We can colour away our grey hairs, but our crow’s feet and fine lines…mmm…not so easy to hide. Unless we opt for Botox and then, still, there are the puffy pockets, dry patches and dark circles that all pop up when we least expect them to.
Clarins’ range of Total Eye under eye skincare products Smooth, Contour, Hydrate and Revive are (thankfully!) helping. And while we reach for and swipe on a tiny dollop of each one often, sometimes even mixing two silky soft formulas together, we find ourselves predominantly using Smooth’s eye balm to firm up our skin and reduce the appearance of those pesky unwanted fine lines the most.
Fuelled with organic kangaroo flower and mitracarpus extracts to firm our skin along with horse chestnut and plant-based caffeine to eliminate dark circles and puffiness, the fine thin skin below our lashes looks better with every application. Serum-like smooth, the balm’s formula also provides a line-filling texture that gives our face an instantly youthful effect, so that when we smile, because we do often, we radiant instead of crinkling. And while each iteration has its own unique purpose, all of composed by organic, fair trade plant extracts to help care for our delicate skin. The Total Eye range is also enriched by the French brand’s anti-pollution complex to give our skin extra protection against indoor and outdoor pollution, making these handy-dandy skincare helpers our latest go-to items.
