Fallin in Love with Clarins

Whoops!!! Guess there's just something not that right with my 'research' last night...I misunderstood things actually...hehe...so, here's some correction...

Clarins Eye Revive Beauty Flash (cost RM140) is not an eye cream, it's an eye booster. It will enhance tired eyes and make them instantly radiant. Normally applied in the morning (at least that's what the sales girl at the counter told me). So, since it's not an eye cream, and I desperately need an eye cream for now, this is what she suggest:



Clarins Eye Contour Balm:

Maintain youthful eye expressions, longer.
This lightweight, easily absorbed lotion is the perfect daily treatment to help minimize the appearance of fine lines and crow's feet. A "spéciale" version is also available for dry skin or those who live in cold climates.

Beauty Benefits :
- Helps minimize the appearance of fine lines and crow's feet.
- Softens and moisturizes.
- Leaves skin fresh and matte, facilitates make-up application.
- Suitable for sensitive eyes and/or contact lens wearers.

Ingredients :
- Light correcting pigments (optically diminish fine lines and wrinkles)
- Natural skin-softening complex.
- Shea (Nourishes)

Price: RM135.00

And instead of getting the Clarins Eye Revive Beauty Flash, the sales girl suggest me to go for Clarins Shaping Facial Lift. It covers more of the skin (can be use for the surrounded-eye-skin), and will prevent future fine lines for the whole face...well, for my age I do think it's somehow too early to use this product, but since I'm really curious about it and really cared about the fine lines I have below my eyes...must well, you know...care about the future ones too...hehe...



Clarins Shapping Facial Lift:

That isn't all...because of my spendings (the 2 product above cost me RM330), the sales girl generously gave some samples. And here's another good product, Clarins Total Body Lift (although I just used it once...about half an hour ago...?) I just fell in love with the scent!!! Very soothing and comfortable...smells like some kind of tea plant...and yea, it's definitely a product to use especially when you're tired. No scrubbing is needed, so you don't have to scrub your legs/hips trying get rid of cellulite after a tired day. Definitely a must buy product!!!
