I decided to test out a few elements of the collection out for myself and picked up the RE-MOVE Micellar Cleansing Milk*, RE-FRESH Hydrating Beauty Mist*, RE-BOOSTING Comforting Hydrating Cream* and RE-CHARGE Relaxing Sleep Mask*.
RE-MOVE Micellar Cleansing Milk* was the part of the collection I was most interested in trying out as I have been using micellar cleansing waters for year but not tried a milky formula before. This is one of the simplest things to do in a skincare routine and takes seconds to sweep this across your skin on a cotton pad. If you are lazy with your routine this is the perfect way to start without reaching for dreaded facial wipes (trust me see Caroline for more on this). It gently cleanses and removes make-up to leave your skin still feeling hydrated and clean. Moringa extract helps cleanse the skin's surface and remove traces of pollution while Fig extract has a super moisturising to leave your skin feeling comfortable. It retails at £17 but a little goes a long way so it will last you a while!
RE-FRESH Hydrating Beauty Mist* is slightly less of as necessary step in a basic routine but a nice one to add in for that extra boost of hydration. This lovely glass bottle contains a floral, fruity beauty water to help moisturise, promote radiance and prep skin for the day or night. With Clarins Healthy Skin (In&Out) Complex: coconut water and Alpenrose extract to help rebalance and boost your skins radiance. Fig extract is also in this mist with its moisturising power, acerola seed for a fresh complexion and robinia flower water to soften skin, and to top it off its alcohol free! Its suggested use it on cleansed skin before your moisture but you can use it whenever you feel the need for some extra hydration. I'm a big fan of mist just for that extra boost so this has joined my vanity! The spray on the nozzle is also really nice and even.
RE-BOOSTING Comforting Hydrating Cream* has been my moisturiser of choice in the mornings. It has a light whipped cream texture and a little goes a long way. With 95% natural ingredients its super charged with coconut water and Alpenrose extract to help rebalance and boost radiance. While goji berry extract gives skin an energy boost, fig extract with super moisturising power, shea butter to comfort and sooth skin and finally acerola seed extract and tamarind pulp acids for a fresh, rosy complexioned smooth skin texture. I found my skin still felt hydrated at the end of the day which I haven't found with a lot of other products I have tried over the years and feels plump and refreshed so I'm really impressed.
RE-CHARGE Relaxing Sleep Mask*has a really light texture but its still just as powerful. Again it is infused with the Healthy Skin (In&Out) complex of coconut water and Alpenrose extract. It also has acerola seed extract, fig extract and huang qi extract to help detox and hydrate overnight. This product can be used as a super soothing night cream or 1-3 times a week as a sleep mask. This is the most expensive part of the collection but again for £24 I don't think that's bad for a product that's 93% natural ingredients and lasts as a little goes a long way. I love putting this on before bed because it not only smells amazing, I also wake up with soft, hydrated skin in the morning!
I've really been enjoying adding these to my skincare routine and can say they'll be staying there for a while! Obviously the products I wrote about are what my skin needs and there are a few more in the line for if you have more of an oily complexion that they offer. They also have a CLEAR-OUT Blemish Targeting Gel* and PORE-LESS Blur and Matte Stick* which are more targeted treatments for oilier complexions. Along side a RE-MOVE Purifying Cleansing Gel* and RE-BOOST Matifying Hydrating Cream for Oily Skin* which are all more suited to oily skin. All of the products range from £15 to £24 which I don't think is bad for a premium brand. Let me know if you have tried any of these new My Clarins products!
