Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

...£64 (yes really) using all Elemis products and when it was finished my skin felt really wonderful. The therapist then wrote me out a 'prescription' for the products she recommended for my skin. If I'd bought them all they would have come to a incredible £168 and there was no way I was spending that sort of money so I thought I'd treat myself to one product only. I decided on the S.O.S Emergency Cream as this is a more specialised product and I thought ...

Elemis do not test on animals. Made in England.

I like lavendar but this is really really strong. It has ...

Review of Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

I have used Elemis on and off for about 3 years after being treated to a fab facial as a birthday present, thanks a lot Mum!. I am one of those people who the advertisers must love, because I am seduced into buying the latest, new improved, better than ever cream/lotion/cleanser etc, hence I have never been loyal to any particular brand. But not any more, I have finally found a facial moisturiser that calms and settles my spot prone skin. Elemis ...
...when you have a dull complexion and times of irritation and redness. I have a typical combination skin - dry patches, blackheads, spots and red blotches, and for years I have tried everything on the market to try and clear it up, with limited success. I saw this cream advertised on a popular shopping channel and thought I'd give it a go, as I previously said I love trying new products! At first I used it as directed as my daily moisturiser and night ...

Review of Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

...use a big range of Elemis skin care products and have found them to be brilliant. My skin is smoother and clearer than it ever has been. I have been using Elemis for nearly two years and just love it. However, the S.O.S. cream is one of the few products from their range that I feel does not live up to what it says. The product claims to soothe and balance sensitive skin, it is to be applied to areas of high colour and to irritated parts of the face ...
...it was quite expensive. Elemis S.O.S. made no difference what so ever to my skin apart from making it feel quite sticky as it takes a long time to obsorb. Sometimes when I apply it before going to bed I would wake up in the morning and it would still be sitting sticky on my skin. Just in case you are thinking I must be applying far too much of it I'm not!!(Had to get that cleared up!!) I would like to say something positive about this product because ...

Review of Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

Elemis S.O.S. cream, what do I think, well brilliant! It certainly works for me anyway. I use it when my skin has gone blochy and when I get spots, I use it once a day or twice when my skin is really bad. This is a product which requires a little dedication, using it every now and then doesn't really seem to work, I'll use it for a week every day before I put my makeup on or just before bed. I use an elemis cleansers and toner as well as their mosturisers, ...
...If you have SENSETIVE SKIN elemis is a must! I am one of those people who has tried everything but my skin reacted to them all until elemis, I'm not sure if it is just because the best of things in their products or because they don't really use mineral oils and nasty harsh things like that but believe me when I say the whole range is brilliant! Anyway back to the cream, it is very true it this cream does have a strong smell, but it wears of quite ...

Review of Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

...a FANTASTIC product !!! Elemis SOS is must in any woman's bathroom. It lasts a long time as you only need a small amount. You can use it as a daily moisturiser however I use it for emergencies, like the name suggests. There are times when my skin is just not looking at its best, maybe it's a bit dehydrated or it's just not as good as normal, change of wheather, central heating or air conditioning can damage the normal Ph of your skin. When I feel ...
...few days or as long as needed (sometimes just one application is enough to return my skin to its normal appearance!) and the balance is restored. It smells at lavander, when you put it on, you get all the benefits of lavader oil, it relaxes and soothes and it makes you feel great. The cream is of a very thick consistency and not too easily absorbed therefore to apply it you have to pump a small amount on your fingers or hand and rub it for a few ...

Review of Elemis S.O.S Skin Emergency Cream

As a new user of the Elemis Skin care range I was slightly worried about trying new products as my skin tends to breakout a lot. But as my sister raves about this range I thought Id give it a go. I have only been using it for just over 3 weeks and WOW.. it really does work and has helped clam down my hormonal breakouts. Use it around that time of the month and you will zap those nasty spots !! Lush... :) thanks Elemis x ...
