Clarins has literally made ppl tell me they can't believe I am 40 and not 23...! I am a skin care therapist and obey all the skin care rules, and I don't smoke... So that may help... But I truly believe that having used Clarins my whole life... Has contributed!!!
Anyone else freaked out by how much she's squeezing out? I realize it's just to demonstrate the texture/formula. But the penny-pincher in me is like "NO! It's a waste!!"
God yes!
It’s freaking me out as well.
oh my god, me too!
Jane Raine lol I came here to say the same! I am literally freaking out about it!!! I am like.. stop! Stooooop! 😂😂
Jane Raine yes
In 4.5 decades on planet earth Clarins Alpine is the best cleanser I’ve ever used, and I’ve tried probably hundreds. It is truly amazing.
I love Clarins- they do not get enough love on youtube.
Love The Clarins smell and also just listening to you gab. The amount of product you were squeaking out though was making me 😬 all I could think of was all that beautiful product going to waste 😂 xx
stacey Simpson I know but I had SO MUCH FUN!
Caroline Hirons next time squeeze into a pot and you can send them my way 😂😂 xx
Lol was coming down here to mention same thing. What a tragic loss of product 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😂
Cat O regan just heartbreaking for me as I can’t afford all of those products. However I can imagine having free reign to squeeze it out would have been quite satisfying haha x
I was thinking the same.... 🤣
Wow this yellow is popping and i love it
Saleha Samad Yeah it's lovely I agree. I have resolved to wear more yellow just now.
We need to know where this is from!
Thank you!
Saleha Samad Isn’t it fab on her?
Congrats 8 years , love your energy Caroline real woman ,God bless 💛💛💚💚💚💚💚💛💛💛💛💛💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Fantastic video! Love love love Clarins. (Must say I couldn't imagine NOT washing my face in the morning!)
I wish I could come see you in Liverpool near Champions League time. That would be loads of fun. Thanks for this video. Very informative!
My sister got me using clarins (starting with the tonic range) when I was pregnant on my first child. 4 children later (incl one newborn!) and I have no stretch marks. My sister passed away recently (the week before my new daughter was born) and clarins just reminds me so much of her....I smile and think of her everytime I use it. Great video as always xxx
So sorry for your loss.
I love Clarins and really enjoyed this video. Thanks Caroline.
Also you look gorgeous. That yellow top on you is 👌
Look at you, Misses Hirons! Using cutaways and being all fancy with your editing. Looking gorgeous, Caroline. XO.
was I the only one that was going "stop iiiitt! stop wasting so much product!" during the cutaways ?
Caroline, can you or a lovely assistant please post a video demonstrating cleansing technique for face. The instructions you give leave just a wee bit to be imagined.
You look so good in yellow, but I am not the only one noticing. Sure you already know.
I have never used Clarins. Mature age, may give it a try. I have stayed away from the big name brands.
Thanks Caroline from Australia.
Thank you Caroline, you are looking so radiant.
Love my Clarins and its always great to hear from u pros what u think about the products too. Being 60 now I would be the total idjiot not to have Clarins in my routine.
Great video and have a great week, xx
WOW you look great in yellow Caroline! I've never tried anything from Clarins...this was quite an education in products. I think I better go watch your other videos so I can learn more about cleansing. Gosh I hate to admit it but I'm one of the lucky ones with great genetics and some days I do wash in the morning but A LOT of the time I take Pixi Glow Tonic and just go over my face :/ I guess I better go learn more about this! Thanks for this info! ~~Mary
When you watch a CH video and you have restrain yourself from running down the street and buying all the cleansers.
You look great in bright yellow! Loved the video, you made me obsessed with cleansers Caroline and I cannot thank you enough 😃😍
I finished my Alpine Cleansing Milk this morning, and god do i love it to bits! I can’t even put into words how much, honestly. As for the Gentle Exfoliator - it completely transformed my skin (my first experience with acid, and a complete success. my skin texture is SO much better, it almost makes me cry because before i couldn’t look at my skin in makeup, it would be so flaky and bumpy). Thank you for your first Clarins’ overview, as i bought both of the products after that video x
Easy like Sunday Morning and Caroline.☘️
Every time I watch you or read your blog I learn something new. Like something so simple as putting the cleanser onto the face. Thanks. And I LOVE seeing you with Stephanie Nicole ❤️
I love the impression of a tight post-foaming cleanser skin. I was all "THAT'S IT! THAT'S THE FEELING!" Nailed it.
