What it is

ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Marine Cream is a fragranced day cream with a lightweight gel-cream texture and silky-satin finish. ELEMIS recommends it for all skin types and describes it as a marine-algae moisturizer.

Key ingredients

  • Padina pavonica: ELEMIS says this brown macroalgae supports skin hydration.
  • Chlorella vulgaris: The brand says this green microalgae firms skin and decreases the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
  • Porphyridium cruentum: ELEMIS describes this red microalgae as helping maintain skin-barrier function.

How to use

Each morning after cleansing, gently massage a pea-sized amount onto the face, neck, and décolletage using upward strokes.

Who should be careful

The official ingredient list includes fragrance (parfum (Scent ingredient)), linalool (Scent ingredient), citronellol (Scent ingredient), limonene (Scent ingredient), and geraniol. Consider the listed fragrance components if avoiding scented skincare.

What the brand claims

ELEMIS says the cream significantly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in 14 days and delivers instant and 24-hour hydration.
