Fortune Cookie Soap now has a monthly subscription box in addition to their quarterly box! The FCS of the Month Club features full sized products including past scents making a revival, current releases, and at least one brand new product for us to be guinea pigs with! I love FCS’s products (and just placed an order for their Beauty and the Beast collection featured in the Spring 2017 box) and I am so excited to see what they have chosen! The box is $28 a month and shipping is calculated at check out based on your location.
Each month the FCS theme is revealed for next month, and you have the option to skip it if the theme isn’t your cup of tea.
The packaging for this box was redone to match coherently – the original collections are linked and the labels may look different.
Mother of Dragons Whipped Cream ($12.99) From the Winter Has Come collection, this is their famous whipped body butter. I love it so much, it really is the most hydrating body butter I’ve tried that doesn’t grease me up. This is an almond milk base with French vanilla and soft florals. It’s subtle and layered well with my perfume.
Bloom Bloom Room Body Frosting ($16.99) From the Garden of Good and Evil collection (originally released Spring 2014), the body frosting has a slight shimmer to it – nothing sparklebomb, but a nice soft glow. I like it. I wasn’t crazy about the scent at first sniff – it’s got jasmine, lilac, and lily of the valley. I love jasmine but I don’t like lilacs. But it smells better once it’s settled into my skin – it also has citrus and sugarcane in it which comes out more. This is a new FCS product, and monthly subbers are the first ones to get to try it!
Afternoon Delight Perfume Oil ($7.99) From the Garden of Good and Evil collection as well, if you’ve ever wanted to smell like watermelon Jolly Rancher… you’ll like this. It’s not an offensive scent but it’s not as complex as other FCS perfumes I’ve tried.
Second Star to the Right Hydrate Me ($10.99) This is from the Straight On Until Morning Summer 2015 collection, themed around Peter Pan. This scent is crushed berries and mint leaves. Hydrate Me is a skin conditioner you use in the shower. It’s like a stick of deodorant that is made of oils that soften your skin.
Wendy Bird Deodorant ($12.99) This is another product I ordered last week that I’m happy to try in another scent. Also from the Straight On Until Morning collection, Wendy Bird is bright green apple with a tropical twist. This is a deodorant and not an antiperspirant – it will not stop you from sweating, but will eliminate odor. I think this is a good product for winter, but for me, I need something a bit more clinically proven for the hot summer months. It smells refreshing and clean.
Rum Butter Body Wash ($10.99) Now one of FCS’s signature scents, this cheeky nod to Harry Potter’s butterbeer smells amazing. Butterscotch rum, warm vanilla, and deeply hydrating, I loved this body wash. I ordered a different scent in my recent FCS order so I am happy to be able to try the product in another scent while I wait!
Lion’s Breath Whipped Soap ($12.99) Last December I got to review the Through the Wardrobe collection, which featured scents themed around the Chronicles of Narnia. I received this scent in a perfume, which I actually have been wearing lately! It’s described as winter’s frost with fir needles and juicy pomegranates. It’s a wintery scent that is quite subtle. I enjoy the whipped soap product and this will be at home in my shower.
The first monthly FCS box had an incredible value of $72.94! That is amazing. I can see this box appealing to a lot of people: people who are looking for a great introduction to FCS, people who are looking for a great value and aren’t picky about scents, and long-time FCS fans who would love a chance to try some retired scents that aren’t easy to obtain on the website anymore. I thoroughly enjoyed this unboxing and if asked to choose between the monthly box and the quarterly box, I couldn’t pick! They both have their own strengths and audiences and for me, I love both. I could see myself possibly getting this box every other month, depending on how long it takes me to use up everything in this one!
