The Manor Hall Soap company 'Box full of goodies' Review.







I had a really, really crappy day yesterday (I seem to be having a lot of those lately) and then I received a beautiful generous fall sampler package from My favorite soap company, The manor hall soap company, and life seemed a lot better all of a sudden, Lol. See the thing is I am greedy for all things beauty and that a box full of fragrant soaps from my fave soapmeker is like a bottle of Tylenol for me, it is an absolute pain killer. And this box was soaps and much, much more. A bathaholic's dream come true indeed.

They had included full size ( 4.5 oz) bars of 'Almost sunset', Choccy Orange Kerfuffle', 'Spearmint Grapefruit' and 'Hardy Har Harvest' soap. Facial cleansing grains in Almonds & Honey (4 oz jar - net wt 2.5 oz), Natural Face Mask - Yogurt & Green Clay 4 oz jar (net wt 2 oz),Natural Complexion Bar Carrot & Fennel Seed - 3.5 oz, a Exfoliating Soap Pouch which can be bought in their web store for $4.35 and a beautiful, adorable and very handy Complexion Brush which is also available on their website under accessories for $3.85 each.


The first thing I grabbed from the box was the facial skin care products, I have heard so many good things about the company's facial grains and natural mask that I was dying to use them. I used them according the directions given on the jar and bottle.


Almonds & Honey facial grains:

The Almonds & Honey is Suitable for all skin types, You have to mix it with a little water on your palm and rub gently all over your face, it turnd out to be a pretty scrubby exfoliater and I really enjoyed using it. Personally I would use it once a week as a scrub and once a week as a mask, as I have sensitive skin. The after glow was amazing! The combination of oatmeal, botanical and honey powder seemed to work their magic right away
Great thing about this scrub? it does a double duty of a fresh mask for that at home facial. According to the website Spring water, or green tea can be used. A little honey in warm water is extra softening. Milk, yogurt, and even mashed strawberries with cream are just a few ideas to get you started. Also pureed cucumber is recommended for summer! doesn't that sound heavenly?


Yogurt and green clay mask:

Following the scrub I used the Yogurt and green clay mask. This mask is to be used as a paste but it comes in powder form, you have mix a teaspoon with water to make it applicable. I believe strongly in the cleansing and cooling qualities of clay, this mask is made with yogurt and green clay,
It helps to tighten fine lines and wrinkles, also working to refine pores. Lactic acid loosens the dead cells on the surface of the skin, helping to moisturize. French Green clay, rich in plant minerals, stimulates the circulation, bringing new blood to damaged cells. It revitalizes the complexion, cleansing and tightening pores. I used it and loved it! it left my face tight, radiant and soft! A really important ritual before a big night out.

Carrot and feenel complexion soap:

I used the carrot and fennel seed bar at night, I must it it sounds healthy doesn't it? the Fennel seed is soothing to mild irritation, and when finely ground, it cleanses gently, removing impurities to offer balance and tone and carrot is well, the healthiest thing around for every thing right? The carrot juice in it is used to help with tissue repair, cell regeneration, fine lines, and aging. I used it and I was expecting my face to feel very soft and soothed after first use, I found it luxurious and comforting and nourishing on my skin, I will be using this in the harsh winter and heating of NY. This bar surpasses my expectations. but I should not be surprised as a lot of people use their soap bars for body on their faces, because they leave their skin feeling so nourished and natural.

SOAPS:

Choccy Orange Kerfuffle: This soap as the name suggest is made with with real cocoa bean powder, and spilling with sweet orange essential oil. We all crave chocolate in colder days and this the perfect soap to satisfy your urge without the calories. This soap is a must have and top of my list to buy as gifts for friends who cannot eat chocolate around Christmas time instead of a box of chocolates. It will be a perfect substitute.

Almost sunset: Sunsets are the favorite time of the day for me, I Love the way the sky bursts in a splash of colors when the two time meet. This time reminds of so many wonderful timies I have spent near the beach in my home town which I now rarely ever visit. This soap takes me back home and for me nothing can be more meaning full than that. Like all their other natural soaps this soap is also rich on creamy lather and very balanced with the fragrance blend. A beautiful blend of patchouli, ylang and lemongrass the trick in making this soap a beautiful bar of goodness.

