I trialled this Trilogy Very Gentle Cleansing Cream as part of the Trilogy Sensitive skincare range. It took me a few days to get use to the ointment smell of the cleanser but it feels so delicious on my skin that the scent is quickly forgotten. I haven’t used many cream cleanser before so this made a nice change. The glass bottle is a very generous 200mls in size which I think will last a while even when using it twice a day.
I found the cleanser quite rich but without being too heavy. A little goes a long way so half a pump is enough for my entire face. I use the cleanser by firstly splashing some warm water on my face then massaging the cleanser in. I have to be quick as my skin likes to absorb it. I then rinse it off with warm water.
This cleanser has been very gentle on my fragile skin while still giving a deep clean. It removes all of my make-up (foundation and light eye make-up) and other impurities without feeling like its stripping all the natural oils and goodness away. There was no tightness or stinging after use and my skin felt quite hydrated like it had already been moisturised. I believed this is mainly due to the cleanser containing fatty acids.
I would definitely recommend and repurchase this cleanser it is so gentle and does a good job at removing make-up too.
I trialed the 'Very Gentle Cleansing Cream' over the past three weeks I have dry, sensitive, acne prone and a small amount of redness of my cheeks and nose. The packaging of this product is in a white cardboard box which is recyclable, with a light apricot/pink colour on the top of the box. It states on the box 'Sensitive' and lists the active ingredients 'maqui berry, SyriCalm and camellia.' I really like how on the box it shows that the product is certified by BioGro as a natural cosmetic, that is really important to backup that big statement.
The product comes in a very generous 200ml amber glass bottle, which has a push pump dispenser. I love the feel of this bottle, it is gorgeous looking, a bit of luxury added onto my bathroom counter. The cream inside, is creamy easy to lather onto my skin and almost a 'silky smooth' texture. Half a pump of this is sufficient to cleanse my entire face and neck. It is fragrance free so it is safe around my eye area to really cleanse off any residue make-up that is left, which I really like as it is powerful enough for that purpose. It really does leave my skin feeling clean, nourished and refreshed as it claims. I don't know how they did it but it leaves my face feeling hydrated, whenever I use cleansers my face feels tight and like all the moisture has been stripped away with this my skin is nourished.
On the box it suggests to gently massage onto damp face, neck and decolletage. Rinse with water and pat dry and use twice daily. I have been religiously following that suggestion and my skin has completely changed, less redness, less acne and dry patches, clean and refreshed skin. I am so impressed and happy with this cleanser even enough to say this is my favourite product out of their entire sensitive range.
The price point $46.99 for 200ml, it is so worth each and every dollar. The luxury glass amber bottle is gorgeous, the dispenser works great, and the product works amazing for me. I will continue to use this and reap all the benefits from it. I am sure of it! I would think this would last me anywhere from 4-6 months using twice daily.
I am so going to repurchase this, and suggest everyone purchases and tries it for themselves. Perfect for sensitive skinned people, acne prone, people who feel tightness or dryness with regular cleansers, it is a total game changer.
