Ciara : Clarins Fluide Eclat du Jour

I have three basic requirements for a moisturizer:

1.) It should be hypo-allergenic.
2.) It should be hypo-allergenic.
3.) It should be hypo-allergenic.


I have used Boots N07 moisturiser over the summer and finished the bottle two days ago. So yesterday I made a trip to Sephora to look for a new one since winter is here and I need to adapt my skincare regimen ;). I was planning to try Philosophy's Hope in a Jar. Unfortunately the branch I went to doesn't have it. Being the impatient person that I am, I looked for other options. I had my eye on Chanel or Lancome, but the sales lady told me that Clarins is more recommended for Asian skin. After a few minutes of question and answer portion, I finally gave in and she also gave me some freebies!

 
Clarins Pore Minimizing Serum, Mattifier, Moisturiser (AED 130.00) and Foaming Cleanser
(the small ones were the freebies)




Clarins Fluide Eclat du Jour (Moisturiser) 


I've been using the moisturiser for 2 days in a row now and can I just say that I love the scent? I'm so used to unscented and colourless products so this is quite a change :) I haven't had any reactions so far. Sadly I am not friends with the foaming cleanser, last night I washed my face with it and it became an unsightly shade of red. Next week I will give the pore minimising serum and the mattifier a road test, till then!