Would love to you you do a video like this but with their serums and moisturizers. This was an amazing video!! Thanks
Ok 👌🏼
Caroline Hirons is there a video about Clarins serums and moisturisers yet?
Not related to cleansing but everytime i use blue orchid treatment oil i almsot cry because the smell is so unbelievably relaxing/ soothing.
eliezuh law my favorite!!!!
ik, i’m onto my third one now, absolutely adore it
i love that oil. i bought the Santal one and the smell is not that great but still a good oil. i cant wait to finish this and go back to the blue orchid. hahaha
Let's appreciate the real star of this video. The hair. THE HAIR. Glam.
Love you knowledge and you videos/blogs/insta 💛💛💛and that you’ve got a yellow t-shirt like last Clarins video😍 wish you all the best and thank you for all work you serve us viewers 🙏☀️☀️☀️💛💛💛
I read a quote by a soap opera star once that you can’t go wrong with Clarins. After seeing your videos on the brand I agree with her and definitely want to try the brand for myself!!
Very excited to see you on Wednesday 😃
Hi, have used Clarins for many years and will always continue to use it. It suits my skin and they are super products. My favourite is the DOUBLE SERUM......just wow!!!!!!!!
So glad you made this video. I live clarins. Use the gentle exfoliater all over the fave but also on my legs now. I was on roacutane approx 2 years ago and after I stopped using it, I have a problem with ingrowns. I use this over my legs and it's amazing !
Great video, as always, but.. please don't squeeze/waste so much product. It broke my heart. Squeezing a small amount is enough to show the texture.
NO I WANTED TO HAVE FUN!
I took a sharp deep breath myself, but then laughed.
Very helpful! J’adore Clarins! Thank you!!!!
💛💛💛💛💛
This was so helpful!
Thanx Caroline for this fantastic introduction video, so now I understand a little bit more wich products for cleansing I need. I m quite new to CLARINS and all the cleansing products were a little bit confusing for me. I usually prefer soap and a toner afterwards to clean my face.
I used cleanser with cottonseed ALL last year. A pea sized amount was enouth for 1 cleanse. This winter I bought cleanser with shea butter and it's more rich. Some weeks ago I bought cleanser with moringa and it's fresh and gentle too.
Hello Caroline, coming from stephanie channel really enjoying your channel content. Live in Canada (Toronto) and I’m a clarins user among others brands. Is your tour coming to Toronto wish I could meet you and pick your brain. Take care and have a lovely week and tour 💕💕💕💕
I used the cleanser with the cottonseed and it dried my skin out terribly. My skin was tight as heck after using it. Love Clarins though will just have to try another one.
you look stunning in that top xx i have dry skin and texture and i have large open pores around my nose and i always get the one or two spots i'm 30 this year and i dont know what i should be using. if you were me what would you use, i do love clairns btw
I am also a big fan of Clarins and I always return to their eye makeup remover, I have very sensitive eye area and Clarins just works. Love this clip!
Thanks Caroline. Clarins was the first “proper” skincare that I bought for myself in the early 90s. (I’ll draw a veil over the Clinique experience before that.) I’m glad to see some of the same products still around. I must say my brain screamed about the wastage involved in squeezing in so much product into your hand. It seemed like a skincare sacrilege! 😂 I would appreciate a brand overview of the Clarins range. I do love all the indie brands, but there is something comforting about the familiarity of Clarins and I can pop down the road to buy some. Thank you once again.
I bought the Alpine cleanser when it was in one of your empties-videos and fell totally in love, THANK YOU 🙏 But I didn't know about the "suction" 😱 Have to try it tonight 👍
Can the one step exfoliant be followed by an acid toner, or is it too much exfoliation?
Congrats on your eight years, we love you ❤❤
Happy blogiversary!! Wishing you many more years to come! X
Can the cleansing milks (Alpine) be used as a morning cleanse?
