How to Use the Elemis Cleansing Balm in 9 Steps

Why the Elemis Cleansing Balm is a Must-Have in Your Skincare Routine

The Elemis Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm offers a luxurious deep-cleaning experience that elevates any skincare routine. Its unique formula, packed with nourishing ingredients like elderberry oil and starflower oil, ensures your skin is hydrated while being cleansed. Suitable for all skin types, this balm effectively removes makeup and impurities without stripping your skin of essential moisture. Its anti-aging benefits further make it an essential product, supporting a youthful, glowing complexion.

Elemis offers various balms, but no matter which one you choose—Pro-Collagen, Superfood, or Peptide collections—this routine remains universal.

Step 1: Get Acquainted with the Product

The Elemis Cleansing Balm has a rich, luxurious texture that transforms from balm to oil, making it an ideal choice for both makeup removal and deep cleansing. Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin, it works to melt away makeup while leaving your face hydrated. The balm's versatility and sensory experience make it a true skincare staple.

Step 2: Prepare Your Skin for Cleansing

Begin with a dry face for optimal effectiveness. Take a small amount of the balm, warming it between your fingers. A little goes a long way, and you’ll feel the rich texture envelop your skin as it prepares to dissolve impurities and makeup.

Step 3: Indulge in the Massage Ritual

Gently massage the balm into your skin, allowing it to break down dirt, oils, and makeup. This step is a spa-like experience at home. Warming the balm in your hands before applying helps it glide across your skin smoothly, turning this into a relaxing ritual.

Step 4: Transform the Balm with Water

Wet your fingertips and continue massaging. As the balm comes into contact with water, it transforms into a milky texture, which works to lift away impurities without drying out your skin. This stage leaves your skin feeling soft and clean, without residue.

Step 5: Rinse and Reveal Your Glow

Rinse your face with lukewarm water, gently removing the balm. Post-rinse, your skin will feel refreshed and glowing. You’ll notice a smoother, radiant texture that doesn’t feel tight or dry.

Step 6: Double Cleanse (Optional)

For those looking for an extra-deep clean, follow up with a second cleanse. The double cleansing method ensures that any leftover residue or impurities are completely washed away, leaving your skin balanced and ready for the next step.

Step 7: Tone and Neutralise Your Skin

After cleansing, use a toner to restore your skin’s pH balance. This helps prepare your skin for moisturizing and enhances the balm's nourishing benefits. Opt for toners with hydrating properties to complement the balm’s effects.

Step 8: Finish with Moisturising

Lock in hydration by applying your favourite moisturiser. This final step will keep your skin nourished and glowing throughout the day or night.

More on the Elemis Cleansing Balm

Which is the Best Elemis Cleansing Balm?

The Elemis range offers several versions of their cleansing balm, each suited to different skin types. The Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm is ideal for most skin types due to its hydrating and anti-aging properties. The Superfood Cleansing Balm is great for those with dry or sensitive skin, thanks to its nourishing ingredients. For those seeking anti-aging benefits, the Peptide Cleansing Balm is a perfect choice.

What to Use After Elemis Cleansing Balm?

After using the cleansing balm, consider applying a hydrating toner followed by a serum for added benefits. Finish with a moisturiser to lock in hydration, leaving your skin feeling supple and fresh.

How Often Should You Use Elemis Cleansing Balm?

For best results, the Elemis Cleansing Balm can be used daily as part of your nightly skincare routine. It’s gentle enough for regular use, even on sensitive skin.

How Long Does Elemis Cleansing Balm Last?

A typical tub of Elemis Cleansing Balm lasts around 3 to 4 months, depending on how often and how much you use per cleanse. Since a small amount is sufficient for each application, it is a long-lasting investment in your skincare.

How to Use Elemis Cleansing Balm as a Mask?

The cleansing balm can also be used as a hydrating face mask. Apply a generous amount to dry skin and leave it on for about 10 minutes. This allows the balm to deeply nourish your skin before rinsing off for a soft, glowing complexion.

How to Use Elemis Cleansing Balm to Remove Makeup?

To remove makeup, apply the balm to a dry face and massage it into the skin, focusing on areas with heavy makeup, such as the eyes and lips. Wet your fingertips, and the balm will transform into a milk-like consistency that effortlessly removes even waterproof makeup.

How Long Do You Leave Elemis Cleansing Balm On For?

When using the balm for a regular cleanse, you only need to leave it on your skin for 1-2 minutes before rinsing. For a mask treatment, leave it on for about 10 minutes to allow the ingredients to fully penetrate and hydrate your skin.
