The Clarins Duo That Just Works

I'm a daily uhmm-er and aahh-er when it comes to bath time. And by that I mean I never really know what to opt for when it comes to my evening soak - shower gels, bubble baths and body lotions coming out of my ears.... literally. However, recently I've been reaching for this Clarins duo on near enough a daily basis.

I'll admit, I love a good shower that leaves you all refreshed and full of zing.. but baths are definitely my fave, especially after a long day at work. A book and some bubbles and I'm all sorted.
As opposed to a bubble bath that smells like strawberries and sugar, I prefer a natural, fresh smell and Clarins have it down to a T with their Relax Bath & Shower Concentrate. Note: you can use it as a body wash when in the shower (also works a dream) but I prefer a couple of squeezes into the bath which creates hundreds.. and I mean hundreds.. of bubbles. It really is so relaxing and soothing, you can really smell the camomile which works a treat on an achy, tired body.

After my soak, I love whacking some moisture into my body, im a sucker for fake tan and it tends to leave me a bit more on the drier side, and Clarins' Satin Smooth Body Lotion works a treat. It smells good - nothing too strong but enough to linger around for a while. It doesn't have that tacky, greasy film that some body lotions tend to have either, which is always a plus. Slather on a layer of this, throw on my pjs and into bed I hop. A more pricey bath time I know, but it's definitely worth it - nothing else can compare at the moment.

After this duo, I really am a bed ready babe.

The Quick Cleanse

Whether it's after a night out or just genuinely down to complete exhaustion from a hectic day at work, there's always one thing that we dread - removing your make-up! Now, don't get me wrong, I love feeling fresh and getting rid of every last scrap of make-up that's been on my face during the day (or night..oops) but taking it all off is one of the banes of my life sometimes. 

Despite the fact that you are supposed to give your skin a lovely deep clean morning and night, sometimes I just don't have the time - or energy, and that's where these two fabulous products come in handy. 

The Clarins Water Comfort One Step Cleanser gently removes face makeup, and leaves your skin feeling fresh, smooth and ultra soft due to coconut, peach and moringa seed extracts. It literally smells good enough to eat! Now, I'm a lover of heavy eye make-up even on a day to day basis but I have to say that removing it was never an easy job. Left over bits of mascara that were literally attached to my eyelashes, specks of shimmer from eye shadow that just wouldn't budge - until I was introduced to the Clarins Instant Eye Make-Up Remover. It's a biphase lotion that you shake and then pour onto a cotton pad, hold over your eye for 15-20 seconds, wipe away and it's all gone! Extracts of cornflower, camomile and rose leave your eyes feeling refreshed and soothed, and help to condition and strengthen your lashes at the same time - it's a win win situation really!

The Instant Eye Make-Up Remover is a staple in my daily skincare routine, I honestly cannot go with out it, and the One Step Facial Cleanser does make taking off my make-up a lot easier, I can definitely see myself reaching for this when I'm on holiday!

So there it is, the quality Clarins quick cleanse duo. A must have.
