How to Visibly Firm Skin to Improve the Overall Appearance of the Body

While lifestyle, age, and gravity take a toll on our skin’s firmness and elasticity over time, our skin experts have created the ultimate targeted firming cream to help you achieve your best-looking skin through every phase of life.

Clarins will always select a natural ingredient over a synthetic one if it delivers the same level of effectiveness. This is the golden rule followed by all researchers when designing our innovative new products. Each of the 208 natural plant extracts used in Clarins formulas is carefully selected for its effectiveness and is delivered in an optimal formula to reveal the beauty of every woman. Each ingredient is sourced with the greatest care for the environment to protect our planet’s biodiversity.

Clarins’ best firming body lotion and cream are no exception.

Body firming cream or lotion – which is best?

While a body lotion is ideal for all skin types and delivers the same results or effect, you may want to use a richer-textured cream in colder weather when skin tends to get drier or if you have a dry skin type. A lightweight lotion on the other hand is perfect for hotter weather or combination and oily skin types.

The rich, velvety formula of Extra-Firming Body Cream aids in moisturizing the skin to smooth away the appearance of lines and skin slackening. No less than eight plant extracts have been used in this firming cream to help restore the skin's youthful-looking density and elasticity. Active ingredient Lemon Thyme in its cosmetic form can help to prevent the appearance of skin slackening, while Shea derived from the African Shea tree is exceptionally rich in unsaponifiables—the most precious part of antioxidant-rich vegetable oils. Your skin is soft and satin-smooth to the touch and appears supple with natural-looking firmness.

For a fresh, lightweight lotion, try Extra-Firming Body Lotion that is readily absorbed to instantly and visibly soften, comfort and soothe. Active ingredient Centella Asiatica is famous for its restoring and soothing actions, while Bocoa, or “ironwood” is a tree from the Amazonian rainforest known for its long life and exceptionally resistant wood—along with its fortifying and energizing benefits. Clarins best firming body lotion is designed to comfort and refresh both the skin and senses, and helps to promote visibly supple, youthful-looking skin.

The perfect body firming routine

Once you’ve chosen your best cream for cellulite and firming, boost your results by exfoliating once or twice a week. Regular use of a body scrub will help optimize the action of the products you apply afterwards. Try a Clarins skin-smoothing exfoliator to gently slough away dead skin cells.

In addition, Clarins Body Fit has many helpful online tips and tutorials, to help you keep your body visibly firm and supple in every season!
