Trilogy Very Gentle Eye Cream Review

This product is a lovely addition to the Very Gentle Sensitive range. The packaging is again, gorgeous and I adore the little black plastic applicators that come with it, no chance of introducing any bugs from fingers! The consistency is thicker than I had expected and I had to restrain myself from overindulging. I find it works better for me at night, either after my nightly routine or I apply an extra dab when I apply the mask weekly. Its rich, hydrating, soothing and yet gentle and cooling. A little amount goes a long way and I feel this product will last ages.

Being of a reasonably mature age (slightly over 50) eye creams have become a firm fixture in my arsenal. Not all eye creams work well with my sensitive skin. This one, however, comes up with the goods.

It’s a pale yellow cream, in a 25ml pot. Contains maqui berry, aloe vera, SyriCalm, amongst other natural ingredients. Definitely no adverse reactions.

I used twice daily, a little dab of cream on each eye. This is one of my favourites in the range. A light consistency that doesn’t feel like it drags on the skin, soaks in quickly when gently patted on from outer eye to inner eye, feels cool & reduced some slight puffiness I had one morning. Fine lines are noticeably smoothing out around my eyes so this one's a keeper!

I have inherited really dark eye circles, so even when I am sleeping really well, and drinking loads of water they are usually still lingering. So I was super happy to see this arrive!! As with all the trilogy products the packaging is adorable, in the little glass jar, The formula its self is really velvety and rich yet not super heavy which means it absorbed fast which meant when applying my makeup my under eye concealer sat really nicely on top of the cream and didn't go patchy when blended. As far as under eyes go, It didn't travel and sting my eyes after applying which has happened in the past with other brands and can make for a very uncomfortable day. I felt like the formula was almost cooling so i felt less puffy and more awake when using it, It also did a great job of reducing the dark circles under my eyes which can be a great challenge. As far as fine lines, only time will tell. But overall this little tub will last quite some time as I only need to use a tiny bit at a time, but will be def be repurchasing !!

Ok I admit it, this is the first item I tried from the Trilogy Sensitive range, and I love it! At 25 ml's this is a good size, I like the glass jar, but I don't Love it, maybe a small pump type applicator or tube would be better, all this glass can get heavy, (if you are a traveller, your toiletries bag would be super weighty!!) The texture is that of a light lotion and this is not rich and heavy at all. This absorbs quickly into the skin, and it is a light non greasy eye cream, to be honest, this performs at the same level of some higher end eye creams I have used. I use this before my daily moisturiser, and it helps create a smooth base for eye makeup. Eyes and surrounding areas feel smooth and calmed and lightly hydrated, I like this cream so much, I have used it a a light facial moisturiser, and that works really well too. I have found you can use this morning and night, without over moisturising and no greasy eyelids yet. True to Trilogy form this has no scent, and feels really calming when used, this is in the goldilocks zone I feel this is "just right". A must to try if you are in need of a new eye cream, however this has no anti ageing properties whatsoever (would be nice if it did though), and again no SPF.

I have been trialling this skincare system for 3 weeks. I am 43 years old with oily skin and have always looked after my skin with quality skincare products. I'm loving this eye cream for it's gentleness. I worked at a computer all day with long hours and find this is very soothing for tired eyes. The packaging is extremely generous and will take a long time to use up. It comes with a spatula to keep the product hygienic which is very important for products around the eyes. I love the brown frosted glass, it looks lovely in any bathroom cabinet. I definitely think this product does what it claims - soothes tired eyes!

I used the eye cream as part of the whole Trilogy Sensitive Rang review. The eye cream comes in a small pot with a little spatula which you can use to transfer the product out of the pot. I preferred to just use my finger tips. I was really surprised at how rich and creamy this eye cream was compared to other eye creams I've used. The texture was more like a moisturiser. It is so gentle and fragrance free. I had no problems using the cream around the eye areas. My eyes are sensitive and I've had adverse effects with some creams. I love this cream and would definitely buy it again and recommend it for all skin types, you don't need to have sensitive skin to use this cream.

This eye cream is so cooling and soothing, I just love using it every morning and night. As with the other products in this range, it comes in the most beautiful wee amber glass jar with cute pink label and a little of the product goes a long way. Eye creams are one of the hardest products to buy for me as my eye area is so much sensitive and will often puff up from reactions to certain creams. A few dots of this eye cream applied to just below the eye socket and just above the brow bone and patted gently into the skin using your ring finger is all you need to soothe and calm the eye area, allowing gravity to take effect, and it helps remove puffiness and my dark circles and redness around my eyes seems to have decreased also since using! Sometimes I must admit have snuck a little on during the day to instantly refresh my eyes. As eye creams do it comes in a smaller 25ml jar and says it will "smooth and calm sensitive skin" and it does. Some of the key ingredients are maqui berry, SyriCalm and aloe vera. I can really feel the aloe vera when I apply it as it is very cooling and soothing. Syricalm is a soothing botanical complex used in the treatment of stressed and sensitive skin, relieving itching, reducing redness and improving the quality of the skins barrier function. It has a nice, natural, barely there smell much the same as the other products in the range. It says it is a certified natural lightweight cream, fragrance free, dermatologically tested, no animal testing and non GMO. I really love it and will continue to use it as part of my daily skin care regime as I really feel it is helping my skin and I just love the way it makes my skin feel! It's very luxurious.

I trialed the 'Very Gentle Eye Cream' over the past three weeks I have dry, sensitive, acne prone and a small amount of redness of my cheeks and nose. The packaging of this product is in a white cardboard box which is recyclable, with a light apricot/pink colour on the top of the box. It states on the box 'Sensitive' and lists the active ingredients 'maqui berry, SyriCalm and aloe vera.' I really like how on the box it shows that the product is certified by BioGro as a natural cosmetic, that is really important to backup that big statement.

The product comes in a gorgeous 25ml amber glass jar with a black screw top lid. It also comes with a small curved shaped spatula to scoop the product out which is great to decrease the mount of germs and cross contamination, I also use the spatula to apply to cream to my under eye area and it is the perfect shape. 25ml is extremely generous for an eye cream, which is great as it will last you a really long time. The texture of the product is creamy and easily sinks into my eye area with some gentle pats and extra gentle rubs. Once applied there is a lovely cooling sensation (aloe vera) which is so incredibly soothing to my under eye area. I like how I felt my under eye and side of eye area felt hydrated and more 'plump' due to the maqui berry oil. It takes a few minutes for the cream to settle in place.

On the box it suggests to apply before moisturising, so I have been cleansing my skin, patting dry then applying the eye cream before the serum, then moisturising (in the day) or applying the oil (in the evening). This works well for me to apply this eye cream twice daily as it working wonders to soothe, calm and nourish.

The price point is $44.99, which I think is reasonable for the amount of product you get, in comparison to other skincare brands. It is going to last awhile as a little goes a long way for this particular product. I do know, Farmers and the online website for Trilogy do have regular sales though to pick up any of the range at a cheaper price.

To be honest an eye cream hasn't been a part of my skin routine at all until now and after using this product I think it will continue being in my daily routine as the benefits I received from this luscious eye cream were fabulous.

Where to start on this review. Lovely packaging. Love the application spatula provided. Skin around the eyes soaked this product up. It was cooling and I believe my wrinkles have actually decreased slightly. I use this now twice daily.
