Coming soon...

I recently discovered completely new brand of natural and organic skincare - Michael Todd True Organics. I was doing a lot of research about the products and brand itself - all results were really positive. I was so excited and anxious to try it, that my husband ordered for me this Anti-Aging skincare regimen and in addition one more face mask.
I did get in touch with MTTO and they recommended products which are suitable to my skin type, based on the facts that I provided in our correspondence. So, when I was thinking about ordering the products, I noticed that almost all of them are in this set. The set itself was cheaper and at that moment on the promotion, so we ordered that. Now that I used up all my old creams and potions I am going to try this regimen and see how it goes. I did get 4 additional samples (of really generous size) and I loved them!
I will report back in a month or so. In the meantime, if someone has already tried some products from this brand, please let me know, I will be happy to hear your thoughts.

Product Review: Trilogy Cream Cleanser

Hello everyone! Sorry for so long absence - too much to do and too little time... Anyway, today I wanted to share with you my review of this little beauty. I am sure that there are many reviews of this cleanser, however, I want to share my opinion as well.
I was looking for a natural cleanser, that also removes the make up. I can across this one in my local Boots store and decided to try it.
The cleanser comes in a very nice glass bottle with a pump (which always gets a thumbs up from me!) Packaging, although simple, still looks very nice and respectable on my bathroom shelf. The consistency is very creamy, but not runny - more of a lotion or light cream. It has a slight rosehip smell and on a contact with skin it  melts and feels really nice, creamy and moisturizing. When you massage it on your skin you can actually feel how it is getting deep inside the pores and cleans the skin. One of the best points is the fact that it doesn't dry out the skin at all- it feels very moisturized, without leaving a tight feeling or some oily residue.
One thing that really surprised me was the fact that it makes the skin very smooth. It feels like you just had a peel/microdermabrassion or just used a face scrub - very soft, smooth and even.  It removes all make up brilliantly. I am not sure how it will work with mascara - as I always remove my eye make up prior to washing my face, but it does remove the traces of mascara that my eye make up remover failed to clean up. I tried few times to go over my face with a toner to see whether some traces of make up were left - the cotton ball always stays perfectly clean!
I noticed that with continuous use my skin condition improved significantly. The texture of the skin is much smoother. Breakouts are a rare sight on my face now. Acne scars are fading as well. Skin has a very healthy glow and the best thing - I finally got rid off my blackheads on my nose! None of the solutions, even the ones that are specifically designed for that, were unable to do that. Now I have clean pores! I couldn't be more happier!
I must say I am impressed. At first I was hesitant on trying this product, but I really wanted to try natural cleanser. I was attracted by ingredients:
Aqua (Purified Spring Water), Glycerin, Rosa Canina (Rosehip) Seed Oil, Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Oil, Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil, Cetearyl Wheat Straw Glycosides & Cetearyl Al, Cetearyl Alcohol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Aloe Barbadensis (Aloe Vera) Leaf, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Oil, Ormenis Multicaulis (Chamomile Flower) Oil, citrus aurantium amara (bitter orange) flower, Xanthan Gum, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Parfum, Citral, Geraniol, Citronellol, Limonene, Linalool, *Components of Natural Essential Oils

Not bad, right? Overall, I will say this is the best cleanser that I have ever used. When I'll finish my current bottle i will definitely repurchase it. It is £22.50, but 200ml bottle is huge and a little goes a long way. Anyway, based on the results I would say it is worth the money you pay for it.

Has anyone tried this cleanser or any other products from Trilogy? Let me know what you think about them!
