HydraFacial is a detoxifying and deep cleansing facial treatment that uses active botanical ingredients made from plant extracts, flowers, bark, and leaves.

HydraFacial uses patented Vortex – Fusion technology to remove dirt, dead skin, debris while cleansing, hydrating, and soothing your skin.

It’s known to deliver a powerful antioxidant to reduce the damage from free radicals such as pollution, sun exposure and stress which can accelerate the ageing process.

How does it differ from other skin treatments?

The Vortex – Fusion technology has been proven to give clients a satisfying and better results compared to both facial treatments. Using Vortex – Fusion results can be seen immediately based on your skin condition.

It can correct and treat sun damage, uneven skin tone, fine lines as well as oily and dehydrated skin in one treatment.

Skin Care Review: Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream

January 6, 2023 by admin

Why is everyone talking about Collagen?

‘Collagen’ is a naturally occurring protein in our bodies, it helps us build and strengthen our skin’s elasticity, our hair, muscles, and bones. But as we age, the amount of collagen in our body decreases and factors such as excess sun exposure, diet, sleep, and exercise also affect our collagen production. As we age the collagen fibres in our bodies decrease and are damaged, causing the thickness and strength of the cells to reduce. This results in the skin becoming less firm, fine lines forming and wrinkles appearing. Using collagen rich products is one way to help combat fine lines and wrinkles.

Elemis Pro – Collagen Marine Cream

This cream is an award-winning CEW UK Beauty Award Winner 2020. It is an ultra-light gel cream that sinks into the skin and is packed with omega 3, helping improve skin elasticity and texture by strengthening the skin’s barrier. This facial cream also provides extra hydration helping keep your skin looking healthier and revitalised.

Best on which skin type?

If you are someone who wants to improve the firmness and elasticity for youthful looking skin for a longer period, then this cream will help.
Works well on dry skin and also works well for sensitive and reactive skin. This daily anti- aging moisturiser has a creamy and luxurious texture, it is fast absorbing and can be used every morning after cleansing.

Pro Collagen Marine Cream

My skin looks and feels vibrant. I’ve been using this cream for many years and it is simply the best I’ve ever used.

★★★★★ 6 days ago

Elemis Pro Collagen Marine Cream

It’s fantastic, great product. Absorbs easily – goes a long way. I get many comments about

how good my skin looks and that I look much younger than my age.

★★★★★ 5 months ago Amazing!

I wish I didn’t like this as much as I do, because I grudge the price point but it is really nice. I have combination skin with dry patches and this really works to smooth out and hydrate my skin. I tend to prefer thicker moisturisers because I think they hydrate my skin the best, but this is really lightweight and still makes my skin feel quenched. It’s lovely for prepping my skin for makeup too.

★★★★★ 5 months ago

I’m Hooked

I’m hooked on Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. It’s lightweight but feels luxurious and a little goes a long way, so a tub will last for a while. I tried it as a sample a few years ago and I’ve been hooked ever since

We look forward to welcoming you soon.

As well as in the evenings or just before you go to bed to let your skin cleanse overnight.

This product is ideally for anyone who has dry, dry/ oily, or even oily skin. The AHA Glow Cleansing Butter does not stain your skin nor is it greasy; it has a unique gel cream balm with a lightweight texture and helps to nourish and hydrate your skin.

This smooth butter cream has many benefits that support the skin to maintain its healthiness without adding too many products to your skin. Below are our top benefits you can expect:
