Luckily last week I won a competition over on a QVC Twitter account which meant I won the Elemis British Botanicals Face and Body Experience Set, which is priced at £80 on QVC, although RRP can be up to £180! I was over the moon to win as I'd never tried any Elemis products before.
Obviously with only having it a week or so I can only give first impressions, however I've been so impressed with all the products so far. Starting off with the British Botanicals Body and Shower Creams. The scents are very classic, lavender, chamomile etc, which aren't necessarily my cup of tea, they're a little bit nanna-ish, but the products are super creamy and feel great on the skin.
I love a cream cleanser and this Pro Radiance Cleanser reminds me a lot of the Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish in terms of consistency. It has a gorgeous scent and it leaves my skin really fresh and squeaky clean! The same goes for the Soothing Apricot Toner, I haven't been using it long enough to see any changes to my skin but it's gorgeous as a spritzer, super refreshing!
Also in the kit was a Papaya Enzyme Facial Peel, I've only used this once, but I'm impressed. I tend to shy away from exfoliators, not really sure whim but this one is a super smooth cream and you just leave it on like a face mask. My skin didn't feel stripped afterwards but it looked brighter and felt softer. Finally the Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, this is an anti-aging cream and being 21 I suppose I don't really need it yet (although some say it's never to early to start!). I can't comment on lasting effects yet but this sits nicely under makeup and gives a nice hydrated feeling!
Do you have any Elemis product recommendations?
