ElemisULTRA SMART Pro-Collagen Night Genius | Powerful Anti-Wrinkle Rich Recovery Cream Replenishes, Rejuvenates, and Firms Skin Overnight

Nice light scent feels great to apply and wear. Creamy consistency and slightly thicker than the Marine Collagen night cream. I have a 66 year old face and it seems to help in conjunction with the lovely Elemis cleansing balm (I prefer the Naked/unscented variety). I bought this with a work bonus via Amazon Gift Card as it is pretty expensive, not sure if I would spend that much again as the regular Marine night cream is good too. I typically buy all the Elemis products off Elemis dot com as I can often shop their 30% off sales but it was easier to buy this off Amazon due to the gift card.

If you've tried the ELEMIS pro collagen cream for the daytime, this is basically the night time version. The scent is identical, just toned down slightly, and the color is golden instead of white. It's just as, or maybe a little more moisturizing, and is easily absorbed by the skin. You really don't need to use a lot for small wrinkles.Unlike the daytime one, this comes in a small jar and you kinda scoop the amount you need - a light dab is sufficient, really. The daytime one is like a pump bottle.

For $300 a jar, anyone's expectations will be sky-high for this cream. I like this product quite a bit. It's a luxuriously-packaged item. The cream itself is rich. Absorbs quickly and with no residue. Leaves my sensitive skin looking well cared for. It works especially well together with the serum from the same line. It's impossible to prove if all the anti-wrinkle claims are true, but I know, for myself, I enjoy this product enough to keep on using until it's gone. Maybe it a couple of months I will notice some significant improvements in my skin?

ELEMIS ULTRA SMART Pro-Collagen Night GeniusIt kills me to only give a cream like this 4 stars but there is nothing amazing about this cream. I have super dry and sensitive skin and this is full of hydrating oils for my dry skin but it also has a ton of fragrance and fragrant ingredients. I think if you have oily skin, this would be a disaster for you. It contains algae extracts, antioxidants, and hyaluronic acid in a silicone base with a lot of essential oils. Yes, it feels wonderful but it is also a bit on the greasy side. The scent reminds me of soap and is a bit irritating.This package does not come safety sealed and there is no expiration date. It should be used within 6 months of opening. It comes in an oversized plastic jar that is quite heavy and gives an optical illusion that it contains more than 50ml as labeled. It is made in the UK. You also get a cute little plastic scoop to get out that proper amount.#alcohol-freeKey IngredientsAntioxidant: Tocopheryl Acetate, Tocopherol, Punica Granatum Seed OilSkin-identical ingredient: Glycerin, SqualaneSoothing: Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) OilALL INGREDIENTS BY FUNCTIONAntimicrobial/antibacterial: Chlorphenesin, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) OilAntioxidant: HydroxyacetophenoneBuffering: Citric AcidChelating: Disodium EDTA, Tetrasodium Glutamate DiacetateEmollient: Caprylic/​Capric Triglyceride, Cetyl Alcohol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Dimethicone, Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Squalane, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Stearic Acid, Eicosapentaenoic Acid, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Seed Oil, Punica Granatum Seed OilEmulsifying: Glyceryl Stearate SE, Phosphatidylcholine, Polysorbate 20, Sorbitan IsostearateMoisturizer/humectant: Glycerin, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Maris Aqua/​Sea Water/​Eau De Mer, Propanediol, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate, Sorbitol, Butylene Glycol, Glyceryl Acrylate/​Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan) ExtractPerfuming: Fragrance (Parfum), Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Benzyl Salicylate, Limonene, Pelargonium Graveolens Oil, Linalool, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Acacia Decurrens Flower Extract, Jasminum Officinale (Jasmine) Flower Extract, Geraniol, Iris Pallida Root ExtractPreservative: Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sodium Benzoate, Potassium Sorbate, Sorbic AcidSolvent: Aqua/​Water/​Eau, C15-19 Alkane, Maris Aqua/​Sea Water/​Eau De Mer, Propanediol, Butylene Glycol, LimoneneSurfactant/cleansing: Polysorbate 20Viscosity controlling: Cetyl Alcohol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Stearic Acid, Xanthan Gum, Polyisobutene, Bentonite, Butylene Glycol, Glyceryl Acrylate/​Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan) ExtractIngredientsAqua/Water/Eau, Glycerin, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Glyceryl Stearate SE, Cetyl Alcohol, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Dimethicone, C15-19 Alkane, Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Squalane, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Bulbine Frutescens Leaf Juice, Maris Aqua/Sea Water/Eau De Mer, Fragrance (Parfum), Polyacrylate-13, Phenoxyethanol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Hydroxyacetophenone, Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Stearic Acid, Xanthan Gum, Chlorphenesin, Polyisobutene, Disodium EDTA, Citric Acid, Tocopherol, Bentonite, Propanediol, Sodium Acetylated Hyaluronate, Sorbitol, Butylene Glycol, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Padina Pavonica Thallus Extract, Phosphatidylcholine, Polysorbate 20, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Glyceryl Polyacrylate, Chlorella Vulgaris Extract, Ethylhexylglycerin, Sorbitan Isostearate, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer, Benzyl Salicylate, Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan) Extract, Limonene, Docosahexaenoic Acid, Pelargonium Graveolens Oil, Linalool, Eicosapentaenoic Acid, Alpha-Isomethyl Ionone, Hydrolyzed Rhodophyceae Extract, Sodium Benzoate, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate, Daucus Carota Sativa (Carrot) Seed Oil, Acacia Decurrens Flower Extract, Commiphora Myrrha Oil, Jasminum Officinale (Jasmine) Flower Extract, Punica Granatum Seed Oil, Rosa Damascena Flower Extract, Plankton Extract, Geraniol, Potassium Sorbate, Arginine Ferulate, Sorbic Acid, Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Flower Oil, Iris Pallida Root Extract.

This is a beautiful cream. It is a generous size jar and comes with a small spatula to get product out hygienically. Although this came in the box, I was able to tuck it under the lid and the little cover so that I didn't use it. It absorbs very well and has a very nice subtle scent. The packaging is just gorgeous. Very happy.

This stuff LOOKS and SMELLS great. Two things off the bat. First, it is going to leave your face moisturized all through the night. Secondly, your "significant other" is going to compliment you on how nice your face smells! As a mid-30s male, I've never really cared much about how my face "looked" -- wrinkles and crow's feet creeped up on me over time. In steps Elemis -- which become part of my daily routine for the past month. What I noticed after a week or so of use was that my face stayed moisturized throughout the night, even with a small bit of cream on a single finger that I used to apply across my face. Used in conjunction with the eye serums and day-time moisturizer, this thing really works.I'm now about a month into using the product, and I've even noticed a reduction in my crow's feet and lines that hitherto I just accepted as part of life as I aged. In all fairness, I have specifically been using the eye serums (pro-collagen), which I believe was the determining factor in reducing the crow's feet, but the night time moisturizer is really a nice "cherry on top." This cream has a soft, velvet-like texture and really superb fragrance that will land you compliments when its time for bed.My biggest complaint, as with the entire Elemis line, is simply the cost. While this will last awhile, especially if you use sparingly, it is hardly a "cost effective" approach. Marketing, packaging (the bottle is beautiful), and the name of the brand are all going to eat into your wallet. At the end of the day, you have to decide if the benefits justify the price point? As for myself, I'll probably forgo the moisturizers (despite really enjoying them) and stick with just the eye serums. If you can afford the whole line, however, you should go for it!
