Meet The Firming Skincare Range Our Beauty Director Actually Rates
WHAT SETS THE FORMULA APART
We're all on the hunt for skincare that works hard, especially post-winter when you might notice your complexion looking a little duller than usual. Thankfully, dedicated glow-boosting products, formulated to supercharge collagen production, can make all the difference.
Clarins is known – and loved – for its science-backed, botanical-powered formulas that feel indulgent yet still deliver visible results. From nourishing treatment oils to line-smoothing serums, the brand specialises in high-performance skincare. Within the Extra-Firming range, a thoughtfully curated line-up designed to target loss of elasticity, Clarins has just launched the new-and-improved Extra-Firming Energy Day Cream, and it's proven to be a welcome addition to the routine of a busy beauty director. Here's Jenn's verdict...
THE IMPRESSIVE RESULTS
Alongside plumping up your skin and creating a smoother, bouncier canvas, the Extra-Firming Energy Cream enhances your skin’s natural glow by an impressive 33%* and improves firmness by 28%* – ideal for helping you appear fresher and more rested. Powered by the brand’s exclusive [Collagen]³ Technology (a targeted blend of collagen polypeptide, mitracarpus extract and pecan tree extract), it boosts your natural collagen reserves by 53%** and delivers noticeably firmer skin in just seven days.
THE ECO PACKAGING
As well as delivering visible results, Clarins has also prioritised sustainability across the range. All the Extra-Firming moisturisers now feature refillable packaging, designed to reduce waste without compromising on luxury – simply replace the inner pod when you run out.
