Cleanse Your Soul Valentine's Day Fragrances

And so we are back to Valentine's Day again! Actually we are just getting started with all the limited edition fragrances and products that hit the stores to celebrate this holiday. I do have to say that I love many of the limited edition fragrances that are released every Valentine's Day. Having a taste for sweet fragrances makes this time of the year a ripe time for all kinds of offerings of new candy-based fragrances. For the first of the new fragrances this year, we are starting with the independant etailer, Cleanse Your Soul. This company is tops for sweet, bakery inspired fragrances and heavy duty moisturizers and scrubs. At the moment, this company is looking at a two to three week turn-around time so the earlier that you order your products, the better your chances to have them by the beginning of the month.

Here are the limited edition Valentine's Day fragrances...

Come Away With Me and Be My Love - Blackberries, Pineapple, Strawberries, and Champagne.

How Do I Love Thee? - Summer strawberries with Vanilla Bean Noel and Marshmellow (the companion scent to Let Me Count the Ways).

Upon A Lilac Sea - Spring Lilacs on a bed of Vanilla Sugar.

Love Never Fails - White Wedding Cake, Yuzu, Blood Oranges, and Lemon Sugar.

Thou Art More Lovely - Pink Sugar, Cherries, Champagne, and Whipped Cream.

Love is My Sin - Rich Dark Chocolate, Almond Cream, and a hint of spices.

Idle Tears - White Chocolate Mousse topped with Strawberry Glace.

Perfumed Sea - Fresh air notes sing when combined with violets and sandalwood.

Beautiful Dreamer - White Nectarine filling sandwiched between sugar cookies.

Weeping of the Rain - The scent for a sad Valentine's Day... Black Vanilla, Blackberries, and Amber.

A Divine Rapture - Red Raspberry and Strawberry laced Marshmellow frosting between layers of White Cake, Red Velvet Cake, and Vanilla Poundcake.

Ah, My Beloved - Madagascar Vanilla, Egyptian Musk, and Vanilla Beans.

Love is Enough - Whispers of spring flowers blended with mountain air notes and fresh linen notes.

Lullaby Love - Sweet lavender vanilla combined with a fresh linen scent. Snuggle up with this scent!

Night Thoughts - The scent of sweet baby roses intermingled with incense and sandalwood.

If Thou Must Love Me - Chocolate covered strawberries, Vanilla wafers, and Marshmellows.

Life in a Love - Bouquet of Roses with Red Currants and Cloves.

I love the concept of Weeping of the Rain, it might just be my perfect fragrance to wear on Valentine's Day evening! So I know that that fragrance is a must order but I have a bit of a shopping list on this one. How Do I Love Thee?, Thou Art More Lovely, Love Never Fails, A Divine Rapture, Love is Enough, Lullaby Love, Night Thoughts, and If Thou Must Love Me. I'm not a fan of all these names but I bet these will be some amazing bakery fragrances. I recommend any of the body creams or scrubs from this company and I also think that I will be trying out a perfume or two from this line to see how they wear.

And the picture? I'm trying guys, this is for all of you that love this holiday!

Cleanse Your Soul Holiday 2010 Fragrances

The retail world is packed with holiday products this year but some types of fragrances can only be found through the etailing world. Since I am a Vanilla Bean Noel girl, Cleanse Your Soul is a top pickof mine this time of the year. The owner's Vanilla Bean Noel fragrance is famous in the etailer world and some fans find it to be even nicer than the original Bath and Body Works version. And on this site, it is offered in all types of products from rich, heavy butters to a variety of different types of scrubs. But since Vanilla Bean Noel isn't the only fragrance that she offers around this season, we are going to check all of them out.

Jolly, Happy Soul - Our famous Vanilla Bean Noel blended with the best Candy Cane scent EVER!

Yuletide Treasure - Grandma's fudge cookies on the stove: White Chocolate, Milk Chocolate, and lots of creamy vanilla sugar.

In addition to a bunch of Vanilla Bean Noel products that I am hoping to order, I need to plan an order around many of these new fragrances. The ones that I love the most are: Jolly, Happy Soul; Yuletide Treasure; There Must Have Been Some Magic; Most Wonderful Time of the Year; Realms of Glory; Heavenly Peace; One Accord; Glory Shone; Visions of Sugar Plums; and All is Calm. It seems that this holiday season I want to smells like all the baked goods that will be coming out of my mother's kitchen... And the blend of Vanilla Bean Noel with peppermint?! Lovely!

