Trilogy Everything Balm Review

After many months, and I now have two of these, I regard this product as a bit of a holy grail, but also a bit of what do I do with this?? Trilogy is a lovely brand, and local - two great things. This Everything Balm, has a nice fragrance and a good shelf life, which is lucky, cause I use it sparingly and no other member is allowed free reign - 'Oh you have chapped lips, then sure, I will watch over you as you are allowed access to a small amount of this product and then the lid goes on and the product disappears from your sight'. So, for lips - its great, but then I get confused.

What do you mean "EVERYTHING"?? I've tried on my hair, but this is a bit tricky to get the right application. Lip balm - brilliant. Dry skin - including my heels, it is good!

It is nice to have something in my hand bag that I can pull out for those requests from family.

I use the back of a nail to get the product out, I hate product being wasted under a nail!

As soon as I run out of my current cuticle balm, I'll be applying this balm.

This cute little tin is very compact and ideal for travel or in your handbag. The balm inside smells a wee bit citrus and a wee bit flowery. A little goes a long way and absorbs rapidly. My pot has lasted for ever ...it seems! I have used it as a lip salve, a hand moisturiser and well ...anywhere that needs a little moisturiser. The warmth of your fingers helps the balm to soften immediately Making it very easy to apply.

And got it in a free gift promo (thanks Trilogy!).

It has an interesting but not unpleasant smell, and it's fairly solid so you have to apply some pressure to get it out of the tin.

But. It spreads easily and a little goes a long way. I have used it (in summer when it was warmer) on my knees, elbows, knuckles, and decolletage before bed. I also use it on my underarms and it seems to help prevent ingrown hairs after shaving. It's quite moisturising as the super dry scaly skin on my knuckles went away after a few days, but it doesn't leave you feeling greasy.

It's also really gentle, I've had no adverse reactions after using this. So really pleased with this product.

I bought the little 18ml version of this product in a Trilogy gift set that was on sale. It is a product that I have wanted to try for a long time, so it was great to be able to sample a miniature edition first. I bought the gift set about 6 months ago and the balm is still going - a little goes a long way!

This balm comes in a flat tin with a screw on lid. The balm sits inside, and you can apply it with your fingers. It recommends to warm it first, which you can do with your hands. It has a very pleasant, floral smell, and the balm itself is cream coloured.

I have used it mainly to rub into my cuticles before I go to sleep as I get very dry skin around my nails. I have also used it to rub on abrasions on my body, and it has assisted in the healing of those.

This product lasts such a long time, and feels so soothing on the skin, that I can see why it has such an amazing reputation.

I'm in love with Trilogy products. The basics - They're affordable, They're available, They WORK and How gorgeous is the tin?? After buying some other skin care products at my local Antidote pharmacy last year, my lovely pharmacist (who knows my skin type & condition very well), gave me a wee trial/tester tin of the Trilogy Everything Balm to try out on my ever challenging skin & to let him know what I thought of it. The tin was 25ml from memory (I now use the 45ml size as I like the smaller tin for quick pocket occasions & my handbag). I firstly tried it out at night time on my forehead, along my hairline & above my brows which are the driest parts of my face. However, I found it gave me a week bit of a sting, and I became redder quite fast. Now that area is my most sensitive skin on my body, so I always tend to try it here first, might seem silly, but I'm always prepared to try ANYTHING to help this zone. I soon tried Trilogy's Rosehip Oil which worked magically on this area. So after testing out my worst area, I decided to venture into other regions. It was a great repairing lip balm on sore & wind chapped lips, just remember in summer time that this is not an SPF product, but an oil so be cautious wearing it in direct sunlight. I ventured onwards with my testing & began applying it to my dry knuckles & between my fingers as I wash my hands regularly & get quite dry skin on my hands - Works a treat. I eventually realised I could also use this on my cuticles, personally I think this is the best use for the Everything Balm, fantastic soft cuticles after about a week of use, less visible & never painful from irregular growth. Yay! I bought a larger sized tin originally when I used this one up (95ml) & then discovered the smaller one & simply had to have that too. However, then I thought - what a great idea to pop in my travel bathroom products bag for trips away. It's compact, it won't leak like a moisturizer would - Unless it gets too warm. I can comfortably use the balm on all other areas on my body, other than my sensitive patches on my face. Brilliant for dry elbows, knees & heels. I rate the Trilogy Everything Balm a solid 9.5, it's an all-round product with so many uses. It smells pleasant, as I've said above it's beautifully packaged, convenient & compact size for easy travel & made with excellent nourishing products from a reliable brand. You may find this product on the shelf at your pharmacy & originally feel it might be a little pricey for the size, but due to it being a solidified oil - it goes a really long way as it melts against the skin. I bought my 45ml tin in December & easily still have enough for another month or so (we're currently at the beginning of July). So with that in mind, I feel that it's actually a very reasonably priced product. A must buy beauty product, specifically if you have really dry areas you want to target or to treat those tired cuticles. Way to go Trilogy, never a disappointment with your goodies xx

I think I've had my tin of Trilogy Everything Balm forever. I use it on everything and like to take it when travelling for face, body, cuts, night cream when camping, hair shine...I could go on but you get the drift. Everyone should have a tin in their handbag or car.

This was the first product I had used that could be used for multiple purposes. This is great as a handcream, for itchy bites and for massages. Didn't like using it for lipbalm or foot cream.

I think the tins are cute ( I have both the big and small tins). Smell is herbal, it's okay not my favourite scent. I like the idea of a multi purpose product. I picked mine up in an online sale. I like it enough, would probably repurchase if it was on sale.

I initially brought this product as a hand and cuticle cream as recommended by a friend. From constant hand washing my skin was cracked and dry in places and my cuticles were splitting.

By applying a small amount and warming it up in my hands I found it to go along way and it left my skin feeling nourished. Unfortunately I am not a huge fan of the scent. I found it to be too strong for my liking.

After using this product for over a week I noticed that my skin had improved a lot. The cracks in my hands had disappeared and the cuticles had improved a lot and were not as cracked.

I also found this product was very helpful when I recently had a cold and my nostrils and below my nose were dry and peeling. Using this for a couple of days helped to improve it and completely heal it up.

This works adequately as a lip balm and is somewhat useful as a salve on other spots though I don't think it would be my go to for most things. It feels great on the cuticles and the lips (unless you've got serious chapping, in which case I recommend Carmex!). Makes lips look great too, works as a gloss. I'd buy again purely because its quite a good deal for what it is!

I find the scent subtle and slightly citrus The consistency is hydrating and not too oily I had used this for dry lips- dry patches on my face and body- will daily application i have noticed an improvement with the dryness This balm stays in my bag so I have it on the go when i need it

Triology is a nz brand that is cruelty free, this is the type of company i like to buy and support- quality is assured from this brand
