Fight Aging with Clarins Double Serum!

I'm falling in love with Clarins day after day! 

After 10 days of Clarins Shaping Facial Lift Total V Contouring Serum, my face is firmer, more lifted and sharper! I didn't expect to see such quick result but it's really amazing! More on it soon!



Clarins Masterclass

Before I go on to rave more about the V Contouring Serum, let me first share some good stuff from the Clarins Masterclass last Saturday. 

No, we didn't exactly sit through the class in a lecture theatre or a meeting room. Instead, Clarins brought us on an eye-opening experience at the Open Farm Community - a chic restaurant nicely tucked in Dempsey that grows their ingredients like herbs, spices, fruits and vegetables right in their very own farm.

Like Open Farm Community, Clarins love nature. When it comes to ingredients, Clarins prefers plant-based extracts from plants grown locally or in a fair trade program over synthetic ones which may offer similar effectiveness and sensorial pleasure. Isn't that what many of us are looking for?

Together with 12 other beauty and lifestyle influencers, we learnt more about our skin types, Clarins anti-aging products range, the right way to apply the products and tips for beautiful skin before dipping our hands into salad making. 


We had Clarins consultant, Grace, to take us through the class and demonstration. She's certainly a life testimony of Clarins, her skin is so radiant and glowing! As we moved on from 20's to 30's to 40's, our skin needs different formulation to fight the aging process.

Over here, you can see the award winning Double Serum for all age group, Muti-Active Range for the 20's, Extra-Firming Range for the 30's and Super Restorative Range for the 40's.


The best-selling Clarins Double Serum stood out and I just couldn't get my hands of it! Read on if you want a younger and revitalised looking skin. 

Clarins Double Serum has a unique formula with 5 anti-ageing functions that promises a visibly youthful look: firmer skin, visibly reduced wrinkles, more even complexion and less visible pores. 


It consists 20 powerful plant extracts like Avocado, Lemon thyme, Green Banana, Kiwi, Green Tea to deliver optimum anti-ageing power to revitalise skin cells.

What are the 5 anti-ageing functions?

1. Regeneration - Firmness & Density
2. Oxygenation - Skin radiance & Luminosity
3. Nutrition - Suppleness & Tone
4. Protection - Prevention of fines lines and wrinkles
5. Hydration - Softness & Comfort

As its name suggests, this bottle combines two powerful age-defying serums into one golden ratio. Whether you have normal, dry, combination or oily skin, this award winning anti-ageing serum helps fight all aspects of visible ageing keeping you looking younger, for longer. 

Like an excited child, I started using it that very night. My skin appeared more radiant the next morning and I find my pores smaller after a few days of application. I will share more about my skin condition and update on the improvement when I share about the V-Contouring Serum but for now, my skin feels pumped up apart from a couple of bumps that are clearing up.

In a few days time, Clarins will launch the improved Super Restorative Range. It's rich, nourishing, creamy but not oily. This range helps to replenish and restore mature skin.


Proper Application Methods 

Fighting wrinkles starts before they even appear. I was horrified to hear that the way we apply and clean our face will actually cause our skin to wrinkle. 

Instead of the usual spreading method, we should just warm the product, apply products with the whole surface of the hands (don't pull or rub the skin) and apply firm but gentle pressing motions. Look out for the application video here - the 3rd little square at the left corner. There are more other application methods on the website as well.

Tips for Beautiful Skin

Well-balance lifestyle is what we need for beautiful skin and these 4 simple steps can help us in a long way! 

1. Sleep the right way
Sleeping in certain position can cause "sleep lines". To reduce wrinkles, sleep on your back.  

2. Healthy Diet, Healthy Skin
Eating healthy is also important for healthy skin. Have at least 4 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. 

3. Don't Forget the SPF 
Sunscreen is something you shouldn't leave home without.  

4. Find Your Routine
The proper skin care routine and products can help prevent and reduce aging signs.