Spearmint Grapefruit:
This soap is truly a masterpiece, I can smell it the most even all wrapped up. It is as fresh as a crisp cool winter rain and totally wakes up your senses in the shower. I used it in the morning and I was delighted to say the least with the effect I had after showering with this. You just have to use it once to become addicted. Also it would be a great bathing relief for people who suffer from acute or mild migraines like me.


Hardy Har Harvest:
I have not been able to actually use this soap in the shower but I have kept it for DH to use when he will be home I KNOW he will love it, it is such a wonderfully scented soap. SO took the liberty of taking the description straight from the site.
This deeply scented smoky soap bar is swirled with skin renewing black walnut powder, and was made to help you take on those harsh winter days.
It is infused with macadamia nut oil, a great skin toner and softener. Scented with a warming blend of essential oils including bay rum, its smell is reminiscent of sitting in front of a toasty winter fire.

Can-do-candles Tart review




I ordered a ton of tarts from Can-do-candles last weekend when she had a 20% off sale. Right now I am really on tart trip, making buying and of course eating too. I bought around 17 of them and received around four more FREE!. Plus I really liked Donna's customer service and her speed of delivery.
The scents I ordered were all foody, in honor of colder weather ahead.These are all reviews based on cold sniff as I am going to wait for Fall to use these scents. I am still sweating here and using up my warm weather tarts and candles.

Birdy's Baklava: A very nice scent of a little bit of puff pastry and leads of honey and syrup.( I bought two of these).

Tootsie Roll: exactly like the candy.

Aunt Becky's banana pudding: Very similar to banana cream pudding scent but stronger than other etailer tarts I have tried. nice smooth banana scent.

Cinnamon Latte: OMG perfect coffee scent with the sweetness of cinnamon. this would a real fun scent to burn in the cooler mornings. this is better than the Yankee cafe o lait straight strong coffee scent as this has a sugary hint which I love.

Applesauce cake: Lots of spice and very slight hint of apple, no cake scent on cold sniff, hope to get some foody notes once I burn it, which would have to be a very , freezing cold day, too strong for mild weather.

Twinkies: Hmmm very sweet cake, just like the one sin our grocery isles. I am glad I ordered this.

Lemon Bars: tangy, festive lemons mixed baked vanilla batter. Perfect!

Pumpkin Bread pudding: Lots of pumpkin and lots of fresh baked bread scent almost no pudding scent on cold sniff, but that is mostly such a mild note to even detect. nice pleasant scent.

Cream puffs: nice sweet scent.

Fairy garden: now this is scent for a garden party indeed! very floral and pretty.
Fruit loops: burn this and have some cold milk along side as this is exactly like the cereal, just smells much better and stronger

Pink sugar cookies: If you like pink sugar you would fall instantly in love with this, I know I did.

Aunt Carol's crumb cake: nice foody scent

Pity pats pound cake: I wish I had ordered more of this heavenly cake scent.
Spice coffee cake: Very nice mix of coffe and cake. Exactly what I wanted
Lessie's Haunted house: A very nice and surprising scent. just like Halloween itself!

These are the four free tarts I got:

Cherry chip cake: I am so glad she included this, I would have never ordered this myself as I thought it would be a plasticky cherries scent but instead I was surprised to smell a scent mixed with juicy cherries and fresh cake. very nice tart, my new fave.

Starbucks: Wow! straight up strong coffee, for those mornings after a hardy party night.
Bread puddin: spicy! exactly like the original. gift this someone for thanksgiving day or burn it on your thanksgiving dinner table for perfect ambiance.

secret recipe: Uhhh it smells like zucchini, in the nicest way possible! burn it when you want to fool people in to thinking you are cooking!

All in all a very nice order from a very nice lady. I am very happy with the whole experience.

Jo Malone Lime Basil & Mandarin Conditioner



I ordered a Lime Basil and and Mandarin conditioner in honor of end of summer days. I love summer and always have summer blues starting the end of August, so I end up ordering more and more summer scents to keep myself happy in cold winter days and get a whiff of these true blue summer scents whenever Iam feeling down and dark. www.JoMalone.com offers free shipping on any price and offers codes to try their different product samples. I used the code 'candles' so that I can get a vintage gardenia sample candle and a perfume sample. The order came very quickly and gift wrapped in a beautiful cream signature box and black tissue. The candle came in a jo malone paper bag wrapped in tissue.

