Coconut Hut Valentine's Day 2011 Fragrances

This is the last of my Valentine's Day themed posts. We are finishing up with the limited edition fragrances from the etailer Coconut Hut. This one is unique in that it is located in Southern California and most of the fragrances are tropical or coconut themed. So when they do Valentine's Day, they put a very different spin on fragrances that just the usual chocolate-based fragrances. Which is good, I need something different right now. I have exhausted many of my sweet holiday fragrances and am rapidly looking forward to getting many of my spring fragrances out of my drawers. This collection only consists of six new fragrances but I am betting that all of them will be winners.

Valentine's Day, Coconut Hut style...

Burlesque Babe - Delicate jasmine absolute, pure Madagascar vanilla bean, Japanese cherry blossoms, and a touch of almond vanilla creme will bring out the pink feathered sequin goddess in you.

Doctor Love - You'll have your man burning up a fever of love with this playful and sweet scent. Layers of pink custard merinque between vanilla cake, topped with butter cream frosting and rainbow sprinkles.

French Kiss - Ripe strawberries dipped in vanilla frosting and dusted with powdered Belgian chocolate.

Lovey Dovey - A sinfully sweet fragrance of succulent raspberries, Swiss Alpine white chocolate, and triple whipped vanilla frosting.

Main Squeeze - Find your main squeeze with a man magnet scent like this. Slices of vanilla birthday cake, vine ripened strawberries, whipped vanilla cream, and marshmellow fluff.

Pillow Talk - Talk dirty to me! A love festive blend of apricot jam, mango ice cream, raspberry whipped cream, and apple frosting.

As with the other etailer companies that we looked at this season, this company's scrubs and hydrators are top notch. With the exception of Bathed and Infused, I really don't prefer the body washes from these companies. They are alright but nothing spectacular. The wash from Coconut Hut is shea butter infused and gives a bit of foam but not huge bubbles.

I recommend the following products from this company...

Coco Cabana Whipped Body Souffle - This thick decadent cream is whipped to perfection and moisturizes with rich Shea and Cocoa butters. Tropical oils and plant extracts lavish your skin in softness. It glides onto your skin and absorbs immeditately leaving only softness behind. 90% Organic Content. Vegan friendly. 98% Natural.

Big Kahuna Ultra Rich Body Butter - Bathe your skin in an oasis of moisture. This rich nourishing butter has the consistency of decadent butter cream frosting and leaves your skin feeling dewy soft. It is 98% natural, made with 25% shea butter, 25% cocoa butter, lush oils of soy and golden jojoba, and aloe leaf extract to soothe and soften. The King of all Body Butters!

Hawaiian Icing Whipped Sugar Scrub - A Coconut Hut best seller and Lena's favorite scrub! A luscious blend of Organic Cane Sugar, Golden Cane Brown Sugar, Granulated Cane Sugar, skin nourishing Cocoa Butter, and precious oils of Coconut and Jojoba. This scrub is truly unique in texture. It is thick and rich like frosting, spreads on your body smoothly, and buffs away all of your dry skin. When applied this amazing sugar scrub turns into a creamy lotion, rinsing clean without any greasy residue. You are left with moisturized and incredibly soft skin.
For a minute there I actually forgot how much I love that scrub. And the body butter is the thickest moisturizer that I have ever used and is the perfect product to get my dry skin back into shape before the warmer weather. Now I want to go and order more in all of these new fragrances. I have to say that I like the sound of all of these fragrances. My favorites are Burlesque Babe and Main Squeeze.

Well Valentine's Day is over for another year very soon. I guess that I have survived it again. Beauty products makes this holiday so much better than it was before.
