DIY: ClarinsMEN 30-Day Trial - Quick Review


So a week or so back I received the above package from Pippa at Clarins ZA. Was so stoked about the opportunity to test drive new product for men and to see if it could stand the test of human nature.

Now first-off, this is not the final review. My 30 days are not yet over. But I must quickly mention, being black i.e. having skin with a darker pigmentation than most, the product has yet to completely dry out my skin. In fact, it hasn't dried out my skin yet.

In the beginning, I was doing everything accordingly, washing my face twice, morning and evening, and only applying the eye balm in the evenings. However, in-between all the excitement, work and life in general, I found myself missing a few evening washes, I must admit. Also, I found myself applying the eye balm in the mornings instead of the evenings.

Regardless, the ClarinsMEN products I've received have held up their end of the bargain. I'm moisturised for the entire duration of the day. My eyes are not puffy and the lines have seemed to become less of an issue than before.

One little surprise I have to share, before we close this chapter of this quick review: the bags under my eyes disappear almost immediately after applying the eye balm the mornings after sleeping at 2AM and waking up at 6AM to start yet another day of fashionable living.

So, ClarinsMEN has been well behaved so far. Let's see how it fairs for the rest of the trial period.
