Trilogy Sensitive Range Review

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.

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.

I was super excited to be chosen for this product trial as I have very sensitive skin and nothing I have tried has worked to calm it, only irritated it. I am hoping that this range will work well with my skin and live up to my expectations.

Trilogy is a brand that I know has been around for as long as I can remember and it is a brand I trust. One big plus for me is that it is a natural brand and certified organic. I have been leaning more towards natural brands these days. The trilogy sensitive range consists of 6 products which are specifically designed and formulated for people with sensitive skin using natural and calming ingredients such as maqui berry, syricalm and camellia. This range is powerfully natural, dermatologically tested, certified by BioGro, supports ethical trade practices, non gmo, fragrance free and not tested on animals. All of the above are fantastic traits regarding this range.

The packaging is peach and white, very soft tones. I really like the pattern of the inside of the boxes. It’s quite hard to find the word to describe it but it’s quite a unique pattern. All packaging is recyclable. The products themselves are in recyclable bottles are jars. I believe they are called amber glass, some have a frosted look to them.

The 6 amazing products that you get in this range are: Cleansing cream, restoring oil, calming serum, eye cream, moisturising cream and hydra - mask.

I have been using this range daily for the past 3 weeks and I think it’s simply amazing! It has been such a positive rewarding experience and my skin has never been so good and calm before. As I am doing indiviual seprate reviews on each product I’ll give you a quick summary of each now.

Cleansing cream - very creamy and makes my skin feel so soft and smooth. I love how it has no smell and no irritation. Such a breeze to use and wash off.

Restoring Oil - not just your average oil. Makes my skin smooth and also smooths out lines and other imperfections. I have noticed that during the past 3 weeks.

Moisturising cream- just the right consistency, not too heavy. Super hydrating!

Eye cream - makes my under eye area look less irritated and has much more of a smoother appearance. Very hydrating.

Calming Serum - calms down irritation. I had some irritation up on my forehead, by my hair line after washing my hair and I applied the calming serum and the irritation just stopped and went away. I love this!

Hydra- Mask - Super hydrating, a very good mask.

I was extremely excited to trial these, as I have very sensitive skin and always have a hard time finding products that my skin agrees with! The packaging of the whole range is cohesive, beautiful and classy, I really like the pale pink and white colour theme, and the frosted glass packaging gives it such a luxurious feel, weight and look. I was impressed that the products packages in a jar (the under eye cream, moisturiser and mask) came with a spatula, which is really helpful for getting the product out, especially when it is running low. Overall, I loved this range! It seems to fit my skin perfectly, the products are very gentle and really calming for my sensitive skin, but at the same time so hydrating for my dryness. I didn’t react to a single product, not even an inkling of redness, itchiness or inflammation. In fact, I have noticed an improvement in the redness and dryness of my skin since I have been using these products. There was not one product that I didn’t like, I feel that all of them worked really well on my skin! As a range, I think that the products compliment each other really well, it’s been really thought through carefully and these products have definitely been taking care of my skin. I don’t have anything bad to say about these products at all, and they did all work really well for my skin and I have been loving them. These products, however, are relatively expensive, and I probably wouldn’t be able to afford them all (being a poor student). If I was to repurchase or if I was thinking of buying the whole range, I would pick a few of these products, as I don’t feel all the products the whole range are essential or staple products. Personally, my top two favourites are the serum and cleanser. I also particularly liked the moisturizer and the hydrating mask for my dry skin. All in all, I love these products, and my skin loves them too.

I'm 54 and have had sensitive skin all of my life. Over the years I've stuck to using a day cream and serum I've found to be gentle and non irritating. Trying to find a cleanser or my word, a masque/intensive treatment has only led to inflammation and irritation.

The Trilogy Sensitive range has been a delight. I finally feel I'm experiencing a full skin care regime, and my skin has never looked so fresh and calm. The range is a beautiful addition to my vanity and considering how little product you need to use at a time, it'll be an economical regime to maintain.

I'll summarise the range here, and go into more detail in my individual product reviews.

Cleanser - this cleanser is a revelation. It's so rich and luxurious but gentle and non-stripping. It leaves my skin feeling moisturised and calmed from the day.

Moisturising Cream - so smooth and beautifully absorbed. It's light enough for day wear, but I found myself applying a thicker layer for an intensive overnight treatment, with no ill effects to my skin!

Hydro-mask - the product I most fear was lovely! My skin felt super hydrated for a few days after using this!

Eye cream - great little product, felt wonderfully light on my delicate eye area and I felt has improved the appearance of my undereyes.

Calming Serum - so, so nice!! I was a bit reluctant to switch from my usual serum because it took me so long to find one that worked, but this is amazing. It really does soothe and calm my skin while leaving it feeling supple.

Facial Oil - this was the only product of the range I didn't really enjoy using. For me it was just too thick and didn't absorb as well as other products. But my daughter who has dry skin loved it.

Overall - brilliant range!

