore, it is better to apply smaller amounts more frequently than larger concentrations occasionally. With this cream, my friends, less is definitely more.
Ingredients: Water, Isopropyl Myristate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Ceteareth 20, Caprylic/Capric Glycerides, Dimethicone, Stearyl Alcohol, Soybean Oil, Shea Butter, Sunflower Oil, Hydrolyzed Silk, Aloe Barbadensis, Benzophenone 4, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate, Fragrance, Color.

Sweet honeysuckle,
fresh apple and yang yang, topped with pink rose.
Designed to be used at the very end of your shower or bath, our Hydrate Me! conditioning body bar is fully loaded with luxurious oils, butters and addictive fragrances.
Directions: Under running water, rub the conditioning bar all over. Massage into skin. Do not wash off. After you step out of the shower, air dry and allow a few minutes for the butters to sink into the skin. Experience the softest skin you've ever felt after just one use.
Personally, I love using their "Hydrate Me" / massage bars on my skin, by itself. I don't need the water, my natural body heat melts the massage bar and it's the most luxurious moisturizer for your skin, ever!

zests of key lime, verbena leaf, green tea, white ginger, warmed by vanilla
bean and golden amber.
Simply crumble under running bath water for a tub full of luxuriously soft, highly scented bubbles; and they're not just talking bubbles, they talking BUBBLES. If you love loads of bubbles, by all means, throw in the whole thing, but 1/2 is more than enough. Each bar is an amazing 4-8 ounces of bubbly goodness and are enriched with Cocoa Butter, so they’re as good for the body as they are for the soul.
