#clarins
Hi guys

I’ve long been a fan of Clarins, although I did put them on the backburner for a while. They’ve never embraced AHAs, BHAs and Retinoids, so I started to see Clarins as a little fuddy duddy TBH. But… my thinking and perceptions have come full circle and I now see them as a brand who have stuck to their guns (so to speak), incorporating the best of plant based ingredients, sticking to their lane, sticking to their knitting (as it were) and never deviating from what has been the core success of their brand. And for that, I have come to appreciate them. They will be around long after their contemporaries have left the building!

Let me know what YOU love (or hate) about the brand. See you in the comments 🙂

Welcome to my channel! I’m Sue and my channel is dedicated to women in their forties and beyond who are as passionate about skin care and makeup as I am! My goal is to take the overwhelm out of makeup and skincare so that you can make better, more informed buying decisions! And hopefully learns some tips and tricks along the way 😉

The transformative power of makeup never ceases to amaze me. And it’s as much about a “feeling” as it is about the physical transformation. Even the tiniest amount of makeup can boost self esteem like nothing else can.

  1. This is a spotlight on the products I luuurve and the ones that don't make the cut! Let me know if you think the brand is still relevant or not so much ☺

  2. I think 25 -30 years ago Clarins were leaders in the industry but many products/ brands have surpassed them. The newer foundations are a huge disappointment. I don’t think their products actually have the botanical ingredients they once had. Sadly so many products don’t launch in SA. The lip oils are not coming in the shimmer finishes which are beautiful. Regarding the latest blushers I actually love them. I have the coral shade and it’s wonderful. All the nice lipsticks get discontinued 😡. The bath & shower gel I really enjoy.

  3. I love Clarins. I find that Clarins is underappreciated in the US. I had had very few misses. I love their moisturizers and their oils. I love their Ombre 4 colouer quads. They have a beaitiful formula. I love their lip products also. I think their lip tint is amazing. I would just want some different shades. Thank you so much. I have really enjoyed this video.

  4. I do agree about the foundations btw. I have not tried that mascara so I cannot say how I feel about it and now I will not get it lol, so I will not know

  5. Left side of the screen your neck is very swollen (lymph nodes) may want to get this checked out by your gp

  6. I don’t know where to start about Clarins. Some of their products really work and are my Holly Grail. A few are big waste of money!
    I’ll list them later!

  7. My Clarins holy grail product number is 6 is definitely Eau Dynamisante (ED). I find it calming, refreshing and inoffensive and it feels so good knowing that it's also a treatment! I've been using it since the Jurassic period, however have only just discovered this year that you're first supposed to rub a little bit of it into your hands and inhale it before applying it! It's part of my daily ritual and a bottle of it lasts me a good 8-9 months, so I buy a bottle of it every year.

    I'm sad to say my Clarins misses are the ED shower gel and body moisturizer. They are too much compared to the original body spray. Maybe I prefer something more aromatherapeutic like the Clarins Tonic line when it comes to shower gel and body moisturizer and perhaps I prefer something more simple and gentle like Avene… The red ED deodorant spray is lovely though. I would purchase that again!

  8. Agree! I have just started following you and have the same relationship with Clarions…loved the original Everlasting foundation and lip products. Skin care and Beauty Flash Balm always pleasing. AND… the foot beauty cream is something I buy twice a year for past ten years.
