Wrinkles may be inevitable, but I want to get as few as possible. I drink lots of water, I try to keep my face clean, I have an assortment of lotions and anti-wrinkle potions in my bathroom and I use sunscreen with a high SPF everyday. I don't know how much good any of this is going to do for me, but I stick with it because it's all I can do. There's always a little comfort to be taken in the knowledge that you did all you could, right?
I have my core brands that I stick with, but I'm not opposed to trying something new, in this case the
Clarins Multi-Active Day Cream. I love it! It has a nice light texture without being too runny, and my skin feels so alive after I apply it. It kinda smells like AquaNet hairspray, but I can overlook that because I like how it feels and the ingredients are intriguing to me: it has antioxidants and a plant extract from Madagascar that's supposed to support your dermal repair function. Who knows if it's all necessary, but it sounds interesting!
The biggest downside to it that I see is the lack of SPF. Almost all day creams have that component now, so I see that as something that would keep me from continuing to use it for daytime moisturizer. I'm not interested in applying a second cream to get my sun protection. So I might switch to the night cream formula, after I finish my current night creams because I really did like my first exposure to using Clarins.
