Elemis BIOTEC Skin Energising Cleanser‘Wash your face with soap water’ was often the mantra for our grandmothers, but today there are better, gentler ways to take the dirt of the day off your skin, so we’re going to look at some of the excellent products on the site that we think past generations would’ve approved of.

The Dermalogica Intensive Moisture Cleanser is a light creamy product that cleans the skin as well as nourishing it. Perfect for dry faces it takes away dirt and make-up and thanks to lush coconut and murumuru seed butter skin gets stronger and is soothed as well as being refreshed thanks to palmarosa and jasmine.

If you are looking for something with a little oomph, look no further than the Elemis BIOTEC Skin Energising Cleanser. This offers optimum performance, because it is packed with a trio of acids mixed with an energising electrolyte solution and the results are explosive. The unique deep cleansing action reduces surface oils and impurities to rebalance your complexion leaving it fresh and revived.

The Decleor Bi-phase Caring Cleanser and Make-Up Remover is powered by a scientific blend of virgin botanical oils and floral water, and we love it. This revolutionary formula pampers the skin as it removes make-up (even stubborn, waterproof lip liners) and leaves it feeling soft, plump, soothed, and radiant.

For ultra clean, healthy skin we suggest the Dermalogica PreCleanse which is a fav of the pro’s. This plant-based cleansing oil breaks through the excess sebum, sunscreen, waterproof make-up, and residual products that build up during the day and make our skin look dull. Rice bran and vitamin E oils have been added to create a gentle blend that can be used around the eye area so that panda eyes in the morning will be a thing of the past.

Jan Marini Bioglycolic Facial Cleanser is totally soap free and leaves skin soft, smooth and more refined. It is non irritating, easily rinses away and because it comes with natural sorbitol from berries it leaves your skin soft and hydrated. This cleanser has added glycolic acid and the deep cleansing action makes it perfect for acne-prone skin, but don’t use this if you are pregnant or trying to conceive.

Balms aren’t just for your lips! The Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm dissolves the make-up, grime and pollution that can layer up and make us look tired. All skin types can benefit from the rose, elderberry and starflower extracts that have been mixed with delicate oils because together, they supercharge your complexion and leave it glowing.

If you have any questions about the best soap free products for you, let us know and we would love to help.

Elemis Quiet Mind Temple Balm

We know you already cleanse, tone and moisturise morning and night (you do, don’t you?), but you can also add a balm into the mix if you really want to keep your skin soft and supple.

Face and body balms give your skin extra love so why not treat yourself to one of these luxury formulas and see if it works for you.

The Decleor Magnolia Youthful Night Balm is great if you want plumper, firmer skin which has a fresh, luminous glow when you wake in the morning. This slumber specific balm is made from a blend of 100% natural ingredients including Shea Butter, Magnolia Essential Oil and Rose, all of which your skin will love.

At Pure Beauty we are massive fans of the Dermalogica Precleanse Balm. This is a really special deep-cleansing balm-to-oil cleanser that melts into the skin, and as it does, it gently removes excess oil, sunscreen and make-up. Apricot Oil, which is rich in fatty acids, has been mixed with essential oils which come together and not only ensure skin is salon smooth, but also refreshes the senses and clears the mind.

It’s the powerful vitamin complex in the Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm, that protects against moisture loss, something we all need from time to time. Purple Orchid, Noni and Acai have been added into the mix and whether you use this as a moisturiser, radiance booster, or primer, we think you will like what you see.

If your body is feeling dry and tight when you come out of the shower, we would suggest letting the Decleor Nourishing Body Balm loose on your limbs. Thanks to Frankincense Essential Oil, Shea Butter, Tamanu and Macadamia Oils, this gorgeous body balm helps soothe dry feeling skin and make it come alive again. Apply once or twice a day by warming the balm in the palm of your hands and your skin will feel nourished in no time.

Whatever skin type you have, we think it will adore the Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm as much as we do. This gentle but powerful cleansing balm dissolves make-up, dirt and pollutants as your skin is being intensely cleansed, nourished and renewed. When you pat your face dry, all you are left with is a healthy skin and a big smile.

