Clarins beauty resolutions for 2010!

– Swipe on a flavoured lip gloss: Head to your favourite Clarins counter and pick out a new pout polish! Choosing one with a flavor love you love will make you feel more positive!
– Ravish in red: Red lipstick is associated with parties and nights out, which can evoke memories of fun times, plus it’s just so sexy and the reaction from others will put a smile on your face.
– Fake a tan and soak up the sun: It’s no secret you feel most sizzling in the summer, with a bronzed bod you are literally looking hot! Take a walk outdoors to soak in the mood enhancing chemicals from the sun and all that Vitamin D. Just remember the sun screen.
– Wash with zest: Through orange juice and cleaning product ads, we have learned that the smell of citrus leaves you refreshed and uplifts your feelings! Use a citrus body wash or cleanser to start the day smiling. Try Clarins One-step cleansers with orange extract!
– Get gorgeous: Visit your nearest Clarins counter and ask for a mini-makeover, which will lift your spirits and since you are learning from their expertise you may walk away with some new tricks to use your own make-up or even a new addition to your range.
– Take a decadent dip: Bubble baths are bona fide stress busters! You can just empty your mind and relax in your tub! Try out the Clarins Relax Aroma-phyto care range to hit just the right note.
– Give yourself a glow: If your skin is looking lackluster, stress could be to blame! When you are stressed your body restricts blood flow to the skin and this makes it appear washed out. For a quick fix, slough off the dead skin cells from your face and body with a scrub. This will leave you looking radiant. Try the Clarins Gentle Facial Peel or Gentle Facial Refiner and the Smoothing Body Scrub for a new skin.
– Be pampered by a pro: There is almost nothing more mood enhancing than a trip to the spa. Get a facial or massage, sit back relax and let someone do the work for you. Or just pop to the hairdressers for a quick blow dry for an instant quick fix solution!
– Primp in the pm: If you know you have a busy day coming up, try blow drying your hair the night before. Or give yourself a radiance boosting facial mask or even just a quick touch up to your nail colour. Rather than feeling rushed in the morning you will wake up feeling fresh and ready to go. Use those few extra minutes in the morning to have a lie in or hot chocolate to get you ready for the day.
– Go on a beauty binge! Every girl knows that shopping is the ultimate cure! Treat yourself to something new!
– Repeat your greatest hits: We all have a million pictures tagged on Facebook. It’s time to do some serious clicking and hunt for the photo you look best in.
Make an effort to recreate this look.
– Clean your cellphone: Ever notice one side of your face is more bumpy than the other. That could be from the bacteria on your cellphone. Give your phone a good wipe down to try to help!
– Don’t buy moisturiser without SPF: All year round! If you skip the protection you can end up looking older than you are!
– Try a beauty dare once a month: It’s liberating and can help you revive your look, surprise your man or unleash inner beauty diva! Try this once every few weeks.
– Upgrade your regimen: Maybe you’ve been using the same moisturiser since forever.
 But now you need to find something to suit your skin type and age. Not to mention an eye cream. Set aside some time to figure out what you should do and put your plan into action.
– Put a cap on your bad habits: We all have our vices. But that doesn’t make them okay. Especially if you want to look your best. Smoking leads to wrinkles, heavy drinking dehydrates your skin…not that I am lecturing you!
– Stop picking: Your cuticles, the mascara off your eyelashes, your zits. Whatever it is you feel the need to itch or pick…Don’t. Keep your hands off!
– Get your beauty sleep: Like you need to hear this? But still worth saying as sleepless nights can wreak havoc on your health and appearance. Try an eye mask if you need help shutting the world out.
Here’s to a beautiful 2010!
