OK folks, today’s review is of a couple of skincare products from Emma Coleman Skincare. Emma Coleman is a dermatology and aesthetics nurse practicing in London. She has two product lines Emma Coleman Cosmeceuticals Skincare range and Emma Coleman Natural Skincare. I have a product from each range to go over with you today so let’s dive in!
Emma Coleman is a practising aesthetics nurse in London with services and products reviews in YOU Magazine, Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire, The Daily Mail to name a few. She has won the following awards: ‘Beauty shortlist award winner in 2018‘ and 2019, ‘Green Parent Natural Beauty Award 2017 winner’, ‘GHP Alternative Medicine & Holistic Health 2018’. So it’s fair to say that Emma knows her stuff and I was pretty chuffed when she reached out and asked if I’d like to try some of her products.
Emma Coleman Cosmeceuticals Skincare
Possibly, OK not possibly, the range that excites me the most out of the two is the cosmeceuticals one because let’s face it, you all know by now that I love me a well researched, science backed, active ingredient-led skincare range. So let’s dive in!
“The Emma Coleman Cosmeceutical Skincare range has been specifically developed to maintain good skin health on a daily basis. The range fights the first signs of ageing by targeting each layer of the skin to thoroughly hydrate and repair. The range introduces an affordable clinically proven integrated mix of products that work to achieve brighter and healthier skin.”
There are three products in the range: Luminosity Face & Body Wash, Daily Sunscreen SPF50, Retinol Overnight Serum.
Emma kindly sent me the Daily Sunscreen SPF50.

The Daily Sunscreen is a broad spectrum SPF50 skincare product. It contains lactic acid and citric acids to gently exfoliate and increase cell turnover. A boost of glycerin and aloe vera create a hydrating but non-greasy formula. It is water resistant.

Thoughts
I’m a fan of this sunscreen! I love that it contains lactic acid, a gentle, hydrating AHA to gently boost cell turnover at the same time as my skin is protected by broad spectrum UVA/UVB filters. The texture is cosmetically elegant and therefore a pleasure to apply, a necessity when it comes to SPF.
Who Will The Emma Coleman Cosmeceuticals Skincare Range Appeal To?
This range will appeal to anyone looking to introduce or include an active product into their routine. This may be through a face and body wash with AHA/BHA’s, the above SPF or to begin a journey into retinol’s with the ‘Retinol Overnight Serum’. With any skincare product containing ‘active’ ingredients it is important to always use SPF in your skincare routine. This range looks to protect your skin and prevent ageing with the Daily Sunscreen SPF50, to regenerate and brighten skin with the Daily Face & Body Wash (the added salicylic acid will benefit those with oily/combination skin as it helps unclog pores) and with the Retinol Overnight Serum to work at increasing cell turnover and targeting signs of ageing.
Emma Coleman Natural Skincare
The second range from Emma Coleman is the multi-award winning natural skincare line. There are five skincare items in this range from a cleansing balm to an eye and lip cream. I have the Healing Night Balm to try out!
“100% natural skincare enriched with antioxidants to protect skin from fine lines and wrinkles, inflammation and loss of elasticity.”
Emma Coleman Skincare Healing Night Balm
“Heaven in a jar, with antioxidant-rich mango butter, healing arnica and amaranth herb to boost skin’s natural resistance and aid cell rejuvenation, plus lavender and patchouli to calm a busy mind.”
The Healing Night Balm is enriched with mango butter, coconut butter and Squalane to create a luxurious rich and hydrating balm. It contains arnica to aid healing and lavender to soothe.

Thoughts
Healing Night Balm is a spa-like natural skincare product. It has a strong lavender scent to relax senses and busy minds and is soothing to the skin. I enjoyed the use of natural antioxidants to benefit and heal my skin. It is incredibly hydrating.
The balm is heavily scented so if you’re not a fan of scented skincare, this might not be the product for you.
Who Will The Emma Coleman Natural Skincare Range Appeal To?
The natural skincare range will appeal to anyone who wishes to use products sourced with ‘natural’ ingredients and enjoys essential oils. Those looking for an antioxidant rich moisturiser might love the Supreme Berry Day Cream, or a burst of hydration can be found in the Bareface Beauty Rose Drops.
Cruelty Free?
Emma Coleman Skincare Range is cruelty Free.

I feel that by offering both a cosmeceutical skincare and natural skincare range Emma offers something for all, which is impressive. I have enjoyed using both of these skincare items and look forward to trying more from her lineup in the future.
Emma also offers in house treatments (once we can safely do so again) and you can find all of the information on here website and her social media which I will post the details of below!
