New on Counter: Trilogy Sensitive Skin
By Beaut.ie  | Jun 28, 2010

While New Zealand brand Trilogy is already known for the quality of its calming, performing and non-reactive skincare (everyone who tries the Rosehip oil seems to absolutely rave about it, me included), they've just gone one further with Sensitive Skin, a trio of mineral oil-, paraben-, fragrance- and alcohol-free products. They're specifically designed for those who've got super-touchy complexions, including people who react to other skincare or who're intolerant to products due to hormonal and environmental changes.

Very Gentle Cleansing Cream, €25.95, Very Gentle Moisturising Cream, €29.95, and Very Gentle Calming Fluid, €25.95, are packed with pure spring water and a ton of botanicals like plant oils from almond, avocado and olive, plant-derived hyaluronic acid for extra moisture, green tea and calendula plus chamomile, marshmallow and evening primrose oil. Phew!

Textures are light and feel good on the skin.  To me, the most interesting product here is the Calming Fluid. For use alone or as a serum-step before your moisturiser, even though it's so gentle and designed for crochety skintypes, I'd tip the nod to this one as a good bet for anyone looking to bring an extra, naturally-derived hydrating step to their routine. Sure, you can buy moisture-boost serums from brands like Vichy and L'Oreal Paris, but if you're after a more earth-kind option then this is definitely worth a look.

You'll find the products in-store from July, and where-to-buy info can be found on our stockists page.
