Trilogy Everything Balm Review

I had a week of bad luck after I received this product which was good because I got to test it out in lots of situations! I had been in hospital on horrible antibiotics so I had such dry lips & dry patches on my face- using the balm cleared that up in a matter of a couple of days. My nails have also been in bad condition so I applied it to the cuticles and it really nourished them & improved the condition. I also managed to burn myself on a hot tray, I rubbed the balm onto it & it eased the pain straight away & by the next day there was only a tiny bit of redness and no blister at all. I have also had delightful little kittens with their sharp claws scratching me all over as they play fight and the balm helps the scratches to heal up very quickly (and stops the stinging!) I think another great way to use it is to dab a bit on your temples and even a bit on your chest, that way you get to breathe in the gorgeous smell which I find so relaxing. Overall I think this product really lives up to its name, you can use it in so many ways. It is quite hard to get out of the pot but I think because its quite cold at the moment that probably doesn't help, I think in Summer the consistency would be a lot better. I do wish it came with a little spatula to keep it hygienic like they do with Trilogy face creams. It smells gorgeous and has great natural ingredients so it is a must have product for me.

This product does replace many things, for me definitely lip balm, and moisturiser. I've found it really good on extra dry bits like heels and elbows etc. I don't love the smell, it seems quite strong to me. Also the packaging isn't as compact as it could be - they probably could put it in a smaller container so it's more handbag ready. I have used it on my baby since he was 4 months old for massage, and nappy cream - and it's been very good for this.

I took a pot of Everything Balm to my friends in the UK when I visited a few months ago. Everyone loved it, it suits all skin types and is perfect for those people who want a one-pot for everything cream. I keep one at work too for dry hands and you are travelling light for the weekend, this is the perfect moisturiser to take with you.

I was given a pottle of this, which admittedly will last for years! First impressions were that the smell was just too strong for my taste. I put it on my lips, but found It was way too heavily perfumed for my lips and tasted really strong. On the plus it is really moisturising if you have dry elbows or feet. It's too strong for me to use on my hands. I usually love Trilogy products, so was a little disappointed.

**I think had I have read the reviwes about warming it up before use I may have had better results - perhaps I used too much?!?**

I love the Trilogy range, and have used a number of their products. However, I wasn't as taken with this product. It was very oily, and left my skin very oily afterwards.

Even when using as a handcream, my hands were super oily - I had to wash my hands!

I will say though that it did moisturize my skin very well, much better than other products I have used.

This really reminded me of massage balm which i use at work just the smell was overwhelming. Would go great with candles and all that!I used it on my lips and had an oily quality to it..which isn'ta bad thing especially jojoba oil this can be used for anything. It is so natural it can be taken internally, oil is GREAT for lips. It did the trick soft beautiful lips. My partners suffering from really dry skin at the moment too I put it on his dry patches as it definitley made them smoother and over time hed see a great improvement.

The box it came in was beautiful, really eye catching this would make an awesome stocking filler for somebody! The major downside for me is the whole BALM pot...not really the most hygenic method to scoop your fingers in and out of it. Though could just buy a spatula if you were that pranoid about it. Overall it is one of those items I wouldn't go out and religiously buy for myself...just a little bit of luxury given to me by somebody! I was a fan of the smell though I could see it would be overwhelming for some people! :)

I absolutely adore Everything Balm, I keep a small pottle in my handbag and one in my desk drawer at work (it really halps combat the dry skin I get from being in an airconditioned office), I admit I am a bit of a sucker for Triligy products but I find they really work for me.
