My Beauty Obsessions

Elemis Pro-Collagen Anniversary Collection

beautybonus5 Comments

Today I want to highlight a truly wonderful value set from Elemis. My longtime readers know that I am a huge fan of Elemis Pro-Collagen Marine Cream. It is a lightweight anti-aging moisturizer that makes my skin look fantastic. I think it is supposed to be worn during the day but I use it as my night cream when it gets so hot and humid down here in south Texas. My other favorite Elemis product is the Pro-Collagen Eye Renewal but I don’t often purchase it for myself because it is $99 (more than double what I’m normally willing to pay for an eye cream), but I love it because it has a light gel consistency, is non-stinging, and works wonders for my eyes.

So imagine my delight when I saw this value set that Elemis has released for its 20th Anniversary, the Elemis Pro-Collagen Anniversary Collection. This amazing kit is a $173 value but they are offering it for only $99. This kit includes Pro-Collagen Marine Cream (30 ml), Pro-Collagen Eye Renewal (full size), and Pro-Collagen Quartz Lift Serum (15 ml), plus a pretty shiny silver bag. If you order this kit before March 31 you can get an additional 20% off (on this item as well as all other Elemis products) with code ANNIVERSARY at checkout. The coupon brings the price of this kit down to $79.20, plus you can choose four samples at checkout. I’ve already placed my order!
