I have fallen in love with the new range of Clarins Calm-Essentiel products. The Clarins Calm Essentiel Restoring Treatment Oil has taken my skin from dry to nourished. I have skin that is starting to present fine lines (as it is facing 40+) and the summer sun has dried it out.
The restoring treatment oil comes in a perfect sized bottle that allows you to control the amount you drop on your fingers to massage into your skin. The scent is subtle and earthy that after a few days of use brings a calm when you smell it. I used this oil at night after cleansing and toning. It added a smoothness, nourished feel to my skin on my face and neck.
I love that this product has a minimum of 95% natural ingredients, making me feel like I'm not adding an over abundance of chemicals to my skin, especially right before bed. I would combine a few drops with the Clarins Calm-Essentiel soothing emulsion and the two felt like heaven on my skin. The sensitivity of my skin reduced due to the use of these products.
A great product, easy to use and affordable. I highly recommend using the Clarins Calm-Essentiel Restoring Treatment Oil on skin that is sensitive, aging or needs that extra bit of love.
I did quite enjoy this oil. I wouldn't say it soothes as such but it is nice to use this with my Gua Sha to massage my face. Absorbs nicely and doesn't leave my skin feeling overly oily which is great. Would recommend to avoid around the eye area though as some ran down my face before I could rub it in and got into my eye and left me with a "slippery eye" for hours the first time I used it.
