This range is mainly for a young skin, so it's not something I use. I bought this gift set for my grand daughter (aged 22) for Xmas because she loves it, and wouldn't use anything else. She loves the fresh smell, the bloom it gives her skin, and the fact that it's so easy to use.

Just like magic! The Clarins Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch is an invisible 'second skin' base that smoothes surface skin and minimizes the appearance of wrinkles, fine lines and dilated pores. It is a perfect marriage of make-up and skin care that creates a spectacular beauty effect. Its magical melting, invisible texture perfectly smoothes the skin by leaving an imperceptible veil over its surface. Wrinkles and fine lines are visually minimized to guarantee a flawless complexion. The silicone gums create a comfortable texture, making this a delight to wear either on its own or under your favourite foundation. Apply with the fingertips, applying a thin layer to the face. If using before make-up, wait a few minutes before applying foundation. Acacia Micro-Pearls sink into wrinkles and fine lines and increase in size as they absorb moisture naturally released by the skin, to smooth its surface Vitamin E protects the skin

I have a couple of large pores round my nose (childhood chicken pox) and most primers didn't cover them. Then I was given a tiny pot of Clarins to try, and lo and behold total coverage. It's light and creamy, goes on a treat, and a little goes a very long way. Foundation goes on easier and my skin looks so much better after using this. Perfection in a pot. Note to BFF to add to xmas present list! Great service from Escentual's as always.

''The Clarins Purifying Toning Lotion is designed to purify skin, tighten pores and help remove every last trace of cleanser. The result? A complexion that's soft, refined, hydrated and toned.'' - Kate, Escentual Beauty Team   Why you'll love the Clarins Purifying Toning Lotion: Perfect for oily and combination skin. Tones, hydrates and purifies the skin. Removes any remaining cleanser. Balances the skin's microbiota. Leaves skin soft, clean and shine-free. Lightweight lotion texture. Alcohol-free.   Why it's Escentual: We love how light and refreshing Clarins' purifying toner is; it has a pleasant, fruity-floral scent and a weightless liquid feel that helps your skin feel fresh and cleansed after. But what's beneath the surface of this toning lotion? Meadowsweet and witch hazel are featured to purify skin, reduce shine, ease the look of pores and brighten the complexion, while Clarins' iconic Microbiote Complex helps balance the skin's microbiota. This toner is a real multitasker!   The best way to use it: After cleansing, moisten two cotton pads with the Toning Lotion and sweep gently across the face and neck.   Values: Colourant-free, alcohol-free.

I used this for years, tried others at times which dried out my skin, even though it's combination. So it's back to Clarins. It has a lovely fragrance, and leaves my skin feeling fresh and clean without drying it out. I use it after the Gentle Foaming Cleanser for normal/combi skin, and the results are excellent.

This really is a 'one step wonder'. It's gentle enough to use on a daily basis, but effective enough as an exfoliator. It leaves my skin soft and smooth, but doesn't dry it out like some similar products. It also has a lovely fragrance, and is easy to use. It's competitively priced as well, and I received it the day after I ordered it. Can't get any quicker than that.

 Clarins Vital Light Night - All Skin Types 50ml
Clarins Vital Light Night - All Skin Types 50ml
Clarins Vital Light Night is the second stage to the Vital Light anti-aging skin care regimen, helping to boost microcirculation of all skin types throughout the night at a time when the body regenerates and recharges itself. This boosting process maximises its revitalising benefits, so that smoother, firmer and more luminous skin is discovered upon waking. This diligent cream aims to recapture a woman's natural luminosity and a healthy glow that otherwise tends to fade with time. Clarins Research has combed the earth in order to find hardworking, healing botanicals that are effective in rediscovering a woman's inner luminosity. The answer, they found, was in the revitalising properties of 'pioneer plants', botanicals that revive and replenish dull skin and restore firmness. Clarins know that as skin ages, women want to look as luminous as they feel. Vital Light is the daily answer for mature skin, formulated in order to deeply revive skin and recapture youthful-looking firmness, however old you are. Apply to face and neck using the palms of the hands, working gradually from the centre of the face outwards. Complete with light, pressing movements to encourage product absorption without pulling skin.

I've used countless night creams in the past, and this one comes out very near the top (compared to some no longer on the market) It's light, not greasy, absorbs well and has a nice light fragrance. My skin is left feeling smooth and soft. And a good price on here too.

This is a lovely eye product. It's a lightweight cream-gel that isn't heavy or greasy, goes on smoothly and absorbs well. I've noticed a difference in the texture around my eyes after only having used it for about 2 weeks. Used underneath brightener/concealer etc it's brilliant, but I do need something a little richer at night though. The pump is fine, but does need to be pressed lightly, as I find it dispenses more than I need. Other than that an excellent product.

 Clarins Vital Light Serum 30ml
Clarins Vital Light Serum 30ml
A super-charged serum that perfects the skin tone and restores lost luminosity. Clarins Vital Light Serum repairs, smoothes and soothes the skin with the power of pioneer plants. It works to fade skin pigmentation, plump lines, and brighten an age-induced dull skintone with a wealth of extraordinary ingredients. A potent dose of Hexylresorcinol - an ingredient that is as effective as a leading medically prescribed ingredient without the risk of skin irritation - intervenes in the process of melanin production which forms dark spots. Added Red Sandsburry extract reinforces the effectiveness of the Hexylresorcinol, while Katafray Bark and Cangzhu Root Extract boosts the skin's renewal and its collagen production. Added Scurvy Grass protects collagen fibres from oxidation, and Sleeping Morning helps to stimulate the elimination of old oxidised collagen. Apply the fresh fluid gel underneath your usual day or night cream. Begin by dispensing three to four pumps in the palm of one hand, and warm between your both palms. Massage lightly over the entire face, neck and décolleté, but avoid the delicate eye area. Hexylresorcinol corrects dark spots Katafray Bark and Cangzhu Root boosts skin renewal Scurvy Grass protects collagen fibres

I was given a weeks supply of Vital Light Serum, and love it. My skin looks and feels smoother and softer. I'm not 100% sure about fading pigmentation marks though, because I'm a real freckle face and have been since a child. But used with the Vital Light day and night creams, my skin certainly has improved. A real luxury product. Just need Clarins to bring out a Vital Light Eye serum/cream to make up the set.
