The first step in taking care of your skin: perfecting your skincare routine! At Clarins, we’ve developed a skincare collection for every age, targeting skin concerns from dullness and fatigue to wrinkles and fine lines. My Clarins is a new collection for young people 25 and under, to help you understand your skin type and care for your skin with a simple 3-step routine for all skin types. Whether you have oily skin, dry skin, or combination skin, My Clarins’ collection of cleansers, targeted day creams and night creams is a great way to help get your skincare routine started.

Face serums are the ultimate beauty secret: select the right serum for you based on your skin's needs and use alongside your cream for maximum results. Clarins's serums harness the powers of technology and plants, bringing you a highly concentrated dose of the very best active ingredients for a tailored solution to your skin's needs. Our face serums are quickly and easily absorbed, priming skin for the products you go on to apply.

Finding your skin type is essential if you want to find out whether you have normal skin, oily skin, dry skin, or combination skin. Fortunately, Clarins’ skin expertise is here to help ! First, remember that sebum is responsible for maintaining skin’s water levels beneath the surface, keeping skin moisturised. Normal skin produces more or less the correct amount of sebum to keep skin hydrated. Oily skin produces too much sebum, which can lead blemishes forming. Dry skin doesn’t produce enough sebum, leaving skin appearing dry and flaking or feeling tight and stretched. Combination skin often has an oily T-zone (forehead, nose and chin) and dry cheeks.

Selecting the right serum for your skin starts with identifying your specific needs and objectives. For anti-aging benefits, options with hyaluronic acid or peptides can be beneficial. If you aim for better hydration, look for serums containing ceramides. For a brighter complexion, vitamin C serum is a popular choice. Always examine the list of substances included, and prefer products that are free from harmful additives. Reading reviews from other users can be insightful and may help you make a more educated choice.

In your morning routine, a face serum should be applied to freshly cleansed skin before you put on your day cream. Serums with antioxidants, such as Vitamin C or Hyaluronic Acid Serum, are particularly beneficial in the morning as they help protect your skin from environmental stressors throughout the day.

For your evening routine, apply a face serum to clean skin before your night cream. This is an excellent time to use serums with active ingredients like retinoids or hydrating formulas, as the skin's natural repair process is more active while you sleep. Applying the serum first ensures that its concentrated ingredients can penetrate the skin most effectively.

An anti-aging serum is a specialized skincare product formulated to target the signs of aging on the face, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots. Unlike regular moisturizers, anti-aging serums contain higher concentrations of active ingredients like harungana (effective as retinol), hyaluronic acid, and peptides. These key components work synergistically to promote collagen production, enhance skin elasticity, and hydrate the skin at a cellular level. Serums penetrate deeper into the skin layers, providing fast and long-lasting results.

When applied regularly, anti-aging serums can significantly improve skin texture and tone, giving you a more youthful, radiant appearance. Brands like Clarins offer a range of serums tailored for different age groups and skin types, ensuring that you get the most effective, targeted treatment. It's essential to choose a serum that suits your specific skin concerns for optimal results. Integrating an anti-aging serum into your daily skincare routine is a proactive step in fighting the natural aging process.

The effectiveness of an anti-aging serum can vary depending on its ingredients and your skin type. However, most high-quality serums containing potent ingredients like retinol, hyaluronic acid, or peptides may show initial results within 2-4 weeks. These early signs often include smoother skin texture and reduced fine lines. For deeper wrinkles and more significant signs of aging, consistent usage for at least 3-6 months is generally recommended. Keep in mind that the key to lasting results is consistent and proper application, usually applying the serum once or twice daily on cleansed skin. Consult your dermatologist for personalized advice.