Kaitlin Murphy Yes they can and they are awesome for that.
Wow the amount you squeeze out. Use it! Don't waste it!
donna fahey it was purely for fun for the video!
Caroline Hirons I know but I did scream do a trinny and wash your face with it all :) I can't wait to see you next week in dublin. It is the perfect excuse to get my head out of the books for my summer nursing exams :)
Gentiane is pronounced jen (like how you'd pronounce the french name "jean") - see - hun! Just so next time you'll know for sure! :)
mmh, in Italian Gentian is "genziana", with sweet g like in "sponge" or "gem" and with t now z like many other words from latin, that sounds, for a English-speaking, like the american pronunciation of Z 😵, Carolin, you're right
Claudia Gambino in italiano lo pronunciamo così, ma i francesi lo pronunciano diversamente, anche perché in francese la "g" dolce non esiste proprio :)
È bello comunque incontrare una viewer italiana di caroline!
hello, i bought the cleansing milk with alpine herbs (the green one) and used it for the first time today, i was shocked by how creamy and milky it is, it is so not like any other cleanser i used before. i wonder is it really a facial cleanser or just a makeup removing cleanser. also should i use water to damp my face first before applying it (like i did with other cleansers)? thank you
It’s personal preference. I prefer dry skin then massage through..
Hi Caroline, I thought this was so interesting, thank you so much! I went to Clarins today to get some samples to see what suits me best. I am 36 and thought I had a decent routine, but now i realise i need to tweek a few things. I am just so excited to try all these products and new techniques, a million times thank you!
Enjoyed this, thank you! have returned to using Clarins after using Clinique which started to really irritate my skin. Thanks for this, means so much to me.
clicked on your video and saw your yellow top and Wow!! had to stop and tell you how lovely you look..now getting back to watching the video.
Hi Caroline. What about the Clarins Gentle Refiner? Thanks xxx
Loved hearing more about Clairns. I have loved their chamomile toner for years and recently purchased the one with iris as it is better suited to my skin and like it equally as much as the chamomile. I also like their foaming cleansers and was pleased to hear they are of the good foaming variety. The only issue I have is the cottonseed one smells like a cleaning product we have in Australia called Jiff 😕 Love the brand reviews along with all your other videos, thanks Caroline 😊
Love this video and all things Clarins :) I didn't get on board the skin care wagon until after the gentle cleanser changed but I love the extra comfort cleanser! Quick question... do you need to double cleanse on an evening if you don't wear make up?? Look forward to seeing you at the Leeds Clarins meet up! Jen x
No. I don’t. X
Hi Caroline, absolutely love Clarins never realised how many cleansing choices - can I ask would you show how much product to use as a rule of thumb? Thank you!
Tracy Newell about a 50 pence piece size. I used to work for Clarins too.
So excited to actually see you on Monday for the Clarins cleansing talk!
You look so good in yellow.
Love all your videos! I am relatively new to your blog and read that five year old Clarins article on your blog a couple of months ago .. bought the ‘Gentian’ cleanser and love it.. glad to have discovered you.. your flannel cleansing method, the cleanser, acid toning, serums etc advice has totally changed my skin which was having some hormonal issues.. thank you so much for all you do!
Caroline, would the Alpine/Camomile duo be appropriate for skin with redness/rosacea, or the Ultra-Comfort cleanser? Thank you!
Lisa Reed depends how bad - I’d think it was fine unless you were on something from the doctor?
I do have a prescription for it and it is pretty well controlled unless I do something stupid and cause myself a flare up! I’ve been looking for a new cleanser and wanting to try a toner so I’m excited to go purchase this duo and give it a try! Thanks for replying, enjoy the evening!
Each rosacea is different completely understand that but I have rosacea and I use both if that helps. Perhaps go to your local counter and can get a sample and test it first before buying? Hope that helps!
well, I must say I am definitely a splasher:P.D
Great video. I’ve always been a bit intimidated by Clarins. Don’t know why. You’ve explained it all very clearly. Thanks Caroline.
THANK YOU for this video !!! Exactly what I needed as I rediscover Clarins again , best video on TH-cam x
I just bought a cleanser for dry skin because you said the washes were coconut based, there are most definitely SLS based.
