ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Oil

Product Information

The high concentration of antioxidant compounds found in ginkgo biloba leaf extract, such as flavonoids and polyphenols, enable this ingredient to function as a free radical scavenger. Free radicals are highly reactive, unstable molecules that come from factors such as UV exposure, pollution, smoking, etc. After the skin is exposed to these factors, free radicals can react with important cellular components within the skin, such as DNA, the cell membrane, and collagen. Damage to these components leads to signs of aging, such as lines, wrinkles, and sagging skin. By using ingredients that are rich in antioxidants, such as ginkgo biloba leaf extract, the skin is better protected from free radicals.

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.Founded in 1989, British skincare brand Elemis was one of the first pioneers of a holistic approach to beauty. The idea for this luxury line of skincare products came from entrepreneur and investor Linda Steiner. Linda’s goal was to create a line of products “as near to nature as possible” with “no expense spared.” She was soon joined by co-founders Noella Gabriel, Sean Harrington, and Oriele Frank, who helped turn Elemis into a sought-after brand that is now available in over 45 countries around the world.

Key ingredients include aloe vera leaf juice, glycerin, urea, synthetic emollients, and alpha-glucan oligosaccharide I'd say that it took around three weeks for me to notice the changes, that may seem like subtle changes to some, but absolutely huge changes for me. I've spent a good couple of years feeling self conscious about my fine lines but this cream is seriously helping combat them.The brand does use beneficial ingredients in some products (e.g. sweet almond oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, meadowfoam seed oil, glycerin, niacinamide, lactic acid, etc) 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. ELEMIS products are formulated using organic extracts, pure essential oils, natural emulsifiers, and skinsoftening emollients. Its comprehensive anti-ageing skincare line, which includes facial wash, day cream, serums and moisturiser, is carefully crafted by scientists and skincare experts through an innovative synthesis of science and nature. Among its most popular anti-ageing products are the ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm and ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Marine Cream.

Key ingredients include sweet almond oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, elderberry seed oil, oat kernel oil, wheat germ oil, and shea butter However, it's worth noting here that I am also someone who fervently believes in honest and open conversations around skincare, and that is hard to come by when it comes to luxury products. When we part with a lot of cash for something, we become determined to make it work. And this is where I come into the conversation.

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. Key ingredients include sweet almond oil, caprylic/capric triglyceride, meadowfoam seed oil, flaxseed oil, macadamia seed oil, and rice bran oil An anti-wrinkle moisturiser with a gel-cream texture that is said to improve hydration, leaving skin looking and feeling firmer and more radiant Elemis prioritizes using naturally-derived ingredients throughout their skincare line, but also includes skincare staples like vitamin C and peptides.
