The peak detoxifying times for the body are between 10 pm to 2 am, that’s why skin’s regeneration process is at its optimum during the hours of sleep.
Elemis Pro-Collagen Oxygenating Night Cream is designed to replenish oxygen lost during the day as a direct result of damaging environmental aggressors. Formulated with a powerful combination of concentrated actives including Padina Pavonica and Anti-Ageing Hexapeptide, this moisture-rich cream gel claims to stimulate collagen synthesis, increase oxygen levels by up to 41%* and yet provides anti-oxidant protection.
This lovely textured night cream focuses on boosting oxygen in the skin, which then triggers the cells to detoxify and regenerate. Oxygen is essential to keep the cellular activity functioning well. This ensures healthy, younger looking skin and minimises free radical damage. An oxygenating product should not just providing oxygen molecules to the skin as this can actually promote free radical development. It ought to be able to improve skin respiration.
Elemis has created a combination of extracts from marine algae, which not only promotes the utilization of oxygen, but brings benefits of various minerals and vitamins needed for healthy functioning skin. These algae also ensure hydration to the tissues and provide calcium for collagen regeneration and cellular communication.
The jojoba, shea butter, sesame, avocado and wheat germ extracts offer the EFA (essential fatty acid) benefits to ensure cell membrane integrity and free radical defense, as well as incredible emolliency.
This cream also contains some of those incredible peptides that facilitate collagen and elastin regeneration. Give your skin a month (time for cellular turnover), and it will show you a revitalized, healthier, younger looking skin.

This night cream has a buttery texture and offers exceptional cushioning to the skin. Despite the creamier formulation, it’s rather well absorbed and non occlusive.
I didn’t have any breakout while i was using it nightly for 2 weeks ( I was basically slapping on this cream rather heavily, as I have few of this thanks to the festival gift set ).
My skin feels firmer & smoother with this cream. I find this more subtly scented than Pro-collagen marine cream.
