Product Information

Key ingredients include sweet almond oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, elderberry seed oil, oat kernel oil, wheat germ oil, and shea butter As you age, your body’s production of collagen and elastin slows down. These two proteins are responsible for your skin’s structural support. As a result, the skin loses its natural plumpness and smoothness. A rinse-off exfoliator that gently dissolves dead skin cells without abrasion, leaving skin looking and feeling smooth, revitalised, and radiant.

In our opinion, Elemis products aren’t worth the money, simply because there are other skincare brands that offer similar products that are less expensive.The brand claims that passion fruit extract, avocado oil, and broccoli seed oil are “key” ingredients. However, these ingredients are used in very low concentrations (less than 1%) A gel moisturizer that is said to deliver cooling hydration while helping to soothe and protect dehydrated or sensitive skin

Elemis Superfood Facial Wash is a refreshing gel cleanser infused with a nutrient-dense Supergreen Complex to deeply cleanse skin and revive dull-looking skin. The Supergreen Complex consists of wheatgrass, kale, nettle, and minerals that all work together to promote a luminous complexion. A sugar-derived prebiotic, alpha-glucan oligosaccharide, helps to maintain a healthy balance in the skin’s microflora. Key ingredients include glycerin, synthetic emollients, wheat germ oil, shea butter, chlorella, Padina pavonica thallus extract, Acacia decurrens (mimosa) flower extract, and Rosa centifolia (rose) flower extract One reason this is problematic is because the low concentrations of key ingredients mean that there’s a low chance they will provide benefits to your skin. Don’t get us wrong, more doesn’t always equal better. This is true with the ingredient retinol, which is effective even at low concentrations. However, the brand could definitely use higher concentrations of ingredients like cucumber extract, avocado oil, and the other botanical extracts that they claim are key ingredients. A rinse-off mask that is said to deeply purify and help absorb excess oil to reveal a balanced, mattified complexion Broccoli seed oil is almost 50 percent erucic acid, a type of monounsaturated omega-9 fatty acid, which nourishes and protects skin from environmental aggressors. Broccoli seed oil also contains vitamin A, C and K as well as B vitamins. Flaxseed oil is the richest plant source of omega-3 fatty acids, specifically alpha linolenic acid (ALA). Omega-3 fatty acids improve the skin’s elasticity and texture, as well as help to calm redness. Daikon radish seed extract contains a mixture of C18, C20, and C22 fatty acids, which is unlike most cosmetic grade oils that primarily consist of C16 and C18 fatty acids. This unique mixture enables Daikon radish seed extract to impart a delicate slip with good absorption, as well as provide a sensory profile that is similar to esters and silicone type emollients. These three key ingredients combined with several other beneficial plant oils and extracts enables the Elemis Superfood Facial Oil to balance your complexion while providing a soft, supple feel to the skin after every application.A nighttime moisturiser that is said to nourish the skin with intense nutrition whilst you sleep so you wake up to a healthy glow In fact, many of the Elemis skincare products contain more fragrance than key ingredients! One example is the Elemis Papaya Enzyme Peel. If you look at the ingredient list, Fragrance (Parfum) comes before papain (the enzyme derived from papaya extract) and pineapple extract. While collagen is necessary for maintaining youthful-looking skin, the collagen protein is too large to absorb into the skin topically. That’s why applying skin care products that contain collagen won’t provide the anti-aging benefits you’re looking for. We’ve been hearing for years that Vitamin C is the best anti-aging ingredient. Vitamin C is a potent antioxidant that protects the skin from free radicals, the unstable molecules that contribute to the formation of premature wrinkles and fine lines on the skin.
