Elemis Pro-Collagen Body Cream 200ml


I got this body cream at the Harvey Nichols 15% off Christmas evening.  It retails at £49 so I got it for £41.65.  When I bought it I hadn't realised how expensive it is - if I had I'd never have purchased it. (I think the assistant saw how shocked I was so she gave me a few samples!)

The cream contains Padina Pavonica, a collagen boosting marine extract.  It is suitable for all skin types.  A rich gel serum like cream with a "Spa" scent.  I must admit I love it.  It contains a slight sparkle which makes skin luminous.  It contains oils of babussu (like coconut), castanha (brazil nut) and bilberry seed for anti-ageing.

I'm using it only on special occasions, its a real pampering product and I'd definitely re-purchase (if I could afford it!) x

  2. @Claire Louise, I know ouch! I'd recommend Elemis though. You should look at QVC as they do some real great value starter sets x

  3. Oh, that's expensive, even with the discount! I also keep meaning to try some Elemis bits. My Mum used to collect all their samples from the cruises she went on, so I've tried some of their stuff, but not any facial skincare - I wanted to buy some in the Debenhams sale, but I wasn't quick enough... I had the window open on my computer for a set, but by the time I came to buy it, it was sold out :( xx

  4. Wow, I didn't realised it was that expensive. I actually received a 50ml with a Debenhams order I placed online. I thought it was a free sample but maybe it was sent by mistake. Looking forward to try it now. :)

  6. Oh dear, not surprised you got a shock at the till! Elemis products are lovely though. Maybe this product will appear in one of their great value collections at some point so you can repurchase then! x
