Trevarno Day Cream Reviews

Review of Trevarno Organic Day Cream
by Elizabeth O.
Packaging: The trial sized Trevarno Organic Day Cream comes contained in a small transparent jar with screw top lid. The full sized versions – available in quantities of either 30ml or 60ml – are contained in a brightly coloured jar which also has a screw top lid and means that you have to dip your fingers into the jar in order to get to the product.
Application: The product is a very light and subtle cream that glides along the skin effortlessly before melting into it. It is absorbed quickly and easily and is not at all greasy and only a relatively small amount is required to moisturize the face and décolletage sufficiently. The cream imparts a healthy glow rather than a gloss or oily looking sheen to the face and though the glow appeared to fade gradually throughout the day I was left with skin that felt adequately moisturized and supple.
Ingredients: As the first beauty company to meet the Organic Farmers and Growers strict standards in order to gain formal organic certification, Trevarno’s Organic Day Cream is bursting with organic goodies, cruelty free and ethical ingredients and harbors no off-putting nasties such as chemical preservatives or stabilizers. Consisting of Organic Lavender Flower Water, Sunflower Oil, Vitamin E, Grapefruit Seed extract and Jojoba Oil to name a few, the cream is made up of an appealing list of simple ingredients which combined give off a fresh and pleasant natural scent which lingers subtly on the skin.
Results: The Trevarno Organic Day Cream performed well on my oily, combination skin. The drier areas of my face were well moisturized whilst the oilier patches were regulated and my complexion overall appeared improved, slightly brighter and took on a dewy look after only a few days of using the product. My skin which is at times sensitive and can be quite reactive was not at all aggravated by the cream which also acts as a lovely base beneath makeup, contributing to a smooth and even natural looking finish. The Trevarno Organic Day Cream performed well and is very reasonably priced and therefore would definitely make it onto my Christmas wish list.
Pros:
My sensitive skin was noticeably relived and soothed by the product.
It is absorbed easily and quickly and has a pleasant yet subtle scent.
It available with or without added SPF sun protection.
The cream makes for a great base beneath makeup.
Cons:
The product comes contained in a screw top jar which means there is a risk of contaminating the cream as a result of dipping your fingers into it.

Trevarno Organic Eye Cream Reviews

Review of Trevarno Organic Eye Cream
by Beverley S.
Packaging
Trevarno eye cream is beautifully presented in a small opaque purple glass jar with an aluminum coloured screw top lid. It was totally different from any other eye products I have used although I would have preferred it to have a tiny spatula as this organic eye cream is in a jar with very fresh ingredients which are in contact with the air as soon as the jar is opened.
The 4 month shelf life is clearly shown with a reassuring list of natural ingredients. I was pleased to see Eyebright listed as one of the ingredients as I use this in another eye care product & know it is gentle but effective.
Application
Trevarno is intensive and incredibly nourishing! My eye area is extremely fine, possibly finer than most, although I need hydration I mistakenly used too much on the first night. I then used a tiny spatula to lift the tiniest dot out of the jar, applying around the orbital bone. It was vital to use a lot less than I thought I needed, gently tapping around then smoothly massage the cream taking care to avoid the eye lid. The Trevarno eye cream is full of highly nourishing ingredients which is incredible when I considered the price point compared to other products I have tried.
Comments
The cream is almost balm like in texture which relates to the fact it is so intensive. The smell is not artificial, it is definitely natural reminding me of a herb garden after the rain. I would consider other products from Trevarno’s range as I now know how nourishing the ingredients are. The eye cream would be something I would use although I would probably apply as an intensive course at the change of seasons or during the daytime as I found it could be too rich for my very fine skin over night. I feel Trevarno’s eye treatment cream is most suited to anyone who really needs to hydrate their eye area. A “little goes a long way” I don’t think I would use all of the cream before the 4mths and this is most unusual for me.
Results
I loved the fact the Trevarno cream didn’t sting & once I learned I only needed to use a dot application was easy. Normally I would use a richer eye product at night but I found my the skin around my eye area tolerated the richer texture during the day time giving a plumper appearance.
Pros
• Extremely nourishing
• No hidden nasties just pure ingredients hand made which is wonderful
• Price point is excellent considering the quality of ingredients used
Cons
• The intensity could be too heavy for anyone who needs light hydration or has paper fine skin
• The open type jar would concern me with an eye product especially without preservatives.
• A clean spatula would be best to use for cleanliness & lifting the tiniest dot.
