Clarins Goodies



Hey everyone I'm back with a new post!

So a few weeks back now my mum decided to buy the Clarins super restorative total eye concentrate which is meant for people who are middle aged + and or have wrinkles, this product promises to give a mini eye "lift", It also claims to instantly firm and de-puff the entire eye area, also helping to minimise fine lines and eliminate dark under eye circles. I have tried this product out myself and although I am only 17 I do have the smallest amount of creasing under my eyes and I, like a lot of people I have quite dark under eye circles when I haven't slept much. When applying this product you are told to apply gently all over the eye area and up to the temples. When using this product I found that I did actually decrease my under eye circles very quickly and I was very impressed with this, It has not completely removed my creases under my eyes but I have found that since using this product that my makeup applies much easier in this area as it hydrates the skin a lot  

Since my mum bought this product for herself I thought I would also add her opinion, she is 47 and I would say only has a very small amount of lines under her eyes and her dark circles aren't too visible either; when trying this product she also found that the dark circles under her eyes improved a lot and become virtually none existent, she also found that the fine lines around her eyes decreased too and yet again she found that when applying her makeup it was much easier and the makeup did not just sit in the creases of her eyes. Over all I would say that this product does do what it claims to and I would say it is worth the money. Available at any Clarins Counters or online and retails at £49.50/15ml 

When buying this product we also got 2 Clarins testers, the Extra Firming Day cream and the Vital Night Light cream which are both great moisturisers and great textures when applying they also don't leave your face greasy which for a lot of people can be a problem if you already have oily skin. I really do like the night cream as it is quite thick and feels almost like a moisture mask which I love and also when applying instantly makes your skin feel incredibly soft; as for the day cream it is a lovely cream but I don't think I would personally repurchase it due to the price as I don't find it to be really impressive like I do the night cream, which I think is very much the price. Day Cream - £38.40/ 50ml Night cream - £63.00/50ml Available from all Clarins counters and online.
