Trilogy is arguably NZs most successful local brand and Everything Balm is a big part of that. This product is a really good idea, but ultimately, not something I find myself using very much.
The pros? This product is ethically produced and NZ made, with lots of lovely nurturing ingredients. It is a complete multi-tasker that can be used for everything (should that be Everything?) from lip balm to eyebrow gel.
The cons? Honestly, I find it too sticky to use for anything but a lip balm - and it's a really big pot to carry around for lip balm. I have tried using it as hand cream but it's so heavy and sticky that I find I've washed my hands and removed the product before it has actually sunk in. Maybe the fault is partly my own for not being creative enough with my use of Everything Balm, but for me it's more Big Pot of Lip Balm.
I really like this balm! Its really lovely as a lip balm (tastes nice too), taming eyebrows and a good natural alternative to where you would use vaseline.Its also great for using on a sore nose when you've got a rotten head cold and blow your nose too much- super soothing and moisturising. I like that this is full of natural oils and feel comfortable using this on my super sensitive skin! Only thing is it may not be super hygienic if you are using it in different areas of the body- so something like a spatula or wiping the top layer clean every so often may not be a bad idea!
