Fortune Cookie Soap! Halloween!

 

Over the past year or so I’ve bought a few items from Fortune Cookie Soap, and I have loved all of what I’ve received! In case you’ve not heard of the company yet, Fortune Cookie Soap is on a mission to “provide safe unique bath & body products to the world”. They forgot to add how completely fun and adorable their products are, too!

Last week, the Halloween box came in the mail. I waited and waited to open it because I’d planned on doing a YouTube video about it. Unfortunately, I still have tons of U-Haul and FedEx boxes all over the place, with half-filled plastic tubs serving as sorting bins. (Yeah, the results of my California-Clean-Out-The-Storage trip. More on that later!) I got tired of waiting to dive into the box, so I said heck with it. And here’s the post!

Sephora PLAY! – Box #14 (October 2016)

Sephora PLAY! is now available all over the United States! The “title” of this month’s box is: The Cool Cut. There is a fold-out with a bit about each item on it, and the Play!Pass. The Pass entitles us to one-on-one advice from someone at Sephora (which I think just comes with walking in the door, really), and if you scan the Pass when you are shopping, you are awarded a bonus 50 Beauty Insider points.

Glossybox For October!

After hearing so many good things about Glossybox, I finally broke down and got a three month subscription to see if it lives up to its hype. (The deal advertised on Everything And Nothin’ helped in my decision, too! Hey, buy one and get two boxes free? Sure!)

What came in October?:

August’s Ipsy Haul!

This month’s Ipsy theme is Sugar Highness. Anyone who’s known me for a few years can probably guess what came to mind when I saw that theme:

 

I was a bit amused to find a couple of my old photos in this mix this morning, too. The 6th one at 0:26 looks identical to one I took of Casper with Coyote in the background, but unfortunately all my photos and things are still in California! (No clue how it wound up with a Viewimages watermark on it…) ANYWAY –

There were two different bag illustrations this month -lucky me, I got the one I wanted! It’s a nice size, with light pink lining inside; I can see myself using this one. And now, for what came inside…  Continue reading “August’s Ipsy Haul!”

My first Glossybox was July:
