Clarins Beauty Haul ~ Exfoliating Body Scrub ~ Moisture Rich Body Lotion ~ Hand and Nail Treatment Cream & More!

Clarins are a brand that I use intermittently. I go through phases where I don't use their products for a few months, then after that, I need them back in my life! I do think it's good to change up your skincare products now and again because I sometimes find that my skin becomes "used" to the products and they just don't seem to make a difference as before. 

So today, I wanted to share with you my Clarins mini haul and the lovely bag that came with all these gorgeous products and was exclusive to Selfridges in London.

  Exfoliating Body Scrub (100ml)

What can I say? This body scrub is lush! The tiny granules really do get rid of any flaky dead skin revealing lovely smooth soft skin. You can apply the scrub to damp or wet skin. When you massage the scrub into your skin, it feels quite coarse which in my book is good! That way at least I know it's doing its job. I love body scrubs and I must say, this is up there with my favourites. I usually exfoliate twice a week which is in line with what Clarins recommend. 

100ml retails at around £14.50.

 Moisture Rich Body Lotion (100ml)

Another one of my favourite products from their range! If you fancy a rich body lotion that isn't too greasy,, then it is worth adding this to your skincare collection. It is formulated for "dry to very dry skin" and contains Shea, Peach Milk, Orange Blossom and Candlenut Oil. It is quickly absorbed into your skin but still leaves your skin with a lovely glow (I like to call it "the mousturised look"). I use it immediately after I get out of the shower so that it can really absorb into my skin. It also has a lovely smell which isn't overpowering.

  

200ml retails at around £30.

Hand and Nail Treatment Cream (100ml)

This cream is formulated to "soften, protect, hydrate and strengthen nails". Once again this is another rich cream and it's perfect for this horrible cold weather we've been having when your hands get dry so easily. I have been using it continuously and my hands have thanked me for it. You don't need to use much in one go, a little really does go a long way. It also has a lovely scent (as do the majority of all Clarins beauty products). This cream makes your skin feel soft without feeling oily or coated. 

100ml retails at £20.

Relax Bath & Shower Concentrate (100ml)

I do like this product. If you're in need or some rest and relaxation, then a few drops of this in your bath under warm (I like it hot) running water would be a way to start. It contains "soothing, aromatic virtues of Basil, Camomile and Petit Grain". Initially when I first smelt it, it was quite strong and I wasn't sure if I would like it or not. But once it's diluted with water, I think the aroma is very pleasing and not overpowering. If you do not wish to use it in a bath, then in the shower, massage the Concentrate over the body with a sponge. It lathers up quite nicely.

200ml retails at £18.

Makeup Palette ~ 16 Pink Frost & 23 Silver Green

This cute little palette was contained as part of the offer. It has two gorgeous eyeshadows and a blush in Rose Wood. It is only a mini sample size but it's perfect to carry around in your makeup bag.

Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector

Once again this was also in the offer. I hadn't tried this product from Clarins before. It promises that your lips will feel "soft, smooth, shiny and plump". My lips did feel soft and shiny but didn't notice much else. I do like it though. The only thing is that the colour isn't the best shade for my skintone. So I will choose a different colour from their range (six shades in total). The one below is in 03 Nude Shimmer.

12ml retails at £18. Bare in mind though that the picture above is a mini size (5ml).

So all in all, I am totally impressed with this beauty haul. All these products came in the gorgeous red and white bag which will be perfect for lugging all my beauty products on holiday. Now wait for it....all this was available at Selfridges for £20!!! Yes you read that correctly! Now if that isn't a bargain, then I don't know what is!!

Have you tried any of these products from Clarins? Which is your favourite?
