When your customers tell you they have sensitive skin they are telling you their skin is uncomfortable and reactive in some way. It turns out that the term is all-encompassing for consumers. Skin sensitivity has become a catch-all term for three distinct types of skin problems: rosacea, contact dermatitis and skin that burns and stings. The common link is inflammation, which is often worsened by chemicals.
Inflammation causes reactions and isn’t genetic in many cases. The Environmental Working Group in the United States revealed that modern women are exposed to a daily average of 126 chemicals from cosmetics, cleaning supplies, pollution and even the food they eat. The list of potential skin irritants is a long one, beginning with fragrance, allergies and stress, and we’re exposed to more and more of these with our changing lifestyles and environments.
To cater more effectively to such skin types, Trilogy has reformulated its newly repackaged Trilogy Sensitive range. The introduction of three new innovative products completes the regime of certified natural, dermatologically tested skincare especially crafted for highly reactive and sensitive skin types.
Trilogy Sensitive is designed to bring peace and comfort to even the most fragile, intolerant and reactive complexions. The new formulations include skin-rewarding maqui berry and sea buckthorn which are combined with the current range hero ingredient SyriCalm® to offer added repair, nourishment and protection.
Corinne Morley – Trilogy’s in-house beauty expert says: “The goal with sensitive skin is to protect the weakened skin barrier and rebuild the skin’s own natural protective defence function. It’s important to choose products rich in gentle moisturising and emollient ingredients, and free from essential oils, fragrances and irritating alcohols and chemicals. Trilogy Sensitive is a great natural alternative to traditional synthetic skincare, allowing you to care for sensitive skin while also protecting from some of the more unwanted signs of ageing such as fine lines and wrinkles.”
The three new products are: Trilogy Very Gentle Restoring Oil RRP $37.95 (30ml), Very Gentle Hydra-Mask RRP $37.95 (60ml) Very Gentle Eye Cream RRP $39.95 (25ml).
The newly reformulated products are: Trilogy Very Gentle Cleansing Cream RRP $39.95 (200ml), Trilogy Very Gentle Calming Serum RRP $44.95 (30ml) and Trilogy Very Gentle Moisturising Cream RRP $44.95 (60ml).
