Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm

Elemis has just launched the new Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm which is a „hybrid moisturizer“ that hydrates, primes and boosts radiance – all in one!

Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm is distinguished by its light texture that instantly absorbs and makes the perfect canvas for foundation. It won’t ball under your fingertips or sparkle under the light. The product promises instant brightening and tightening effect along with some anti-aging benefits. Elemis Flash Balm is formulated with nourishing vitamin complex, and a couple of naturally-derived ingredients such as the purple orchid, noni and acai.

The flash balm is applied to cleansed skin and it works for all skin types. It can be used as a light daily moisturizer, a radiance booster or makeup-primer, depending on whether you wear it on its own, nuder or on top of the makeup/moisturizer.

What may be a drawback for some customers is that Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm doesn’t even out the skin tone nor it conceals blemishes and the appearance of pores, like many other primers and beauty balms. It just coats the skin in a sheer glow of light and provides much needed moisture without any shimmer or glitter. Another obvious disadvantage of this product is that it doesn't contain SPF.

Elemis Pro-Radiance Illuminating Flash Balm is launching in May. It will be priced at £32.
