The Fortune Cookie Soap Box is a monthly subscription that offers bath and body products centered on a new theme each month. Each month FCS will create new products to fit that theme, and then will offer up the extended collection for sale later in the month.
FYI- Fortune Cookie Soap recently changed their subscription model. Read more about it here.
This month’s theme was “Hello Summer.”

Fortune Cookie Soap “Hello Summer” June 2019 Review
Here is the info sheet for the items sent this month.
We also received a sticker!
Stay Golden Glowtion Aloe Me Whipped Cream - Full-Size! Retail Value $15.99
This shimmery aloe me whipped cream arrived at the perfect time- I was just thinking that I hoped we received a full-size from FCS soon because it is one of my absolute favorite body lotions. This combines a light lotion with aloe vera, and we have the added bonus of shimmer. This isn't too noticeable once it is massaged into my legs, and the scent is a tasty blend of coconut water, lemon zest, and beach roses with seagrass. To quote the FCS team, "shell yeah."
Sandy Toes & Sunkissed Nose Sea Salt Body Scrub - Buy the full-size version for $16.99
This scrub is made with dead sea salt, sweet almond seed oil, and mango butter to help you exfoliate without being too abrasive. The scent is a blend of sweet orange blossom, driftwood, ocean vibes, and kumquat, and I like the bright notes of citrus.
Eat. Beach. Sleep. Repeat SPF 15 Sunscreen Stick - Buy the full-size version for $8.95
This SPF smells nice with a mix of cantaloupe, lychee, wild sugar cane, and vanilla orchid, but the formula was pretty crumbly and a bit difficult to use. This small size means it would take a lot of elbow grease to apply it to a large area, and the fact that you only get SPF 15 protection makes the product one that I personally won't use.
Marine Mood Sea Salt Hair Spritz - Buy the full-size version for $9.99
Sea salt sprays are not something I put in my hair willingly, but I did really love the scent of mango nectar, beach lilies, sea salt, and lime. I'll be passing this along to a less curly friend, and I do appreciate the creativity in sending a sea salt spray (I believe this is my first one from FCS) even if it doesn't personally work for me.
The Verdict: This box was a fun one! I enjoyed the summer theme, and while some of the products were personal misses overall I thought the curation was spot on. The cost of the glowtion alone is worth almost the cost of the entire box, and I am excited that it was the full-size item in this month's box.