Take it back and blame me. You'll get a refund. I'm so sorry.
Looking into it x
The girl at my local Clarins counter (Dundee, Scotland) is so lovely i legit want to be her friend, everytime i go she remembers all my specs and wont let me buy anything until I've tried a sample- i always do. Great vid Caroline! Xx
I loved loved those product squirts they look so pleasant to use, once I went to the Clarins counter and accidentally dropped a new tester bottle of serum to the floor and it broke I felt really bad so I bought the gentle cleansing gel and was blown away!! I've never re-purchase but this video made me remember about it! It was like 5 years ago. xoxo
Great review, Caroline^ thank you! Though I've been "Clarins and Cleansing" girl for years now, I discoverd a few new tips!
took your advise a few months ago and invested in the Clarins Double Serum..fantastic!! my skin has never looked as good..thank you Caroline!!!x
I'd love you to do the same with their oils and creams :)
Stephanie Nichole's shout outs are the best! I discovered your channel and JenLuvsReviews channel through her collabs, and I am so happy about it. When living in Mex City, my skin care was absolutely basic, since weather is not such a big factor. Now in NYC, I've discovered I need to take so many other steps to prevent breakouts, dryness, wrinkles, dull skin, etc. So, informative videos like yours are very helpful.
Love CLARINS! Caroline! A little off topic, but please tell me off I use a Clarins serum, then a face oil of any kind, why I'd by an expensive Clarins moisturizer since none of its good ingredients can break through the oil and get into my skin. Please help a girl out??
Clarins was my first experience of a skincare "routine" when I was about 18 years old, 9 years later and I am still loyal to Clarins for many products and I rely on Clarins Extra Comfort Cleansing cream whenever I have a problem or reaction ❤️ something about the clarins scents makes me feel so soothed and relaxed in seconds as well haha. also the clarins gift with purchase offers are ALWAYS the best 😂 Loved the video as always x
Clarins is the best...
Every time my husband hears me laughing watching videos, he knows you are "talking to me". And today was no different. Thank you! Please, Caroline, make a video like this with Body Shop products, will you? Pleeeaaaase!!!
Love Clarins and I’ve had the gentle eye makeup remover for years, it’s brilliant. I do prefer a cleansing milk as a morning cleanse when it’s warmer weather so I’ll check out alpine herbs 🌿! Brilliant video
ksaraw Alpine Milk is brilliant, you’ll love it! (the smell of it now screams “comfort” to me)
Love your videos Caroline and do love me some Clarins. Quick Q: which cleansers would you recommend for 2 wk hol to Thailand? I'm normal-dry and love a double cleanse. I usually use an oil/balm for first cleanse, followed by a cream/gel cleanser.
I love clarins so much. The pure melt gel is HEAVEN on my skin, I love their toners, their hydra quench range ( except the serum cause it smells like potato water) and their oil!
YES! They do not get enough love.
You look beautiful in yellow 💛 Can you please guide me with a routine for people who go to the gym? I go to work in the morning and go to the gym at luch! I go back to work after the gym. I wear makeup in the morning and take it all off after the gym and I need to put in on again in the afternoon and take it off again at night and I feel it’s too harsh on my skin! Please help!
Love all clarins products,good old cleansing milk i think it gives the skin a lovely clean.Clairns was the first good quality beauty routine i use nearly 40 years ago. Even though there is so much out there to try i always go back now and again to clarins. Thank you Caroline for this Video you always explain how to use the products so well x
You can hear gentiane here; th-cam.com/video/axSY7qShQ1I/w-d-xo.html (0:04 or 0:05). We crazy french make a liquor out of it too. It's nice and bitter, a bit like a stronger gin.
What a weekend 3 videos from Caroline. ... very informative. ..especially as the range is soo vast. ... n im a cleanser fanatic. .. so right up my street... loved the cutaways ofvthe product... As it showed the texture. .. btw... what happened to the cleanser you squeezed out. .. ☺☺☺
Great video Caroline. I love Clarins. I'm currently using the Pixi Glow Tonic, is the Exfoliating Toner the same/better?
