Bloody Clarins 😭

As my skin has helpfully decided to turn to crepe paper overnight upon reaching perimenopause, I stocked up on a few nice bits from Clarins, including the foaming face wash, which was always beautiful smelling and made my face so happy.
Well, it's bloody awful! Consistency of face cream so it feals like you're washing with cream, and it doesn't foam at all. Smell is cheap and nasty, and it leaves my face tight and dry. Very disappointed.
The foundation remains lovely, but this was disappointing. Has anyone else noticed a decline?

I don't have the foaming face wash so can't comment on that but I've recently returned to Clarins and everything is as lovely as I remember.

Clinique have changed their facial wash too. It sounds exactly as you’re describing. 🙁

I don’t use Clarins since they became un-cruelty free after selling in China. Same same re peri skin tho, mine went absolutely insane. I’ve stopped using actives and now use The Inkey List which is really lovely and v reasonably priced.
