Elemis anti-ageing cleansing balm loved by Molly-Mae drops to £14
Beauty fans can get one of Molly-Mae Hague’s favourite skincare products for less thanks to a new QVC deal. The Elemis Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Face & Body 5 Piece Collection is now up for grabs at £69.95 down from £150 from QVC – with Molly-Mae calling the original Pro-Collagen Cleansing balm a “really, really gorgeous product”.
In a 2024 YouTube video for LookFantastic, the former Love Island star went through her beauty must-haves in her, and included the Elemis Cleansing Balm in her picks. “This has got to be in my top three must-have beauty products, like I will never really leave home without this if I’m going to be taking off my makeup,” she said, adding: “Once you use this you will just never go back.”
QVC’s offer – which comes in both black cherry and original varieties, for the same discounted price – includes the Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, along with four other Elemis picks. The five products are worth over £200 individually, saving shoppers £130 on their purchase.
The Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm – in either black cherry or the original formula – is a rich product that melts into an oil, helping to dissolve makeup, daily impurities and excess oil. It then transforms into a hydrating milk when mixed with water, helping leave skin feeling cleansed, soft and radiant.
The set also includes Pro-Collagen Night Cream, formulated to intensely hydrate overnight while helping to minimise the visible signs of ageing, alongside the Papaya Enzyme Peel, a gentle exfoliator enriched with fruit enzymes, vitamin E and marine algae to smooth and brighten the complexion.
Completing the collection are two QVC-exclusive Black Cherry bodycare products: a creamy Bath & Shower Milk and a luxurious Velvet Body Butter, both infused with notes of juicy black cherry, creamy almond and warm vanilla to create a spa-inspired at-home pampering routine.
An alternative option to this is the Clinique Skincare Bestsellers Bundle priced at £111 on LookFantastic. This comes with three bestsellers: the Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm 125ml, the Moisture Surge 100 Hour Auto-Replenishing Hydrator 50ml and All About Eyes Eye Cream 15ml.
A more affordable option is the Body Collection Awaken Body Glow Gift Set for £18 on Argos. It includes a body wash, body mist, shea sugar scrub, exfoliating wash mitt, and a chic basket to hold everything.
Although there were no direct reviews on QVC for the Elemis Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Face & Body 5 Piece Collection, over on Elemis’ website, shoppers have rated the Cleansing Balm highly. One person said: “I love all the Elemis Cleansing Balms! The Black Cherry is amazing—it removes makeup easily, even waterproof mascara.
“I use it on dry skin, then add water and it turns into a milky texture. It smells like cherry bubblegum! The formula is the same across the range, just different scents. Rose and Fig are my favorites, but Black Cherry is a new favorite too.”
Another added: “I’ve been using the Elemis Pro-Collagen Black Cherry Cleansing Balm for like 3 weeks now and I actually really like it. I have dry skin and this stuff feels so nice when I put it on. It’s thick and buttery but once you rub it in, it melts into your skin and takes off all your makeup, even mascara and sunscreen.
“I don’t have to scrub or anything, it just melts everything off. The cherry scent is super soft and kinda sweet but not too strong. After I rinse it off, my skin feels clean but still soft and not tight or dry. It’s been working really well for me and I use it almost every night.”
A third person wrote: “The texture is buttery smooth and melts makeup effortlessly even waterproof mascara which I love the most. It leaves my skin feeling clean, nourished, and super soft.”
Some disagreed however, with one shopper writing as part of a longer review: “The balm is lovely. Removes makeup and SPF. However, I’ve purchased almost all the different scents and this is so different, in that it smells very synthetic.
“It’s not nice at all. Somewhere between fruity chewing gum and incense. I can not smell cherry at all.”
Another added: “Great cleansing balm, smells great and the scent lasts long on your face after being washed off. The only issue is that there is no cleansing cloth provided anymore!”
