The ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm is a multi-purpose makeup remover and facial cleanser formulated to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and excess oil while maintaining skin hydration. This balm-to-oil cleanser transforms upon contact with water into a milky emulsion, allowing for a thorough yet gentle deep cleanse without stripping the skin’s natural barrier.

The formula features a blend of natural plant oils, including elderberry, jojoba, and chia seed oils, which help to soften and condition the skin during the cleansing process. The addition of padina pavonica, a brown algae extract, is included to support the skin’s moisture retention and promote a smooth, supple feel. The product is also enriched with vitamin E, an antioxidant that contributes to protecting the skin from environmental stressors.

This 20g size offers a convenient travel-friendly option or an opportunity to experience the product before committing to a larger size. The balm is suitable for most skin types, including normal, dry, combination, and sensitive skin, as it is formulated without harsh sulfates, parabens, or synthetic fragrances. It effectively removes both water-resistant and long-wearing makeup, including eye makeup, with minimal rubbing.

To use, a small amount is warmed between fingertips, massaged onto dry skin, then rinsed off with warm water. The texture is silky and non-greasy, leaving the skin feeling clean, soft, and refreshed. The Pro-Collagen range is designed to support a more resilient and balanced complexion over time, making this cleanser a practical addition to daily skincare routines. Its gentle formulation makes it suitable for both morning and evening use, and it is compatible with other skincare steps. No artificial colors or mineral oils are used, aligning with a preference for simpler, plant-based formulations.
