‘It’s a fact with Clarins in the sun, life is more beautiful.’

 It damages the skin and causes wrinkles and premature aging.  This is why Clarins has created an exceptional sun care range to protect our face and body, a child’s fragile skin and a men’s skin against its harmful effects. 
Clarins Plant Innovation
Clarins sun care treatments contain plant extracts which moisturize, repair and soften skin, to leave it satin smooth and beautiful.

 SPF is not enough
Sun Protection Factor (SPF) means a products ability to stop your skin from burning. 
The higher the number of the SPF the longer you can stay in the sun before burning. 
The SPF protects against sunburn but not skin dehydration, premature aging or cellular damage which can have serious consequences. 
So, along with the best UVB-UVA sun filters which resist the sun’s heat and rays, Clarins has added a Multi Cellular Protection.
Phytosanctyle 2 is an exclusive plant complex present in Clarins protective sun care products.  This complex protects all skin cells and their genetic makeup and protects the skin from premature aging.
The sun and
your skin
Protective sun products are the most important of all your beauty products. Tanning is a natural, protective reaction of the skin to the sun and occurs progressively.
Due to thinning of the ozone layer and our tendency to concentrate exposure to the sun to limited holiday periods, this natural protection is no longer sufficient.  So protective sun products are essential. 
However, using them does not mean spending longer in the sun!  It’s easy to enjoy the sun and stay safe.  Follow a few simple rules and you can have a beautiful tan while on holiday and healthy skin for years after.
Choose the right SPF
Your skin is fair, fragile or sensitive you should use SPF 30 throughout your holiday, as should children and elderly.
Clarins Sun Care Cream High Protection for children SPF 30 is perfect for children, is resistant to water, perspiration and protects from salt. Sun Care Cream High Protection SPF 30 is the ideal sun cream for adults with sensitive skin in the strong sun.
Your skin is fair to medium and tans
SPF 20 is suitable for your skin. 
However, during the first few days of your holiday, particularly if you have not been in the sun for a long time or if the sun is strong use SPF 30 and then switch to SPF 20.  Clarins Sun Care Soothing Cream Progressive Tanning SPF 20 is the perfect sun care cream for you.
Very dark to
 blackskin
Your skin tans easily but for a safe healthy tan, protect it with SPF 8 sun product. We would recommend the Sun Care Cooling Gel Rapid Tanning SPF 8 and Sun Care Spray Intensive Tanning SPF 4 both intensify already tanned skin while providing essential protection in fresh, light weight textures.
After sun-bathing time for soothing!

How to apply a self tanner
1. Exfoliate the face and body a day or so in advance (with Gentle Exfoliating Refiner for the face, Smoothing Body Scrub for a New Skin for the body).
2. Apply your self tanner in small amounts, with light smoothing strokes and palms flat against the skin (or with a cotton pad when using Liquid Bronze or Intense Bronze Self Tanning Tint) avoid the eyebrows and hairline on the face.
3. Always apply very lightly over elbows, knees, ankles and heels.
4. After application, wash hands and nails thoroughly.  Wait a few minutes before getting dressed.
5. For a darker tanned result, apply the self tanner again later in the day.  To maintain a more beautiful, radiant tan, reapply your self tanner every 3 days and gently exfoliate skin once a week before application.