As a 45 year old, I never listened to my mother and now have saggy baggy skin

I loved this range, not only for the smell, but it felt like it really worked. Cleanser -the cleanser is amazing. It's so rich and luxurious but gentle and didn't strip my skin. It leaves my skin feeling moisturised and relaxed The serum was really luxurious. Hydra- Mask - Super hydrating, a very good mask Eye Cream felt cool and refreshing on the delicate skin around my eyes, is very lightweight and absorbed easily I loved these products and would definitely keep buying

I absolutely LOVE this range from Trilogy and have been using it since it first became available in NZ. Itchy flare ups are a thing of the past and if I do get a stress reaction the calming serum is perfect for settling it down. The mask is incredibly moisturising and can be left on overnight for an intense treatment without concerns of causing spots. Really from my perspective it is the ideal range with each individual product complimenting the other. If my skin is reactive I use the calming serum & moisturising cream combo for both night & day. When it’s behaving I use the restoring oil/moisture cream combo for nights. Then once a week apply the Hydra Mask overnight. You can expect your skin to feel soothed, moisturised and radiant from the Very Gentle range without your skin feeling heavy. I’m 50 this year with fine lines so recommend it also for maturing skin.

Very excited to trial this skin care range, I am the queen of sensitive skin.This range is fantastic at delivering moisture, and not irritating in the slightest. The packaging is glass, the only plastic is on the lids and the pump bottles. Because these are glass they have a substantial weight, adding to the feel that this is more higher end than supermarket products. Easy to identify in the Trilogy range, we have the white stripe on the label, and these products look good next to the bed or in the bathroom, simple, yet substantial. A total of six items in this range, if you are needing anti ageing, this is not it, but for moisturising, calming and soothing from a skincare range, This .Is. It. I used the Very Gentle Eye Cream first, in a glass jar, this is a very light,not at all greasy, easily absorbed eye cream, with no scent and comes with a small plastic scoop to save on product usage. No SPF though. I love how this is not greasy. Next was the Very Gentle Calming Serum, I liked how it was more of a light lotion than a serum, pump applicator, and not oily like other serums on the market. Great also on the back of the hands. Performs better than other high end serums I have used before, delivers moisture really well. Again no SPF. The Very Gentle Hyrda-Mask was thick and creamy, it looks yellow, and is a super rich leave on mask, very good for extremely dry skin. No scent, and I found no need to moisturise after using this. The Very Gentle Moisturising cream is in jar form, it is calming and really hydrating, I find the texture a bit heavy for daily use, would be fantastic for mature dry skin though. Very Gentle Restoring Oil would have to be my least favourite from the range, unfortunately I found this to be like other oils on the market, I know it's an oil, but honestly, for me, oil sits on top of the skin, hardly absorbs, and I cannot like the greasiness of it all, in saying that, if you like using oils, this is for you, but I will pass. The Very Gentle Cleansing Cream was like the dark horse of the range, this is like a rinse off moisturiser, not a foamy or gel cleanser, my skin was not left tight after using this, and it removes my makeup well. Pump type applicator, and no scent. A really nice cleanser to use. The eye cream, cleanser and the calming serum are my favourites, the range was so good for my skin, and some of them I will continue to use. You will also need to use an SPF with this range.

Having sensitive skin is like having young children - the way it behaved yesterday is often no way related to how it will be today! My bathroom cupboard is witness to a fair line-up of partially used tubes and bottles, that haven’t proved suitable. So, I was eagerly anticipating trialling the Trilogy range for sensitive skin, while prepared for more of the same.

I’ve used the range for almost 3 weeks now – I am very pleased to say that I have finally found one that has made the grade! Six products that work very well together, and will oust many of the other residents in my cabinet. Thanks BR for the opportunity to try this lovely NZ range.

The packaging for the whole range is quality amber coloured glass jars/ bottles within a smart recyclable packaging. Certified natural, they are unfragranced, (but you can smell some of the oils in there) and have all sorts of goodies including antioxidants, soothers & ingredients that support your skin and calm it down. Note that the range does not have any SPF in it, so you’ll need to get your protection from another product. This may be a good thing as I’ve found many skin products with added SPF cause problems with my sensitive skin.

The products range between RRP $43.99-52.99, so not cheap – I read it described somewhere as “an investment”. However, these products really do work together beautifully with sensitive skin. My favourites were the cleanser, moisturiser and eye cream. The serum and the hydra-mask followed, then the oil. It’s hard to tell whether you could get as good a result without using the whole lot together. I estimate that there’s probably around 4 -6 months supply in each product, judging by my current use. (More for the hydra-mask as I’ve been using 1-2 times per week.). I have individually reviewed the 6 products in more detail if you want to check them out.

First up, loved it! My skin has major sensitivities and also builds up intolerances to products very, very quickly. I used to use Trilogy a lot but as a poor student I had to change as it was out of my budget. This could sway me back though.

Each product perfectly compliments the others, but could also be used separately.

It is all gentle, effective and lovely on the skin. It didn't clog my skin, didn't irritate it, and helped soothe and heal my skin. I was really worried about it as I have eczema around my eyes, but it was gentle and soothing.

I had comments on my skin for the first time in forever! My husband said it looked smoother and much less red and irritated.

While I'm not a huge fan of the glass (the sensitive range used to be in tubes which meant product wasn't exposed to oxygen etc), or the little spatulas (I get that it's to stop contamination but honestly, it's annoying and time consuming and I had to keep chasing the kids to get them back :P ), I can see the benefit re plastic packaging. I took the range away for a week-long tangi and not one product smashed or leaked so the glass is tough.

A great range for those fellow sensitive-skin sufferers. This was a pleasant surprise and Trilogy is on to a winner with this range. A+++
