Which anti-wrinkle cream is right for me?

Every facial product solves a specific issue that women encounter during their lives. Age-defying serums, anti-wrinkle creams, eye creams, oils and lotions bursting with botanical extracts.

Which anti-wrinkle cream is best for my skin?

It's important to choose the most appropriate anti-wrinkle cream for your age and lifestyle to achieve optimum results. Regardless of your age and skin type, every Clarins anti-wrinkle treatment range gives your skin the hydration, firmness, density and radiance it lacks. An often overlooked part of anti-ageing skincare is learning how to apply your anti-wrinkle cream properly as this will allow your skin to better absorb all of its benefits.

Clarins has been developing anti-wrinkle and age-defying skincare products for over 70 years by unlocking the powers of plant extracts from every corner of the world. Read on to discover which ones are best for your skin and how to best apply them.

What should I look out for when choosing an age-defying cream for my skin concern?

Concern: "I have dark spots"

Dark spots can appear throughout the natural ageing process and can develop as a result of overexposure to the sun's harmful rays. To reduce their appearance, even out your skin tone and leave your complexion with a healthy glow try our Bright Plus Dark Spot-Targeting Gel Cream for a more youthful look.

Concern: "I lack firmness"

To help increase firmness, Clarins Skincare Experts suggest using products from the Extra-Firming skin range. The Extra-Firming Day Cream is an age-defying moisturiser that puts the spring back into your skin. It contains collagen polypeptide, pecan tree extract and organic mitracarpus extract, a powerful trio of pro-collagen key ingredients that help fight loss of firmness.

Concern: "I have wrinkles"

If you're looking for a cream to reduce wrinkles, Clarins has a solution for every age. To target the first signs of wrinkles, we recommend the Multi-Active range with teasel extract*. For more mature skin, there's the Extra-Firming range, which reduces the appearance of age-related wrinkles, fine lines, and crow's feet. As you age, the skin loses density and is weaker. Help to restore it with the Super Restorative range, which contains fair trade organic harungana extract to help smooth skin and restore vitality.

Concern: "I have fine lines"

For fine lines around the eyes like crow's feet, a targeted eye cream is the solution. Total Eye Lift has a lifting effect and smooths out fine lines, wrinkles and crow's feet as well as replenishing skin around the eyes. Alternatively, if you also suffer from dark circles and puffiness around the eyes, Total Eye Revive expert eye care targets fine lines while reducing signs of fatigue with the help of its cryo-metallic tip.

What is Clarins' best anti-wrinkle cream for the first signs of wrinkles?

Pollution, sun and stress all contribute to the appearance of wrinkles.

Like signs of the passing of time, they furrow your forehead, form ridges, appear on your neck and around the lips, and line the area around your eyes. Starting at the age of 30, choose an age-defying cream or a targeted skincare routine to age gracefully.

To reduce the first signs of wrinkles – the results of a hectic lifestyle, long bouts of stress and fatigue, and not getting enough sleep – we created the Multi-Active range of anti-wrinkle creams with teasel extract*. 

Day and night, this range protects your skin’s youthful appearance by hydrating it and helping it fight off the appearance of new wrinkles and fine lines.

Our Multi-Active day creams come in a variety of formulas to suit all skin types and to slot into your morning and evening skincare routine. They boost your skin’s natural radiance, for a healthy glow and rested appearance.

For women who want to protect their skin from UV, this day cream comes in a formula with SPF 15. Our Multi-Active Day Cream is also available in formulas suitable for all and dry skin types. Our Night Cream is available in formulas suitable for dry skin types and all skin types.

Finish off your hydrating routine with Total Eye Revive to moisturise and relax this delicate area of the face, and reduce the appearance of premature ageing. This eye cream helps fight wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness and signs of fatigue in the blink of an eye! Beauty advice: make your youthful looks last as long as possible by applying Double Serum every day before your Multi-Active cream. A cocktail of botanical active ingredients and carefully selected plant extracts that nourish your skin with vitamins, boost radiance and even skin tone.

What is Clarins' best anti-wrinkle cream for more mature skin?

Our Extra-Firming range fights signs of ageing such as crow's feet, wrinkles and less well-defined facial features.

Our Extra-Firming Day Cream uses a formula with a powerful trio of pro-collagen key ingredients, including organic mitracarpus extract, that help fight loss of firmness. Our Extra-Firming creams are available in formulas for dry skin types, and also comes in a protective SPF15 version. This age-defying action visibly regenerates your features by reducing the appearance of wrinkles and resculpting the face. Your complexion comes alive with a boost of radiance and your youthful tone is restored!

