Actually I think you are right about the streamlining – it’s all a lot of the same tbh. I adored Double Serum though when I was trying it. If you want to truly be rid of lines, filler, a lift or botox is really the only option. I’ve tried all sorts of things over my career and think perhaps they’re all just roads to the same destination which for those who really cannot bear their ageing skin will be a full face lift. Primarily these days I look for glow and smoothness – I have no problem with lines on my face – smile lines etc but I do mind a bit about my neck. I’m trying not to 🙂

I usually tell people I’m having a “tropical moment”!

On a more serious note: I like Clarins creams but they are confusing, They have the Extra Firming and Nutri-Lumiere creams, both of which address dry skin and which seem almost identical to the Super Restorative, based on my own experience. They all do a fine job of moisturizing skin but I detect absolutely no reduction in wrinkles or in lifting bits of sagging flesh. For that I go to my aesthetic dermatologist (Thermage + fillers).

I use Clarins oils, Double Serum and creams because they work for me (61 yrs old, dry skin) but I just ignore all the words around them, so much noise about nothing. I think the company needs to streamline their product offerings.

I have also noticed a creeping increase in the prices of Clarins skincare and at some point, I say “Basta!” because I’d rather spend that money on effective skincare treatments at my dermatologist’s office.

I don’t know how many people feel this way about the prices of creams and serums these days.

love it!

I second this comment! I work with someone who had an early menopause, and she got me in the habit of referring to my hot flushes as “personal summers.”

haha.. I hear you :-)))
