Facial Moisturizers and Creams
(27)Facial moisturizers are the backbone of every skincare routine—no matter your skin type, age, or lifestyle. They help lock in hydration, support the skin’s natural barrier, and create a smooth, supple canvas for everything that follows. At Clarins, our moisturizers go a step further by blending high-performance plant ingredients with luxurious textures that feel as good as they look.
From lightweight gels to rich creams, each formula is designed to meet specific skin needs—whether you’re looking to hydrate, visibly smooth, or restore radiance. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid, organic leaf of life, and alpine rose extract are all ingredients that can visibly boost moisture and comfort throughout the day. The result is skin that looks plump, fresh, and beautifully cared for, without ever feeling greasy or weighed down.

Applying Facial Moisturizers, Creams and Lotions
What sets Clarins moisturizers apart is their sensorial feel and spa-inspired application. Massaging the product into the skin using gentle pressing motions not only enhances absorption but also turns a daily task into a moment of self-care. These textures are carefully crafted to melt into the skin, delivering hydration exactly where it’s needed while offering a moment of calm in your busy day.
Consistency is key with moisturizers. Applying your cream morning and evening—after cleansing, toning, eye creams, and any face serums—helps maintain hydration levels and keeps your skin looking its best. Many Clarins formulas are also designed to work seamlessly under makeup, so your skin stays smooth and glowing from the first step of your day to the last.
No matter your age or concern, there’s a Clarins moisturizer ready to support your skin. Each one is created in our French laboratories with a focus on plant science, sustainability, and visible results. It’s not just about hydration—it’s about creating a skincare moment that brings comfort, balance, and confidence every single day. Because when your skin feels good, you do too.
Common Questions About Face Moisturizers
Our experts have the answers.
What’s the difference between day and night moisturizers?
Day creams are designed to hydrate and protect the skin throughout the day, often with lighter textures and ingredients that support skin exposed to stressors like pollution and climate. Night creams tend to be richer, helping to visibly replenish and comfort the skin while you sleep. Both play a key role in keeping your skin balanced and radiant, 24/7.
How do moisturizers help aging skin?
Moisturizers help visibly smooth fine lines, improve skin’s suppleness, and boost radiance by maintaining hydration and supporting the skin’s barrier. Clarins uses targeted plant extracts to help skin look visibly firmer, more even-toned, and nourished. With consistent use, skin feels more comfortable and looks beautifully refreshed.
Which moisturizer is best for dry skin?
Look for rich creams that contain ingredients like shea butter, squalane, or hyaluronic acid to deeply hydrate and soothe. Clarins offers ultra-nourishing options like Hydra-Essentiel [HA²] Rich Cream, made for skin that needs serious comfort without a heavy feel.
Should I layer moisturizer under SPF?
Yes—moisturizer goes on first to hydrate and prep the skin, followed by SPF for daily protection. Let your moisturizer absorb fully before applying sunscreen. This layering helps your skin stay protected without compromising either step.
How much moisturizer should I use?
A nickel-sized amount is usually just right for the face and neck. Warm it between your hands, then gently press and smooth it into the skin for even distribution. A little goes a long way thanks to our silky, concentrated textures.
