Beauty In A Flash

A superhero in a tube

When I use  Clarins Beauty Flash Balm I feel like the Queen song, Flash, should be played. Flash a-ah Savior of the Universe , Flash, He save everyone of us , Flash, He's a miracle. It really is a superhero in a tube. It's supposed to brighten and tighten and it really does.

Whenever I look wrecked, which generally is every morning, I pop this little miracle worker on before  putting on my make-up. The second I put it on I feel better and to boost look better. A little goes a long way with this. Too much and your foundation and powders will clump. Apply a thin layer over your face, neck and décolleté (I love using that word) and resist the urge to rub in. As well as giving your skin a lift your make-up will last longer.

Beauty Flash Balm also makes a great face mask. I like to use it after cleansing and exfoliating. Leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes, remove the excess with a little toner and hey presto you're skin will be smoother, brighter and more radiant. You may have to wear sunglasses to look at yourself in the mirror.It is scented, but not overpowering. In fact it's a smell I've grown to love as I know I'll look better after putting it on. 

It's 50mls and around €35. My last tube lasted me over 7 months so you do get your value out of it. If you're heading abroad it's usually cheaper in the duty free. Keep an eye out for the Christmas gift sets too, these are usually great value. It's been repackaged over the past few months and now comes in a thinner and longer tube.
