I am in my early 30’s and have always suffered from rosacea and dry skin. I was fortunate enough not to suffer from acne until a few years ago. Before this skincare arrived I had been battling with some nasty breakouts on my chin and dry patches on my cheeks. I had stopped using my usual foaming cleanser as it was making my skin feel tight and triggering redness across my cheeks. My moisturiser wasn't giving my skin the hydration it needed. I have always used skincare products from an entire range so I was thrilled to be selected to trial the entire range of the Trilogy Very Gentle Sensitive skincare.
The range consists of six products: a cream cleasner, calming serum, eye cream, moisturiser, mask and restoring oil. The entire range is packaged in beautiful white and soft pink boxes. It gave me the first impression that it was made for delicate skin. Each product has clear instructions on how to use them on the back of the box. All the products are in glass bottles or jars. Which gives the feeling of luxury and adds sophistication to your bathroom.
I noticed that all the products have a use within six months of opening, which is understandable due to the amount of natural ingredients each product contains. There are a number of natural active ingredients that provide noticeable nourishing and calming effects such as Calendula, Aloe Vera, Maqui Berry and Sweet Almond Oil. The Syricalm complex is contained within 5 of the 6 products. This is composed of several extracts such as Phragmites Kharka extract and Poria cocos extract which help to reduce inflammation while repairing and improving the quality of the skin's our natural barrier. The moisturiser also contains Hyaluronic acid and Green Tea extract which are both fantastic for helping with anti-ageing. The ingredients have been very gentle on my sensitive skin and if you are worry about allergic reactions to any ingredients you can see a full list of ingredients that each product contains on the Trilogy website.
Overall I have noticed a great improvement in my skin the past three weeks. It appears much clearer, calmer and hydrated. The Inflamed skin from old pimples have nearly completely healed and my skin appears much stronger and less reactive to environmental conditions.
I have been really impressed by this skincare range. It done what it says and is much more affordable than my last skincare regime. While I am enjoying all the products if I had to pick my favourite it would be the Hydra-mask. It gives serious hydration without being heavy on my skin which is prefect for my skin at the moment. I would love if they added a Very Gently Exfoliator to the range.
First of all thank you BR team for selecting me to trial this beautiful skincare range. I have very dry and sensitive skin which is prone to redness and flaring up but I do not suffer from acne and have clear skin. The trail range included a cream cleanser, restoring oil,calming serum,hydra mask, gentle eye cream and a moisturizing cream. All the items come with beautiful packaging and all the products are in a glass jar or bottle except for the cream cleanser which is plastic. The glass packaging gives it a higher end feel.All the products are natural and aimed at people with sensitive skin. The cream cleanser- It is quite gentle on the skin and leaves the skin feeling soft and hydrated. Personally I prefer foamy cleanser so wasn't a huge fan of this. It does remove makeup however I wouldn't recommend it to remove heavy makeup, its best to use makeup remover prior to using the cleanser for a complete clean look. Than we have the calming serum-I am in love with this serum. One pump is all you need for the face and neck. It absorbs into the skin really well without leaving any greasiness. This serum helped calm my skin so much and helped with the redness around my cheeks and nose area. compared to other serums which I have used this is very affordable and has helped my skin heal so much. Totally in love, this serum is my favorite product out of the whole range. Gentle Eye cream - I found this helped with the dryness around my eyes and did not irritate my eyes. It was easy to apply and I could put on eye makeup straight after. It did improve my skin around the eyes. The moisturizing cream- This is a rich moisturizer perfect for dry and irritated skin. I found it absorbed into the skin really well and helped Improve my skin texture. The only drawback is that it does not contain any SPF. The hydra mask-A nice rich leave in mask which leaves the skin perfectly hydrated and super smooth. I left it on for 15 mins and wiped off the excess with a warm face cloth. Perfect to use this 2-3 times a week to give your skin the extra boost. The restoring oil- My least favorite product out of the whole range. I found the oil to be too greasy for my dry skin. It did not absorb very well and I did not like the oily sheen it left. I found it to be a bit to heavy for me and I couldn't see any visible effect on my fine lines. Overall I liked this trilogy gentle skincare range most of the products did what they said it will and I love the fact that all were natural and fragrance free and worked wonders for my redness and dry skin. After using it for 3 weeks I can really see that my skin texture has improved so much. My skin is more soft and doesn't look as dry or raw as before. I also like the fact that they all have their own little scoops which is very hygienic. The only negative is that non of the products contained SPF. Best suited for people with dry and sensitive skin. Will repurchase most of the products.
Tips: Use the products sparingly as a little goes a long way and you do get good value for your money. Apply any excess product on your hands or feet and use it on any troubled areas on your skin.
