Clarins: All the best
I will suggest you a couple of products for dry skin, all from Clarins. It is one of these brands that I like the most. I also have to admit that some of the products were disappointing, mostly because of the smell, the heaviness of the perfumes in them, mostly. I get irritated when a smell is too strong and I cannot resist but see the bad sides of the product afterwards. Here, I will talk to you about:
1) Clarins Shea butter cleanser for dry and sensitive skin
2) Clarins Roll-on of Clarins for women (it can also be unisex)
3) Clarins Joli rouge
4) Clarins Intense lip oil (a new product)
5) Clarins beauty flash balm
6) Clarins foot cream
7) Clarins facial mist
8) Clarins satin eye shadow
Let's get started...
First of all, the most used and loved product for me has been Shea Butter Cleanser of Clarins for sensitive and dry skin. It is a great product. I have used it for many many years. Now even my husband uses it to cleanse his skin. It never harms the skin and it soothes it... never causes redness or irritation. A great product, cleanses and refreshens the skin, does not leave any residue of makeup, and I am one hundred percent sure that I will continue to buy it forever.
The second product I liked so much from Clarins was not one of the hydrators, although I tried one, now i cannot remember which one it was. Because with the hydrators I felt that I was not super happy, the smell they have is too cosmetic and too perfumy for me. Therefore, I decided not to buy moisturisers from Clarins. So my second favourite product is The roll-on of Clarins which is a wonder. I know that it is not the most natural one, it might have some ingredients that the naturalists might not like, but still it has this perfect smell and it really prevents you from "stinking" without closing your pores, so I really liked it and bought it also for my family and myself. I have been using this one, too, for maybe more than six years, as well as the first one, well, to be more accurate, maybe have been using Shea butter cleansing balm for eight years now.
The third wonderful product from Clarins is the lipstick Joli Rouge! Here I will suggest two lipsticks. The first one that I used almost everyday was Rosewood I think which is in the category of joli rouge. Yet I also used a similar colour in Joli Rouge velvet, and loved it so much, as well! The velvet one, as far as I remember was not drying the lips. Yet I want to try it again to be sure if it is so.
Now I bought lipcomfort oil intense number 04 intense rosewood. I like this one but not as much as joli rouge woodrose or joli rouge nude brick 757. The nudebrick is a wonderful tone of brown if you want to use it daily for work but still want to shine and so on, the nudes are wonderful in Clarins.
I like the joli rouge (which is more classical) than the other oily and caring lip products. I still admit that the intense rosewood-oil is also quite a good one. It is definitely light on the lips, it is not sticky, it kind of helps your lips get hydrated... Cannot complain about that at all! It just has this perfume inside that makes me think twice. Joli rouge has a very light perfume, on the other hand.
The fourth product I used and I still use as a basis before I put on my bb cream or suncream or the fondo tinta is Beauty Flash Balm (it says, brightens and tigthens). This is also a valid product, it has some kind of perfume inside which is not super necessary I believe, and I do not like to use it by itself (not like a basis for makeup but for hydrating purposes). However, as a basis for makeup I think it is doing a good job in protecting the skin... It says it brightens and tightens and yet that may be for younger people, it might have a better effect in doing that. Unfortunately, I am sorry to say this Clarins, but I do not see it for me since I was 33, whenever I used it, still believe that it is a good base for the bb cream, fondo tinta, or any other coloured makeup product that you will use afterwards.
The seventh product is the creamy eyeshadow. I have bought recently the brownish one (somehow I thought that it was more brown) and in fact it is called "purple rain". It is a wonderful colour. I tell you the number here: 03. It is very easy to apply and it is such a nice colour between brown and purple... I apply it with my clean fingers and it is distributed easily that way. I find it easy to manipulate the cream when I use my fingers, especially the creamy ones. I am 100 percent sure that you will enjoy this one.
I am using another cream and serum infused together, from Clarins, which is plant-based but I wish to write my comments on this product later on. Currently I am using the mascara of Clarins, too, it is okay but nothing spectacular. Moreover, I bought their bronzer, again the smell is too heavy! Why Clarins why???? Can not you make the products smell less stronger than they are? I did not put it in my favourites yet cause I need to see it on my face more than a couple of times.
I think that my expectations were really high with the shea butter cleansing cream, the roll-on and the rouge... The footcream, the mist and the eyeshadow met these expectations with their smell, their texture, their colour and how sensitive they are on the skin. The beauty balm is also a nice one, not as good as the others, but still fine.
I will make a couple of comments on the bronzer, the mascara and the plant-based cream, need to try them a bit more...
Clarins is a brand that I LOVE in general. So I hope you like these comments... Which one is your favourite Clarins product? Write in the comments below...
I hope you have a wonderful week!
Be safe, be healthy, be happy and optimistic!
