Does anyone use Elemis products?

I enjoy watching Emer. She's on right now with Leah and she's always so passionate about Elemis. She's beautiful on the inside and out.

I saw a Try Me trio for 36.00 free shipping that I thought I'd try (Cleansing Balm Trio).

I bought some many years while on a cruise to Alaska. I wasn't wowed by it. Never bought more.

I tried an eye cream from them, wasn't impressed. I know there's only so much these potions can do, but since I didn't see results, can't justify the cost.

I've been using Elemis for probably 4 to 5 years now. I love it. I use the Marine cream, Overnight Matrix cream, the oil, and the oil cleanser. This TSV is perfect timing as I am on my last bit of Marine Cream. I have dry skin and it gives me great moisture.

I canceled all my AD’s a couple of months ago. I wasn't overly wowed by the products.

I really like the Marine Cream and the Cleansing Balm. I also really like Emer, she is passionate and very educated about the line....

@San Antonio Gal I tried several products but could not tolerate the scent. It was OVERWHELMING! I don't mind scent in products but theirs was extreme, for me.

I have been using Elemis for 5 years. My skin loves it. No more dry spots on my face. The cleansers do not dry the skin, especially important for me in the winter wind and the furnace drys my skin too. I use the balm cleanser but LOVE the dynamic resurfacing facial wash. I also like the pro-collagen vitality eye cream. When I need extra hydration, I use the plumping pillow facial or the superfood midnight facial. Today's prices are the best all year, even beats Amazon specials. For me, the products perform.

I tried their shampoo while on a cruise and purchased it thru their website when we got back. They have a lot of discounts once you sign up but not sure how that compares to Q pricing

I love their Marine Cream, @San Antonio Gal . My auto delivery just ran out and I am happy to try the night cream. I haven't had that before. I use the ultra rich and I don't notice a harsh smell. What fragrance there is dissipates quickly. Emer is correct when she says it doesn't take a lot of product and lasts a long time. I take it right around my eyes so I don't use another eye cream.

It has been a good replacement for the Josie products I used to use, but can no longer support her or her business.

I use the Marine Cream as long as I can get it at a price I'm okay with. I only use it for day since I got the one with SPF, so it lasts a long time. I still have plenty from my AD's so I'm skipping this one.

I bought a serum on clearance on Nordstrom Rack I think a year or so ago, but I didn't care for it. It is VERY fragrant.

Did not like the scent of their products. Very strong and did not disappear with time.

Probably----I've had so many samples of so many products over the years--don't remember it doing anything earth shattering I would remember.

@San Antonio Gal

I agree about Emer, she is lovely.

Also, I have ordered the original Collagen Marine cream a couple of times and did really love the texture of it and it left my skin really hydrated and moisturized with a really lovely finish.

But, I've decided that it's not for me because it doesn't have any real amazing ingredients that would justify the price in my opinion and it has a lot of fragrance.

My skin loves the ultra-rich so I ordered. Been using a few years now. Never had softer skin and also very few wrinkles.

I started using Elemis in 2021. My first product was the Cleansing Balm. It is fabulous and my go-to night and makeup removal cleanser. The Balm came with a sample of Collagen Marine Cream and I loved it! I started using that product because of the pricing of a TSV. I use the Ultra Rich and it I the first moisturizer I have used in a long time that has caused zero irritation to my skin. I can say the same thing about Collagen Marine Cream with SPF30 and my skin is extra sensitive to SPF ingredients. The fragrance of the products does not bother me at all. In fact, I would not even call it a strong fragrance as I hardly smell anything, but how something smells is a very individual thing.

I also use the Resurfacing Facial Wash which is one of the gifts with the TSV. It is a good cleanser with mild exfoliation. I like the Pro-Collagen Vitality Eye Cream and the Rose Oil, but both carry sticker shock ($$$) for .5-ounce sizes and I can think of other eye creams and facial oils that are just as good and won't dent my budget so much.

The most important thing, however, is the products work for me and my skin loves them. I've always had good skin and looked younger than my years, but I know it looks better than ever now, not just to me, but to others who see me regularly. Questions have ranged from "what products are you using" to "where did you go to have the work done? Elemis may not be the sole reason, but it's part of the equation of my improved complexion.

@curlygirl13 I have never used Elemis and I am trying to figure out if this is a line I should try. What do you think of the TSV?

TIA!

NO. They aren't cruelty-free

Hi @Tshirtgal -- Thanks for your review of this line. Do you think the TSV is a good value?

TIA!
