How can I get clear, glowing skin?

Our skin is exposed to different stressors and variations throughout the year, as nature follows its cycles, the weather changes and the activities of our private lives vary.

The skin on the face, a particularly sensitive area, is exposed to these external stressors and variations in climate on a daily basis. It requires special attention at the start of the season to help it to adapt and feel its best all year round.

Support it through the changing of the seasons by adapting to its needs and learning how to keep it clear and fresh, maintaining a healthy glow whatever the weather! Read on to discover some skin care tips for glowing skin and more!

01 How do I cleanse my skin, and how does it help improve my skin’s radiance and complexion?

How to cleanse my skin

The first step to beautiful, glowing skin is to help it renew daily.

Here’s a tip: The best way to renew your skin for a fresh and radiant complexion is to cleanse it daily. This is why cleansing is always the first step in every skin care routine for glowing skin.

Whether you’re going out or staying at home, wearing make-up or not, your skin needs to be cleansed of traces of pollution and excess sebum every day. There's a cleanser for every skin type, whether combination, oily or dry.

Our skincare range includes instant make-up removers, cleansing milks, water-based cleansers, foaming or exfoliating gels to help you give your face the most suitable care.

Cleansing water, often called micellar water, is recommended for faces with imperfections, and is applied morning and night using cotton wool. There’s no need to rinse after applying, as the skin is purified and its natural hydration is preserved.

Water-based exfoliation solutions eliminate dead skin cells to give skin a new lease of life. With a refreshing and soothing effect, our make-up removers and cleansers take care of cleansing your skin and the area around the eyes, which are normally so sensitive to irritation.

A gentle facial skincare routine is the best way to start your day if you want to improve your skin’s radiance, complexion and achieve an even skin tone.

02 What are the benefits of gentle cleansing?

What are the benefits of gentle cleansing?

Cleansers eliminate the day’s make-up and impurities, providing comfort and softness for your skin.

They leave the skin soft and clean, with a pleasant feeling of suppleness and freshness. Clarins' botanical experts travelled to India to harvest the detoxifying power of the Moringa plant. Rich in vitamins and minerals, this powerful natural ingredient is present in our range of cleansers.

It helps oxygenate the skin and eliminate pollution particles, leaving skin free from impurities and able to breathe.

03 How to use face cleansers

How to use cleansers

Here’s a skin care tip. Apply cleansers to your skin using the Clarins recommended method:

1

Warm

the cleanser between the palms of your hands to bring it up to skin temperature.

2

Apply

the product by simple contact using the entire surface of the hands. Do not apply pressure.

3

Lay the hands

flat on the face and neck and remove hands as briskly as possible.

4

Repeat 7 times:

the cleansing milk will thicken and sponge away make-up and impurities without irritating or disturbing the tissue.

5

Rinse or wipe off

and apply toner to finish.

04 How can I wake my skin up after cleansing?

How can I wake my skin up after cleansing?

After removing your make-up and cleansing your skin, wake your complexion up with a Clarins toner.

There’s a wide range of products to choose from according to your skin type and its specific needs.

Applying a toner gives a real boost of freshness, which is why it is an essential part of all the best daily skin care routines for glowing skin! Whether you apply toner as a wake-up call in the morning or for some relaxation time in the evening, it restores the skin's velvety texture and vitality, leaving you feeling refreshed. Your skin will feel smooth, beautiful and will take on a gorgeous glow!

Soak two cotton pads and gently wipe them over your face and neck morning and night to hydrate, tone and prepare skin to fully reap the benefits of any product you apply afterwards. This prepping action makes your skincare as effective as possible.

05 How do I keep my skin hydrated throughout the day?
