Trilogy Everything Balm Review

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 have tried a few multi purpose balms over the years because they are such a great idea.

The Trilogy one reminds me in texture of a lip balm, but can be used for so much more. I have used it as a lip balm, a soother for cry and cracked skin and on my nails even.

It does help sooth or moisturize the affected area and being a multi purpose balm - the issues can be quite diverse.

The scent is quite natural and reflects the ingredients in it. And it lasts quite a while.

I was brought this as a gift as it is amazing. It’s so versatile I keep it in my car and use it as a lip balm and for my dry hands, have even used it on dry spots on my face. It goes on smoothly and absorbs well and the small packaging makes it perfect to take with you. Very mild scent. I have continued to buy the product and would recommend to all.

I have been using this for a few days now, initially feels quite greasy but soon soaks into the skin nicely. Smells great and I have been using it on my lips, face and hands and feet, so versatile!

I love the packaging the product came in a handy container that is light weight that I can store in my handbag. I used this first on my lips with great results. It has a pleasant smell. On the second day I decided to use it on my dry forehead this didn't work so well as in my forehead was all shiny for the day, it didn't appear to sink in at all. On the third day I used it on my elbows and this worked really well. So I would definitely use this product again for dry skin and dry lips.

Over the course of the last year, I've begun to realize that with many things, especially skin care, less is definitely more. I was really excited to try this as at the moment I am on the lustful hunt for a new face cream that is way more natural and easily absorbed. The trilogy balm is great great great for lips and hands, and leaving it on your face overnight does give your skin a bit of a healthier glow in the mornings. It reduced some of my redness as well from blemishes (which is always a plus). It smells absolutely fantastic - I don't want to just slather it on my face, I want to take a bath in it! (now if only it were a shower cream!) The only downside to the product is in its packaging - it was pretty difficult (for me at least) to get out enough of the balm as the product itself remains quite hard. This meant that application of the product took quite some time! Would be much better placed in some kind of squeeze out packaging. Regardless, a wonderfully smelling and workable product that has the potential to be an absolute essential in my life :)
