Product Description
A wonderful refreshing cream-gel for normal to combination skin which ensures a matte finish and long-wearing make-up, along with optimal hydration, thanks to Katafray bark extract. Ideal for warm climates.
I received a 5ml sample
after a lengthy consultation with the friendly Clarins promoter. It lasted me less than a week but it has already won me over, with its efficacy and effectiveness.If you have been following my blog, you would have noted that I tend to incline towards water-based skincare products because I believe thats what work best for my skin.
After Clarins started their campaign in giving out samples for your skin type, I had the chance to try out some of their products and I have been truly impressed with some of them. No kidding.
I have combination skin, with surface dehydration and sensitive at times, hence hydrating products are always on the top of my list.
Recommended for normal to combination skin and light blue in colour, it has a nice subtle plant extracts scent which is pretty soothing to me.
Visually, it looks like a lighter version of cream but the texture is light and gets absorbed into the skin without any greasy feel.
I matched this cream-gel, together with their serum and I really love it. I love how my skin looks healthier, hydrated and plumped up with moisture.
In fact, there were no flakiness on my skin, despite being in an air-conditioned room for 2 whole days, which was pretty impressive.
However, I do not see any improvement in my sebum production and my combination skin is still oily when mid day comes.
Retailing at $88, I thought its pretty expensive and the worst thing is, it contains alcohol as its 2nd ingredient.
I really love this product but because of its alcohol content, I have to let it go.
