The Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is a lovely little 'extra' product. It is certainly not an essential product, however if you have some spare cash or can get it as part on a deal/gift pack then it is a great product to use. This product claims to 'brighten' and it does this to some extent. This may be more evident on older, dehydrated skin. When used as a make up primer it doesn't significantly alter the skin, but it does ensure that my make up stays fresh and doesn't move. The product smells divine, like manderins. I wouldn't use this as a mask as the product is expensive and I would use it sparingly. There are certainly better masks out there.

How to apply

Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
This is a cult product, but I find on my oily skin it needs to be used sparingly. It's great for tired skin, as a primer, or can be used as a mask.
Tips: Pat onto skin, don't rub! or it starts to rub off.

Really like it!
I really like the feel of this product, it makes my skin feel great, and can be used as a mask, but would hate to waste it by wiping it back off after 10 minutes!
To me, I wouldnt wear this as a primer, but more to give my skin a boost, or on the rare make up free day!

Clarins Beauty Flash Balm
I enjoy this product as a pick me up for my skin, but I find that it is not the best under my make-up. When I used it under my foundation it caused pilling/ my foundation flakes off around the edges of my face, jaw line etc
Tips: Use as a mask on a weekly basis

A goodie
I have had this product in my kit for about 4 years. It is the one thing I can rely on to refresh my skin. I love the texture and smell. I often dab it on at the end of the day when my make up needs reviving.
Tips: Use it to give neck and decolletage a youthful plumped up look...a little does go a long way.

Love this product!
I put this on under my make up especially when I am going out at night and it feels and looks like an instant facelift without the needles. Smooths my fine lines and I feel fabulous!

Always in my repertoire of skin care
I use a selection of skin care brands not just one and always happy to try new products. BUT the Clarins Beauty Flash balm is my one constant in my skincare range, wonderful stuff!
Tips: Use morning and night after cleansing and moisturising skin

Works A Treat
This Beauty Flash Balm is my reliable 'go to' product especially when I'm tired and looking less than my best! Having just had 7 hours of surgery I was certainly looking worse for wear but using this product not only made me feel better, it actually worked on my skin to help remove the 'just had surgery and look like hell' look! I would absolutely recommend this Clarins product as a great pick me up. Yes, it is on the more expensive side but you don't need to use a lot and it lasts for ages. Definitely give it a try.

I regard this as a bit like a superpower - you don't use it on a daily basis but when your skin really needs a boost it's wonderful. I particularly like it after long flights or beach time - it's a balm - recovery & soothing.
Tips: I use sparingly - both in terms of timings and coverage. Occasionally and sparingly. My skin is quite sensitive and combination so that may be a factor there - you'll soon work out what's best for you.
