Day Creams — For Your Most Beautiful Skin

Putting Your Best Face Forward with Clarins Moisturizers

Eating well and exercising can help to promote glowing, youthful-looking skin – but Clarins understands that nothing can take the place of your day cream. When you moisturize, you're not just hydrating your skin; it’s also a great opportunity to address your specific skin care concerns and give your skin a fighting chance against the harmful effects of stress and pollution. All Clarins’ face moisturizers include an Anti-Pollution Complex that can help to reduce the effects of harsh environmental influences that can lead to premature signs of aging.

Whether you have specific skin concerns or you’re simply after a face cream that delivers the hydration your skin needs – Clarins products are designed to care for your skin gently – the natural way, using over 250 natural plant extracts in its formulas. All are carefully selected for their effectiveness and are delivered in optimal concentrations to reveal the beauty of every woman. Each ingredient is ethically sourced with the utmost care for the environment to protect our planet’s biodiversity.

At what age should I start to use a daily moisturizer?

The first signs of aging can start in our 20s. When and how we age is influenced by our genetics and lifestyle habits and this includes our skin care routine. Changing a few lifestyle choices doesn’t mean you can’t have fun and continue to love life in your 20s. Dealing with skin concerns as they come up – like sensitive skin, clogged pores, sun damage, or dry skin – will help to reduce the appearance of fine lines and crow’s feet, dark spots, and blotchy skin later on in life.

Clarins has taken all of this into account when creating a new generation of skin care products for 18 to 25 year olds. My Clarins is for optimistic, adventurous Gen Z’s who live life to the max – taking care of your skin with the best face creams infused with a healthy morning cocktail of fruit extracts to keep skin looking healthy, glowing and hydrated.

How do I know which moisturizer to use?

If you’re in your late 20s, Hydra-Essentiel Silky Cream - Normal to Dry Skin helps to visibly plump thirsty skin with precious moisture for all-day hydration. Organic Leaf of Life extract—a resilient succulent plant that enhances the skin’s ability to retain moisture—leaves skin feeling comfortable and radiant-looking.

For 30-something skin that never lets you down, include Multi-Active Day Cream - All Skin Types in your beauty routine. It’s packed with encapsulated Teasel extract to deliver targeted revitalizing action to where your skin needs it most – while line-fighting Myrothamnus extract helps to visibly smooth and tone your skin.

There’s no time like the present – so start to use formulas in your 40-something skin care routine that not only moisturize, but help to visibly firm, lift and fight wrinkles — for skin that appears smoother and more renewed day after day. Extra-Firming Day - All Skin Types is a silky anti-aging daytime moisturizer with the age-defying power of Kangaroo Flower extract — a plant discovery that promotes visible skin firmness.

Super Restorative Day - All Skin Types is a hardworking day cream that can be incorporated into your 50-something skin care regimen. Organic Harungana helps promote the appearance of density, elasticity and healthy-looking vitality for mature skin weakened by hormonal changes linked to the natural aging process. While antioxidant-rich Shea Butter nourishes, smoothes and soothes the appearance of the skin, the Harungana aids in minimizing the appearance of age spots and deep wrinkles.

How should I include Clarins best face moisturizers in my routine?

Clarins day cream formulas have been designed for every skin type – from oily to very dry – and you can choose gel, lotion or rich cream textures. A good rule of thumb is to match your moisturizer to your skin type while keeping the season in mind. In warmer months, a lightweight daily moisturizer will generally do the trick. The dry, blustery days of fall and winter can be more trying on the skin, so you may want to switch to a cream that's more hydrating – but always tune into your skin’s needs to avoid clogging your pores by over-moisturizing.

To apply your face cream:

1. Bring product to skin temperature by warming between palms, so that your skin accepts it instantly.
2. Use the natural weight of your hands to distribute the product evenly over your face and neck.
3. Clarins’ Pressure Draining Method enhances circulation, revives radiance and maximizes the efficiency of your face moisturizer. Using flats of hands, press 3 times on cheeks, 3 times on forehead, 5 times on neck and décolleté.

At Clarins, it’s not enough to formulate a product. We’ve created an application method adapted to make the most out of its effectiveness based on our knowledge of skin—easy expert techniques to repeat at home. You can master the application method for your specific day cream using Clarins Beauty School tutorials.
