There are chemical exfoliators and physical exfoliants. What’s the difference? Physical exfoliators like Elemis Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator utilize grains, particles or natural beads. So, these exfoliants lift dead skin and other debris from the surface through a mechanical action. Usually this action is massaging the exfoliator on your skin with your fingertips.
Whereas, a chemical exfoliator uses Enzymes and Acids, such as Alpha Hydroxy Acids (AHAs) and Beta Hydroxy Acids (BHAs) for exfoliating. I recently starting using ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator, and I’m obsessed.
About ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator $78
Give your glow a boost with Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator. This gentle physical exfoliator uses eco-friendly cellulose beads combined with a trio of skin-softening oils, including Starflower, Elderberry and Optimega oils, to sweep away dead skin cells while locking in moisture to increase the feeling of smoothness.
Rose & Mimosa Waxes soften and comfort the skin, and the calming aroma inspires a spa-like cleansing experience. After use, skin looks and feels refreshed, less congested and smooth, and makeup can be applied more effectively. This glow-boosting exfoliator shares the same blend of oils, waxes, and aromatic as the best-selling Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm.
My results with ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator:
First up is the amazing scent of ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator. As soon as I took the cap off, I inhaled deeply and I had flashbacks to a 5 star facial in a swanky hotel spa. The aroma of ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator is just mesmerizing. No doubt that is due to the amazing aromatic scents in the formula.
Now, to the nitty-gritty about this exfoliation. This gentle physical exfoliator uses eco-friendly cellulose beads, which means that even the most sensitive skin care benefit from ELEMIS Pro-Collagen Glow Boost Exfoliator.
When I use this exfoliator, I tend to get carried away with massaging into my skin. But, through out all that over-massaging, I have no irritation to my skin. My skin just glows after using this ELEMIS exfoliator, and that makes me soooo happy. The results make me even happier. Besides glowing skin, my pores are clean and the surface of my skin is smooth.
