Oh no, another very tempting sale. I also read that IOE is adding some Lush dupes. I wonder when they will be added to the site, hopefully before the sale is over. Big Grin

ETA: Sorry, I just read Megans post in Etailer Dupes. Bonk

I got my order today. Yes

*Scent Reviews*
Candied Rose Marshmallows: Strong & sweet rose scent.
Caribbean Marshmallows: I think the lime is a stronger note than the lemon, but I can tell that it's just not lime. I think the two blend well together. Yes
Citrine Marshmallow Fluff: I think the lime note is strongest in this. But I think this is a lighter citrus scent in comparison to Caribbean Marshmallows. Crap
Double Pink Lemonade: Normally in IOE terms, "pink lemonade" = PS + lemonade. But this actually smells like pink lemonade. Yes
Fruity Loops: I think Toucan Sam would approve. Yes
Pink Fluff: It smells like Pink Sugar, but the PS in this one is of medium strength.
Sugar Dusted Lime Marshmallow: Smells like lime Life Savers. Big Grin
Twisted Cherry Pie: I get a syrupy cherry scent from this one. It's OK, but I prefer other IOE cherry scents to this one.
Violet Taffeta: This has the typical IOE sweet violet scent. But that's fine by me. Yes

Another thing I noticed is that my scrubs are a softer texture than the scrubs I received in my last order. But that's not a problem for me. I haven't tried out the texture of the shower milkshakes yet, but I will try to soon. Yes

ETA: I got my voucher from the cotton candy contest today. I placed order #7689 for a Cotton Candy Frosting scrub & a Be Sweet, Honey bath cream.

Thanks for the reviews, Megan. I am glad that toucan Sam would approve Fruity Loops. I am so excited to smell it. It's my favourite cereal, eventhough I don't buy or eat cereal. Speaking of cereal, I tried something really good yesterday, but I'll post it in the Edible Goodies thread.Popcorn

I received a free Fruity Loops scrub in my last order and was really impressed at how much it smelled like the cereal. I would definitely recommend it!

There's a new World collection up containing 2 parts: Caribbean & Paris. I think there might be some things from the Paris collection calling my name. winking

I also used one of my newer scrubs tonight. I actually liked the softer texture. Anemone & Miss V, how are the texture of your scrubs? Are they softer or the same as the ones I sent decants of?

I was able to sniff some of my latest IOE order and I hope to have the reviews up sometime this week. Life has been crazy with wedding plans!

Megan,

I agree with you that I think the scrubs are a little softer than the ones that you sent me a while back. I have no complaints though. My skin is very sensitive! Smiler

I recieved a completed notice for my order 6960 a few days ago! Im really excited about this order, as it contains mostly Ice Cream Dreams and Marshmallow Madness stuff and also my current favorite Honeybell Dreamland Love
I still have a while before I see this order though, since international shipping can take a while Frowner

A friend also placed an order a few weeks ago and she was kind enough to add a couple of things for me as well Big Grin
I got>
Marshmallow Brulee - Hair Mist
Tutti Frutti Ice Cream - Bee So Soft!
Lime Candy Cake - Sugar Scrub
Passionate Cotton Candy - Turbinado Scrub
Sugared Marshmallow Peeps - Perfume Spray

Our order number is 7300 so shouldnt be to long until its complete as well Big Grin
Im excited to see how Marshmallow Peeps turns out, I cant imagine how the Yellow Sugar Coating could smell Confused

Im already plotting my next order.
Im interested in a few items from the new collection, I wonder what Couture Candy would smell like? The description only says A Sexy, Elegant, Mysterious Candy Treat.

Im also waiting for the descriptions of Pink Candy (Lush type) and Fairy Snow Candy (Lush type).
I assume the later will be Snow Fairy but whats Pink Candy? Maybe Candy Fluff??

Nbgs, Couture Candy sounded interesting to me. But the "mysterious" element throws me for a loop. I'm scared I'll end up w/ something pineapple, blueberry, or another scent that I don't care for. Crap I think I'll wait for reviews on this one. But I definitely want the new rose & violet scents. Love

I believe Pink Candy is Candy Fluff/Rock Star. I think I'm going to have to get one of the Lush candy dupes to see whether it's better than the original. Yes

I made order #7737. Here's what I ended up getting.

Scrubs:
Petits Choux
Wonderland In A Citron Galaxy

Bath Creams:
Banana Split Cake
Love In The City Of Light
Pink Fairy Sweets

OK, I think I'll have awhile to wait for this one. And now I have 4 pending IOE orders, so I think I'm going to have to go on an IOE no buy for awhile (at least until I get my next order).

I placed an order recently for more items in some of my favorite scents so far: a Bee So Soft lotion and perfume roll-on in D'lish, a scrub in White Chocolate #9, and an Upside Down Sundae (scrub on top, bath cream on bottom - it will be fun to try out the bath cream) in Strawberry Lemon Curd over Vanilla Marshmallow Cupcakes.

I also got my last Valentine's Day sale order in yesterday so I can post more scent reviews soon. In this package were dream creams in White Chocolate #9 and Sweet Nothings, and body washes in Vanilla Cupcake and Diamonds on the Shore.

Some more scent reviews:

White Chocolate #9 I love this scent. Smells very realistically like white chocolate, also detect some vanilla and buttercream scents in there. I put this on my hands at work and one of my coworkers started asking around who was eating cake!

Vanilla Cupcake Good basic frosted vanilla cake scent. Nothing too special but it's nice in a body wash since it will layer very well with all sorts of other scents.

Diamonds on the Shore This was described as a mix of gardenia, coconut, and white frosted cupcakes. It's a nice scent, but all I smell is a mellowed-out gardenia. Smells nice and clean though.

Sweet Nothings This was supposed to be a mix of almonds, black cherries, and whipped cream and I think it fits that description quite well. It's a very strong scent, so I'll probably be using the dream cream that I got in this as a hand cream at work as opposed to putting it on all over.

I got to try some scents that are new to me in a decant swap I got from Miss V. Yes So here are some of my reviews.

Lime Fairyland: Lime is the predominant note, but I get a slightly cherry edge to it. Yes I think both notes mix together well without one overpowering the other.

Peach Fluff: This is my first time trying an IOE peach scent. This one smells fruity, but slightly spicy. I'll try this one out in the shower & see if it develops into something more.

Also, they seem to be plowing through the orders. Apparently 200 orders went out this week & they're trying to get 200-250 more out this week. wow They're working on 7115-7345. I have one in that batch. Big Grin

Apparently they're sending out a newsletter in a few days w/ the newest scents. My wallet quivers in fear. help

I got the latest email from Alexa at IOE and I have to say I am really tempted to place yet another order. Bonk I really shouldn't though because I want to save up and get the Nina Ricci perfume. I just have to remind myself that I have over twenty jars of IOE that should last me a VERY LONG TIME! Rotflol

I also received that email. I am very intrigued by the Bee So Sexy shower gel sugar scrub in squeezable shower bottle. Next order I place, I think I may try one of those. She is definitely cranking those orders out. Clap

Lime Fairyland and Peach Fluff sound really good. Yes
Thanks for the review Magan. Smiler
