Trilogy Vital Moisturising Cream Review

I loved receiving this in my beauty box because I have always heard good things about Trilogy but cant afford it, and it lived up to its reputation! It smells so fresh and nourishing and it soaks into skin very quickly, leaving your skin feeling soft and lovely. Highly recommended and it definately showed me that it is worth paying more for quality

I squeaked a bit with excitement when I opened my amazing Beauty Review March Beauty Box and saw this Trilogy tube nestled within. I've long wanted to try Trilogy face products but haven't been able to justify the pricetag just in case they don't work for me.

This is the Vital Moisturising Cream, which came in a tasteful 50ml tube with a gorgeous brushed silver lid, and burgundy and black writing on a creamy background with a hint of pink to it. It looks lush and expensive just from the packaging alone!

The cream itself is thick and white, with a (very typical of Trilogy) botanical scent that is not overpowering , but pleasant and relaxing.

The cream spreads well - a pea sized amount will do your whole face - and is very rich and nourishing. Because of this, it can take a while to settle in, and so I choose to use it as a night cream and use a lighter one in the mornings.

I wake now to luscious, hydrated skin that feels plumped up and full of moisture, but not at all greasy. I haven't broken out once since I began using this.

My 'would I buy this again' is tricky here. It's too expensive for me, realistically, even though it's lovely. Duty Free, perhaps - we'll see how we go. I'd definitely consider it as it is seriously good.

I used this moisturiser in conjunction with the Trilogy facial cleanser when I was in my early 20's and still getting hormonal facial breakouts quite frequently. I noticed a big change in my skin, feeling moisturised, but not too oily, and I seemed to have less breakouts. However, this particular moisturiser is not my favourite that I have used before. I didn't love the smell; (it wasn't yuck, but it reminded me of castor oil or something). The consistency was kind of watery and left my skin feeling quite damp almost like it wasn't really soaking in. I did get good results, but I can't be sure whether this moisturiser made the difference, or if it was the cleanser. I just didn't really enjoy the way it felt on my skin or the smell, so I won't use it again, especially since my skin has aged since then. I feel that this would suit somebody in their mid to late teens with quite dry skin.

I tried this moisturiser after receiving it in my Beauty Box. I'm very picky about what moisturiser and foundations I put on my combination/ oily skin but was happy to try this since it is meant to be suitable for all skin types.

The packaging is a simple with grey font, a solid line of pink and a silver/grey screw on lid.

The moisturiser is thick and creamy to the touch and smells deliciously like orange. Once applied to the skin it absorbs well but also left a bit of a layer on my skin. Since it is heavy, I used it at night and found it to be really hydrating and left my skin feeling soft, well nourished and smoothed of any lines. Unfortunately my T-zone was also very oily and I started breaking out all over my forehead (which is unusual for me). I have since passed the rest of the tube onto a friend to try.

Trilogy is well known for their excellence in Rosehip oil and skincare products. When I saw that it was in our Beauty Box I was excited and overwhelmed with excitement to use a Trilogy product.

This Trilogy moisturising cream comes in a 50 ml Tube that sits on itself. It has a silver lid to screw on and off. This white, red and silver being their main branding colours. To get product out , simply squeeze this bottle gently disperse cream.

The consistency of this cream is a normal cream thickness. On this bottle it says the cream has Rosapene marula and Orange flower. The scent of this cream is like roses and oranges. It smells quite strong but nice. This cream feels like my dry skin is soaking this cream up well.

My results from using this cream is hydrated smooth skin. With daily use I still have product remaining in my bottle. I love that its made in New Zealand. I'd love to try more products from Trilogy. I'vd enjoyed using this product.

We all need a good facial moisturiser containing lovely natural ingredients and that is what this is, although I would say that it's somewhat of a luxury product considering the price. The packaging also has a luxury, quality & sophisticated look and feel to it, the tube stands on it's aluminium screw-top and the product dispenses steadily with ease.

The consistency of the cream is ideal, works into the skin very smoothly, absorbs quickly, and is very hydrating. It feels light-weight on the skin and leaves it looking and feeling dewy- smooth. The scent however, I'm not a fan of. It's a very strong fragrant rose scent which I find is similar to some of the Essano products.

As much as i'm enjoying this product I can't justify the price. It's a beautiful product to use despite my personal disliking of the scent, but it just seems like too much money for me for not a lot of product.

I received this is my March Beauty Box, I have been using for the past week. I love it but it reminds me of tea tree oil/nit shampoo. I personally don't like that smell. My skin is extremely dry at the moment from flying and this adds the hydration that I need. I love it but I probably wouldn't purchase myself.

I received this in my beauty box in March. I've been using it for the last two weeks now and I've found it works really well. It does what it's meant to and leaves my face feeling really smooth and moisturised. I'm a bit unsure about the scent though as much as I love the scent (it smells so delicious!) I find it a bit to over powering for a face mousturizer. I would buy this exact same one without the scent so I plan on having a look and seeing if they have one available.

$49.90? Surely that is far too much to pay for a good skin care product. I have always found the prices to be far too ridiculous for the product on offer. I have never really been a fan of many Trilogy products except the rosehip oil and this is not a winner either. Firstly the smell...did it have to be so highly perfumed and in your face?!

I found the texture pleasant enough. Creamy and quite velvety to glide on to my skin. After three weeks I would have expected a slight change at least. I waited in vain, I saw nothing. My skin is still dry, red and flaky. My skin actually broke out quite bad after five days of continuous use. I haven't had such bad breakouts since i was a teenager. The only thing I did different in my regime was use Trilogy Vital Moisturising Cream. I expected my skin to just drink this in and become softer even but nothing.

I will continue to use it in case my skin and I change our mind on it but as it stands it's a huge no go for me. For the huge price I expected a big impact on my skin. I expected to like it. I guess it goes to show that a big price tag doesn't always mean quality.

I was thrilled to receive this in the March beauty box - because I seriously do NOT have $50 to spend on a face cream!! That is the only reason why I would not buy it, that's far too expensive.

In saying that, I do like this cream but dont love it. I love the smell - I'm a huge fan of natural products. It also feels really nice on my skin. The cream isn't too thick or heavy, it's in the middle so it's not too light either. I found it absorbs REALLY fast, it almost feels like I need to add more but my skin doesn't feel like it needs more.

Who knows if it helps protects the signs of ageing? I guess I would need to use this product for a long time to actually prove that claim, but for now I haven't noticed any difference.
