Guide Review - Clarins: UV Plus Day Screen
Clarins UV Plus Day Screen is getting a lot of attention these days. Given top awards from Allure, In Style, Sephora and SELF Magazine, you can be pretty sure you'll love this sunscreen.
This mineral based sunscreen has such a lightweight texture; you'll be amazed and just how fast it soaks into your skin. The texture of this sunscreen is almost more of a liquid than a cream. This is great for those of you who are unsure about sunscreen because you don't like to feel that "greasy" feeling. There is absolutely none of that with UV Plus Day Screen. This sunscreen has broad-band protection, which means that you'll be getting UVA and UVB protection in one application.
Clarins is known for its use of plant extracts in it's skincare products, and this product is no exception. It uses plant extracts to fight off pollution that you are exposed to on a daily basis. Pollution is one of "free radicals" you hear about that causes premature aging. Not only are you getting sun protection, you're getting free radical protection as well.
You can be rest assured that by purchasing this sunscreen you'll be purchasing from a company that does not test on animals and that uses no cellular extracts of animal origin whatsoever.
Clarins has been creating beauty products since 1954. They give back to the community by supporting organizations like Childhelp, whose founders were the recipients of their 2008 Dynamic Woman Award.
