Lately, in my attempt to prepare for the upcoming flip flip weather, I've been putting in a serious effort in order to make my feet look more model like and less Fred Flintstone like. With this in mind, this package from Sweets For Feet could not have possibly come at a better time!
Firstly, I need to address how insanely adorable the box was. I was expecting the package to arrive in the typical brown box stuffed with packing peanuts, so finding this bright pink box with a tiny foot sticker on the top sure was a welcome surprise!
As if it was possible to be any cuter, I opened the pink box to find this adorable silky drawstring pouch waiting for me with all of the foot creams inside!
Once I took a minute to take in all the cuteness, I was able to spread the foot creams out and start sniffing and testing. My sample pack included five 1oz jars of Baklava, Buttercream Dream, Ginger Spice Cookie, Sugah Free (unscented), and Lemonade Cake scented foot creams. I found the 1oz jars to be the perfect size for testing, too.
Being half Greek, I figured I'd be doing a disservice to the entire country if I didn't start with the Baklava scented cream.
I absolutely adored the scent of this cream. It was the perfect mix of honey and lemon. Although it smells delicious, I do have to admit that it would come in second against my Mom's baklava in a sniffing contest! (Hi, Mom!)
Next up was the Ginger Spice Cookie cream.
As expected, as soon as I opened the container I got hit right dab in the nose with the awesome smells of ginger spice. I love spice scented items, pumpkin spice, ginger spice, monkey butt spice, it doesn't matter. If it says spice, I seem to love it, and this was no exception. It honestly smelled as if fresh cookies were being baked, aside from the hunger inducing effect it has on me, this one was a winner.
Working my way through the samples, I was anxious to try Lemonade Cake as well.
When I first opened the container of Lemonade Cake, it was very easy for me to smell the lemon scent, but it seemed to float away in the air soon after. I'm a big fan of lemon scented beauty products, so for me I would have loved it to be a bit more lemon scented and longer lasting. While I couldn't smell the lemon for too long, it did leave the skin smelling very fresh and citrus scented.
Next up, it was time to put Buttercream Dream to the test.
I loved the sugary sweetness of the scent of this cream. The cream smelled mostly of brown sugar to me, though I could also pick up some hints of vanilla. This was another one that made me hungry. This seems to be an ongoing theme for me, so these could be dangerous for my diet!
Last up to bat is Sugar Free, the old reliable unscented cream.
This one has all the great benefits of all the other creams, but is perfect for someone that prefers unscented products or has allergies. Since the cream is all natural, it makes an excellent choice. I found the quality of this cream to be just as nice as its scented counterparts, so if you are like me you may prefer scented creams but don't count this one out just yet!
Overall, I loved the way that these creams felt on my skin. They soaked in well and were not sticky or greasy, which seems to be a problem with a lot of foot creams. The scents continued to last for quite some time as well. Honestly, the packaging was adorable, the creams were fantastic and the customer service of Sweets For Feet couldn't be beat. They were excellent in helping me track down the package after it had gone MIA at the local post office. After using these nightly for a week, I did notice that my feet are very soft and smooth. Flip flops, here I come!
