It isn’t pretty to beg.

But we’re about to do that.

Please, please, please, please, Elemis: make this a permanent part of your skincare collection. Because much as we love the luscious texture of the original Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, and much as we love its ability to magically melt make-up and nourish our skins, we love it even more when you infuse it with the fabulous scent of roses and mimosa.

When we remove our make-up with this – along with all the nasty city grime that the heatwave seems to have exacerbated – it's as if we’re doing so in the most glorious of English summer gardens.

So: we know it’s a limited edition. (More than that, a supersize limited edition suitably prettified by the illustrators Lily and Lionel, and in aid of Breast Cancer Care.) But we heartily encourage you to think about adding this as a permanent fixture in your line.

Because if not, tip us the wink and we’re stockpiling.

And if so? We’ll get up off our knees now.
