Ok … I believe that there is something positive about every season (I know it’s hard to see it that way when your fingers and toes feel like icicles), but one thing I really don’t like about winter, is what it does to my skin! Nevertheless, Elemis has left me feeling just a little bit better about the chilly season – if you haven’t yet heard about their amazing Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm … read on.
Dry skin has never been a problem for me (oily skin – now, that’s a different story). So … when I came across the balm from Elemis, I was slightly two-minded about it – almost like when you have to pick a topping for your Froyo and you can’t decide between the Astros and the bits of Flake, and you know you can’t have both because it might just kill the taste of the yoghurt!
Anyways, the balm is part of Elemis’ anti-ageing collection. Now before you switch off and assume that you don’t need a product like this yet, it’s good to remember that your skin doesn’t only need attention when you age – the environment, or something as basic as stress, can do serious damage to your skin … and that’s why I decided to give the balm a try.
First of all, the fragrance of the balm is amazing – think earthy and flowery! When you apply it to your face, it has a very waxy feel to it, but as you add water, it becomes soapy and feels more like the face washes that you’re used to (personally, I love how it goes on because it doesn’t drip, fall everywhere and make a mess)! As soon as the first wash, I felt like my skin had more moisture and a gorgeous glow to it – that’s probably thanks to the Starflower Oil.
Plus, Elemis has created a special edition version of the Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm (R1,450), as well as a few other products, in honour of its 25-year anniversary … so now, there’s even more to go around! Get ready to say goodbye to dry, and hello to the glow!
Say Hi to Elemis on .
