Evolu Travel Tower Review

I bought an Evolu Travel Tower years ago - it was on special and I was living in Welly and having to travel to see family and friends all over the place, as well as travel on the odd occasion for work, so I thought 'why not?' and I was glad I did.

The little pots are the perfect size for stashing in your toilet bag and they made keeping up your beauty routine so easy. I wasn't a regular Evolu user as it was outside of my budget, but the products were lovely and didn't cause any breakouts or dryness. Obviously there's not enough in the pots to see long term effects, but as the short term ones were good I'd have been keen to continue using them, and if I could have afforded to, I would have. The best part of this tower though was that you could refill the pots once empty with similar product (cleanser in the cleanser pot etc), so it could be used again and again.

Somewhere during the mists of time I managed to lose my Tower, but if I were to take up travelling on a regular basis again (fast forward 16 years or so when the little one is older, or perhaps fast forward 30 years to when I have Kiwisaver cash and decide to travel with my retirement money, lol) I'll definitely repurchase. Very much recommend for those who take regular trips.

Love this product. Was given it as a gift and find it is so handy. All the products are lovely to use, and I find they actually last a long time because you only need a little bit. You could always refill the empty containers I guess but I haven't had to yet. Only problem is that there is no makeup remover, but the eye cream works quite well for eye makeup.

I have used this tower for a couple of holidays now, and it is all I need for skincare which is a great space saver!

I enjoyed all 6 products, including the mask for an extra moment of luxury. They have really thought of everything. Evolu have high quality natural products that are perfect for my combination skin without causing irritations. The cleanser is gentle to use being a cream cleanser, the day and night moisturisers keep me moisturised day and night. The eye cream is perfect for dryness around the eye area.

I love how easy it is to refill the different pottles, so it will last multiple times. The packaging is easy to use, and I really love how cute it looks.

First, the concept of little pots of essentials is perfect. What a wonderful travel accessory!

The cleanser did its job - happily! Its softness left my skin feeling rejuvenated and the subtle aroma was very appealing.

The exfoliant built on the cleanser's good work, but gently and with enthusiasm.

Soothing eye gel is well branded, and with this included in Evolu's travel tower it means eye care is never missed. My eyes appreciated the gel's brightening feel.

Balancing day cream soaked into my skin quickly and my face felt well nourished in its care.

Balancing night cream, another product which sometimes misses the "travel" kit, is a bonus and we all know that night nourishment is the best for us.

Hands are not forgotten either, with the nourishing hand cream feeling so kind to the skin on my hands, and they remained soft and supple for a long time.

This Evolu travel tower will be on my regular shopping list, it is the answer to a common dilemma of "what to take". Thank you for the opportunity to review it.

First impressions are of the practical and cute packaging.

The wee tower of individual pods with each clearly marked product is a fantastic ideal perfect sized for 3-5 day trip (depending on your preferred heavy or light usage of the products) it could easily be refilled and I like that idea, placed in a handbag or toilet bag this undoubtedly will be a very handy product for travelling

. I was however less impressed with the Evolu procucts themselves. Positives - cleanser (and all the products actually) smelled pleasantly botanical and natural and felt light but more negative seemed to sap my skin of moisture. Feels like it was perhaps designed for older or oiler skin?

My favourite is the eye gel and hand cream - both products I would use again.

I so thought absolutely worth a try as the evolu products may suit your skin type. ideal handy practical and cute as little travel kit.

Being a flight attendant the Evolu Travel Tower is perfect for my overnights. It helps cut down products that I take in my LAG (Liquids, Aerosol & Gel) bag and gives me more room to take other necessities. There is an extra lid in the stack if you feel like dividing the products or only feel like taking a couple of products on a day trip.

The tower contains 6 cute little pottles that contain skincare products from the Evolu range. There is only 10mls of product in each pottle so would only last about 2 weeks but they are refillable so can refill them with full sized products or fill with DIY skincare.

The review of each product in the Evolu Travel Tower:

Nourishing Hand Cream: I already had his product in the full size and love it! My hands love it and feel hydrated and healthy afterwards. It doesn’t make my hands oily and greasy.

Cream Cleaner: I have very sensitive skin so I usually just use Cetaphil cleanser and was nervous to try a new cleansing product on my skin. I was presently surprised as it wasn’t drying and cleansed most of my eye make up off. My skin didn’t turn red and was soft afterwards. Very happy!

