Little Treats

One of my big weaknesses is the freebies that often come with magazines, and I seem to have collected a multitude of sample sizes because of it. I really want to get on top of my stash this year, so am making a real effort to use up as many of them as I can.
 
I am a huge fan of Aromatherapy Associates, so when they were giving away samples of their skincare, I bought several copies of the magazine. The set includes samples of their cleanser, face mask and moisturiser
 
Renewing Rose Cleanser this is a real pleasure to use. It is a rich cream cleanser that is super gentle on the skin. The rose fragrance is beautiful. This is my favourite product from the set.
 
Hydrating Rose Face Mask. Aromatherapy Associates say that this is a deeply moisturising mask. I have to say that I don't find that to be the case. I am a bit confused by it's name, as it didn't give the results I was expecting.  It is a lovely cooling mask, which is great on a hot Summer day, but not really what my skin needs during Winter. I find that I get much better results with this by using just a thin layer. This seems to give my skin a boost and a healthy glow.
 
Triple Rose Renewing Moisturiser this has a slightly more subtle fragrance than the cleanser, but again is a pleasure to use. This is definitely a product for dry skin as it is very moisturising. I love how soft and supple it makes my skin feel.

  1. Ooh, I've not checked the magazines this month. As I'm sure you know, I love AA. Which publication is giving them away? Sorry ahead if I'm being totally dim and missed it but couldn't see mention in your review? Thanks Karen. Tx
