Favourite Clarins products

[nuttyslackster]

I have a £65 voucher to spend in Clarins, but it's not a brand I know much about. Thinking maybe an item of make up and maybe something for face or body. Which are the holy grail products that I should try?! Or anything that doesn't live up to the hype/price tag? Thank you

I think boots have a good gift with purchase at the moment!

If I had to pick one product it would be clarins gentle peeling, it's exfoliating without the beads

I just bought some of their new lip oil. It's lovely. Really thick but not at all sticky.

This thread is actually making me want to return to clarins. I had forgotten how much I love some of their products. Make friends with your local clarins rep and you will be inundated with samples. They really are the most generous company when it comes to that. I think possibly this was why I stopped using them as I just couldn't use all of them. But I miss you clarins I am coming home.

Blue Orchid facial oil and the Hand & Nail Treatment cream. Both superb!

Are the body tanning drops and the face tanning drops the same product? Cos if so, it seems like you'd get better value for money by buying the body one but using it on your face?

I am probably the only one, but I hate the hand cream - don't think it does much and the likes of the Body Shop hemp is far better and much cheaper - but love the melt cleanser, the tragically discontinued Hydraquench, and the tanning drops. I also really like the little booster oils that you add to skincare. BFB doesn't work on me under makeup, but it is fab as a mask (then washed off), particularly if you're knackered/hungover.

i used to love Clarins but not so much now. However I do rate the hand cream (body shop hemp great too). If I had the voucher I would stock up on the fragrances eau dynamisante or eau jardin or the blue bottle one I cannot remember its name. The body lotions in same fragrance are great and last long. I've never liked Clarins cosmetic range.

I don't mind Beauty flash balm though you do have to apply your foundation quickly afterwards as it peels off if you don't...

Just my thread...

I am a Clarins tart... used for years..

My favourite items are the extra firming moisturizer range.. but then that depends on your age to which you would use.
I prefer the lotus oil to the blue orchid oil, as it isn't as heavy for me.
I use both Eau de Dynamisante and Eau de Jardins ... one for winter, one for summer.
Body exfoliater and body oil is so lovely.
Hand and nail cream, although it does smell a bit odd.
Foot scrub.
True Radiance foundation
Cottonseed face wash and comfort toner

I have the beauty flash balm but it doesn't really do much for me for some reason. Double serum I also have, but think I prefer EL night repair over this one.

Good luck OP, there is a lot to choose from....
