CLARINS
The key to youthful skin is found in firmness.
Naturally over time, we begin to notice wrinkles setting in and deepening, loss of face structure, definition and a diminished bounce to the skin.
The answer lies with collagen – the key protein of skin firmness. Collagen acts as the building block protein of skin’s connective tissue, a key contributor to skin’s firmness and elasticity.
With 40 years of expertise in skin firmness, Clarins has developed a solution.
Introducing the NEW Extra-Firming duo – for firm & lifted skin
What is collagen?
Collagen is a key protein involved in maintaining skin’s firmness, making the skin resilient to stretching and wrinkling.
However, collagen levels start to deplete from your mid-20s and then drop significantly from 40 which can lead to a loss of skin’s firmness and bounciness.
To restore skin’s firmness we need to replenish skin’s collagen reserves. To ensure a good level of collagen reserves, you need to have the right quantity, as well as good quality and well-structured collagen.
How is it possible?
The Innovation – A Clarins Exclusive [Collagen]** Technology
A powerful trio of pro-collagen ingredients, this innovation targets collagen’s quality, quantity and structure to restore skin’s bounciness, reduce the appearance of wrinkles and visibly improve firmness.

Why Day & Night Moisturisers?
The skin’s function is subject to something called chronobiology (chrono meaning time). This describes how the skin has different functions during the day and night.
During the day the skin’s main role is defence, protecting us from external aggressors linked mainly to our environment and our lifestyle (UV, pollution, stress, air conditioning, cold, heat, etc). Its job is to act as an active shield. That’s why our day creams contain protecting ingredients such as Clarins exclusive Anti-Pollution Complex and an optional SPF.
The Anti-Pollution Complex includes organic white horehound extract to reinforce skin’s antioxidant defences, furcellaria extract to protect skin from dehydration caused by pollution, and nipplewort extract to help reduce oxidative damage.
At night, the skin is mainly concerned with repair and renewal. Therefore, both Extra-Firming Night Creams contain ingredients that complement the night-time functions of your skin.
Clarins Extra-Firming Day Cream
In addition to the [COLLAGEN]† technology, all creams in the range are further enriched with organic oat sugars for an immediate lift effect, niacinamide to boost skin’s radiance and organic aloe vera extract for hydration.
