My quest for younger-looking skin continues!
Ever since I started taking skincare seriously, I’ve made it my mission to work collagen into my daily routine. Collagen is what keeps skin looking plump, firm, and smooth, but our natural production slows down as we age. So now, I stir collagen peptides into my morning cup of tea and scan skincare labels for words like “collagen,” “polypeptide-1,” or “collagen amino acids.” (Yep, I’m obsessed.) But few names impress me as much as British luxury skincare brand ELEMIS and their Pro-Collagen Collection, designed to work around the clock to support youthful, healthy-looking skin.
My introduction to ELEMIS started with their Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30, but that’s only one third of the iconic collection. Alongside ELEMIS’ Pro-Collagen Marine Cream and Pro-Collagen Night Cream, the range harnesses the power of the sea to visibly improve signs of aging. Since you can’t simply apply collagen to the skin and expect it to rebuild, ELEMIS combines potent marine algae and plant actives with cutting-edge science to help smooth the look of fine lines, boost hydration, and improve elasticity.
Here’s how each formula works, and why they all deserve a spot in your routine.
Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30 ($145)
If you’re only going to start with one product from the collection, this is it. Known as “the cream that started it all”—now with the added benefit of SPF 30—this hero daytime moisturizer is proven to significantly reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles in just two weeks. It also pulls double (actually, triple) duty as your daily hydrator, firming treatment, and broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protector.
It’s formulated with moisture-boosting algae Padina Pavonica, antioxidant-rich Chlorella, and skin-conditioning Ginkgo Biloba to help improve firmness, deliver instant hydration, and defend against UV-induced premature aging. Think of it as your first line of defense against both dryness and the elements. All this, and it’s a luxuriously lightweight cream that you’ll actually look forward to applying every morning.
Pro-Collagen Marine Cream ($145)
Meet the award-winning original that made ELEMIS a household name. The Pro-Collagen Marine Cream delivers visible results, including fewer fine lines and a noticeable boost in hydration in just two weeks. Like its SPF sibling, it’s powered by Padina Pavonica, Chlorella, and Gingko Biloba to help firm, smooth, and drench skin in lasting moisture.
This version skips built-in sun protection, making it perfect for days spent mostly indoors, layering under makeup, or pairing with your favorite SPF. Plus, it’s infused with rose and mimosa for a subtle floral aroma that turns your morning routine into a mini spa moment. The silky gel-cream texture glides on effortlessly, leaving a smooth, satin finish that works great as a makeup base.
Pro-Collagen Night Cream ($175)
If the day is for defense, the night is for repair. Good thing this rich, nourishing cream makes every hour of beauty sleep count! The clinically proven Pro-Collagen Night Cream works while you rest, delivering instant and 24-hour hydration, as well as targeting visible signs of aging. After applying it in the evening, you’ll wake up to a firmer, smoother, more radiant complexion.
Formulated with Laminaria Digita and Red Algae to help maintain optimal skin condition, plus Padina Pavonica to improve suppleness and elasticity, it’s like a nightly reset for your skin. Antioxidant-rich Sesame and Avocado Oils replenish and condition while you sleep, so that your skin feels hydrated, toned, and refreshed by morning. This is the final, ultra-luxurious step that completes your around-the-clock Pro-Collagen routine.
If you’re serious about younger-looking skin, ELEMIS’ Pro-Collagen Collection has you covered (morning, night, and every hour in between). From the sun-shielding Pro-Collagen Marine Cream SPF 30, to the silky-smooth Pro-Collagen Marine Cream, to the overnight repair of the Pro-Collagen Night Cream, each formula works hard to hydrate, firm, and smooth for results you can see. My own collagen quest is far from over, but with this trio in my routine, I’m feeling pretty confident about the journey.
