Clarins Total Eye Smooth

We all know that the skin is our body’s biggest organ. It is the protective barrier between us and the world. That’s why I take skincare so seriously and find it so strange when people don’t!

Some sections of our skin are stronger than others and need to be tended to with hydrating creams and moisturizing serums. Other parts, like our face, especially the thin skin around our eyes, need even more specialized attention.

From my own personal field research—and by that I mean trying every cream out there!—I have narrowed down my faves and have the brands I can rely on to produce scientifically proven healthy and targeted skincare formulas that actually work.

Clarins has been around since the 50s. That’s a good 70 years of science and innovation they’ve got under their belt. Made in France with a promise to be eco-friendly and produce responsible skincare solutions, Clarins has long-been known for their incredible product line.

Over the last little bit, I’ve started using their Total Eye Smooth serum. Visibly reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles around my eyes, it works by firming the skin and enhancing radiance in the area. It has a smoothing effect and helps eliminate that puffy look. Scented with the sweetness of rose and camellia, I always feel refreshed after I apply it.

By applying pressure with the pads of my finger from my inner eye out to the temple, I help relax the area and promote an even more radiant eye area. One of my favourite tips is adding a dollop of the Radiance-Plus Golden Glow Booster to the Total Eye Smooth serum. A little self-tanner for an added slow build of that summer glow, the two work to give off a natural sun-kissed look.

Nourishing my skin with only the best of the best, I am always committed to the health and beauty of my skin. By adding some regenerating serums to my morning (and nightly) routine, I take care of my body not only with what I put in it, but what I put on it. How do you take care of your skin?
