This smart silver pump dispenser tube from Elemis is an at home facial, that offers the experience of an Elemis salon facial at a more affordable price. It is ideal when you don’t have the time to make it to a salon, but you are in need of a deeper treatment that your normal cleanse, tone, moisturise routine offers.

The Pro Quartz Lift Mask is based on a purifying white clay delivered in the form of a rich creamy mask. Like all the Elemis products, there is half a forest full of plant extracts. The Pro-Collagen Quartz Lift Mask contains a combination of Moroccan Argan Tree Oil, Quartz, Padina Pavonica, which boosts collagen production, adaptogenic Noni, and Moringa Oil which is a superb anti-oxidant to instantly uplift and hydrate the skin, minimising the signs of ageing for a more youthful, firmer appearance.

According to Elemis, Argan oil is derived from the fruit of the “Tree of Life”. The oil reduces to appearance of fine lines and wrinkles and gives the skin a more toned and lifted effect. They also claim that the quartz acts by stimulating collagen production through atomic vibrations, which is a bit too new-agey for me, but I’m willing to let it slide when the product does noticeably improve the firmness of your skin.

The pump means that you’re not wasting any of the contents and you only need two to three pushes to get an adequate amount each time you use it.

At £45 for 50ml, this isn’t a cheap product, but it does help tighten and firm the surface of the skin while providing useful levels of hydration.
This rich and soothing treatment should be left on for eight to ten minutes then removed. I found it worked especially well when applied in the bath. When you need a deep treatment, you can leave the mask on overnight and your skin will be smooth, firmed and moisturised in the morning.
