Advantages: Smells gorgeous
Disadvantages: Too expensive

...a little a joke but Clarins is a brand which has been on the marked for a very long time: Jacques Courtin-Clarins opened the first Clarins Institute de Beaute in Paris in 1954. He developed treatments and products using natural botanical ingredients first for the body and then for the face and was the first to use 100% pure plant extracts so their reputation has grown strong through the years everywhere in the world. This product is my favourite ...
...languages and has details of Clarins contacts around the world in case something goes wrong of if you have any feedback. The tub itself is nothing special, the soft plastic it is made of allows an easy squeeze which means you don't have to struggle with it, on it you will find red writing and just a bit of gold, nothing fancy: I suppose it is rather simple but classy. At the end of the day yes, I understand, we do like a bit of bling when we take ... Read review

Advantages: no greasy residue, smells amazing, feels luxurious
Disadvantages: dispensing is messy

I was given a bottle of this oil for my 40th birthday. Given the price it will have to remain a special birthday treat and I don't think I will be buying a replacement when it is finished. It is great on your skin after the bath, really rubs in well with no greasy residue. I particularly like putting it on the my legs after shaving if they feel itchy as it is very sooting. My sister got into when she was pregnant to help prevent strech marks. She ...
...genetic I don't know. It smells absolutely gorgeous, a sort of minty, lemony, herby (no not like a roast chicken) rather than the usual cosmetic floral scent. I don't like to way it dispenses, though. The opening is about 4mm across and you simply pour the oil into your hands. I set a towel on the bed and nestle the open bottle in the folds to prevent is falling over while I quickly apply the oil before it all runs through my fingers. It's a bit ... Read review

...rich and great absorbancy. Clarins have chosen to discontinue this cream and I can only find Super Restorative Cream in stores now which I don't find as good. You can still buy it online or from Sainsburys but beware that you are not buying out of date products. It used to sell for over £45 ... Read review

Advantages: You can feel it working, firms, moisturises
Disadvantages: The smell, the price

...bedroom. According to Clarins after 4 weeks of daily use thighs can be up to 3cm thinner and the visible appearance of cellulite can be reduced by up to 38%. These are bold claims, and claims that I am skeptical of. As I do not use it on a daily basis I can neither confirm or deny them, but I can say that my cellulite has not worsened since buying the product. This was my main reason for purchasing it - to avoid it developing and try to stop it from ...
...early stages of cellulite as well as the later stages. This has worked, but whether it would have worsened without the use of the product remains a mystery. Furthermore, I don't think this product should be brought with the word 'cure' in mind, I believe it will help to reduce the appearance (and possibly some causes) of cellulite, but dont expect to be left with no signs at all! However, now that I have used the product I cant see myself going ... Read review

...sunscreen in it. i love clarins moisturisers so when i discovered they have a hand lotion with an spf 15 i bought it straight away. it comes in a 75ml white tube with the classic clarins red writing on it. the products claims to prevent age spots,evens skin tone and soften hands. perfect. the tube cost me £14.99 but ive seen it since on the internet for as little as £10.50 delivered so definatly shop around. the lotion itself is a very bright white ...
...lasted me about 2 months so its relativly good value for money. as with all clarins products you feel geniunly pampered after using the lotion and i just dont think you get that from cheaper brands. try www.islandcosmetics.com its cheap here at the moment great for the summer months ...
