Melt away stubborn makeup, dissolve daily environmental impurities, and wrap your skin in a warm, decadent aromatic escape with the Elemis Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Cleansing Balm, an indulgent 3-in-1 cleansing treatment engineered to deeply nourish and restore.. Specially formulated for skin profiles experiencing dryness, surface buildup, environmental stress, and fine lines, this limited-edition twist on Elemis's iconic cleanser features a mouth-watering black cherry, almond, and sweet vanilla aromatic profile. Its luxurious texture transforms seamlessly through three distinct phases: a rich balm to dissolve cosmetics, a silky oil to loosen impurities, and a hydrating milk to rinse completely clean. By preserving the skin’s delicate moisture barrier while delivering deep marine hydration, it leaves your face feeling touchably soft, deeply cleansed, and youthfully radiant.. Benefits. Multi-Tasking 3-in-1 Action: Functions as a deeply nourishing daily cleanser, an effortless makeup remover, and a restorative 10-minute facial mask.. Melts Away Heavy Makeup: Effortlessly dissolves stubborn long-wear foundation, waterproof mascara, and daily SPF without stripping moisture.. Deeply Hydrates & Plumps: Infuses the skin matrix with essential plant lipids to smooth out fine dehydration lines and maintain surface elasticity.. Encourages Skin Renewal: Lifts away daily grime and dead cell buildup to reveal a brighter, smoother, and clearer canvas.. Decadent Gourmand Experience: Envelops your senses in a rich scent blend of dark juicy cherry, warm almond, and creamy vanilla for an ultra-cosy spa ritual.. The Science Behind the Formula. Elemis fuses high-potency marine botanicals with nutrient-rich plant oils to nourish and fortify the skin barrier:. Padina Pavonica: A unique Mediterranean brown algae rich in polysaccharides that supports the skin's feeling of hydration, elasticity, and firmness.. Elderberry Oil: Packed with essential fatty acids and natural antioxidants to smooth rough skin textures and protect against environmental stress.. Starflower (Borage) Oil: A rich natural source of Gamma Linolenic Acid (GLA) that deeply soothes, nourishes, and maintains skin barrier integrity.. Optimega™ Oil: A specialised blend of wheat germ and oat oils that reduces transepidermal water loss and restores softness to dry skin.. Why We Love It. We love the Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Cleansing Balm because it brings a cosy, gourmand twist to Elemis’s legendary cleansing ritual. It eliminates the tugging, drying, and tightness associated with standard face washes. The rich, golden balm glides over your face like velvet, lifting away every trace of makeup while enveloping your senses in the deep, sweet scent of ripe dark cherries and toasted almond. It rinses away cleanly with zero greasy residue, leaving your skin feeling cocooned, plump, and supple.. How To Use It. Use daily, every morning and evening as your primary cleanser or the luxurious first step in a double-cleanse routine.. Step One: Warm a pea-sized amount between dry palms to melt the balm into a rich oil.. Step Two: Massage gently over your dry face, neck, and décolletage in circular motions, dissolving makeup and surface buildup.. Step Three: Wet your fingertips with warm water to emulsify the oil into a soothing milk.. Step Four: Remove thoroughly using a warm, damp cleansing cloth, or rinse clean with warm water.. As a Restorative Mask: Smooth a generous layer over your face and leave on for 10 minutes to allow the lipids to hydrate, then rinse clean deeply.. Works Well With. To lock in your freshly cleansed hydration and boost skin firmness, follow your cleanse with the weightless, hydrating micro-droplets of the Elemis Pro-Collagen Rose Micro Serum.. Values.
