My Clarins Home Spa

Hi my loves,

we all know that this year has not been normal. Quite the opposite: the pandemic has a firm grip on the world and it literally changed everything. Unprecedented challenges have to be faced and our daily life which was very struggling before has now become a whole new challenge. That this is something really stressful should not be mentioned at all.

For this reason it is so important to plan some time for ourselves. These much needed “me-times”. I personally love to take a relaxing bath after a long day of work or I love to drink a delicious tea or read a good book. Everything which is good for the body and mind. Balm for the soul! But also my skin needs some extra attention during these stressful times.

Clarins is one of my favorite skin care brands since many many years now. I also love the decorative cosmetics of the traditional French house. But today it is all about my current three favorite skin care products:

1. Huile Lotus

Especially in winter I am a huge fan of face oils.

The icy temperatures outside and the warm heating air inside are not skin’s best friends. This is the reason why the skin gets out of balance in winter. Now it’s the perfect time for some extra care. I love to add an extra moisturize boost with the face nourishing oil lotus. The oil consists of 100 % plant extracts, the connection of essential oils like rosemary and geranium is responsible for a clear and refined skin and pores. Nourishing hazelnut oil protects my skin from drying out. And even if there is still this very persistent rumor: you do not need to be afraid of pampering your face with oil if you tend to have a combination or oily skin. This oil is specially made for those needs.

2. and 3. SOS Pure + Pure Scrub  

Unfortunately I also tend to have some impurities in winter so I regularly use a scrub or a clarifying mask. At least once a week I love to pamper my skin with the “SOS Pure” mask from Clarins. The integrated balancing alumina leaves my skin clarified and with a super fresh feeling. Additonally I love to use the “Pure Scrub” with lava pearls. If I have a lot of impurities I also use it twice a week. With this my skin feels so refreshed and comfortable and I think the “extra work” really pays off in the end.

How does your current skin care routine look like? Did you already tried the products from Clarins?

I am looking forward to your opinions. Have a great rest of the week.
