With the demand for results-driven skincare growing ever stronger, the Elemis’ Pro-Collagen range –formulated with incredible seaweeds and natural ingredients that deliver clinically-proven results – stands heads above the crowd for any spa operator serious about offering clients clinically-proven benefits.
Based around the ‘hero’ marine ingredient of padina pavonica – a unique algae sustainably sourced from the warm Mediterranean – Pro-Collagen products have gained a reputation for excellence among spas, customers and top beauty editors alike. And after a solid decade on the market, one pot of Elemis’ signature Pro-Collagen Marine Cream – which also contains antioxidant rich ginkgo biloba and chlorella – is now sold every nine seconds across the world!
Building on this remarkable success, Elemis has continued to innovate and expand its Pro-Collagen range so that operators can offer clients an exciting ‘texture library’ of skincare products that not only feel incredibly indulgent on the skin, but are also extraordinarily effective.
Extensive range
The signature anti-wrinkle moisturiser Pro-Collagen Marine Cream is famed for its light, velvety texture, delicate aromatic fragrance and impressive results. It’s been clinically proven* to significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in 14 days, and increase hydration levels by up to 177%, even after 12 hours.
The range includes the much-praised Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm with its aromatic blend of geranium, lavender, chamomile, eucalyptus, ho wood, orange and clove. Among the 14 products in the Pro-Collagen range, there is a also luxurious marine mask, a neck balm, a serum elixir, and a men’s moisturiser to address the needs of any client wanting to positively protect against the signs of ageing – and feel wonderfully pampered at the same time.
Spring 2017 saw the launch of the new Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30, while the much-anticipated Pro-Collagen Marine Oil makes this family of incredible products even stronger than before.
Nature and science remain at the core of all Elemis formulations, giving spas the assurance they are offering products with highly active, clinically-proven natural ingredients.
The recently-launched Pro-Collagen Marine Oil is no exception. It’s a powerfully effective oil which delivers both immediate and long-term results. Made with a trio of seaweeds chosen for their marine-charged properties, the oil delivers a potent moisture boost while reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Potent formula
The passionate co-founder and creator of Elemis Therapies, Noella Gabriel, says of the new launch: “With a potent and unique complex of anti-ageing seaweeds, the new Pro-Collagen Marine Oil delivers plumping moisturisation and nourishing omegas, all in a luxurious yet lightweight, easily-absorbed facial oil. This is the ideal way to step up your Pro-Collagen skincare routine. The protecting elements of seaweed meet a natural blend of nine essential oils, giving this the same beautiful signature aromatic as our bestselling cleansing balm, ensuring an unforgettable sensorial experience every day.”
Aside from the all-important padina pavonica to help improve skin elasticity, the oil’s active ingredients also include roaring water kelp. Sourced from the pristine Atlantic waters off the west coast of Ireland, this kelp contains essential minerals, vitamins and omegas to support the skin’s natural processes.
The oil also includes golden seaweed from the lower depths of the ocean in Brittany, which helps to protect the skin against external aggressors; UK-grown cold-pressed white poppy seed oil, which serves to plump the skin with moisture; and UK-grown Abyssinian seed oil with essential fatty acids to help smooth the appearance of the skin.
Outstanding results
In recent user trials, 91% of testers agreed the oil left their skin feeling moisturised and softer, while 90% agreed skin was left with a healthy glow.
Pro-Collagen professional treatments have also been a huge success story in the worldwide spa and beauty market, where businesses can count on Elemis to support their therapists with an unrivalled degree of training.
The best-selling signature Pro-Collagen Age Defy Facial, for example, incorporates targeted massage to encourage optimum cellular function for nourished, younger-looking skin. The facial has been clinically proven to dramatically reduce fine lines and wrinkles after just one treatment.
Among a group of 30 women aged 40 to 75 who received a professional Pro-Collagen treatment, 97% agreed the treatment dramatically reduced lines and wrinkles and left the complexion looking more vibrant and youthful. Meanwhile, 93% agreed the treatment left skin looking more youthful, with improved skin elasticity and firmness.
The power of Pro-Collagen has been proven again and again – both in clinical and user trial results – and has more than 45 skincare awards to its name. Spa operators can be confident they are investing their time and resources in a range that can bring immediate and longer-term results to a wide age-range of clientele – from millennials to baby boomers.
And as a passionate innovator of skincare, operators can count on Elemis to deliver exciting products and results for many decades to come.
