    Is this any good i use liz earle love it

    My Mum uses it and loves the pro-collagen cream, she uses Liz Earle as well. She has delicate skin which is prone to eczema so she will only use certain products.

    Haha! Thanks both.:)
    But being the Scrooge that I am, that's all hogwash to me, a bit like that strange word 'worth'. Over inflated prices to try to make you think you're getting a bargain. If QVC normally sell it for £47.75, then I'm looking for a half price offer on that.:rotfl:

    That would be nice! :rotfl:

    Well I'm 20 and love Elemis, in particular the pro-collagen cream and their cleansers/toners. That cream, along with a Decleor one, are the only creams I've found that don't make me break out. My mum is... well, older!... and she loves it too. I'd say it's suitable for all ages :)

    I'm buying two of these, one is a gift for her (hope she doesn't read this! :o)

    Thanks :) thats really helpful im 23 and was also thinking of buying another for my mom :) i like Liz Earle cause its also paraben free. Read some shocking things about what goes into some creams. I wonder if they have the ingredients on their site?

    can get 5.05% via topcashback.

    Just hope there's enough stock to last long enough for me to call mum tomorrow and check she wants this set! I had set a reminder for it earlier but didn't hear it go off and it's a bit late to call her now!

    Thanks for the reminder, too late for me, I only ever remember cashback after I've placed an order!:( every single time!

    I have used the Elemis Marine cream when I was given a pot by my sister and it was absolutely amazing, the nicest moisturiser I have ever used, and I've used lots from great brands - Lancome, Dior, Clarins, YSL etc. My second favourite moisturiser is actually a relatively cheap (£10, but every once in a while on offer £5 - £7 ish) Body Shop Vitamin E moisturiser.
    This is a great price if you need and want the items, but I just can't justify it right now. No doubt when my current pot of moisturiser runs out I will kick myself!
    I'm 24 and have normal skin which can go a little dry in winter with monthly hormonal spots on my face :(
    The marine cream has a lovely texture, a little goes a long way, leaves a fabulous finish/feel on the skin, perfect for putting foundation onto or not if you can't be bothered (or lucky enough not to need it), smells fabulous and gives the perfect level of moisturisation (apparently not a word but I want it to be so I'm not going to change it).

    The other items? No idea.
