Isle of Eden Review and Giveaway

I'm a huge fan of yummy smelling bath products-the amount of scrubs, bath salts, shower gels, bubble bath, lotions, potions and other girlie stuff I've collected is obscene. Naturally when I had the opportunity to try out some products from Isle of Eden, I jumped at the chance! I was intrigued by the website-the scent descriptions are so detailed which is rare-usually there's a lot of guesswork involved when ordering anything with fragrances online.

After much deliberation I finally settled on the Whipped Body Scrub, which I particularly love because you can layer several scents on top of each other so that as you scoop it out, you get a unique customized scent. When I opened it up it was dusted with a layer of shimmer and smelled incredible! The scents I layered were Hawaiian Sugar Creme (a delicious sweet coconut) and Blood Orange Sunset (blood orange blended with pineapple creme and mango mousse cake)..they work so amazingly well together!




I also picked up the Body Glow (made of sunflower and shea oil-no mineral oil!) which has a top that dispenses the perfect amount, avoiding a greasy mess. Just a few drops made my skin super soft after my shower, and it smelled so good. The "Can't Sleep, Clowns Will Eat Me" scent made me laugh at the title, but I was pleasantly surprised at the depth of this scent-a sweet cotton candy base with candied red apple and sugar dusted funnel cake-I actually smell each note in this one which was really nice. The Dazzle Glow is lovely as well-it's the Body Glow only with added shimmer to give your skin that pretty sheen. I've been hooked on all of them since they arrived!



Alexa was so sweet and easy to work with, she personally makes each product by hand and you can tell how much care she puts into each item. She kindly kept me updated on the status of my order and couldn't have been nicer. She has several products available where the profits go to various charities, such as the Dream Catchers Scrubs to help abused and neglected children and the Baby Harp Seal Scrubs to help save adorable seal pups-I'm all about getting soft skin AND helping out a great cause! Plus right now they are offering free shipping-you can't beat that!

Take a look at the website and read some of the unique, complex fragrances available here~
