You may have noticed that there was no Sample Sunday last week. That's because I was laying back on the beach for the weekend before the hurricane comes by and ruins everything! But even there I was still testing out products, FCS's Body Wash in Vampire's Blood to mention one of them.
If you recall, I received this in the Halloween Soap Box this month, and since it was sample size, I figured it was the perfect size to travel with.
Vampire's Blood is actually translucent black in color, which is kind of cool. I smells like black cherry in the bottle, but on my skin it also had a hint of the traditional soapy smell along with the cherry, which I found very pleasant.
The biggest thing for me was that it didn't dry out or bother my skin. My skin is very sensitive to me changing body washes and there have been many times when a new soap has made me break out it in itchy rashes all over the place. This was not an issue at all with Vampire's Blood. I was even more please that it didn't leave my skin feeling stripped or tight from loss of moisture.
Would I be interested in purchasing a full size, based on this sample? Sure!
I'm pretty happy with my current Dove body wash, but if for some reason I wanted to change it up I wouldn't mind doing that with Vampire's Blood, or any of FCS's other body washes, for that matter.
You can find more information on this body wash at the FCS website. Full size retails for $10.99.
Sooooo....I'm still playing catch up with my posts as you can see. I got my AWESOME FCS Halloween Soap Box a long while ago but am just now getting a chance to share. Opening this box feels like I must've already gone trick-or-treating! So many fun little treats here!
Is Autumn in the air, or what? Y'all know I love my summer like an old friend but I have to say I tend to be happier in the fall. The humidity's gone and there's nothing but pumpkin flavored yummy treats all around. What's not to love? And just to add to the awesomeness, Fortune Cookie Soap puts out their spins on the season with Autumn-themed soaps, lotions, and other bath and body products to drive our senses crazy. As a fan of the FCS company, I finally decided to get in on their Soap Box subscription box and the Fall Box just popped up into the mail this week. Check it out!
My hair sucks...I'm just gonna put that out there now. It's dry, damaged, and to make matters worse I'm the worst at hairstyling so my hair is always in either a bun, ponytail, or just down with no style whatsoever. So my primary focus right now is to just get it healthy. While usually the new products I try to use on my hair turn out to be epic fails, this Fortune Cookie Soap Shampoo Bar in Hawaiian Ice thankfully didn't turn out to be one of them. Having never used a similar product before, I had a very pleasant experience with it, not to mention my hair smelled AH-mazinggggg! Read on for more info and pics :)
Have you ever got a whiff of your breakfast and thought, "I wish I could smell like this all day"? No? Ok...maybe I'm the only one, but maybe you should consider it. Especially since Fortune Cookie Soaps has a vast amount of bath and body products that smell like not only Fruit Loops and blueberry pancakes, but also things like cupcakes, fruit punch, strawberries, and, uh, unicorn farts (yea, I don't know either lol). The smells aren't even the best part though: these products are amazing for your skin. They're homemade and are what the company calls "gunk-free", with no parabens, animal testing, or synthetic preservatives! I lucked out and my mother got me a bunch of their products for Christmas so today, I'm going to talk about the FCS Whipped Cream Body Butters that I was most excited about getting!