We recommend pairing the Extra-Firming line with our new Extra-Firming Energy, for women whose primary concern is a lack of radiance and a dull complexion. A vitamin blast for the skin with goji berry extract, plus firming and anti-wrinkle action to boot!

When menopause-related hormonal changes start upsetting the density and radiance balance, your weakened skin needs our Super Restorative range to compensate for this loss. Formulated with fair trade organic harungana extract that helps promote collagen synthesis for firmer skin, our range for the face, visibly reduces wrinkles, provides a lifting effect and fights signs of ageing.

If you're searching for a good moisturiser for more mature skin, Super Restorative Day and Night Cream are a powerful remedy that replenishes your skin. Our Super Restorative Day Creams (as well as the corresponding night creams) are also available with SPF15 and in formulas to suit all skin types, even very dry skin.

To visibly resculpt and redefine the facial contours and shape of the face, apply Super Restorative Remodelling Serum before your moisturiser.

To make your skin glow, apply Rose Radiance Cream for an illuminated, rosy complexion.

Which Clarins innovation restores radiance to mature skin?

With age, three aspects of radiance disappear:

● Luminosity

● An even-toned complexion

● A healthy glow and dark spots appear that dull the skin

Hormonal changes affect the proper functioning of the micronutrient system of the epidermis and trigger this loss of luminosity. As we age, the fibroblast weakens and is subject to pigmentation issues, dryness and a dull complexion.

To counteract this lack of lipids, hydration and suppleness, whilst restoring your glow, only a nutrient-rich expert daily skincare routine can repair this delicate skin. To meet the needs of mature women, we created the new exceptional Nutri-Lumière skincare line. These products contain our pro-ageing innovative skin nutrition, specially developed for undernourished skin. With a powerful active ingredient duo from the Horse Chestnut Tree, this range restores luminosity and leaves skin revitalised, hydrated and radiant. A product of our Clarins Laboratories’ expertise, this invigorating duo nourishes the skin and restores its radiance.

Apply the Nutri-Lumière Day Emulsion in the morning before the Nutri-Lumière Day Cream – or try Nutri-Lumiere Revive for an immediate beautifying effect – then finish with an SPF.

Organic leaf of life extract helps to reactivate the skin’s capacity for self-hydration and the natural production of hyaluronic acid. Your skin is more nourished and becomes supple, revitalised, glowing and radiant once more.

How do you increase the efficiency of age-defying skincare?

To increase the efficiency of age-defying skincare, we recommend starting a preventative skincare routine at 25.

Apply Double Serum before your moisturiser or facial oil for a more radiant, firmer complexion. It has a unique hydrolipidic and biomimetic double formula with revitalizing power.

This powerhouse of skincare technology combines the properties of 21 botanical extracts blended with turmeric extract to minimise visible signs of ageing.

Organic leaf of life extract helps boost hydration and the natural production of hyaluronic acid. Banana leaf extract helps promote collagen synthesis.

A few drops of this age-defying nectar every day are all you need for skin that glows with beauty as it looks smoothed and wrinkles are visibly faded.

Choose your anti-wrinkle skincare cream to suit your age and skin type. That's the most important rule!

Our age-defying skincare offers a wide range of targeted products for every skin type. Here's a checklist of steps to take to create an age-defying anti-wrinkle routine for healthy skin at any age:

1. The day or night creams comfort all skin types, even the most sensitive, with luxuriously creamy textures and a natural, delicate fragrance. The botanical extracts are selected to nourish skin with a carefully formulated and targeted treatment.

2. Using an age-defying lotion or special serum makes these products even more effective. Anyone who enjoys a sensory experience will love applying our facial oils. In a range to suit all skin types, our oils deliver all the essential ingredients for healthy, glowing skin. Concentrated in organic active ingredients, they hydrate, revitalise or invigorate your skin.

3. Supplement this age-defying routine by remembering to care for the eyes with an eye care product that targets dark circles and under-eye bags to restore a youthful, bright-eyed look!

4. One last piece of advice: always apply your skincare products on clean skin that has been cleansed of all impurities and traces of make-up. Exfoliate and slough off dead skin cells once or twice a week with a scrub or exfoliating treatment specially made for the face.

5. Then take the time to apply a face mask to maximise the hydrating and age-defying effects of your skincare routine. Take your pick from the SOS Comfort Face Mask or SOS Pure Face Mask depending on your skin type.
