Getting brand starter kits in mini sizes is one of the best ways to experience a full lineup of products without spending a fortune. I’ve been getting to know Dr.Ceuracle throughout this year thanks to Oshen Skin, and when I saw their adorable starter kit I had to have it. I like taking things like this with me when I travel vs decanting my own items into travel bottles or having a million individual sample foil packets.
The kit includes mini versions of Jeju Matcha Clay Pack, Royal Vita Propolis 33 Ampoule, Royal Vita Propolis 33 Cream, Tea Tree Purifine 30 Cleansing Foam, and Vegan Kombucha Tea Essence. The only product I’ve had before is the kombucha essence (review here) and it’s a holy grail for me. Sadly, the kit has been discontinued, but you can still get other minis on Stylevana or score deals on full sized items on Oshen Skin (discount code KBHOBBIT10).
I was recently away for 4 days in Colorado, where the air is as dry as sandpaper. The kit was brand new when I packed it. I didn’t take the mask with me since I knew that I wouldn’t have time to do a clay mask on this trip, but I took everything else.
Morning routine:
Water rinse
Propolis Cream
Sunscreen (brought separately)
Evening routine:
Oil cleanser (brought separately)
Tea Tree cleansing foam
Kombucha essence
Propolis ampoule
Propolis cream
I went through the entire tube of cleanser and all of the cream, but brought about half of the essence and the ampoule home. I could have probably gotten one more use out of the cleanser, but I forgot it in the hotel shower… Whoops. Either way, it was pretty much empty. I used the clay mask at a later time once back at home with access to a full bath tub. Unpopular opinion, but I despise when hotels only have showers and not tubs... Nobody travels with toddlers anymore? Mine can’t stand independently and showers get very tricky… Anyway, back to skincare.
My impressions
There was only one thing I didn’t care for in the whole kit - the Tea Tree cleanser. It’s actually a fine product, gentle with a soft, non-drying foam, and it cleanses well. The reason it’s not a favorite for me is the very strong tea tree smell. If I had a full size of it, I would still finish it, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to get this again.
The rest of the bundle was absolutely dreamy and was even in my latest fails and faves video (as a fave, of course). Aside from the superstar kombucha essence, which hydrates and nourishes without clogging pores, the cream blew my mind. I was so sad to use the last drops, and I will be getting a full size. It’s luxuriously rich but not heavy, and feels like a hug for the skin. I was so impressed that I included it in a special collaboration set with Oshen Skin, available until December 19, 2022 at a 40% discount!
The ampoule adds even more nourishment and soothing without overwhelming the skin. The clay mask left my skins soft, supple, and with visibly smaller pores. Overall, a total win. I highly recommend this kit for anyone who wants to experience more of Dr.Ceuracle before committing to full sized products.
