Radiance & Energy Makeup

Achieving a perfect-looking complexion isn’t nearly as complicated as it sounds. Clarins demystifies the art of flawlessly smooth skin with makeup products that use pioneering plant-based science in their formulas. All that’s left for you to do is show off your gorgeous skin—as simple as 1, 2, 3!

Our long-wearing, hydrating concealer formulas blend easily to disguise imperfections and even out skin tones with flawless results — all in stay-true, made-for-you textures and finishes to showcase your skin’s natural radiance.

Clarins’ plant-packed foundations are natural extensions of your existing skincare routine. Everlasting Foundation contains Organic Quinoa extract, which boosts your skin’s hydration. Skin Illusion Foundation features Red Jania extract, which smooths and renews the skin’s radiance.

Clarins makeup products are perfect for daily wear or a night out. In addition, foundation, powder, and blending brushes offer smooth, even applications to take your fabulous look to the next level.

A makeup face primer prepares your skin for foundation by helping to smooth away the appearance of fine lines, spots, and pores.

Clarins recommends Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch—our best primer for dry skin. Ultra-light in texture to glide on the skin, our award-winning product leaves the skin’s surface looking flawless. Acacia micro-pearls visibly smooth, while Vitamin E hydrates and nourishes to leave your skin feeling comfortable and foundation-ready in seconds!

Another great option is the SOS Color Correcting + Hydrating Face Primer. This sensorial formula includes Seawater, Chlorella, and Laminar extracts that can prep practically any skin type for long-lasting foundations and concealers. Available in five colors, this 24-hour hydration option is a great first step toward looking your best!

Clarins’ best foundations and concealers include plant-science skincare in each product, giving you a flawless complexion that feels comfortable all day.

Clarins’ plant-packed foundations are natural extensions of your existing skincare routine. Everlasting Foundation contains Organic Quinoa extract, which boosts your skin’s hydration. Skin Illusion Foundation contains Red Jania extract, which smooths and renews the skin’s radiance.

The Skin Illusion Foundation combines the fluidity of pure plant oils with the perfect amount of pigments for breathable, luminous wear. One of our best foundation innovations to date, this product lets you choose the ideal level of coverage that conceals imperfections and visibly evens your complexion for that smooth, “bare skin” feeling.

Looking for the best under-eye concealers? Look no further than Instant Concealer. It brightens shadowy areas, reduces signs of fatigue, and conceals imperfections while visibly plumping and smoothing your skin’s appearance in the area! In addition, hydrating Aloe Vera promotes crease-free coverage for maximum comfort.

Need to tone down shine and even your complexion? Whether it’s powder, cream, or liquid foundations, Clarins recommends using the best foundation brush for the job. For full coverage, the Flat Foundation Brush’s super-soft bristles and rounded tip help you achieve a smooth, even base. Prefer a subtle, nude look that won’t cake? Reach for the Multi-use Foundation Brush’s fanned bristles.

With complexion perfection achieved, it’s time to get every second possible out of your makeup. Fix’ Make-Up Hydrating Setting Spray is a light, refreshing option enriched with Aloe Vera and Allantoin to visibly moisturize and soothe your skin while keeping your makeup in place.

How do I choose the right foundation shade that matches my skin tone?

Identify your undertone (cool, warm, or neutral) and swatch a few shades along your jawline in the natural light. The best match disappears into your skin. Clarins foundations like Skin Illusion offer a wide range of shades with buildable coverage and a radiant, second-skin finish.

What are the differences between liquid, powder, and cream foundations?

Liquid foundations offer coverage with a natural glow ideal for most skin types. Powder formulas, meanwhile, provide a matte finish and work well for touch-ups or oily skin. Cream foundations deliver rich coverage and a dewy look ideal for dry complexions. Clarins liquid foundations strike a great balance between coverage, comfort, and skin-enhancing radiance.

How can I achieve a subtle makeup finish?

Always begin with a smoothing primer to even out the texture. Apply a lightweight, luminous foundation like Skin Illusion. Use concealer only where necessary and blend it well. A light dusting of powder or setting spray locks everything without dulling the glow. Think skin first, makeup second.

What steps should I follow to ensure my makeup lasts all day?

Prepping with a primer smooths and grips makeup. With a long-wearing foundation and concealer, you’ll be ready to add the final touch with a hydrating setting spray or powder. Remember: lightweight products and avoiding heavy textures help maintain a fresh, breathable finish. A mid-day touchup with a setting spray can even refresh your glow for the back half of the afternoon.

Are there face makeup products suitable for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Clarins foundations are developed with skin-friendly botanicals and are non-comedogenic (non-pore-clogging). Skin Illusion provides breathable coverage with plant extracts to help maintain hydration and comfort, making it a gentle, effective option for skin that prefers a little TLC.