Think of a tropical vacation and Lush islands. The scent of Lime Basil & Mandarin Conditioner takes you on a mini vacation. A scent that can be carried off by both men and women. Fresh limes and zesty mandarins are undercut by peppery basil and aromatic white thyme in this alluring signature blend. Lime Basil & Mandarin Conditioner is a very nice conditioner, which I really didn't expect it to be honestly but It left my hair in a nice non-frizzy condition and fragrance so beautifully with the fruity, lemony scent.

The vintage gardenia candle has the classic blend of gardenia and tuberose combined with cardamom, sandalwood and myrrh. The Vintage Gardenia with Cardamom and Myrrh Home Candle has a very warm scent and I trully loved it, it is ideal to burn in a bedroom or living area. I ordered a full size candle from Nieman marcus for my mother.

Another sample was of Pomegranate Noir Cologne
I really like this scent I found it to be a nice warm comfort scent. Like most Jo malone scents this is good for a light wear too, nothing heavy or cloying. Pomegranate Noir combines the sweet fruity notes of raspberry, plum, pink pepper and pomegranate with patchouli, frankincense and spicy woods to create a scent that’s sensual, totally sophisticated and utterly compelling.

I am very happy with the customer service and their packaging and presentation is perfect to gift on birthdays and even weddings or bridal gifts.

Dreamers web soaps review (etsy seller)







Dreamers web is a etsy shop owned by a Full time mother, Full time Accounting student and a Full time Crafter of these beautiful favour soaps. I recived the thank you 1 oz favor soaps in six scents sweet pea, cucumber melon, clean cotton,rain scent mistletoe and apple scent, they are all highly scented and very pretty to look at, I plan to send these thank you soaps to some guests along with the tank you notes after my party. I like the fact that these soaps are glycerin and cleans nice and she uses all scents which most people are famaliar with and nothing too complictaed and rare as these soaps are mostly for favors.

she offers many soaps that are wonderful for baby shower favors & birthday party favors like the mini soaps which includes teddybears, ducks, hearts, sleeping babies and even the larger animal shapes like the playful elephant or sleeping puppy. She offers 20 1 oz thank you soaps in custom scents for 14.99. 36 seasame street like soaps for 14.99 it is a set of 12 favors with 3 soaps each. 1" Glycerin Soaps in Character Shapes that are similar to Sesame Street Characters with Elmo-like soap, Cookie Monster-like soap, and Oscar the Grouch-like soap.

The Pink parchament soaps review


CREAMSICKLE SOAP


RASPBERRY PARFAIT SOAP


KEYLIME PIE SOAP



PINK GRAPEFRUIT SOAP




I was delighted to receive these four huge sized beauties whipped in to delicious smelling cold process soaps in the mail. They are generously weighed at between 3.1 and 3.7 oz. They are a pleasure to use in the bath, very soft and creamy just like they look like they will. I love the fact that these soaps have a wow factor, each and every person including kids and adults wanted a bar of of their own after the initial reaction of smile-at-sight.
My sister demanded a raspberry parfait bar immediately for her new bath in her apartment in NYC and has it in her soap basket as it goes with her ultra cute decor.

With the holiday season upon us I would say that these soaps would be a perfect way to make someone a happy with a gift box filled with these delicious and beautiful soaps. The team of mother and two daughters from Michigan makes soaps using Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Coconut oil, Infused Olive Oil, and are great to deal with.

The pink grapefruit is a fresh and juicy soap, which has a unisex fresh scent, looks amazingly girly but is a pretty fresh soap. great for those sweaty days in summer or a winter shower after getting those icky layers of clothing off.
The key lime is a great crispy wake me up scent, great for both summer and fall.
If you like sun ripened berry scent then Raspberry parfait is the soap for you.
Cream sickle smells like a orange ice cream bar and is a favorite with kids and moms alike.
The soaps which seems to be new scents for the season and are a next on my list to try are Lemon candy (yummy), spicy chai tea, iced gingerbread,chocoholic, Peppermint(oh those rough mornings will be history with this)Vanilla sugar and she also offers 8 full bars for $32.00 and 3 full bars for 12.00 which are great ways to try her products. Also keep an eye on the etsy sales posted on my blog and on the etsy forums for her sales and specials.
