Review & Giveaway: Spa Fantasy Playset

by holly on September 15, 2008

This giveaway has ended. Please check out our newest giveaway by clicking on the label GIVEAWAY on our right sidebar. We typically start a new giveaway every Monday.

Enter to win your own Spa Factory set after you read our review! Find out how to win at the end of this post. JAKKS Pacific gave us a Spa Factory to review and since I have a one year old little boy who isn’t really suited to this product, I had my favorite 8 year old little girl, Riley, come over to help me test it out.
The Spa Factory comes with everything you need to make your own perfume, lip gloss, facial masks and bath bombs. It also comes with an aroma therapy fountain!

If you have an impatient little girl, I suggest you set up the Spa Factory before hand. As is common with toy packaging, just unwrapping this set and getting it out of the box is time consuming.

First we set up the aromatherapy fountain so we could relax while we made our lip gloss and perfume. We added some water and selected our fragrance and turned it on. It smelled great but the noise was a little less than soothing. Still, it was a neat addition to our spa experience.

Next we mixed up our lip gloss by following the easy directions on the recipe card (included). It made a cute little pot of lip gloss that smelled yummy.

Then we concocted our perfume by adding essential oils to a perfume base, mixing it up and putting it in a little perfume bottle.
To finish up, we made labels for our products out of the little sticker labels that came with it.

Riley had a lot of fun concocting her very own spa products. She was so excited at how they came out that she wanted to open her own business and sell them to her friends! I suggested that with Christmas around the corner, they might make perfect little gifts.

Speaking of gifts- wouldn’t this set make the perfect gift for any little girl (8+) on your Christmas shopping list? It has a suggested retail price of $29.99 and is available at retailers nationwide. For more info, visit http://www.myspafactory.com/. (this is a brand new site and may not be up and running until later this week. You can also find more info at http://www.jakks.com/.)

Also available in the Spa Factory line of products:

Spa Party Sleepover for 3 Playset-includes a stylized, fold up party box with storage drawers and carrying handle filled with the yummy “Strawberry Swirl” essential oil collection, sugar scrub, lip gloss and perfume base, plus all the supplies needed to make a great Spa Factory gift pack. Suggested retail $19.99.

Spa Factory Comfort Collection-includes a towel hair wrap, a pair of comfort slippers, lavender fragrance oil, oat blend masks, a mixing bowl, spoon whisk, pipette, and recipe cards and a label sheet. Suggested retail price$14.99

Spa Factory Travel Kit-includes the “Fruit Smoothie” flavor and fragrance oils such as “Strawberry Kiss” and “Banana”, perfume base, lip gloss, mixing tools, gift supplies, a recipe card, and a cool travel purse to carry-and-go. Suggested retail price $12.99

Spa Facial Benefits-The set contains the “Vanilla Soufflé” collection of fragrance oils, oat blend and much more, including all the mixing and gifting accoutrements needed to whip up enticing beauty products. Suggested retail Price $12.99

Spa Bath Benefits-contains fragrance oils featuring the “Fresh Jasmine” essential oils of “Mint” and “Jasmine”, natural citrus blend and bath fizzy powder to make her own bath bombs and fizzies for the tub. Suggested retail price $12.99

Inside of my daughter lies a mad scientist, she would love this, probably the bath bombs the most. Thanks so much!

micaela6955 September 16, 2008 at 7:05 pm

with me, it is a toss up. I think my daughter will enjoy making lip gloss and perfume, because she is so into everything girly right now. She gets into my perfumes and sprays them on before she goes to school, and I can’t tell you how many times she has come out of the bathroom with a little more “shine” on her lips than natural! She loves to experiment with colors and scents, so she would love something like this!

Courtney September 17, 2008 at 4:14 am

Considering I’ve never been able to take my daughter(s) to the store without them having a fit over wanting more lip gloss, I think the lip gloss would be the biggest hit in our house. :)

Jaclynn September 17, 2008 at 4:18 am

Oh My Gosh!!! Could that set be any cuter?? It’s every little girls dream fantasy to get all dolled up and the fact that they get to make the stuff themselves is just too cute. I have two girls that are VERY girly and would love everything this has to offer, especially making their own perfume and the aromatherapy fountain. What a great idea! They’ve thought of it all! Thanks for the opportunity!

Kari September 17, 2008 at 11:33 am

I know my daughter and I would really enjoy making these bath bombs together!
