Thankfully, there are formulas out there that can help your skin look its best again – like the new, refillable Extra-Firming Energy Cream from Clarins. Here’s why our beauty director loves it and why the rest of the line-up is worth trying...

Thankfully, dedicated glow-boosting products, formulated to supercharge collagen production, can make all the difference. [Clarins](//www.clarins.co.uk/skincare-face/200/extra-firming/?utm_source=sheerluxe&utm_medium=partnerships&utm_campaign=pa_uk_clarins_branding_aw_eng_prp_skn-fac-ant_xfi_0426_na_ef-energy&utm_content=article1_range) 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... Like a wake-up call for your skin, the Extra-Firming Energy Cream restores bounce & glow – it’s the ultimate skincare pick-me-up. When I’ve had a late night or an early start, I know I can rely on this to make me look less tired.
