We all try to get those 8 hours of rest each night, but unfortunately for most of us those 8 hours seem to be a luxury that happens only on occasion. With our busy daily lives of work, family, and some hours for play, it’s hard for most people to squeeze in even the bare minimum of 6 hours of sleep at night! Not only does this leave us feeling fatigued, but it also leaves us looking fatigued as well.
The good news is that we can invigorate our skin just as we can invigorate our minds with some of the fantastic products on the market today. One of the favorites is Clarins “Beauty Flash Balm”. This product claims to be the “ideal beauty pick-me-up to erase signs of fatigue and/or stress” – and that couldn’t be more true! The Beauty Flash Balm goes right to work upon application to tighten our skin (which reduces those wrinkles and fine lines) and improve our complexion, making it more radiant and healthy looking. Some users have even reported a reduction of under eye circles upon using this product.
What Ingredients are In this Product?
This product surprisingly has a lot of natural extracts in it. Algae is one of the leading ingredients in the Beauty Flash Balm. Algae’s purpose is to enliven the skin and to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Olive extracts are also infused into this rich, light weight balm. These extracts work on moisturizing your skin, while also healing and toning it, giving it that tightened, firmer appearance.
Bisabolol is the ingredient that allows those with sensitive skin to use this product, as it is an anti-irritant, anti-inflammatory agent, and it is also antibacterial so you know that this product is clean and leaving your skin healthier.
Witch hazel works as an astringent, reducing the appearance of pores and blackheads, and it also strengthens the veins under the skin. This is what also reduces those dark under eye circles.
Lastly, rice starch is in the Beauty flash Balm. The rice helps absorb the products in the balm, and leaves your skin with a matte, non-shiny appearance.
How is this Product Used?
The Beauty Flash Balm does come in a rather small tube, being only 1.7 ounces (or 50ml) of cream in each tube. Don’t be fooled by the small packaging, however; a little bit goes a long way with this product. A thin layer is applied to your entire face (be sure not to rub it in, just coat your face lightly with the balm) and then apply your make up.
TIP: If you have dry skin, you can also apply your regular moisturizer before using the balm.
You can also enjoy a more intensive treatment by applying a thicker layer of the balm after cleaning your face at night and then leaving it on for up to 15 minutes. Simply remove the excess balm with a tissue, and enjoy your new, refreshed face!
Though you certainly need not use this product every day, on those occasions when you just need that little “pick-me-up” as described on the package, the Clarins Beauty Flash Balm is the way to go.
