Elemis?

CassieJumped · 04/01/2022 21:53

Spent some time in a spa over Christmas holiday. They did a mini session where you gave yourself a facial and they used Elemis products. It was so nice and all smelt amazing.
Is it a good brand? Is it worth the money. I'm tempted to buy the mini versions but honestly unless it's amazing it's too expensive for me. I do want to use better skincare though.

Depending on where you are based they have a store at Bicester Village

The papaya enzyme face mask is really good. I’ve bought from Amazon on the deals but the stuff lasts fir ages. Definitely worth it.

PenguinLove1 · 06/01/2022 19:55

Im an Elemis junkie and have most of the products- ive tried switching to others over the years as it is expensive but i really dont think anything else is as good and always go back.

Top products in my opinion-
Cleansing balm - there js a naked unscented version for the PP who said it was too scented, I like the Rose one personally.
Pro collagen day and night creams
Antioxidant serum
Superfood face oil - this is amazing
Loads of their masks are good- thousand flowers, papaya enzyme and berry mask are my particular favourites
The new superfood nighttime pink tub - forget the full name, is amazing too

As others have said join the qvc mailing list or keep an eye on their facebook page, when they do a special value set it's normally great value. Also keep an eye on amazon for the individual products, sometimes they are reduced for a day or two at a time which is great

@KiloWhat

I didn't like the cleansing balm it was too fragrances for me. The creams are nice
Theres a naked version of this now which is unscented
PenguinLove1 · 06/01/2022 19:57

Ive just checked and most elemis products have 25% off on amazon at the moment

DrWankincense · 06/01/2022 19:59

I resisted for ages due to the cost but I think it lasts well and works for me.
Superfood range is great.
The cleansing balm does wonders for my skin.
Papaya enzyme mask is good but the tri-acid mask and resurfacing mask are amazing.
I buy when it's on offer and scout the websites. The first lot I bought direct and got a lovely bag with 10 travel sizes in it.
I have tried a lot of skin care products over the years and Elemis is the only one that's ticked all the boxes and worked consistently for me.
I don't work for them Grin.

@PenguinLove1 ooh thank you!

MarshaBradyo · 06/01/2022 20:19

It’s really nice

greyinganddecaying · 06/01/2022 20:29

It is my favourite. I got a great deal from the Center Parcs spa shop on their hydra range a couple of years ago.

evtheria · 06/01/2022 20:33

MiL is trained to do facials for several nice skincare brands, but she always requests Elemis (the marine stuff) for her bday/Christmas gifts. I’m sure there are better lines out there, but suppose this is ‘affordable luxe’. I also purchase it from QVC when they usually do a very generous set for December.

AgrippinaT · 06/01/2022 20:35

Yes. Just yes.

I use the marine collagen cream, which is pricey AF but I my skin is like silk.

I also use the superfood glow primer if I'm wearing make up that day.

I'm another one who often buys the set at Christmas from QVC. I didn't get last years but it's still available - more expensive now than it was in December but still a really good price. I'm tempted now...

I just bought their Pro Radiance Cream Cleanser 200 ml duo for £36. On QVC. Fantastic value and it is really good quality. My skin looks noticeably brighter and fresher.

I use a lot of their products. Look Fantastic and Ebay help the cost.

Their primer is amazing too.

I have tried moving onto other brands or mixing and matching but always regret it.

Elemis customer care do a really great service too as if you have particular concerns you can email them.

This is good value if you like Elemis (not for me but know lots who do).

Toottooot · 20/01/2022 16:30

Brand alley often have good deals on Elemis. Not the full range of products but I’ve been happy with what I’ve seen on their site.

OhCobblers · 23/01/2022 10:54

Does anyone know a good site (not eBay!) to sell brand new Elemis items? Certain things I can't use in a gift bag?

Facebook Marketplace is always good for this kinda thing
Milomonster · 23/01/2022 13:51

I bought the collagen cream once and it was fab. I’m a Sisley devotee and so only use their products, but the Elemis cream would be next choice.

Imabitbusyatthemoment · 23/01/2022 13:57

Has anyone tried the Aldi Elemis knock offs? I’ve seen them recommended highly on here, but wonder what users of the real thing think?

shewhomustbeEbayed · 23/01/2022 18:50

I like the original ( yellow ) cleansing balm and buy from ebay. I start the day doing a hot cloth cleanse but then use Beauty Pie for serum and moisturiser.

ballsdeep · 23/01/2022 19:06

@TotheletterofthelawTHELETTER

I love Elemis. It’s done wonders for my skin. I use the pro collagen cleansing balm, soothing apricot toner and the overnight pillow plumping facial stuff. Definitely get it from QVC, good deals and option to pay in instalments if needed.
That's exactly what I use 😂😂😂
WildFlowerBees · 23/01/2022 21:46

Elemis is a great brand, join the QVSell fb page lots of people there sell their excess at a fair price make sure they include the batch codes, always loads of Elemis on there.

CassieJumped · 08/02/2022 21:44

Just spotted these on qvc. Debating getting them but could do with some advice on which one or both etc!

My preference is the dynamic resurfacing, lovely products. Don't like the superfood range at all.
