I was thrilled to receive this night cream in the Best Beauty Box Ever. I'd heard of Trilogy and had been hankering after using their products for a while, but cost put me off. $65 for a small tub of night cream seems quite high - but then I tried it - and fell in love.
Firstly, the packaging is simple but elegant. I love how sturdy the jar is and the slightly frosted finish to the glass. The lotion itself is rich and creamy, but goes on smoothly and 'sinks' into the skin effortlessly. It never felt greasy, and when I woke in the morning, my skin still felt hydrated. I didn't want to wash my face because my skin still felt so good!
For the cost-conscious like me - this is one of those products that is definitely worth paying that little bit extra for. I'm a convert.
I received a deluxe mini of this in one of Trilogy's many GWP promotions. It was a generous 25 ml and it has lasted me weeks. It is the same packaging as the full size, in a glass jar with a screw top lid.
It is a thick, white cream with the signature Trilogy scent (which I love but still can't quite put my finger on what it is). You don't need much of this, just a pea size amount. It is easy to apply if you warm it by rubbing your hands together then massage it into your face with upwards strokes.
It absorbs easily but a little still sits on top of the skin, as a good night cream should do. In the morning it has fully absorbed and my skin feels soft, smooth and supple. I usually apply a few drops of Trilogy rosehip oil before apply this to give it an extra boost. This makes for an amazing combination!
It is pricey, but it is so lovely and luxurious to use I would consider buying it again, if I could get it as part of a GWP.
Tips: Trilogy has just reformulated the Age Proof range so many places are doing a 3 for 2 offer. Hopefully the reformulated range will be just as lovely, if not more so.
