Love it: Trilogy Make-Up Be Gone Cleansing Balm

I am mad for a good cleanser – give me gentle yet effective and I am happy as a clam. Add a luxurious experience to that and I’m fair over the moon, and the very kind people at Trilogy have done exactly that with the release of Trilogy Make-Up Be Gone Cleansing Balm.

It is a new, powerfully natural way to melt away make-up and leave your skin feeling cared for, and the formula is pure bliss. I love to cleanse with oils and balms, and my dry skin just lapped up this beauty the moment I first warmed it and smoothed it on.

A rich blend of pure plant oils, certified natural Trilogy Make-Up Be Gone Cleansing Balm melts on contact with warm skin, removing foundation, mascara and lipstick like nothing else, even stay-put and waterproof formulations. If the air is cool it takes a little warming up in the hands first I’ve found, then massage into the skin and watch it do its stuff:  dissolving away every trace of make-up, along with any impurities and the remains of the day.

Extra ingredients include skin-soothing mango butter and pure oils of coconut, sunflower and rosehip, so you are left with skin that is softened and hydrated too. If you’re a Trilogy fan then you’ll be well-versed in the joys of certified organic rosehip oil, whilst coconut oil, another multi-tasking wonder oil, is rich in essential fatty acids and has natural antibacterial properties to heal and repair. Sunflower seed oil delivers yet more essential fatty acids, along with antioxidant Vitamin E and minerals, and has calming and soothing properties to maintain balance in the skin.

It comes packaged with its own organic cotton cleansing cloth to remove every trace, and is delicately scented with a natural fragrance: a blend of ylang ylang, freesia and cedarwood. Heavenly!

To put this beauty to work:

Using your fingertips, apply ¼ - ½ teaspoon to a dry face and massage in light circular motions (or warm in the hands first as I mentioned above).

As the balm melts, gently massage into eyelashes and areas where heavy make-up needs removing.

Wring the organic cotton cloth out in warm water and gently wipe away make-up and balm.  Repeat as necessary to remove any excess balm.

Trilogy Make-Up Be Gone Cleansing Balm (80ml) has an RRP of $38.90 and is available right now.
