It's no secret that I love a tester set. I love being able to get a feel for a brand before committing to buying the full size products. This is particularly true, when a lot of the brands I drool over sell mainly online. I have had this set from Suti for quite a while and paid about £9 for it. When I looked online I see that the current sets include a sample of their Honour Face Cream, which I don't think came with mine. Having said that, I feel £9 was a fair price for 5 decent sample sizes.
Rejuvenate Face Oil (4mls) is what I would describe as a dry oil. It's formula is very light, making it ideal for day time use. Despite how easily this absorbs it feels very hydrating on the skin, thanks to the Rosehip, Evening Primrose, Jojoba Oils and Carrot Seed Extract. It has a gorgeous uplifting citrus fragrance and I can see why this is one of Suti's best selling products. It is certainly one of my favourites of the samples.
Rosa Rubiginosa (Rosehip) Seed Oil*, Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil*, Argania (Argan) Spinosa Kernel Oil*, Limonene**, Citrus Reticulata (Tangerine) Peel Oil*, Tocopherol, Santalum Austrocalendonicum (Sandalwood) Wood Oil, Boswelia Carterii (Frankincense)*, Citrus Aurantium Bigaradia (Orange) Flower Oil*, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil*, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Seed Extract*, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil*, Linalool**, Geraniol**, Citral**
Nourish Face Oil is a more intensive face oil designed to be used at night. I would say that this is better suited to dry or mature skin types. When I looked through the ingredient list, I expected that this would be the oil that I would favour. It has a really strong base of nourishing oils which suit my dry skin perfectly. A combination of Avacado, Macademia, Apricot , Sesame, Argan and Candula, sounds wonderful, and indeed left my skin feeling very soft and pampered. I usually love the fragrance of Geranium, Bergamot, Patchouli and Jasmine, but I found this a little too heady. I think if this were a body oil, I would love this, but as a face oil it is a little much for me,
Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil*, Macadamia Integrifolia Seed Oil*, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil*, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil*, Argania (Argan) Spinosa Kernel Oil*, Tocopherol, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract*, Citrus Sinesis (Orange) Peel Oil*, Pelargonium X Asperum (Geranium) Oil*, Citrus Aurantium Bergamia (Bergamot) Fruit Oil*, Pogostemon Cablin (Patchouli)*, Jasminum (Jasmine) Grandiflorum*, Limonene**, Citronellol**, Geraniol**, Linalool**, Citral**, Benzyl Benzoate**, Eugenol**
Cleanse Facial Cleansing Balm is simply divine. In the pot, the balm has a slightly grainy appearance (as do all the balm samples), but this soon disappears on contact. The balm transforms into an oil when warmed between the fingers. The combination of Shea butter, Cacoa butter and Beeswax makes this a very nourishing formula, although is obviously not suited to Vegans. Again it has a bright, cheerful and citrusy fragrance that makes this a pleasure to use. This is certainly one of my favourite products from the set.
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter*, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Seed Butter, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil*, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil*, Cera Alba (Unrefined Beeswax)*, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter*, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil*, Limonene**, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract*, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil*, Citrus Reticula (Mandarin) Oil*, Tocopherol, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil*, Pelargonium X Graveolens (Geranium) Flower Oil*, Linalool**, Geraniol**, Citronellol**
Purity Gentle Balm is a super rich balm, that is perfect for soothing dry and irritated skin anywhere. This was originally made for babies, so it has a very subtle fragrance and is very gentle. Another lovely balm.
Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter*, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Seed Butter, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil*, Prunus Armeniaca (Apricot) Kernel Oil*, Cera Alba (Unrefined Beeswax)*, Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Seed Butter*, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil*, Limonene**, Calendula Officinalis Flower Extract*, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil*, Citrus Reticula (Mandarin) Oil*, Tocopherol, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil*, Pelargonium X Graveolens (Geranium) Flower Oil*, Linalool**, Geraniol**, Citronellol**
Fabulous Foot Balm is a refreshing and deodorising blend of peppermint, eucalyptus and lemon essential oils. It really is an incredibly rich formula and needs to be used very sparingly. I am very impressed with how soft this made my feet.

I have a few samples from Suti that I haven't gotten around to testing yet - but they all smell good! I love minty foot balms especially. I have a little sachet of the Honour Face Cream if you'd like it - I'm not looking to fall for any more moisturisers at the moment! x
ReplyDeleteI think I have that problem with cleansers, I don't seem to be able to stop myself from buying them x
DeleteI love trial size sets and am a huge fan of this brand. Especially the foot balm and moisturiser x
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely aren't they, I am very impressed with Suti so far x
DeleteI like to buy sample packs for the same reason that you mention here. I love the sound of the Rejuvenate oil. I always prefer a dry oil to thick and rich ones for daytime as they don't weigh so heavily on the skin. The fact that this one has rosehip too makes it very appealing to me. I think all my oils containing rosehip are on the viscous side - nothing wrong with that for night-time (in fact welcomed) but for day I do prefer the lighter touch. Tx
ReplyDeleteI agree, I definitely like something a touch lighter for daytime x
ReplyDeleteI bought this sample pack in the past as well. I love their oils and balms, really good.
