Elemis
Elemis is a British brand of spa products. Elemis lists anti-aging solutions as well as eye care, lip care, masks, sunscreen, facial cleansers, toners, moisturizers and products for either gender as their main product line. Their products are created and a good amount of their ingredients are derivatives of natural botanicals, essential oils, organic extracts, medicinal herbs, seaweed extracts (boosts collagen) and natural emulsifiers. Known as a “British luxury spa and skin care brand”, Elemis was founded in 1989 and has a solid 21 years of experience to lend credit to their name.
Elemis claims to have “three key principles” and they are as follows: defined by nature, led by science, and a personalized lifestyle prescription. All Elemis products are stated to be free of animal based collagen, mineral oil, alcohol, detergents, silicones and synthetic perfumes. Elemis products are not tested on animals. Elemis products range in price from $23 to $300 or more and do not offer a money back guarantee. This is something that set off slight warning bells in our ears. It is odd for a company as well-established as this, and with such a steep price tag, to not offer a money back guarantee for the penny-shy first time client. It shows a lack of confidence that we find wholly unattractive.
We appreciate that Elemis does not use animal based ingredients and it is convenient that the official website offers an “ingredient glossary” so that you can research each element of whichever product you are buying. Their website does not, however, boast any links to customer reviews and that is another red flag. If a company has anything to be proud of it is always displayed in a customer review section of their site. At this time we would suggest looking carefully at other products to see if they have a more reasonable price tag or, at least, a money back guarantee should their product not work for you.
