Beauty Bible Loves... ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Cleansing Balm

Whoah! Slow down, ELEMIS! You’re launching new versions of Pro-Collagen Cleaning Balm almost faster than we can get through them. So we’re currently juggling your neroli-scented Selfridges special edition which we wrote about back in November, here, with this newbie, Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Cleansing Balm.

If you’re put off by the idea that cherries might be a bit sweet and – well, young – then think again, meanwhile. (We admit to those preconceptions.) It’s definitely juicy, but the cherry-ness is more by way of an almondy, cherry-stone note, and the overall vibe still manages to be what we’d call ‘spa-like’ – in other words, right on-brand for ELEMIS.

Featuring skin-caring ingredients like elderberry and starflower oils, a nourishing complex by the name of Optimega and their famed marine algae ingredient, Padina Pavonica, it offers the make-up melting power that we love this product for, meanwhile (and which has earned this product repeated Beauty Bible Award wins) – though remember to add a splash of water and emulsify on your face, for the very best results. Follow with a hot, soaked cloth or flannel, and you’ll swoosh away every atom of make-up, while having a most enjoyable sensory experience.

So, life may not always be a bowl of cherries – but your cleansing routine can be.