Product wise, I love this body cream and the body emollient. I love the foaming sugar scrub and both the body wash and the 3 in 1. One word of adive, if you would like to order from etailes for gifts, you need to shop ahead. All the products are handmade and this is the time of the year that it takes long to get the products made and sent out.

Cleanse Your Soul Valentine's Day Fragrances

Cleanse Your Soul is an independent bath and body product company that I used to order from all the time about two years ago. I haven't ordered from then in a bit so I decided to go back look through her new products when I got the monthly email from the owner, Judy. She has the Valentine's Day limited edition fragrances up so I have some new scents to look at. The best products from this company are any of the body creams, the scrubs, and the EDTs. Every product that I have tried from this company has served me well so far but I recommend the above products.

Here are the Valentine's Day fragrances...

Come Away With Me & Be My Love - juicy blackberries, pineapple, summer strawberries, and champagne

How Do I Love Thee? - summer strawberries with vanilla bean noel and marshmallow

Upon A Lilac Sea - spring lilacs on a bed of vanilla sugar

Love Never Fails - white wedding cake, yuzu, blood oranges, and lemon sugar

She Walks In Beauty - fluffy cotton candy, black cherries, angel food cakes, and loads of whipped cream

Thou Art More Lovely - Pink sugar, wild red cherries, champagne, and whipped cream

Love Is My Sin - rich dark chocolate blended with almond cream and a hint of spices

Idle Tears - white chocolate mousse topped with strawberry glace

Perfumed Sea - fresh air notes sing when combined with violets and sandalwood

Beautiful Dreamer - white nectarine filling sandwiched between frosted sugar cookies

Weeping Of The Rain - the scent for a sad Valentine's Day: black vanilla, blackberries, and amber

A Divine Rapture - red raspberry and strawberry-laced marshmallow frosting between red velvet cake, white cake, and vanilla poundcake

Ah, My Beloved - hauntingly beautiful scent combining Madagascar vanilla, Egyptian musk, and vanilla beans

Love Is Enough - whispers of spring flowers blended with mountain air notes and fresh linen notes

Endless Blue - Blue sugar mixed with sparkling soda and a spritz of vanilla syrup

If Thou Must Love Me - chocolate-covered strawberries nestled next to vanilla wafers and marshmallows

I Carry Your Heart - Pink sugar blended with a deep red wine...a very sultry scent

Life In A Love - a bouquet of a dozen red roses, red currant, and cloves

Judy's Pink sugar blends are always top notch, so they are always a pick of mine. Also, I have noted that her floral scents are quite strong so they are not for the faint of heart. However, since I love florals with a passion, they are a pick of mine. Of these limited edition fragrances, I would like to order products in How Do I Love Thee?, She Walks In Beauty, Thou Art More Lovely, Perfumed Sea, Beautiful Dreamer, A Divine Rapture, Love Is Enough, and If You Must Love Me. Looks like a large order is coming up soon...

Also, Judy is running a bunch of specials this month so I would recommend looking them up if you want to try this company for the first time. The specials change every month so there is always a reason to revisit the site again. Take some time and look at some body products that are outside the mall...

Cleanse Your Soul Pink Fairy Frosting

For the last few weeks, I have remained rather loyal to one fragrance of body products in my ultra-large stash. That scent is called Pink Fairy Frosting from Cleanse Your Soul and is quickly becoming a favorite of mine. We all know that I love Pink Sugar scents and dupes for a huge majority of my body products. Also, I am rather critical of Pink Sugar scents since there are so many to choose from.

Pink Fairy Frosting is a mixture of two of my favorites kinds of scents; Pink Sugar and sugary sweet frosting. Really, its double the tooth aching sweetness of many of my other products (just the way that I like it!). The Cleanse Your Soul website lists the scent as a mixture of Pink Sugar and vanilla frosting. I have this product in shower gel, sugar scrub and body butter and I love all of them. I do think that my favorite product is the sugar scrub. Why? When I ordered it, I asked Judy (owner of the company) to color the scrub bright pink. So not only does it smell great, I feel super girly and cute when I use bright pink body products. The sugar scrub foams up, is non-greasy, rinses clean of the skin. The shower gel is fair. It doesn’t foam up as well as some other brands do but Judy doesn’t have access to the all the foam creating chemicals that a Bath and Body Works would. So the less amount of foam and lather is better for my dry winter skin. The body butter is thick and hydrating while still easy to work into the skin.

I am actually kind of sad that I using through these products so quickly because I very much in love with this scent and these products. Looks like I will be making another order pretty soon.