Harmony, tranquillity and relaxation don’t always come easily in modern-day life, but they can if you use the Elemis Quiet Mind Temple Balm. Packed with a powerful blend of essential oils, just a few drops, massaged into the temples can take you from stressed out, to chilled out, in minutes. Patchouli, Lemon, Eucalyptus and Organic Indian Menthol come together to enhance feelings of positivity, and we think you will be hooked from the word go.

You might not think a balm would work for your eyes, but we are here to tell you that it really can. The popular Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Eye Balm brightens and refreshes tired eyes. A cooling applicator means that skin soothing Chamomile and Arnica as well as Bird of Paradise Flower and omega-rich Apricot Kernel Oil nourishes the delicate eye contour area and optical blurring powders help reduce the dark circles that can take your confidence away.

For more information, or to try samples, why not get in touch and see how a balm could enhance your beauty routine.

Elemis Lip Revive

Chewing gum, tea and toothpaste are probably what spring to mind when it comes to mint, but thanks to the cooling properties of this multi-talented herb, it is also the key ingredient in many beauty products.

We have had a look at just a few of the ones we love here at Pure Beauty and think you might like them too.

The Elemis Devils Mint Body Scrub gently cleanses the body, whilst removing dead cells, leaving skin feeling smooth and this is why it is on our list of bathroom must-haves. Packed with Seaplant Particles, Devils Apron Seaweed and Peppermint Essential Oil when applied to damp skin using circular motions, the results are impressive. Especially effective on problem areas like your feet, knees and elbows, continued use will leave your skin looking better than ever so you will want to show it off by the pool or on the beach.

Dermalogica Special Cleansing Gel is a soap-free, foaming gel designed to remove the impurities on our skin without disturbing the natural moisture balance, and that is no easy task. Calming Balm Mint and Lavender Extracts soothe the skin, while Quillaja Saponaria foams away dirt and toxins. Simply apply a small amount of lathered gel to wet skin and concentrate on areas of congestion and oiliness. Then rinse with tepid water and repeat to ensure toxins and debris have been washed away and skin is revived and happy once again.

Together with Geranium, Lavender, Chamomile, Eucalyptus, Ho Wood, Orange and Clove, Mint is one of the ingredients in the Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm. This powerful, deep cleansing balm also contains Rose and Mimosa waxes which are infused with nourishing Elderberry, Starflower and Optimega oils and supercharged with anti-ageing algae – wow! After using to remove the dirt of the day, skin is intensely cleansed, nourished and renewed leaving you with a glowing complexion and a smile.

Formulated without artificial fragrances and colours, the Dermalogica Multi-Active Toner helps to condition your skin and prepare it for when you apply your moisturiser. Arnica and Cucumber extracts help keep skin smooth and refreshed, while Lavender purifies it and Balm Mint cools and softens it. Add a bottle to your gym bag or suitcase when you go on holiday and it really will help to keep your skin calm when the heat is on.

If waking up is a hard job for you, why not jump into the shower with the Elemis Sharp Shower Body Wash? This fresh, invigorating body wash is packed with both Spearmint and Peppermint essential oils as well as Nettle, Wild Marjoram, Marshmallow, Chamomile and Thyme which are all wrapped up in a Soya, Wheat and Milk Protein base. As well as you skin being cleaned your senses are woken and your brain is alert for the day ahead.

If you want to care for your lips, you need to add the Elemis Lip Revive to your basket. Sunflower Oil helps to moisturise, nourish and regenerate the skin, while Beeswax repairs it. Wild Mint has been added for cooling and soothing, while Peppermint refreshes. This really is a mint fuelled pocket rocket of skin goodness that tastes great too!

An Elemis Cleanser For Every Skin Type

Royalty-free image

Elemis is a brand which has something for just about every skin type imaginable, and knows the value of a proper skincare routine. The best place to start is with a cleanser, but if you’ve got anything other than “normal” skin, you’ll know that finding the right one can be tricky. Never fear, because Elemis has you covered, and we stock a cleanser for every skin type. Here’s 5 of the best:

Dry skin

Dry skin is often one of the trickier skin types to cleanse, because many cleansers contain ingredients which dry the skin out even more. Opting for an hydrating cleanser such as Elemis Rehydrating Rosepetal Cleanser will allow you to remove all traces of daily dirt and grime from your complexion without stripping away the natural oils and giving your skin a wash of moisture in the process.

