Founder Reid Barnett has been in the skincare industry for 15 years. He previously worked with two companies formulating and producing clinical-grade products for the aesthetic market. He has turned those years of experience into an exceptional new line. “I am using some of the best technologies I have uncovered in the past, and combining new and exciting ingredients, to raise the bar on product quality and performance. These are among the highest-performing products you will find in the marketplace,” says Barnett. In addition to using the best ingredients and working with small-batch production, Trillium Skincare has developed a proprietary technology called Skin Quench. It is used in most products in the line and addresses deep skin hydration and rejuvenation. Barnett says, “Dehydrated skin is common among men and women and can lead to other skin conditions, or make things worse for pre-existing issues. Hydrating the skin plays a key role in all of Trillium Skincare’s formulations and is a foundation of the line.” Interestingly, two of the ingredients used for hydration and rejuvenation are locally sourced. Trillium Skincare uses Abyssinian oil grown by PEI farmers and a regenerating starfish extract harvested on PEI using a cruelty-free method. Other locally sourced ingredients are currently being investigated for use in new products. Lisa, a user of Skin Quench Moisture Infusion, posted on the website, “I always go back and forth between products and never stick to the same one. This is a must and I will absolutely continue to buy it! My skin looks good again. Definitely recommending to my friends and family!” Quality is of the utmost importance to Barnett, but he wants to offer high-quality products at a reasonable
price. “I have learned that there is little correlation between price and performance,” he says. Trillium Skincare is currently available online, which allows for a lower price point, but some Island locations are being investigated. “We have been able to remove many of the handling costs and pass the savings on to our customers,” says Barnett. The product prices have shown to be between two and three times lower than other comparable premium products currently on the market. Trillium offers the best ingredients and the newest technologies, and is produced locally and available at a reasonable price. If that isn’t enough, there is also a product guarantee. “Anybody that uses skin care products has probably thrown products because they do not deliver. We offer a 30-day, full money-back guarantee to ensure
that everyone is not just satisfied, but totally blown away, with their Trillium Skincare product experience,” states Barnett. Products currently available include four powerful serums addressing hydration, rejuvenation, and anti-aging. Trillium Skincare will be adding several new products for spring and summer. An eye cream and face lotion will be available by May, with three men’s products following. Products are available at www. trillumskincare.ca; all ingredients are listed on the website.
