01 What effect does time have on the skin? Within the extracellular matrix of the skin, fibroblasts produce collagen and elastin fibers, which guarantee skin firmness and elasticity. Over the years, due to the slowing down of fibroblast activity, the matrix “ages”: the skin becomes dehydrated and loses energy. It is less dense and plump. Wrinkles begin to appear. Formulated for women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and 60s, Clarins’ four Treatment Essences offer a complete beauty treatment thanks to the revitalizing, firming and smoothing power of plant extracts. Regain your radiance today!
02 Why are the Treatment Essences innovative? A new step for all women in search of hydration and radiance, the Multi-Active, Extra-Firming and Super-Restorative Treatment Essences are the fruits of Clarins Laboratories’ latest discoveries. Their innovative formulas deeply hydrate all skin types by infusing them with powerful anti-ageing active ingredients. The secret of this dual action? The new [ RED² + H.A² ] Complex, a unique combination of active ingredients that brings together: organic Red Ginseng extract, which helps to restore the skin’s energy Jania extract, which promotes cell renewal and revives radiance double molecular weight hyaluronic acid, which helps retain water Hydration and cell renewal are the first anti-ageing measures to limit skin ageing and to achieve beautiful skin at any age.
03 How do the Treatment Essences prepare the skin for skincare treatments? Tired skin loses its ability to absorb ingredients Your skin benefits more from the active ingredients in your face creams if it is properly hydrated and in good condition. Thanks to their powerful natural active ingredients, Clarins’ Essences deeply hydrate different skin types over time and prepare them to better absorb any products applied afterwards. With its balance restored, your skin is ready to reap all the benefits of your skin care products!
04 What is the difference between a Treatment Essence, Lotion or Serum? A product adapted to every beauty goal Neither a serum nor a lotion, a treatment essence is a beauty innovation that has come to us from Asia. Women swear by this new must-have to achieve healthy, glowing skin. But what exactly is the difference? A toning lotion completes the make-up removal process, a serum boosts the action of a cream, while an essence moisturises the face, restores its youthfulness and prepares it to absorb any products applied after. Thicker than a lotion, more fluid than a serum, this should be applied to cleansed skin, before your serum and cream. The result is hydrated, plumped and rebalanced skin!