Oily Skin

Oily skin can often lead to blocked pores and congestion, which in turn can affect the skin’s own ability to balance itself. Elemis Balancing Lime Blossom Cleanser is specifically designed to rebalanced problematic skin and uses lime blossom, lecithin and vitamin E help to balance excess surface oils and soothe the skin.

Normal skin

If you’ve got normal skin, this means that you don’t generally suffer with dryness, oiliness or sensitivity and can usually use any products. Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm is actually suitable for all skin types, and contains elderberry, starflower and optimega oils as well as anti-ageing algae to melt away the day’s make-up and grime.

Sensitive skin

Having sensitive skin is a bit like dealing with an angry toddler – give it too much or too little attention and it’s going to throw a tantrum either way! Sensitive skin requires products which are gentle enough to clean away dirt without affecting the skin’s delicate balance, and also needs to be able to soothe skin which is already over-sensitised. Elemis Sensitive Cleansing Wash is a rich cleansing foam to condition and moisturise the face during cleansing, and also purifies, soothes and calms the skin, cleansing without soap to protect the skin’s natural acid mantle.

Dull skin

If your skin is looking dull and lacklustre, you’ll need a cleanser which can buff away the top layer of dead cells, give you a fix of nutrients and use a pre-biotic to leave your skin looking radiant. Elemis Superfood Facial Wash is rich in vitamins and omega 3 and 6 essential fatty acids, and cleanses, nourishes and revitalises dull skin to reveal a more glowing complexion. It’s also vegan friendly.

Celebrity Fans of Elemis

Sometimes, a brand comes along which is both impressive enough to be used by celebrities and the super-rich, but is also affordable by us mere mortals, and Elemis is definitely one of those brands. Although it’s prices aren’t as prohibitive as other high-end products, there are a lot of well-known fans of the brand, so we thought we’d take a look at some of the more high-profile fans of Elemis and exactly which products they use.

Cara Delevingne – Elemis Pro-Collagen Hydra-Gel Eye Masks

Cara Delevingne is a model and actress who’s graced the runways for the likes of Burberry, Mulberry and Dolce and Gabbana, as well as starring in huge hits such as Suicide Squad on the big screen. Her make-up artist for the Suicide Squad promotional tour Romy Soleimani says “For Cara, all week long I used Elemis pro-collagen hydra-gel eye masks under her eyes while I was doing her make-up. Then I would peel it off and do her skin. It’s a great way of not only catching fallen shadow, but it also refreshes and plumps. Some mornings we started at 5am”.

Natalie Dormer – Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm

Natalie Dormer is most famous for her role as Margaery Tyrell, the young but ruthless wannabe queen in Game of Thrones. Her role is a tricky one and (spoiler alert!) latterly quite gruelling, but she swears by Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm for keeping her skin clean and fresh. The star says “The best way to take my make-up off is with Elemis’ cleansing balm. I rub it all over my face, then use a flannel to wipe off”.

Victoria Beckham – Elemis Japanese Camellia Body Oil Blend

Victoria Beckham (sorry, but she’ll always be Posh Spice to us!) is such a huge fan of this oil from Elemis that she’s tweeted about it several times and has even mentioned it in her fashion book. She credits its use with her complete lack of stretch marks even after FOUR pregnancies and says “I have used this through every pregnancy, it’s amazing”.

Christina Hendricks – BIOTEC Facials

Christina Hendricks is well-known for her classic, vintage look and has skin which would make almost any woman jealous. She’s a huge fan of Elemis BIOTEC facials, using some of the most powerful products from the BIOTEC range. Her facialist, Georgia Louise Vassanelli, is one of the most sought-after skincare experts and says “My team and I love offering the ELEMIS BIOTEC facials; They are the perfect balance of science and nature, the right amount of hands-on massage with the sophistication of the machine, backed up with powerful chemistry in ELEMIS’s newly formulated professional products”.
