When I saw this in the September BRBB I was so excited, I wanted it from the day I saw a photo of it on Instagram.
It came packaged beautifully in a nicely decorated box with an organic cotton face cloth that is oh so soft, I'm picky about face cloths and normally only buy and use baby ones
The jar is plastic frosted brown with a black screw top lid, And once that lid comes of I can smell a delicious scent of sweet coconut.
The product itself is quite hard and rather than digging round using my fingers to scoop some out I use a teaspoon because ewww germs! So I scoop almost a teaspoon out and start rubbing it over my face and feeling it turn from a solid chunk to a liquid oil, quite fun really. I then massage it over my face and hold my fingers with a bit of the oil on them Over the eye area to remove stubborn mascara.
I wet the facecloth with warm water and gently wipe away the day, I am amazed at how quickly this melts makeup away and leaves no trace of anything not even mascara, it even got rid of the Halloween makeup in one go.
After I'm finished and have patted my face dry my skin looks and feels soft and glowy, I have dry skin and this seems to be making it feel so much softer. Even on non makeup days I'm still using it just because it makes my skin feel superb!!
I think this is the product that I was most excited about receiving in my BRBB. I have tried the Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm and it was amazing. So to have something from Trilogy in a similar type of product would have to be amazing!
This comes in a wee box with the jar and a wee organic cotton cloth. The cotton cloth is really soft. I have heaps of white facecloths I usually use though from Kmart ($6 for 5 I think). The jar itself is nice too. Thick brownish plastic with a black lid, seems secure enough which is great. The Trilogy packaging is lovely though. I just think it looks so classy.
So obviously this is a thick balm product. I usually keep these types of products on the windowsill in my bathroom and find that they can sometimes melt in warm weather. This smells really nice, somehow a mix between rosehip and coconut. I can't really smell the mango that is in it. It is incredibly thick so it does take a wee bit of force when digging your finger in. You only need a tiny bit to put all over your face and as it warms up with the heat of your skin it really melts over which is really nice. You do need to use the cloth or a facecloth and hot water to remove this as it is quite sticky otherwise (I advise using your own facecloth as the one they provide is far too soft). But I really don't mind because afterwards my skin feels fantastic and smooth and clean. It doesn't dry my skin out at all. This also managed to get rid of my waterproof mascara which is pretty impressive!
I know that this wee tub will last me a really long time but when it has run out I will definitely be off to the shops to buy myself a new one (I'm eyeing up the ones in the vault)! Great formulation and does everything for my skin that I want it to.
