Elemis Creams

Check out part 1 if you haven’t already! Elemis. I previously worked at a PR firm that represented the brand so I got a lot of free product to try but this is 100% my opinion. - ELEMIS - Superfood Facial Oil I love this facial oil- it locks in all of the products I used before without slipping around everywhere. It’s also deeply nourishing! - ELEMIS - Pro-Collagen Marine Cream Ultra-Rich I actually really like this super moisturizing face cream! It’s a little more emollient and thick compared to their original Pro-Collagen Marine Cream but still something I can use, with my combination skin. - ELEMIS - Pro-Collagen Oxygenating Night Cream I liked this formula but I’m not sure I see much of a difference in result from this compared to their original Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. The texture is a little more pudding and jelly like which I don’t mind but I’d rather just get their other face creams. - ELEMIS - Peptide4 Adaptive Day Cream This is a great formula for oilier/combination skin because it’s not a cream that leaves your skin dewy. It has more of a satin matte finish while still hydrating and moisturizing the skin with peptides. - ELEMIS - Peptide4 Plumping Pillow Facial I don’t really like this product because I just don’t find it does much for my skin. It’s a super lightweight gel texture but my skin doesn’t look and feel extra plumped when I wake up. I’d rather just use their Ultra-Rich Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. - ELEMIS - Ultra Smart Pro-Collagen Eye Treatment Duo This is crazy expensive and meant for anti-aging so I gave this set to my mom and she loves it. There’s a Day Cream and Night Balm duo with a metal rollerball like tool for application. She says it’s great for de-puffing and is super moisturizing. - ELEMIS - Dynamic Resurfacing Facial Pads I love these facial pads!!! They’re physically gentle on the skin but the ingredients help to exfoliate the skin without any irritation. Whenever I have a bit of texture, I’ll swipe these on before applying my other face products and they help tremendously!

First of all skincare that’s a luxury to me may not be a luxury to you. I honestly think that it’s not the product brand or claims that make it a luxury, but the science, thought and ingredients behind it. We all have our own budgets and limits on how much we’re willing to spend so with everything I say on this subject, take it with a grain of salt! Skin Ceuticals. This is probably my favorite skincare brand- there’s so much research and science behind each product. My favorites include: - SKINCEUTICALS - Hydrating B5 Gel a super lightweight, but extremely hydrating and skin-plumping serum full of Hyaluronic Acid and Vitamin B5 - SKINCEUTICALS - C E Ferulic With 15% L-Ascorbic Acid Vitamin C Serum a potent anti-oxidant serum with Vitamins C & E, Ferulic Acid & L-Ascorbic Acid to help treat hyper-pigmentation and brighten the skin - SKINCEUTICALS - Retinol 0.3 a low percentage retinol for speeding up cell turnover without any irritation or overly drying the skin - SKINCEUTICALS - Physical Fusion Uv Defense SPF 50 a super thin serum formula with high SPF to protect your skin from the sun - no white cast! Drunk Elephant. Their products are expensive and get hyped up A LOT (which sometimes makes me not want to try them?), but I like that their products are usually centered around one main ingredient. I’ve tried: - DRUNK ELEPHANT - T.L.C. Framboos Glycolic Resurfacing Night Serum which is a nice glycolic serum that helps to smooth and exfoliate the skin but I’ve tried other glycolic products like ALPHA-H - Micro Super Scrub with 12% Glycolic Acid which I find more effective! - DRUNK ELEPHANT - D-Bronzi Anti-Pollution Sunshine Drops just a bronze-colored serum but I don’t find anything too special about it or its ingredients. I fell for the “anti-pollution” claim- never again! Fresh. I love some and don’t love some. I like their whole “natural” approach but I find some of their formulas not effective on my skin at all. - fresh - Black Tea Kombucha Facial Treatment Essence I LOVE this facial treatment. I use it as an essence, as it contains Lactic Acid, to help gently brighten & smooth the skin. - fresh - Lotus Anti-Aging Night Moisturizer This is super moisturizing night cream that really plumps up my skin overnight so I wake up to glowy, bouncy skin! - fresh - Rose Deep Hydration Toner This is so disappointing compared to their Black Tea Facial Treatment. It does nothing to hydrate- just feels like overpriced rose water. - fresh - Rose & Hyaluronic Acid Deep Hydration Moisturizer I think the rose in the formula irritates my skin and turns it a little pink. I’ve just been using it as a body cream so I it doesn’t go to waste! Elemis- check out part 2!
