Master Clarins’ Art of Touch Application Methods

Yes. An at-home facial massage is an effective way to improve your skin's health and beauty by helping to reduce facial tension, a common cause of wrinkles and fine lines.

The Application Method involves using your hands to gently massage the face by using various motions—including tapping, stroking, and kneading—to boost skin’s circulation and radiance.

By incorporating a facial massage into your daily skincare routine, you can directly improve the appearance of your skin, resulting in a more vibrant, youthful-looking complexion.

A facial massage uses hand gestures, pressure, stroking, and massage techniques to enhance skin’s elasticity—reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, while promoting a radiant complexion. A facial massage also offers relaxation and stress relief, contributing to overall well-being.

Traditional product application techniques involve applying skincare using fingertips, brushes, or tools without deliberate massage motions. The focus is on the even distribution and absorption of the products rather than visibly lifting, firming, and toning the skin.

Product application techniques include warming creams, oils and serums between your palms to enhance their absorption, and applying using upward and outward motions. Learn more here. 

Having a targeted skincare routine is vital to fending off the visible signs of aging.

Start by cleansing the skin with La Mousse Douce Nettoyante to gently remove make-up, sunscreen, pollutants, excess oils, and debris—resulting in skin that is soft, smooth, moisturized and refined.

Follow with La Lotion to hydrate, soften, and refresh skin texture.

Tailor your routine for day and night use. A lighter formulation, like Le Sérum, is ideal for daytime, while a richer product like L’Huile en Sérum should be used at night to revitalize, replenish and renew skin while you sleep.

The benefits of Clarins Precious formulas improve with consistent daily and nightly use.