Thanks for the video! I want to use Clarins, but the reason I haven't is that they have so many products that it's confusing to pick just a few. This really helps!
Hi Caroline. I love your page and all your skincare videos ... I'm into skincare myself, eat right and drink enough water... but I'm noticing pigmentation on my skin. Mainly on my cheeks... it's kind of like redness but with some dark spots too ... I've combination type skin and clean my pores out plus use a pore minimizing serum too ...but I'm still noticing the pigmentation..I'm sure its not acne or even rosacea as I don't breakout that often ...
I'm big into Clarins and thinking of the mission perfection serum or the white plus serum? If u have any videos you did on them or pigmentation issues in general? Also I don't use many of the products branded "for men" as I find it's all a marketing thing.... I know there are structural differences with men's vs women's skin but I havnt found a major difference in the products stating "for men" any tips or videos you could give me I'd be so grateful 😁💋
I am one of those boys who use Clarins. I love Clarins, used their products before they had a men's line. I still use the main line, as I find the men's line a bit greasy. Great video, Caroline!
Hi Caroline , I’ve been using Clarins for years , always saved for it when I was younger !! I always go back to it if I try anything else , the double serum is so good nothing like it worth every penny !
YOU'RE THE BEST
I LOVE the one step gentle exfoliator it's amazing for me exfoliating once a week which seems to suit my skin really well :)
hi Caroline, what do you think about Lancome cleansers?
Thank you!
Love these videos, thanks Caroline. Can I ask you do Clarins have an oil cleanser for normal to dry skin? 😘🤗
I got the Orange extract exfoliating cleanser as a gift a few months ago and stopped using it when I found out it has SLS in it. Maybe you have a newer formulation?
I wish had back up Extra Comfort Cleanser Pots. Oh that was my favourite. Haven’t had the courage to try the tube yet.
Lia - Hyde and Seek try the new one. It is still lovely on skin just not as rich.
So for dry skin not crazy dry but normal to dry face ... what should I use?
I have always loved the Alpine Cleansing Milk, probably because it is what my Mum uses and it reminds me of her, but my skin feels so good after using. Also, you look lovely in yellow!
I just love your videos!
Hi Caroline, I bought the one-step gentle exfoliating cleanser, the first few uses was fine but now every time I use it, it leaves the top of my cheeks and above my eyebrows really red. Do you know what might be causing this? I don't have sensitive skin I have only ever reacted to a makeup primer 4 years ago and never reacted to a skin care product.
Bee1808 switch to a traditional cleanser like gentian. It could be the scent or the beads. I’d guess your in your 20’s?
Hi Caroline - are you recommending NOT using an acid toner after using the Toning Lotion with Iris or the Toning Lotion with Camomile? I sometimes cleanse with the Gentle Foaming Cleanser with Shea Butter or the Cleansing Milk with Alpine Herbs and then follow up with one of the toners (swiping with a cotton pad) before using an acid and the rest of my routine.
Yes don’t waste your product. The entire point of acid is to throw your PH off kilter so skip ‘toner’ and go to acid. X
Love you & Clarins! Got my ticket for Birmingham half 6! See you then Caroline x
I used to love Clarins, but, sadly, they are not cruelty free, so I don't use their products anymore.
Wipes are the only thing I can use to take my mascara off! I wrap the wipe around my lashes and sort of twizzle my lashes between the wipe until theres no mascara left. I've tried so many methods and this is the fastest and most efficient for me, especially when I'm reapplying my makeup whilst wearing contact lenses (cleansing oil gets in my eyes and BYE BYE lenses when that happens!). When I use cotton pads on the whole eye area, the texture of them gives me sore eyelids.
Laura Crosby your 40year old self will wish you hadn’t used a wipe. It will create loser skin around your eyes. The gentle eye make up remover on a cotton pad will do just as good. Just without the dragging. Hold in against your eye and let it work it’s magic. If you wear waterproof mascara you will need the instant eye make up remover. Twizzling your eye lashes with a wipe could potentially cause eyelash loss.
Forgive me if this is a dumb question. The amount of cleanser you were squeezing into your hands to demonstrate each product, is that how much you should cleanse with?
No! I was just being dramatic. Xx
