Clarins
Clarins sees sustainable development as an opportunity to pioneer pressing issues, initiate new rules and practices, set forth new challenges, and commit itself with conviction and generosity. Clarins truly believes in progress and in our ability to find clever solutions for a desirable and viable future for all. In a world of well-intentioned words, Clarins wants to be among those who act.
Trailblazers in the field of plant-based beauty, Clarins recognizes visionaries and supports them. Awarded just three times since 2004—the ClarinsMen Environment Award encourages innovation, and has honored the initiative of Jean-Pierre Nicolas (2004 award winner) and his association Jardins du Monde, which aims to “save plants to save lives”; that of Bertrand Piccard (2010 award winner) with his Solar Impulse, a plane powered solely by solar energy; and that of Roland Jourdain (2013 award winner) who, with his Explore Foundation, supports bold pioneers and searches for the plant-based materials of the future.
Open formulas keep Clarins at the forefront of innovation.
Clarins’ pioneering formulas are continually being reinvented as plant science and technology advance—a process known as Permanent Innovation, and a practical expression of the founders motto:
“Do more, do better and enjoy doing so.”
Even if a product is a best seller, the formula will be enriched and enhanced to deliver more quality, sensorial pleasure and beauty.
The most emblematic example of this approach is Double Serum, created in 1985—the first double-phase (hydric + lipidic) serum formulated to help boost the skin’s five vital functions (hydration, nourishment, oxygenation, prevention and protection) essential to maintaining the skin’s youthful appearance.
This classic formula has been revisited for the seventh time and is a favorite of millions of consumers worldwide. More than 100 international press awards crown its success.