Facial Exfoliator: Loved the exfoliator, the beads are small and not to rough, so it’s perfect for sensitive skin. It also didn’t leave my skin dry and tight, which exfoliators normally do to my skin.

Soothing Eye Gel: I never use eye cream so didn’t notice any difference although the gel was very cooling – perfect for early mornings to get rid off puffiness. Perfect to rejuvenate eyes after a long flight or early mornings.

Overnight Cream: This is similar to the day cream although it is thicker, perfect for hydrating skin overnight. Skin woke up hydrated but not oily.

This is brilliant for two reasons - firstly the travel tower is the most convenient way I've ever found to transport all those products you might need when travelling.

Secondly it is an excellent way to try out six different Evolu products, so you know what you need more of.

As for the quality of products, I'm a big Evolu fan. I love the opportunity to use all of these lovely products!

I was super excited to try this product from Evolu, I hadn't heard much about this brand. The packaging is a very cute little stack of pots that screw together. The stack all together is not much bigger then my hand, great compact size for quickly throwing in a toilet bag. I also loved that it came with a spare lid which would come in handy.

Each pot contains 10mls which at first I laughed at, I didnt think there was any way I would be able to properly test out how the product would work with my skin with such little product. However I tried this travel stack for 2 weeks and used it almost everyday. I only ran out of 3 of the 6 products! I gave this travel tower the ultimate test with a weekend away, it was easy to pack away, didn't leak at all and was compact enough to keep in the limited space within a motel bathroom. These pots would be easily refilled and recycled which I absolutely love!

All of the actual product has the typical scent of more natural products. They have a fresh, herbal type of smell. I'm a massive fan of natural products so love that scent. The night cream scent was amazing!

As far as the actual product goes, I fully used just these products for the time I was trialling it with the exemption of my morning moisturiser which is couldnt bring myself to give up. I actually noticed my skin loved the products, I had 2 small hormonal breakouts and I noticed the Evolu products didn't aggrivate these spots and even seemed to help clear up the spots. The cream cleanser was nice, left skin feeling clean but still moisturised. I'm not one for cream cleansers usually but I did like this one. I got about 10 uses out of this pot of cleanser. The exfoliator was one of my favs, gentle and seemed to help with blackheads. I used this every second day and got about 8 uses out of this pot using it quite sparingly. The eye gel was my favourite product out of this stack! It is cooling and soothing in the eye area. Its moisturising and absorbs quickly. There was no horrible stinging like I've had with some eye creams before. This amount of product will last me a long time, a little goes a very long way. The day cream moisturiser I didnt get so much use out of. I only tried it on 2 days that i wasnt wearing make up as I was took scared to try a new product under make up and risk my combo-oily skin not loving it. The night cream was another fav, rich and creamy, was my favourite smelling product. A little goes a long way but I used very liberally and got about 7 uses out of this amount. The handcream was nice, absorbed quickly and moisturised well. I only got 3 uses out of this pot but I use a large amount on my dry hands. This would be the perfect amount to throw in a bag if needed for a little dry hand relief.

Obviously I love these products and would definitely recommend this adorable stack to travelling beauties and to other lovers of natural skincare!

Evolu tower comes with 6 skincare products in little pottles that screw together to form a tower, plus one extra lid so you could split the tower up.

I really liked the concept but not so much the products. The product would last a few days but I think you'd be out of the cleanser pretty quickly. I also had a bit of trouble trying to unscrew the right product. If I was the day cream, I keep unscrewing the ones above it. So I found it a bit fiddly.

The Cleanser: Nice, light perfume but I wasn't impressed with the product. It disappeared into my skin before I could wash it off. It didn't take off mascara.

Exfoliator: This was a nice product and did a good job. Nice soft perfume.

Eye Gel: This was quite cooling and very light. Absorbed very quickly.

Day Cream: Nice light perfume, very light moisturiser, would be good for oily skin I think. Not sure why, but when I went to put my mineral foundation over the top of this, it wasn't a nice experience, I don't quite know how to describe it. It felt odd using the brush, my skin almost hurt and the surface of my skin felt very rough. Not a nice base for makeup.

Night Cream: This again had a very pleasant fragrance and was perhaps my favourite product. Nice and creamy.

Hand Cream: Nice light fragrance and easily absorbed cream. Not a rich emollient though.

I love the idea of the tower and yes it will be very handy for small trips away. I will definitely hang on to it but I would probably fill it with other products.
