Somebody on Facebook has asked a question about PCMC.
"Just finished a pot of Elemis PCMC, turned the pot over and spotted the ingredients list label underneath. I am completely surprised, and disappointed to see Dimethicone (silicone) as the 5th ingredient as well as 5 different parabens further down the list. For such an expensive moisturiser, I wouldn't expect to see either ingredients. And it's certainly not as natural as Elemis would like us to believe!"
Here's the answer that Keeley has given.
Hello , this is always a subject that causes many debates, as a company we always use the highest quality ingredients that work in ifinity with the skin and that cause the least amount of problems, sometimes you have to use certain ingredie...nts until another ingredient has been sourced as an alternative as we have done with some of our body products, it's all about the recent age used of that ingredient that also matters when it's combined with the other ingredients then you get the other ingredients benefits also. Pro Collagen marine cream contains some amazing actives that work with the cellular structure of the skin and it's these benefits that are treating the aging results and this is how we achieve the great clinical test results that makes pro collagen work on the skin. That particular ingredient may have a filling effect but that's only that particular ingredient that is used purely for the finishing texture we do not use it for anything other than that , the other actives are the real result drivers, hope this helps x
