What it is: The French brand’s bestselling serum gets a new, lightweight update.
Billed as being suitable for all skin types, including those with oily and sensitive skin, the “ultra light texture” formula features a blend of 21 plant extracts to help boost five functions of the skin: regeneration, nutrition, oxygenation, hydration and protection. The lightweight serum features “evanescent” oils that leave a “barely there finish” on skin.
The skin serum can be used daily, morning and night, to improve signs of aging such as wrinkles, radiance and pore size, according to the brand.
What we say: Our tester, who has combination-oily, acne prone skin, was impressed by how lightweight this new iteration felt on her skin.
Applied after cleansing, she found one to two pumps was all that was needed to completely cover the face and neck.
Boasting a light, floral-fruity fragrance, the serum provides skin with an instant smoothness, she reports. Unlike some sera, which can feel tacky or slick on skin, she found this serum delivered on its claims of quick absorption and vanishing without a trace.
The product wore comfortably under other skin-care products such as sunscreen as well as makeup without feeling oily or weighed down. With use, she found her skin appeared more smooth and radiant.
Where to get it:Clarins, clarins.ca.
What it will cost you: $140.
