The Everything Balm by Trilogy claims to sooth, soften, and moisturise all skin types. It suggests that it is ideal as a lip and cuticle conditioner and an all round "beauty multi-tasker." I really enjoy balms and anything that is marketed as an all-in-one (because I'm lazy like that) so I was excited to try this product.
Firstly, the packaging gives an appropriate vibe for the natural product. I do wish that the jar was glass instead of plastic... but that's purely for aesthetic reasons.
The product itself is a natural remedy and suits well as something to carry or to travel with. It smells great and gives a medicinal vibe, which is what I want from a balm. The product is all oils and I like this aspect because of the staying-power. Beware though, some may consider this greasy.
I put this product on after a shower and compared it to my normal routine of moisturisers on my heels and elbows, and also popped some on my cuticles as the packet suggested. I really like how it compared to my normal routine and would certainly use this product again to combat dry skin.
However, I have a similar product that I will use as a lip conditioner over the Everything Balm... and the jury is still out on its success as a cuticle conditioner...
I love this balm. It's wonderful to find a product that has so many use's. It's ideal for repairing dry area's on your body like your elbows and knees. And heels. It's non greasy formula is even perfect for applying to your face if you have dry patches , or to smooth out your under eye area.
As a lip balm i found it felt great on my lips but i like alot more moisture and shine. So i apply it under my lip balm. But it is perfect for smoothing your lips before you apply your favourite lippy.
It has almost a was like consistency, which melts easily on your finger. which makes it easy to apply. This balm is about as natural as you can get, It contains no preservatives and Essential oils such as : Marula oil , jojoba oil , wheat germ oil, honey , and Vitamin E. And is smells amazing. Love the packaging . Especially the box, the graphics really pretty. So would be perfect for a gift. I was really impressed with this product, just like all Trilogy products.
Tips: *use this balm on your lips when applying darker shades of lippy. It helps the colour not to stick to the lines on your lips. *Apply this balm to the cracks on your heals it really softens and heals . Wear sock at night with this balm on and you will have super soft feet. * Apply this balm to burns or bites. *Apply to your nails after your file them and before you apply your nail polish. Always pack this balm when going on holiday , it does what it says it will which is .... everything !
