Clarins Everlasting Youth Fluid Foundation

Everlasting Youth Fluid is the latest foundation launch from Clarins and it’s a little bit special.

This illuminating concentrate is a makeup/skincare hybrid thanks to its superior skin care qualities paired with exceptional makeup expertise.

Specially formulated to help restore a youthful radiance to your complexion, it contains a cocktail of skin tightening, anti-pollution, collagen boosting ingredients that work to perfect your skin while a skin tone optimising complex brightens and evens out skin tones.

But how does this work?

The lightweight fluid contains chicory which helps to boost collagen while red jania extract improves the reflection of light on the surface of your skin by encouraging the removal of dead cells through exfoliation.

Plumping konjac micropearls combine with nourishing argan oil and skin tightening organic sugar oats to help leave your skin feeling fuller, firmer and beautiful.

Organic nipplewort, organic white horehound and furcellaria help to protect your skin from the harmful effects of the environment which along with SPF 15 UVA/UVB protection ensures long lasting sun protection.

In short, you’re left with a foundation that protects against pollution, protects against sun damage and allows skin to breathe while imparting superior hydration.

That’s pretty mega for a product that is not specifically skincare I’d say!

In terms of the makeup elements of the fluid, the formula has been boosted with a skin tone optimising complex which helps to combat the loss of radiance with age.

A combination of pigments, pink pearls and soft focus powders help to even out your complexion, blur imperfections and create a more radiant you.

I would say that the foundation itself offers light to medium coverage. Its texture is rich and creamy yet when applied it glides across your skin effortlessly and doesn’t feel at all heavy or clogging.

Lightweight yet with a decent amount of coverage, it instantly perks up a dull complexion whist blurring minor imperfections and evening out my skin tone.

Unlike some foundations which feel like they instantly sap moisture from your skin, Clarins Everlasting Youth Foundation is really comfortable and pleasant to wear.

My skin feels hydrated throughout the day but equally it managed to control my oily t-zone with relative ease.

I love the idea of looking after and protecting your skin while indulging in cosmetics and this is something that Clarins does expertly.

Clarins Everlasting Youth Fluid is available now in 24 shades and costs £35.
