Born again in 3 weeks

- Cecile Van Straten -
Just like everyone else (probably), there are days I feel good or OK and there are days I pray I don’t bump into anyone. It could be due to bad hair, a bad outfit, bad mood, or bad skin.

While bad hair can be fixed by a trip to a salon, bad outfit can be changed or bought, and a bad mood can be fixed by good friends or good food (or maybe good meds), bad skin is something that needs to be worked on.

Stress, overwork, lack of sleep, or a change of weather can make your skin feel dull. Then one morning you wake up and suddenly realize you still have that tired look even with hours of sleep. Dark spots are more visible and your face is puffy and dry.

How can you restore a bright, even complexion–the one you had when you were feeling good?Now your skin can be "born again" with an exceptional treatment program from years of Clarins Research.Clarins introduces White Plus Skin Renew Whitening Program to renew the skin in just 21 days.

After three weeks, use of the product should reduce visible effects of stress, fatigue and aging; prevent pigmentation; and eliminate visible results of skin dysfunction and rebalance natural skin-cell functions.

Clarins White Plus Skin Renew Whitening (P5,700) comes in a sleek package of a clear white box with six small vials of concentrate divided into three weeks.

"Born-again" skin can be achieved in just two simple steps: Skin Renew Concentrate + Whitening Concentrate are applied one after the other only at night instead of your regular skin products.

Step 1: Skin Renew Concentrate restores balance to cell functions with an upstream action on skin nerve endings.


A dull complexion, more visible dark spots, loss of firmness, and more pronounced signs of fatigue–these are caused by the weakening of the skin’s nerve endings.

So the primary action of Skin Renew Concentrate is to project key skin controllers to coordinate the healthy functioning of all skin cells.

Skin Renew Concentrate goes to the root cause of skin problems and treats it globally using the following ingredients:

Glistin,
an active sequence of amino acids protects skin nerve endings from the effects of stress and aging.

To slow down the enlargement of dark spots, Lotus Zymbiosome, a plant extract, is used to control pigmentation disorders, characteristic of very tired skin and which appear even without exposure to UV.

Subtilisin,
a keratolytic enzyme obtained through biotechnology, very gently exfoliates dead cells that tired skin can no longer properly eliminate.

Brown Linseed
slows down the formation of inflammatory molecules by skin cells and limits the penetration of external aggressive agents.

Polysaccharide
helps skin restore and maintain its moisture balance.To help skin recover better and faster, Alistin is used as a powerful anti-free radical dipeptide to help preserve cell membranes which are vital for balanced skin function.

Vitamin E and Buddleia and thyme extracts
preserve cell membranes and collagen fibers from harmful free radicals and prolong skin firmness.

Step 2: Immediately follow with Whitening Concentrate to reveal an incredibly bright, transparent complexion through a reinforced whitening action.


To effectively block the overproduction of melanin, Clarins Research has enriched the Lock-Around System in its White Plus treatments with two powerful anti-melanogenesis active ingredients:

A guava extract rich in Vitamin C and a lipophilic derivative of Vitamin C to slow down hyperpigmentation linked to UV or inflammation and limit overproduction of melanin inside the melanocyte.

Combining different forms of Vitamin C enables optimal absorption and guarantees rapid, continuous diffusion. Whitening Concentrate reenergizes the skin more effectively and blocks the reactivation of pigmentation. In addition, it gives skin lasting firmness, as Vitamin C encourages the synthesis of collagen.

Extracts of Japanese mandarin and grapefruit exfoliate dead cells and rapidly brightens the complexion by preventing the accumulation of new melanin pigments on the skin’s surface.

To stimulate blood and lymphatic microcirculations in tired skin, flavanoids from parsley, raspberry and guava are used.

And because beautiful skin also means clean, matte skin, Whitening Concentrate contains gentian and strawberry extracts to detoxify pores and regulate sebaceous secretions.
