I admit, I was skeptical to try this product, which was described to me as “Botox in a Jar.”

However, I quickly realized what makes this cream such a favorite!

It absorbed quickly and cleanly, and make my skin fresher and brighter with the very first application.
But does it do what it says?

HYDRATION: Yes! My skin felt smoother right away, and exuded a certain radiance despite the drying chill of winter.

WRINKLES: Hard to say. The fine lines around my eyes seem to have filled out a bit, but I haven’t noticed any effects on the frown lines in my forehead. Yet.

Does the Glare recommend this product? Hmm. I like it, but I would be curious to hear what our readers think of it. So I do recommend our readers give this a try, and report back to us what you think!

The first thing I noticed when I opened the package was that it included its own face cloth. I thought this was a nice touch!

The second thing I noticed, when I opened the jar, was the power of the aromatherapy. I felt more relaxed and refreshed right away, even before applying the balm.

The balm itself is remarkable. It melts instantly on the face to the consistency of honey, and suds lightly when massaged with moisturized fingertips. But does it do what it says?

SOFTEN & SOOTHE: Absolutely! My skin felt fresh and smooth right away and remained so all day long.

NOURISH: Yes. The treatment left my face healthy and glowing.

MAKE-UP REMOVER: Yes, but I wouldn’t recommend this product to remove make-up around the eyes.

More than just cleansing, this balm is also refreshing and calming. The Glare recommends ELEMIS PRO-COLLAGEN CLEANSING BALM as a treat for both the skin and the soul.
