This is a small four piece launch but it has all the pieces of a full routine. Everything is packaged in white plastic. Three items have airless pumps and one is a jar. I'm never sure what to expect when approached by a brand to explore their new line. Some end up being just OK and some really surprise me. This one was the latter. I absolutely loved the textures of these products. The ingredients are really nice and the line seems well done.

The Triple Cream has a lightweight texture yet it's surprisingly hydrating. It will be a great winter day cream for me, and I found it best as a night cream during the hot summer months. It has a really light smooth creamy texture. The scent is very light and natural. It's got aloe, sweet almond oil, olive fruit extract, shea butter, sodium hyaluronate, rosehip fruit extract, calendula, pomegranate, grape seed, prickly pear, glycerin & vitamin E. I quite liked it overall as it's just such a pleasant light cream to use.

The Neroli Radiance Serum is a creamy hydrating gel style serum. This smells like neroli (which I adore). It has aloe, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, neroli & orange flower extract. I liked this as a hydrating serum with a boost. Neroli (beyond smelling great) is antibacterial, has a toning/tightening effect & it helps balance the skin. The Rosewater Wellspring Cleanser is a hydrating gel cleanser. It smells like roses and neroli. It's got aloe, glycerin, sodium hyaluronate, rosehip fruit extract, rose flower water & salicylic acid. It's non-drying and a nice gel cleanser. I like this as a morning cleanse or second cleanse. I wouldn't use this as a makeup remover. Overall it's a pleasant soothing, hydrating serum & gel cleanser.

The Espresso Eye Cream has a hydrating gel cream texture. This product is the reason I agreed to test out the Sole Toscana line. I love espresso and was drawn to the name. Something told me I really needed an Espresso Eye Cream. It's got aloe, sweet almond oil, shea butter, sodium hyaluronate, rosehip fruit extract, caffeine, coffee seed oil, pomegranate, grape seed & prickly pear oil. Coffee seed oil is really high in antioxidants. Some studies have shown that coffee oil helps with elastin and collagen production, it’s anti-inflammatory & helps with all the basic of anti-aging like firmness, texture and wrinkles. This has a light coffee scent combined with a very faint rose. I love the hydrating gel texture. It's more hydrating than I thought it would be. This manages to de-puff plus it hydrates well and has the perfect moisture level for days. If you have one item you grab from the line this is it.

The Sole Toscana line is all natural, organic, cruelty free and they donate a portion of profits to the She’s The First charity program which provides underprivileged women in developing countries with education and promoting female empowerment.I really liked the line overall and I look forward to seeing what else they come up with in the future.
