How to remove makeup without water

Smooth away impurities with a gentle cleansing milk.

44 sec.

Glowing skin begins with thorough makeup removal—but not all skin types take well to water. Cleansing Milks are refreshing alternatives to rinse-off formulas. Cleanse your face every morning, and right before bed to:

  • Free pores of trapped makeup, impurities, excess sebum, pollution and skin-dulling dead cells.
  • Reveal a soft, smooth, radiant complexion.
  • Prep skin to receive the full benefits of the treatments to follow.
  • Clarins +
  • Soak a soft cotton pad with Toning Lotion to remove every last trace of cleanser.
  • Makeup left on overnight can irritate the skin—resulting in dryness, redness, blemishes, loss of skin tone and premature signs of aging.
