Trilogy Everything Balm Review

I was beyond happy to see this little parcel waiting at my doorstep four days ago. What a treat! I have read so many amazing reviews on BR about everyone's experiences with 'Everything Balm' by Trilogy, so I was so excited to try it for myself.

I have found that it is REALLY solid and hard, so to get any product out you really need to try dig into the balm. I haven't read anyone else with this complaint before so I am not sure if others have experienced this also, or if Dunedin is so freezing at the moment that it just remains hard? I have read that people have used this Balm as a moisturizer also, but I can't seem to get enough product out to be able to moisturize large areas of my skin, which is a bit of a shame!

I have really sensitive lips so the first thing I thought of when I opened this product was 'I wonder if it will work well on my lips?' I have had no reaction (I think that is down to it being 100% natural and organic!) and it tends to keep them reasonably hydrated (although I do have to reapply often - I am not sure if this is normal or not). I am really happy that I have found a product which works well on my lips, as I have struggled to find any before.

The packaging of the Everything Balm is so cute! It is in line with Trilogy's eco-friendly and natural stance, which I love! The ingredients and scent are absolutely divine - rosehip oil, jojoba, evening primrose oil, and honey. Doesn't that sound fabulous!

Overall I think the Everything Balm has worked well. It is the first ever Trilogy product that I have tried and I am pretty impressed with it. As mentioned previously, I would like the Balm to be slightly less hard and solid, but on the whole it works well, and I would recommend it to my friends and family, and the BR community!

I really liked this product as I get super dry elbows and feet. I have been using this for nearly a week now and loving the results already. I use it straight after I get out of the shower and it is wonderful. Smells really nice and is easy to apply, especially to warm just-showered skin. I have also been using it on a few scars, havnt noticed much different to them but will conitinue with it anyway. It really is an everything balm, I have also used it on my nails and hands , really helps with my cuticles.

I loved the consistency of this product i only really used it on my lips and it felt very soft and moisturising,and stayed on a while,the smell was natural and i liked how when you put it on your skin it instantly melted down into an oil, BRILLIANT!

I loved this balm. I wasn't sure what to really use it on at first. I put it on my chapped lips and made them very soft and soothed the stinging. Also over the weekend i got the flu and got a sore nose from blowing it. I put this balm around the nose area and it prevented it from getting sore, red and chapped from continous blowing. I love the texture and smell is devine, oh and the box is sooo cute and love the floral design inside. Its one of those products thats good for everything and good to have on hand. I even tested it on a patch of my sons eczema with positive results.

Trilogy is a major brand so it is natural to expect a lot. In that respect maybe I am not very happy but if I take the brand name out of the picture it is a pretty alright balm. I love the all natural fragrance and the fact that it turned out to be an excellent night cream. My skin was very soft the next morning! Loved it :) However there were some problematic areas like my nose ridge and tip of my chin that still had flaky skin after the application of this balm ( when used as a day cream) As a lip conditioner it is an excellent balm, my lips were not dry for at all at least upto 5 hours after the first application. It is great for the senstive skin under my eyes as well and also as acuticle cream. All in all it almost did everything it said. The only problem, oily nose after an hour of first application and dry flaky skin on the nose ridge and chin (when used as a day cream) .

Off to a good start with using only natural nourishing ingredients such as marula oil which has great moisturising qualities and rosehip oil which is fantastic for a variety of skin conditions such as eczema, brittle nails and scarring. At first I was a bit put off by how hard the product was, you do really need to warm it and a little goes along way! Once I got going it grew on me. It smells devine, has a pleasant honey after taste when used on my lips and has really softened up my dry winter elbows. I feel the high beeswax content of the Trilogy Everything Balm makes it to heavy to use on the face or as I general body moisturiser. But it is a great product to use medicinally on bites, stings, dermatitis or as an intense moisture treatment on small dry areas such as elbows, knees, lips, cuticles etc. A handbag must have!

I have contact dermatitis on my hands which I have been using all sorts of medicated creams to no avail. I tried Trilogy Everything Balm on the affected area and have had amazing results!! I also used this balm on my sons dehydrated lips in hospital recently and had instant results.

This product does replace many things, for me definitely lip balm, and moisturiser. I've found it really good on extra dry bits like heels and elbows etc. I don't love the smell, it seems quite strong to me. Also the packaging isn't as compact as it could be - they probably could put it in a smaller container so it's more handbag ready. I have used it on my baby since he was 4 months old for massage, and nappy cream - and it's been very good for this.

I took a pot of Everything Balm to my friends in the UK when I visited a few months ago. Everyone loved it, it suits all skin types and is perfect for those people who want a one-pot for everything cream. I keep one at work too for dry hands and you are travelling light for the weekend, this is the perfect moisturiser to take with you.

I have this sitting on my desk at work. I use it for dry lips and dry elbows - dry anything really. It isn't my most favourite product but it is value for money and does what it says it will do!
