Trilogy Age Proof Active Enzyme Cleansing Cream

This is a really nice cleanser and certainly a step up in effectiveness from their plain Cream Cleanser. My face did feel smoother after using this, but don't expect results overnight. I double cleanse as I don't think this would be an effective makeup removing cleanser and it's too pricey for that. I ended up switching to their balancing gel cleanser to get more results on tiny closed comedones, but when my skin is good this is great.

I kept this in my shower shelf, and water did somehow seep in through the pump diluting the last 1/3 of the product so I would avoid that if possible.

I hadn't used any Trilogy products before trying this cleanser. I imagine it's because of the natural ingredients that the scent is somewhat 'organic' (ie a bit musty smelling). The cleanser is quite thin compared to what I have been using, but it spread very well and lathers up without needing much water - in fact I had to make sure that I didn't use too much (need less than my usual brand) which means the tube would probably last for quite some time, so great value on that score. I've only been using it 5 days so haven't seen any great change to my skin, but being on the sensitive side I am pleased to say it hasn't made it react at all which I'd been a little worried about. Would consider buying again but just wish they could make it smell a little more appealing.

I hadn't tried any Trilogy products before picking this up in the Beauty Vault, but I had heard fantastic things so was excited to give this cleanser a go.

I have oily, acne-prone skin and after passing another birthday have become a lot more focused on anti-aging skincare. I love how simple and classy the packaging for this is, very simple but functional. I'm a big fan of squeeze tubes for cleansers since it's easier to get the perfect amount out.

The formula itself is a light cream with a slight fruity fragrance that smells really nice. It claims to remove makeup but I found that it wasn't effective at removing all my makeup alone, so I prefer to use it after cleansing. I find it does give a nice enough clean, and my skin did feel soft afterwards but not particularly exfolliated. So far after a month of use I haven't noticed my skin looking any brighter or smoother.

This is a nice enough cleanser and I enjoy using it, but for the price I think there's other cleansers available that I'd prefer so I probably wouldn't repurchase it myself.

My

I was lucky enough to get chosen to trial this product. It is in an easy squeeze tube. Has a rich, creamy texture and spreads quite easily. I was able to spread the cream evenly over my face. Did not really lather up. I did not quite like the idea of using a face cloth to wash it off. The smell was not refreshing so did take a bit of getting used to. Once washed off ,my face felt clean and smoother.

I did find that by the end of the day my face felt a bit oilier than usual. I have only been using the product for about 5 days so maybe after longer use your skin adjusts.

I like the product but not sure that It would be on my fav list.

Firstly, before I review this product, I need to say that I am 21, and have fine lines and wrinkles which is why I decided to purchase this product, and try improving these aging signs before they got too severe. My skin is combination dry and I love Trilogy as a brand, and so they were my first choice for aging products and the Trilogy Age Proof Active Enzyme Cleansing Cream had great reviews, so I thought there must be something special about this product.

Firstly, I love love love the packaging of this product. It comes is a grey tube, that has beautiful matte silver writing on it. It is so classy and elegant, and I think it is symbolic of the aging process being a classy time, not just a time when you get grey hair. I could be completely wrong though, but I really do like the packing. Plus, the tube is easy to use, and releases a small amount of product so minimal wastage. Also, I have never had any leaking from the product so think it is an efficient design.

The product smells natural, and almost organic. It is a whitish colour, and a thick consistency. Its easy to massage into your face, and does not lather, which is why I though this product would be great for my dry combination skin. It seems to remove most make-up and impurities, but I don’t actually use it on my eye-makeup as I use a product specifically for this area (especially as I use waterproof makeup) .

After using this product, my skin does look fresh, but I wouldn’t say brightened. I also haven’t noticed any changes to my fine lines and wrinkles, but this could be because this product does not actually mention that it will improve the appearance of these aspects, I just foolishly assumed it would. This product also left my face feeling slightly tight, so I have to follow with a rich moisturizer afterward.

I won’t be repurchasing this product, it’s not a great match for dry combination skin, and I understand my skin is younger so maybe not the market this product was intended for, but I did hope to see some alterations in the aging areas of my face. Perhaps when my skin matures more, I will have a more positive experience with this product, and can adjust me review then.

I've used quite a lot of trilogy products, and have been impressed- so I was hoping I'd love this cleansing cream too.

Trilogy products appeal to me, as they are a New Zealand brand, with a focus on natural ingredients. Having dry, sensitive skin that reacts to some harsher products I try to go for a more natural route in my skincare regime now.

This packaging is sleek and stylish, in its silver grey tube, with flipcap. It's elegant and luxurious, which is distinctive of the trilogy brand.

The formula is creamy and quite thick. I use a small amount to massage over my face. The scent is appealing, and smells of a mixture of natural ingredients -hints of fruit and other lovely smelling things.

The formula cleanses my face okay, but not as good as other cleansers I use. With this formula a separate eye makeup remover is needed, as my mascara didn't seem to budge using this. In my opinion, I prefer to have a product that cleanses my face, as well as removing eye makeup remover.

In terms of brightening my complexion, it didn't do this for me. The formula was slightly to rich for my dry, slightly sensitive face. It started to flare up a small patch of eczema I have. So, this cleanser may not be the best for sensitive skinned ladies, like me.

I really wanted to love this product, like I do with other trilogy products in my possession. However, I have tried better cleansers, that are much more suited to my skin type. So, I won't BR repurchasing this.
