New Skin Care Products - Trilogy Review

If you've read my blog before you'll remember I have very sensitive skin.  I'm very careful about what I use as the wrong product for my skin type can cause allergic reactions and psoriasis. 

A few months ago I had a pretty bad flare up, I'm not sure what caused it but as a result I cut out all SLS and Paraban products to give my skin time to heal.  I also wanted to avoid the medicated products that I have previously used as I don't want my skin to become to used to them and render them ineffective when I really need them. 

So, I was doing some research on line and came back to Trilogy Skin Care.  I had considered trying trilogy a few years ago but Clarins was working well on my skin and I decided not to rock the boat.  This time however I decided to give it ago. 

I ordered a Rosehip Oil serum  (20ml Ā£19.99) and Vital Moisturising Cream (60ml Ā£24.50).  I always find it best to patch test each item before use so I started with the  Rosehip oil and as I had no reaction to it I followed the on line advice and used this in place of a face serum.  After a week my skin felt great, it was clearer than it had been for a while and had a glow to it.   The inclusion of Rosehip oil products in my routine has the benefits of keeping my skin well hydrated which can be key to controlling my skin breakouts and allergic reactions.  Rosehip also has healing properties so is helping my skin to recover as well as recuperate from environmental and other damage.  

As I had no reaction to the oil I deiced to use it on my decolletage where I tend to suffer most from psoriasis.  It took less than a week for the oil to work it's magic and heal the break out on my skin.  After two weeks there was no trace at all of my skin sensitivity. 


The Vital Moisturising cream really impressed me. You don't need a lot for your skin to feel hydrated and refreshed and this also keeps my skin condition under control.  

After the success of these two products I am now trying they Trilogy Age Proof Active Enzyme Cleansing Cream (200ml, Ā£27.50).  I'm using this in place of my Clarin's Cream cleanser.  Using morning and night, I massage in to my skin, even around the sensitive eye area and use a hot wash cloth to remove.  This works well at removing my make up - there is sometimes a little mascara residue but this usually comes off well with a softer second application.  

My makeup goes on better following these products and my skin has felt less irritated during this long hot summer.  

If your looking for a new skin care range I would definitely recommend giving this a try.

Man From Uncle - Movie Review

Late 2013 I read an article on Guy Richieā€™s new project, taking on the 1960ā€™s TV Series ā€œThe Man From Uncleā€ and I remember feeling rather excited.    Having seen other 50ā€™s and 60ā€™s shows reimagined and revitalized, Hawaii 5-0, Mission Impossible for contemporary audiences and having seen how Guy Ritchie adapted Sherlock Holmes for a stem-punk action generation I was intrigued to see how he would approach the world of cold war espionage and make it relevant to a modern audience. As a child growing up in the 80ā€™s a lot of my TV habits were dictated by my parents and grandparents   and they all loved TV dramas like Chips, Dukes of Hazard, The Saint, Mission impossible and The Man From Uncle which were on re-runs throughout my childhood.   I vague memories of watching Robert Vaughn and David McCallum strut around opulent sets looking rather dapper in a similar style to how I remember my grandfather dressing.   It was in a way dated to me even then but in a ...

Alas Poor Hamlet

I love London, I love theatre land, unfortunately I donā€™t get there as often as I would like, which is why I love the National Theatreā€™s live streaming of some truly remarkable performances. The Barbicanā€™s current run of Hamlet staring Benedict Cumberbatch was the latest offering, which I was glad to see knowing I wouldnā€™t otherwise get the opportunity to see the performance. The Barbican is a grade two listed building, from architects Chamberlin, Powell and Bon as part of the regeneration of Londonā€™s bombed landscape.   It opened in 1982 and is Europeā€™s largest multi arts and conference venues. Hamlet (5 August ā€“ 31 October 2015) Shakespeareā€™s great tragedy has been adapted for the stage by Director Lyndsey Turner and Producer Sonia Friedman.   The run time is approximately 1 hour 50 minutes. Hamlet played by Benedict Cumberbatch is grieving for the loss of his father and is enraged by the marriage of his mother to his uncle.   As war looms outside the g...

It's all about the base...

As someone who has word make-up her whole life for multiple reasons I'm always hunting for the perfect base as the first step in my daily makeup routine. Like most, my skin is far from perfect with a few freckles, imperfections and I'm English pale but not the rosey glow kind so I need to attempt to create that flawless fin ish everyone is looking for be it matt, dewy or natural. There are now so many types of primer on the market it can be daunting, do you need BB or CC Cream, a mattifying primer or a tinted one?   As usual I always go to the experts for advice and try the products together which should work together. In any review there's always and best and worst, so I'm starting here with the worst and building up to the grand finale:  The Not So Good  Clarins SOS Primer -in Universal Light  & Ever Lasting Youth Fluid Foundation in 107 Beige  Clarins has always been a go to line when my skin has been most sensitive. ...
