Divine smell

This Trilogy exfoliator does everything it said it would. You can feel the exfoliant spheres working against your skin, yet it's gentle. I love how it leaves my skin feeling smooth, soft & clean. A little goes a long way, but if I over-squirt I use the excess on my decolletage or upper arms.

Tips: Use in the shower a couple of times a week

My new Go-to Exfoliator

I love Trilogy products, and this Gentle Facial Exfoliant is ticking all the boxes on first try. It comes in an easy open flip top tube, and is great to use in the shower. The jojoba microspheres work brilliantly to exfoliate, leaving my skin feeling fresh and energized.

A little goes a very long way, and it works best on dampened skin. With my sensitive skin, I use gentle circular movements on my cheeks, a slightly firmer movements on the rest of my face, which ensures I don't end up feeling over-exfoliated.

Tips: I like to use before washing my hair, so any exfoliant that's worked its way up into my hairline gets washed out. The added benefit is my hairline gets exfoliated too.

As it's a plastic tube, and with all soft tubes, I now cut the bottom off when I can't squeeze any more out, and find there's a lot of product left in the tube. This is a cost-saver in the long run.

Lovely gentle exfoliation that delivers results

When I first picked this up, it was mainly because Trilogy had a gift with purchase promotion on and, being the sucker for a good GWP that I am, wanted it. I'm usually into quite rough scrubs, because I tend to get a few blackheads which annoy me no end, so using this was quite a change from what I was used to. I didn't initially enjoy using it as much as rougher scrubs, but the results were enough to sway me. Because I tend to dry out easily, and most blackhead scrubs make my face feel tighter than bike pants on Santa Claus, my face is always a bit red if I go too hard on the scrubbing. After using this, it was definitely not red, not tight, and my skin did feel lovely and refreshed. I didn't repurchase because it is a little expensive for a student, but it has encouraged me to use much gentler exfoliants (save from a good, intense scrub every now and again). I would recommend it for most skin types, but it won't do much for those with blackheads because it isn't intense enough to really slough them off.

Tips: Cleanse thoroughly before using (I like to do it in the shower because the steam helps loosen everything off). Because it is gentle exfoliation, it'll work best if it doesn't have to penetrate through makeup and surface dirt before actually helping exfoliate the skin.

Excellent exfoliator

Packet is basic and quite plain, and a very faint and I mean faint pale pink tube with a grey flip top lid, the product within is sealed behind a wee bit off foil. This exfoliant is slightly off white boarder line pale pink and has a soft waxy feel to it and loaded with lots of wee jojoba microspheres, so the exfoliation job the wee beads do is really good this is gentle yet effective, not harsh but does a really good job of removing dead skin cells gently. Fragrance is calendula (marigold) so a bitter sweet scent nearly a tiny bit minty. This I found to be very moisturising and if it didn't foam ever so slightly I would have thought I was using a cream. This rinses off nicely no wee beads left on my skin but I nearly feel like I have a very light film of wax left on my face, but a good rinse with a warm face cloth fixes that. So my skin is left glowing and smoother and softer, the more I use this the better my skin look. This is an awesome exfoliator.

Trilogy Gentle Face Exfoliant

This is my go to exfoliant. It doesn't dry out or irritate my skin but still gives a good deep scrub. It is gentle enough to use more often than once a week. It leaves your skin feeling amazing. The scent (if there is meant to be one) is not really detectable. I personally think a scent would be a nice addition.

Tips: This product has a short shelf life if you look at the packaging. You actually couldn't use it up within the time frame if you used it as directed!

Beautiful

I really love this exfoliant, as far as gentle goes though, compared to other "gentle" exfoliants on the market, this one has a good scrub to it and gives a deep clean but is not harsh on the skin.

I love the smell of this product, but then again I love the smell of most of the Triology range. It has a pleasant flowery/citrus smell to it.

It has an amazing range of ingredients in it, love the essential oils and of course all natural :)

It leaves my skin feeling soft, smooth and buffed and gets rid of any bumpiness and flakiness.

I use 2-3 times a week, now that winter is coming will be 3 times a week as my skin drys out chronically in winter.

Definitely will be purchasing again, my new little fave :)

Very Gentle

I picked this up in a previous vault after seeing the great reviews. I love a good exfolliant and Trilogy has such nice products, I was excited to give it a try.

It comes packaged in a large white plastic squeeze tube, which is perfect for dispensing the small amount of product you need. I love how simple the packaging is, fitting well with Trilogy's more natural products and letting the product speak for itself.

It's a really creamy exfolliant, at first glance you'd assume it's a cream facial wash. It's off-white in colour and has a faint, unobtrusive natural scent of calendula. I apply a little bit of this with warm water and you get a slight bit of foaming which helps it disperse. The tiny exfolliating granules are very gentle and as you massage it into your skin you can feel it buffing away that dead skin. Afterwards my face feels soft and I love how if I use this at night, the following morning my skin looks clearer.

My only complaint? I balked when I saw the price tag and I personally couldn't justify spending that much on a facial scrub alone as there are many other scrubs that do a similar job out there for less. It is priced on par with my favourite scrub Oasis Tropical Smoothie, but that you can use as a mask which allows me to justify the expense to myself! I would however recommend it to others if they don't mind the expense as it is a really nice product.

Great gentle exfoliator

I love Trilogy products because they are all natural. This is a great exfoliator to use regularly because it is gentle on the skin. Because it is so gentle it does sometimes feel like it isn't working as quickly as other more harsh exfoliators, but is it! And it is moisturising on the skin too.

Tips: Clean out the lid and tube hole regularly to avoid it blocking up and drying out.

A Beautiful Product

The Trilogy Gentle Face Exfoliant is a really lovely product which I have been really enjoying using. I generally try to use a scrub 2-3 times per week, and this one has been a lovely addition to my routine. The packaging is simple and classy, like all Trilogy products. The exfoliant has a smooth, cream texture, with extremely fine jojoba spheres which feel more like soft sand than your typical scrub. The scent is beautiful, very rose-like and pretty, and once washed off the Trilogy Gentle Face Exfoliant leaves your skin soft and smooth. My only complaint is the price, but for the quality I would recommend it for someone willing to spend a bit more on skincare.
